I've started playing again, on Goko, but ..... wait for it.....

I've only got dat Base :-\ ;)

I'm not on the site very often, but I'd be honored to lose to you.  My player name is DougZ=Better.  I wanted Isotropic Was Strictly Better, but there is a character limit.

And Moat seems so overused these days.

I stumbled into a nice interaction today.

Played Taxman, trashed a Silver (temporarily reducing my hand size) and made my opponent discard one, and drew the topdecked Gold with Jack of all Trades (powered by Native Village). This allowed me to buy the last Province.

I even beat a Mercenary strategy with it, which made it even more satisfying.

My bf princed a Menagerie and later set aside a Horse Trader. I was kind of surprised that, as both Prince and Horse Trader say "at the start of your turn", he could play Menagerie first before drawing a card from Horse Trader. He then Princed Horse Trader and from then on each turn could choose to either discarded duplicates or draw for something to discard first. Neat.

I stumbled into King's Court - Scavenger today and it's pretty good.
This allows you to put 3 cards of your choice on top of your deck.

You just have to choose the "discard your deck" option on the first play only and on the other two plays, you just pick the cards you want from the discard.

If you pick for instance KC, KC and a good drawing card as your 3 options, it's pretty easy to pull off a big combo on your next turn.

Alternatively, if you just pick KC, Scavenger, and Silver, you've got yourself a golden-deck variant.

Not quite, you can still draw a card in hand which needs to be in your deck next turn.

That happened to me in the one game I went for the KC-Scavenger-Silver combo. I only had 2 Scavengers, and they both collided at some point during the combo. It was so unlikely too because of the number of Curses I received from Soothsayer. It was a best-moments event when I drew an Oasis into that hand due to receiving another Curse from Soothsayer.

Yes, but it's still better than most other things you can possibly do with KC and Scavenger on the board.
