Ok, not really.

But I did get a pretty awesome rush earlier when I identified it and then (basically) pulled it off.

Everyone knows that Baker can allow you to open double Treasure Map. And then if you have Doctor on the board you can overpay with your quadruple-gold hand and trash pretty much the rest of your deck! And when your deck is nothing but 4 Golds, Doctor, and Provinces, Journeyman (skipping provinces) nearly ensures that you'll find the $8 needed for another Province!

So that was the gameplan. And then what do you know? TM collision turn 3!! Things were going swimmingly.

It doesn't work perfectly, I miss $8 a few times as expected and end up buying 2 Journeymen and a few more Golds to make everything run smoothly. But 4 provinces by turn 8 guys!! Having TM collide turn 3 I think sealed the win, but with perfect shuffle luck this deck could have drained provinces startlingly fast.

If you're going to be overpaying Doctor a bunch, it might be worth it to buy a third Treasure Map to aid in collision...

The opponent did buy a third, yet inexplicably chose not to trash the third map twice when overpaying for doctor (turn 11).

Probably one of those dumb mistakes.

"Oh, a TM... I should put that back.  Oh, a second TM - definitely put that back.  A third TM?  Wait... I've made a terrible mistake..."



And Dsell, this game should be posted in that "Dear Opponent, I'm sorry..." thread.

Yeah, I think it was something like this, it was also her first game with Doctor. XD

Crossposting now...

Very nice one. However, 4-card combos can inherently never be broken (since a specific 4-card combo only appears in 0.0003% of all games, if I've calculated correctly).

well with perfect shuffle luck you can empty the supply in turn 4 so thatīs OP

[Warfreak2]

I think that's a 10-card combo.

Generally the !!!1!1 indicates extreme sarcasm.

Of course, in a game tilted toward Guilds, this wouldn't be quite as uncommon.
