What it does
On reveal: Enemy cards cost 2 more to play here.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 3 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 2008
A cloud communications company whose web tools let software make phone calls and send text messages, based in San Francisco.
Founded in 2008, it launched its voice service on 20 November 2008 and listed on the stock market in June 2016. It bought Authy, which made two-factor login, in 2015 and the email service SendGrid in 2019.
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.
