Here's a game I had with Bad Egg.

I won. He got to gold first, but I got to possession first and that was what counted. What interested me in this game is the advantage I got from my opponents herbalists and transmutes. I used the herbalist to put a copper back on his deck, and the transmutes for easy duchy gains. You may say that possession is an annoying card, but you have to admit the strategy behind it is considerable.

Someone should make a list of cards that are dangerous to buy if your opponent has possession. Ambassador and masquerade are notorious, island can be terrible, transmute and herbalist are bad/good (depending on your perspective) too. What other dangerous and fun interactions are out there? Cartographer and navigator can be liabilities if your opponent is able to ruin your next hand.

Not to mention most Duration cards.

Anything that sets up your next turn is vulnerable to at least some abuse by Possession - Scheme, Treasury, Native Village, Alchemist. Courtyard, just a bit. Trash-for-benefits - Apprentice, Salvager, Remodel, Expand, Forge. Top-deck inspection attacks - spy, scrying pool. Swindler.

Outpost: Let me give you 3 cards to work with next turn, enjoy!

If you play someone else's outpost while possessing that person, they will get an outpost turn followed by a regular turn. It's only if they play an outpost on the turn after you possess them that an anti-synergy happens.

Don't forget the "trash-for-benefit" AND "helping the opponent's hand" powers of Governor.
