I was just in this online game which I thought was particularly amusing.
My opponent had a 5/2 start, and took Margrave on turn 1, and was pretty much running away with the game.
Then he got Prince with Horse Traders as the card played once a turn.
I had a Margrave, and could use well-timed Inns to reliably get Margrave out, then used more Margraves and Inns to get him out once a turn.  So my opponent was basically playing with a 1 card hand.  I went on to win the game.

The only explanation I can think of for why someone thought that was a good idea was if they thought they would be able to use the reaction every turn.

Unless you were playing against Lord Bottington.

Another possibility is that they wanted to Prince something else (like Margrave) but it lined up with Horse Traders instead.  Not wanting to wait another shuffle to get Prince magic going, they played Prince on HT without thinking through the consequences (especially with a discard attack on the board).

I found out the hard way that you can't Prince a Margrave, because it costs more than 4.

On the plus side, they got +$3, a Buy, and 1 card of their choice out of 6 each turn! That's enough for, like, a Duchy most turns.

This would be pretty fun with Minion.

Hmm, I don't have the Adventures card in memory yet, so I only joke with pre-Adventures sets.
