Title: Stash
Post by: kn1tt3r on August 08, 2011, 12:29:04 pm
Quite an unpopular card (and obviously not great), but as it has turned up in the "when bad cards shine" thread, I played a bit with the simulator:

- the implemented Chancellor/Stash strategy is quite bad => if you buy Stash strictly over Gold until you have 4 Stashs and let the simulator buy more than one Chancellor, it beats the implemented one (Gold over Stash w/o conditions) by 56.4 - 36.9

- this Chancellor/Stash is really strong: it beats Big Money Ultimate by 77.3 - 18.5, BM-Envoy by 53-41, BM-Lab by 70-24 (!), it just gets crushed by hand decreasing attacks (against BM-Militia 36-59), however it is quite resistant against curses

- Simple Stash (just the above combo w/o Chancellor) is still slightly better than BM Ultimate (45.8 - 44.7)


If feel Stash gets also very much improved by Warehouse-like cards that accelerate cycling, but I it's still tricky to play because you have to carefully trigger your shuffles. Not that easy to simulate.

Geronimoo is looking for improvements at the moment -> http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=445.0
