Title: Is Treasure Map+Talisman a combo?

Did my opponent get really lucky, or is this an actual combo? I think the former, but I played so badly in this game and have been playing so badly for the past month or so that I don't trust my instincts anymore.

Your opponent utilizes the Talisman exactly once to pick up a single extra Treasure Map that he never uses - almost certainly not worth it, considering that Talisman could have been another TM itself. It looks like your opponent does get a little lucky, lining up TMs when there's only 3 in a 30+ card deck. It's a high-variance, high-reward play, and it worked out here.

Otherwise, meh, not so much.

Also, a lucky turn when I had Throne Room and Armory together; it was a three player game, both the other players went for Treasure Map directly and one was annoyed that I lined up my Treasure Maps just the next turn after getting them - how lucky is that?
