What it does
On reveal: +1 Power to your other cards here.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 5 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Social cards lift the cards around them, here and in the other lanes.
The site, in 2005
Taiwan's 'Nameless Little Site', a free community site with photo albums, blogs and guestbooks that began as a university bulletin board.
Jian Zhiyu started it in 1999 as a student at National Chiao Tung University. It had 200,000 members by 2004; Yahoo bought it for $22 million in 2007 and closed it on 26 December 2013.
In 2005: Left Taiwan's academic network in March, after heavy traffic crashed it for five days, and became a company with its own commercial address.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Dead Links: Gone, but not forgotten. Mostly forgotten.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 2005 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2005, then plays a short scene. Want Wretch in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
