What it does
On reveal: +2 Power to the next card you play.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 3 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 2012
A Chinese news and content app from ByteDance whose name means Today's Headlines.
Its algorithm builds a personal feed from what you read and how you react. It had 120 million daily users by September 2017, and the same company went on to make TikTok.
Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
