Dominion General Discussion / "Copycatting"
« on: December 15, 2012, 04:14:36 am »
In two rare instances of my Dominion career, I have had people insulting me or dismissing my victory because I "copycatting", that is, playing a similar or identical strategy as my opponent, when I'm in the 2p position. I certainly don't adopt the opponent strategy as a rule, but of course, sometimes the cards are such that there's really only one way to go.
I mean, if someone's strategy consists purely of copying the opponent, shouldn't he/she tend to lose, since they'll be playing suboptimally to their draws?
My two questions are 1) has this ever happened to you, and 2) can we agree, as a community, that this is a really stupid complaint to have?
