What it does

On reveal: -2 Power to the strongest enemy card here.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 9 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Tech cards bend the rules: more RAM, cheaper cards and patches that weaken the other side.

The site, in 2009

A Dutch service for sending large files to someone by email link.

Founded in Amsterdam in 2009. Its upload page sat in front of full-screen wallpapers, many of them adverts, with 30% of the space given to artists and causes. Bending Spoons bought it in 2024.

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.
