So here's a question: which cards can you never gain?

I think it's none, now that we have Lurker?

Pretty sure there are at least two.

Any of the travellers (besides page and peasant) can't be gained.
(or do you mean kingdom cards only?)

Travellers can be gained from trash via Lurker.

I think it has to be Overgrown Estate and Hovel, doesn't it? They're too cheap to gain via Graverobber/Rogue, and the wrong type for Lurker.

They can be gained by Rogue, Graverobber, or Lurker.

Those are the only two I could think of.

The Ace of Spades, Black Lotus, and Yogg-Saron, Hope's End...

Ohhhh, you meant Dominion cards (and not card shaped things)?
Your opponent's set aside Prince, the Trash pile card, and the Copper randomizer.


Ohhhh, you meant like just any card with a certain name, and not a specific one, and that your opponent will cooperate and allow you to gain?
Then yeah, only Hovel and Overgrown Estate.

Any Action, you could trash it and then gain it with Lurker.
Any Treasure is either buyable, or is Spoils or Diadem which you gain.
Victory cards except for Overgrown Estate are all buyable (if your opponent doesn't get to them first)
Curses can be gained.
And Hovel is the only card without any of these types.

Little bit off-topic, but I sincerely hope that the Ace of Spades will still be a card you can choose for Wishing Well and Mystic on ShIT's system. I've always found it a really clever joke.

There should be a text field where you can enter any card name you want.

Except for when you want to wish for Bureaucrat.  No one should have to endure that.

Or a field with an autocomplete dropdown.

I thought you thought it was a slip because I said 'Jake's partners' instead of 'Roadrunner7671.'

imagine a reaction card called 'beets' that says, under the line:


"whenever there is a lunar eclipse happening, you may reveal this from your hand. if you do, trash any number of cards from your hand."
so, during the lunar eclipse, you can reveal beets any number of times from your hand.


  imagine we're playing dominion, i just finished my turn, and we both notice a lunar eclipse is happening. wow, this lunar eclipse is so cool. how about, in observance of this lunar eclipse, we'll have it be nobody's turn for a while, and when it's over you can start your turn. also, we're playing with infinitely large supply piles of every kingdom card.
  so, if you have a hand of 1 beets, any other 4 cards (anything that could legally be in someone's hand is fair game), and no deck (or other cards on mats, blah blah blah), what is the largest amount of cards you could gain before the eclipse is over, and my turn starts?

I don't think more than 12 (trashing either 4 Hunting Grounds or 4 Feoda, or a combination of those). I almost got something to work where it's arbitrarily many because you bought Donate before and are in Donate-resolving phase (which is between turns). But I can only make you gain cards there via Embassy/IGG, which both cost $5, and the only way to gain stuff is Catacombs, but Ferry doesn't apply if it's not your turn.

Can't you just trash unbounded many Cultists to increase your handsize arbitrarily, then trash unbounded many of whatever card (Squire, Catacombs, Hunting Grounds, Feodum, Rocks, Sir What's-his-names, Crumbling Castles...)?

Edit: I missed there's no deck...

At least 19. Inheritance on Ferried Hunting Grounds, trash 3 of them to gain 9 estates. Trash Cultist to draw 3 Estates. Trash 3 Estates to gain 9 Estates.

Oh man Inheritance. I knew I missed something.

Then it's arbitrarily many with an opponent that Inherited Embassies, and trashes X Hunting Grounds to Donate, gaining 3X Estates and making you gain 3X Silvers; no Beets needed.

Without Donate, you gain get to 36 with 4 Hunting Grounds and Inherited Death Carts.
