The worst game of Dominion

Played Dominion tonight for the first time in at least a year. IRL 4 player game, with jonts no less. The other 2 players were casual/newish players.

Board was:





Someone opened Sir Martin who happened to be on top. I went double Ambassador, jonts got Ambassador + Warehouse.

My ambassadors didn't collide, but one ended up in my bottom 2 cards, and was trashed by Sir Martin before I ever drew it once.

I got a Silver at some point and managed to hit for Dame Molly; jonts got a Knight eventually as well. Sir Martin player was getting very lucky Sir Martin draws and plays; Ambassadors and Silvers being trashed everywhere. was almost impossible to hit, and nothing cost .

Estates drained very quickly from the Ambassadors (all 4 players were playing them). Sir Martin player also got a bunch of Fool's Golds, but only once had 2 in hand at the same time... this was enough for him to hit for a King's Court that he would never get to play. The other player wisely got a Duchy when she finally hit . I got a City; but it was only played once.

Game ended on Estates, Ambassadors, and Fool's Golds. I won with 10 Estates. Duchy player only had 5 Estates or so; Sir Martin player had 7; jonts had the last 2 Estates for 2 points.

In total I think all 4 players combined saw or more 5 times between us. No one had ever.

IRL 4 player game

So the worst game of Dominion was an IRL 4-player game. The funniest game in the whole entire world was an online 2-player game[1]. Coincidence? I think not.

4 player ambassador is weird. And extra awful when you keep losing every card you buy. It might have been better to just load up on silver and try to hit 5 early and often and never expect to get clean. Of course the real play is probably never to play 4P dominion.

Besides most games with Rebuild, I presume. Though the Knights are certainly good at making things painful.
