Give and Take

I thought it would be interesting to put a deck together from the top of the Dominion Strategy site's "Best $X cards" lists. Some of their #1 picks didn't work well together (and it had to have King's Court!) but after a bit of changing things around I ended up with a desk that includes a number of attacks and also a number of ways to unload junk cards via trashing or dumping them on opponent. So far, pretty fun.

With more than 2 players, this turns out not be so much fun. The Mountebanks and Ambassadors tend to multiply the junk cards until everybody is getting bogged down with them, unless everybody spends half their time trashing.

I played with 3 people and it was really fun. We ended up using all of the curse cards and copper cards!

We played with two players and enjoyed it. Be prepared to have big, ugly decks, but lots of fun ways to clean things up. Next time we will probably replace the Haven with the Lighthouse to provide some defense from the Mountebank. Overall, a very balance game.
