Editing Dead

Cards are referred to as [[dead]] if they are drawn at a time when they can't be used, or can't be used effectively. 
* The most common example of drawing cards "dead" is when you play a [[terminal]] +Cards card like [[Smithy]] and draw [[Action]]s which you can't play because you have no actions remaining. 
* [[Victory]] cards are typically dead cards in your deck until the end of the game. 
* [[Throne Room]], [[King's Court]], and [[Procession]] can be drawn with no actions to use as targets. 
* [[Treasure Map]]s drawn without a second [[Treasure Map]] in hand can be dead cards. 
* [[Sea Hag]] becomes a dead card once the [[Curse]] pile is empty.
* Early-game [[trasher]]s become dead cards once you have trashed all of your bad cards.

-Cards are referred to as [[dead]] if they are drawn at a time when they can't be used, or can't be used effectively.
