What it does

On reveal: +3 Power to the next card you play.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 4 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.

The site, in 2004

An independent Russian newspaper, known for investigative reporting, founded in Moscow in 1993 by former Komsomolskaya Pravda journalists.

Its editor Dmitry Muratov shared the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize. Six of its journalists, among them Anna Politkovskaya, have been murdered since 2000. In October 2026 it announced it would close on 9 November, citing pressure from the authorities.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
