What it does

On reveal: The first card you play next round costs 1 less.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

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

Commerce cards grow every round and make your opponent pay more to play.

The site, in 2002

A Chinese internet company and web portal in Beijing, whose businesses include the search engine Sogou and the online games firm ChangYou.

Its name means 'search fox'. In 1997 it took the name Sohoo as a nod to Yahoo, after its founder met Yahoo's Jerry Yang, then shortened it to Sohu. It listed on Nasdaq in 2000.

Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.

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