Wharf/FG loses to engine

After noticing I cracked the top 500, I hit a slump, including this game:

http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201211/27/game-20121127-190001-880e2258.html

cards in supply: Black Market, City, Coppersmith, Fishing Village♦, Fool's Gold, Highway, Hoard, Treasury, Village, Wharf, and Young Witch

There were good cards in the BM but I immediately notice Wharf/FG and start going to town, although I do acknowledge that FV is great with Wharf. I think Highways definitely helped him out, and I did eat all 10 curses from his YW by the time the game was over. I thought I could just barrel through with the two cards, but I guess not. Comments appreciated. Oh wow, I realize just now that FV was the freaking BANE wow, major fail on my part :-[

Curses make it more difficult to connect FG.

FV/Wharf is also friggin fast. You got to 4 provinces in a reasonable amount of time too, but lost basically by the -10 points from the curses.

And with highways to make great use of the extra buys... yeah, engine is gonna win here a big majority of the time.
