Title: Favorite Alt-VP Bracket
Post by: Moneymodel on April 07, 2016, 02:43:46 pm

Following liopoil's example, I've created a bracket for alt-VP cards! This includes all types of alternative strategies to Province/Colony. Scaling cards, fixed cards, and VP chip cards are all present here. An argument can be made that these types of cards shouldn't be compared to one another, but this was the way to make it 8, 16 or even 12 without making arbitrary decisions, like including Nobles and not Harem.

1. Goons
16. Great Hall

3. Bishop
14. Harem

5. Duke
12. Tunnel

7. Nobles
10. Silk Road

8. Fairgrounds
9. Gardens

6. Distant Lands
11. Island

4. Vineyard
13. Feodum

2. Monument
15. Farmland

I really wish there was a forum extension for polls of this type.

Anyway...

The seeding was a damn crime. Fairgrounds/Gardens r1? Monument as a 2?

I used Qvist's rankings as a starting point. Might be I could have messed with it a little more than I did.

I think almost every single one of these cards could have a chance of being part of my most favoritist among all Dominion cards. Really it's only Great Hall and Nobles that I'm indifferent towards and I haven't played enough with Distant Lands yet to have solid feelings about it.

1. Goons
16. Great Hall

3. Bishop
14. Harem

5. Duke
12. Tunnel

7. Nobles
10. Silk Road

8. Fairgrounds
9. Gardens

6. Distant Lands
11. Island

4. Vineyard
13. Feodum

2. Monument
15. Farmland

Picking Farmland over Monument pains me a little. Monument is so straightforward and always feels great to play (oh VP chips, how I love you). But Farmland has the potential for interesting tactical considerations and is just one of those cards that I always want to try interesting things with even if I know they're probably terrible.

Post by: Aleimon Thimble on April 07, 2016, 05:35:21 pm

1. Goons - 100+ VP, yes please
16. Great Hall

3. Bishop
14. Harem - I don't like Bishop, never been good with it

5. Duke
12. Tunnel - Gains you metric fucktons of gold

7. Nobles - The Necropolis option is meh, but a terminal draw card that's worth 2 points is pretty awesome
10. Silk Road

8. Fairgrounds
9. Gardens - The original Alt-VP, still awesome as ever

6. Distant Lands
11. Island - They're rather similar, but DL just exiles itself, Island is more flexible

4. Vineyard
13. Feodum - All those yummy combos. Masterpiece, Trader, Amulet, Raid...

2. Monument
15. Farmland - Both are not extremely interesting, but I played a game today with Contraband as the only +Buy where I used Farmland to circumvent the Province ban. So that was pretty cool. If I just played a KC/Monument game, I'd probably have voted Monument.

Fair enough. But looks like you have Distant Lands and Island voted, but neither Fairgrounds nor Gardens. I assume you choose Fairgrounds, but what about between the other two?

Alt-VP ! *o*

1. Goons
16. Great Hall - Goons is pretty clearly more interesting than GH but too strong

3. Bishop - Tfb are part of the most interesting cards in Dominion, and they are so fun…
14. Harem

5. Duke - Very tough choice but Duke usually enable more fun strategies
12. Tunnel

7. Nobles
10. Silk Road

8. Fairgrounds - Difficult choice.
9. Gardens

6. Distant Lands
11. Island - I feel an irrationnal love for Island

4. Vineyard
13. Feodum

2. Monument
15. Farmland - Juste love the tactical decisions this card adds to the game.

All right, I think I'll wrap this round up! I'm starting the count at 9:30, a specific time to avoid favoritism.

There were no ties this time, though there were some really tough battles. I didn't vote (my vote would have actually created a tie). Let's see what we have here:

1. Goons - 21
16. Great Hall - 8

3. Bishop - 26
14. Harem - 3
This was the biggest crushing out of all of them.

5. Duke - 15
12. Tunnel - 14

7. Nobles - 14
10. Silk Road - 15

8. Fairgrounds - 19
9. Gardens - 10

6. Distant Lands - 15
11. Island - 14

4. Vineyard - 20
13. Feodum - 9

2. Monument - 19
15. Farmland - 10

So despite some close ones, we have only one upset: Silk Road over Nobles.

Next post will be round two.

The thing is, this is the only Alt VP bracket, so it obviously has to be the favorite one.

It's also the one you hate the most.

1. Goons
3. Bishop
Goons is definitely stronger, but I enjoy playing Bishop much more

5. Duke
10. Silk Road
This was a tough one for me. I like the challenge of collecting victory cards for Silk Road without wrecking your deck, but fighting with your opponent for that Duke/Duchy supremacy is a lot of fun.

8. Fairgrounds
6. Distant Lands
For me, Fairgrounds was seeded much too low. So though I like Distant Lands, my favorite is Fairgrounds

4. Vineyard
2. Monument
I guess I like collecting things.

OK, let's put an end to the second round. The totals are:

1. Goons 15
3. Bishop 10

5. Duke 16
10. Silk Road 9

8. Fairgrounds 14
6. Distant Lands 11

4. Vineyard 20
2. Monument 5

So two upsets this time, Fairgrounds over Distant Lands and Vineyard over Monument. Though, it may easily be that the seeding was off with these, so they're not shocking upsets, I guess?

Now it gets really interesting...

1. Goons
5. Duke

8. Fairgrounds
4. Vineyard

Fewer votes this time around, but it's been two days now and the favorites seem fairly clear.

1. Goons - 17
5. Duke - 10

8. Fairgrounds - 9
4. Vineyard - 18

Final battle: seed 1 vs seed 4.

Goons, or Vineyard?

Vineyard. Goons might be my least favorite alt-vp card… and I usually prefer 100% green alt-vp, because most of them are vp depending on a certain type of card, which is one of my favorite things in Dominion. (Duke, you will stay forever in my heart)
