Dolan seems to have confused Gooby with a totally unrelated Disney cartoon dog.

Couldn't you just play the princess instead for an extra buy and a $2 cost reduction?

Estate is embargoed. Buying it will give you a Curse.

Edit: Imagine this hand: C/S/S/B/P. Playing Princess, you can buy Duchy and Estate, gain a Curse and end the game. Playing Butcher and trashing Princess, you can gain the Estate and still buy Duchy. It's an edge case, after all.

[eHalcyon]

Maybe he can't afford to take the Curse?

What is that meme anyway?

Dating site murderer. He's harmless, but the first line makes it appear like he was a psycho. Same principle as successful black man, ordinary muslim man and such.

Want a true Dominion palindrom ? Dame Anna.
Want a really true Dominion palindrom ? "Dame Anna e mad"
(BTW, in a few days you may be able to read the start of a fiction with a girl named Anna and author named ChocophileBenj... if I'm heartful enough to go on it)

I hope you speak French ! Otherwise I hope someone is patient enough to translate all of it.
I'll do so if you want.

[sudgy]

Actually, it depends on the kingdom.

[Piemaster]

I'll do that sometimes, right before the game is over...

I don't have an issue with that.  It's the people who do it just because you had a good turn or they had a bad one or something but then don't resign they play on hoping to turn it around.  Either the game is over or it isn't.

But it can be a good game even if it isn't over!

I do it typically only once I'm certain that my opponent has a way of ending with a win. Once I'm certain of that, a "gg" can help as a subtle reminder that they can end the game and that I don't like sitting through long and overplayed mega-turns.

I dunno, I feel like a good proportion of the time when my opponent does this they actually don't realize that they can end the game. I don't usually feel like helping them out.

[gman314]

Yeah, but oftentimes they will win eventually, so I don't have any qualms about pointing it out.

I just noticed you could also trash the Silver, keep the Tokens, gain an Estate for the trashed Silver and still buy Duchy using the tokens. It's not better, but a different way to achieve it, that usually will feel more natural. I'll just claim he's going for Feodum, therefore

Or:

[heron]

Errr...can someone explain that one?
Is it just that they are buy both masterpiece and bridge and they don't work well together?

[Twistedarcher]

You could have just bought the 2 silvers, without having masterpiece in your deck.

[Grujah]

Well, maybe you are playing a guardens strategy, and this way you get more cards and still have 1 buy left.

Buying Masterpiece and overpaying costs only one buy, doesn't it ?
Maybe :
