Trading post is the trasher that gives you all the treasure that you need. All you have to do is harness it.

I really like the can-do optimism here. It sounds like a quote from Mr. Miyagi or Yoda (though Trading Post is not as quick or seductive as the dark side).

The silver-in-hand ability of TP does add to its power. The trash for benefit is immediate and can help a ton early, maintaining buying power while thinning.

It's still rated too high.

I don't think Trading Post is this bad. It's good for money strats and it's not even that bad for engine strats because it removes a card from the deck (and it will usually replace bad cards with a better one).

It's only good for money if you can open with it. After that, it's kind of too late, as it will rarely even produce $2. And yeah, it's not bad for engines, but not that good either, unless there's cursing or something. I think it belongs down here, though I won't be disappointed if it's one of the next 2 cards to show up or something.

I agree. Trading Post always looks good at the beginning, but if you don't open 5/2, it is not usually worth the buy (unless there is cursing/ruining going on).  It should have shown up by now.

I want to give more love to Mystic. It s a great source of money in an engine and synergizes well with plenty of cards (especially with itself, Minion-style).  Once everyone gets a better handle on DA, we should see more love. 

And Rogue is way overrated.
