Almost everything here was important.  We both went for apothecary because it's great for getting early provinces for tournament.  I don't get the hands I'm looking for and my opponent gets a province turn 6, followers and another province turn 8, trusty steed turn 9.

So I switch into getting vineyards, using transmute and workshop to gain lots of cards, alchemist for draw and throne room for oompf.  The transmute was pretty useful, I got rid of 4 curses and hit copper with it a few times to end up with 7 transmutes (worth 12 vineyard points).  I gained 5 tournaments on my last turn to end the game, and that was the first time I pulled ahead.
