Great Points!

Here's a question about unwanted reshuffles.  When you have draw + attack e.g Witch, Margrave, Minion, and they are the backbone of your engine draw then is it usually the right play to have one miss the shuffle just to attack your opponent?

It must be different when talking about stackable attacks like Torturer when you'd rather play multiples.  But I am often faced with a situation where I want to keep attacking my opponent but then my next shuffle can't draw as well.

Thoughts?

Here's another

I get better and better as the game goes on

Only if you buy a certain card

Throw me away isn't an easy decision

Goons- VP tokens are a game changer.
Baker- Not only is the start of the game different but coin tokens are a complex new strategy
Ambassador- Junking your opponent while thinning should be it's own pillar
Kings Court- every board is complete different if you add it to the mix

My vote would be for Fortress.

There were only a couple ways to look at trashing before fortress (TFB, gaining and trimming) but I keep finding new ways to use trashing when fortress is on the board.

A lot of these interactions are elegant e.g. Lookout, Mercenary engine, defense against governor, and the list goes on.

Hint:  Think of the order of each clue as the progression of a game.

No it functions more like scout then just being a dead card.  Which yes, scout usually is  :P

Defiantly on the right track with how it's related to scout.  But not it!

Nomad Camp could be a good plan

Trash me if you want

I was thinking of the core things.  It is missing +buy

The second two lines were most of the riddle

Golem can do everything in essence, not almost.  Also I would think there aren't many times that knowing only the top card of your deck would decide whether you would want to play it or not.

Lookout doesn't do almost everything.

Hint: I don't consider putting a card on top of your deck as a thing

I do almost everything

You may not always want to play me

Unless you know the top card of your deck

I'll help us get back on track.

I have Merchant Guild on my personal rankings at 25 and I see it in the low 40s on this list.

I know it isn't a power 5.  I know it doesn't attack or trash.  But it rivals Bridge and Grand Market on pay load.

Maybe its because I've won with it so convincing some times that it holds a special place in my heart.

I just think when building an tight engine and you are looking for a pay load MG shines even more then goons sometimes.  It isn't too tough to get 3 MG in play and buy another 5 engine components and then empty the province pile in one turn.

I just think coin tokens aren't valued enough and MG is the best in the biz.

Late game Lab is better than Witch too

I am comparing cards that are extremely similar. 

"early game Stables is better then Kings Court too but it would be foolish to say Stables is better then Kings Court"
