Just checked this thread now after only reading the OP, was curious if Bishop, my favorite trasher (and second favorite card overall), was still in it. Yeehaw!!
Oh... ahem, um...
Bishop
Butcher
EDIT:
Bishop is just so, so awesome. I love VP chips. But it's like, Goons is just too good and you almost always go for it no matter what. Monument is also good but pretty simple -- if there is low risk of terminal collision, it's almost always worth it, no questions asked. But Bishop, on the other hand, requires much more thinking. Should I try to thin & get VP chips, or should I instead green? How much will my Bishops help my opponent (who potentially is ignoring Bishop altogether and is greening ahead of me)? How much will my opponent's Bishop help me? Should I mill Provinces with it (which decrease my VP, unlike other millers). In Colony games, the VP chips get less significant, but you could argue that the thinning aspect of it gets more powerful, but then it's likewise powerful for your opponent. Etc. Just love the dynamics it introduces.
Oh and how sweet is it to play Bishop after you played a Militia variant, or your opponent discarded a Curse from your Monty? Or to play Bishop and then Masquerade?
Go Bishop!
