i get destroyed by some unusual cards

Supply cards: Transmute, Hamlet, Feodum, Herald, Spy, Thief, Catacombs, Counterfeit, Border Village, Hunting Grounds, Copper, Silver, Gold, Estate, Duchy, Province, Curse, Potion

not much going on here. i split 5/2 so feeling good. After a while, silverspawn buys a thief. well, that's actually a kind of good move, because i've overtrashed my treasures. ok, i'll reciprocate. Well, he has the bigger engine, but i can pick up two provinces. then, after my thief gets a little luckier than his 4 thieves combined, i'm feeling safe. To be sure the 4-thief onslaught doesn't let him catch up, i destroy the treasure out of my deck. now both of us have to buy coppers... and ok, he has the bigger engine, but there's no way to quickly generate treasure on this board, right? right? uh-oh...

Ya, weird board. Two of the worst cards in the game got to shine here. Transmute was even better than I imagined, I bought it for the feodum -> treasure gain, but the duchies were just as important.

I love engines without any convenient payload, they lead to the weirdest games.

The transmute definitely works here and there's even a potential transmute finish on catacombs/hunting grounds to gain duchies and empty piles.
