Wishing well diver...

Wishing the wishing well into Lab... have to admit I never see this coming

http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201208/15/game-20120815-080217-8383e64f.html

How common is this strategy? Since I have never seen anything like this before. I think it definitely needs support, like Ironwork and Upgrade here... What other cards make this work?

Well if you can get a good wish success rate, then wishing well a very nice card. An almost lab for $3 is hard to beat. There are two ways to do this: the first, like in this game, is to have a lot of one card, and wishing well is a good target. I wouldn't recommend spending 8 buys on them, but if there is a good way to gain them (ironworks) then go for it. The other way is deck inspection. Good examples are cartographer and apothecary. Sadly, scout is still pretty weak even in this regard.

and there is deck control, one of the best things to think about when playing the card WW

From the title, I thought this might be about one of my favorite ways to combo Wishing Well and Pearl Diver -- by Wishing for a card remember because you left it on the bottom of the deck.  Well, okay, I only did this once, and okay you should be able to know what the last card in the deck is -- but it was pretty satisfying anyway.
