can i just say that the poll is stupid? i voted no, because i think transfusion is worse than scout. but that's not what the TE said, i still think scout is the second worst card in the game.
yep the Poll is pretty senseless. I voted yes because Curse is worse than scout...

Btw. you mean Transmute? right? not Transfusion!
oh yea right. transmute. wasnt autocorrect.

Also having a Negative Statement in the question and then a yes no answer is pretty confusing.
isnt that something you do?

Would it help to make Scout a Victory card worth 0, so that it combos with itself? Would making it 1 VP be to strong?

So the theme of removing useless cards from future hands continues as Scout now removes itself from future hands???  ;)

Hello.  Name's Bruce.  It's all right.  I understand.  Why trust a shark, right?

Is quite curious - Who is the mystical "Celestial Chameleon"?

Im late to the discussion but omg take the duchess. I mean not always, but more than you do. She's free and your deck is not as good as you think it is.

Sorry to bring up ancient topics.

Though, sometimes this is also the reason why you shouldn't get the Duchess.

Just because it's free doesn't mean you should buy it. Take this hypothetical situation: you have $4 in your hand, and you play the Woodcutter. Of course, you'll then buy Gold, but you still have 1 buy and 0 coins. But will you buy a Curse or Copper? No, because it'll cloud up your deck, which is the reason they're free.

He's saying that duchess is usually better than nothing, and that if you think it isn't than you are likely overestimating how good your deck is.

He also doesn't say you should BUY the Duchess, but I think he rather meant gaining it off a Duchy.
The simple rule of thumb here is: You're buying Duchies, you're greening, some extra cash doesn't hurt.
