Baron/Rebuild combo

This seemed pretty fast to me; Baron gets you to $5 easily, for buying Rebuilds and Duchies, and it can also pick up Estates (either when you don't activate it, or with its +buy when you get to $7) which you want for Rebuilding. Baron/Silver gives you a good chance of getting at least one Rebuild on turns 3/4, and if you buy a village of some sort along the way, you can discard the Estate before playing Rebuild, which solves something of a problem that Rebuild can have.

Is this a thing?

Sounds good =) dont know how fast it is. and can maybe lead to problem if the duchys run out.

In my experience count + rebuild is pretty good. count can trash out coppers give you coins to reach 5 for rebuild and gain you duchys. it even can put the victory card you have in hand on top of the deck or discard to victory cards.

I played a game where I went Baron/Rebuild recently. It seemed pretty good.

The Duchy split is pretty important in any Rebuild game, but I had no problem getting three Rebuilds with time to spare to buy the last Duchy. My opponent was going for some Rebuild/Market Square thing, which I rejected because Gold is for hitting more than $5.
