Code: [Select]

Squire, Scrying Pool, Caravan Guard, Militia, Port, Lost City, Stash, Vault, Wharf, Witch
In this game there was clearly a big drawing engine available, but I felt it would be troubled by lack of trashing and presence of Witch.  I was handily crushed - did I make the wrong assessment or was it just that my Witches collided at the bottom of the shuffle, twice?  Additionally, were Caravan Guards a good idea?  I thought they would be handy between Witch and Pool.

I would play with both witch and sp.
Open militia, silver
Get witch and potion
Continue your big engine.
Vault makes this already good engine unskippable

Why can't you play both?

I was the opponent and i played witch + engine. Curses are not stoppers, uou can have even 7-3 and still draw your deck and vault it

This is an interesting one

Early game the goal is to hit 5 and not lose the curse split

I'd open Militia/Caravan Guard and then pick up a Witch on the first 5

Wharf is the next priority, with +Actions coming from Port and Lost City

A delayed potion plays well with the +Buy from Wharf and high action density of the deck
