| A '''gainer''' is any card which allows you to gain cards without buying them. The simplest example is {{Card|Workshop}}. They often work well with {{Card|Gardens}} strategies, as they allow you to gain more cards than you have buys. They can also be useful for picking up [[engine]] components, especially cheap ones. | | A '''gainer''' is any card which allows you to gain cards without buying them.

− | ====Gainers depending on cards played==== | + | ==== On-buy/gain gainers ==== |
| | | |
− | These cards can gain with no cost restriction; what cards they can gain depends on whether or not copies of those cards are in play when the gainer is used, or played while the gainer is resolving. | + | These cards resemble the above in gaining cards up to a particular cost, but do so when you buy another card, rather than when you play the gainer itself. |

| + | |
| | | |
− | {{trait|Friendly}}, from Plunder, resembles Way of the Rat, but lets you discard a card, rather than play it, to gain a copy.
| + | === Silver gainers === |
| | | |
− | {{card|Changeling}}, from [[Nocturne]], is another one-shot gainer; which can gain copies of cards in play. | + | Since {{Card|Silver}} is present in every game, and is almost always a useful card but rarely super-powerful, there are several cards that use gaining Silver as a decent but not overpowered bonus. |
| | | |
− | ===Trash gainers===
| + | * [[Dominion (base set)|Dominion]]: {{Card|Bureaucrat}} |
− | These cards can gain cards out of the Trash instead of the supply:

| + | * [[Seaside]]: {{Card|Explorer}} |
| + | * [[Cornucopia]]: {{Card|Trusty Steed}} |
| + | * [[Hinterlands]]: {{Card|Jack of all Trades}}, {{Card|Trader}} |

| + | * [[Adventures]]: {{Card|Amulet}} |
| | | |
− | * Intrigue: {{card|Lurker}}
| + | {{Card|Embassy}}, from [[Hinterlands]], distributes Silver to your ''opponents'' when you gain it. |
− | * Dark Ages: {{Card|Graverobber}} and {{Card|Rogue}}
| + | |
− | * Renaissance: {{Card|Treasurer}}
| + | |
| | | |
− | ''{{card|Thief}}'' and {{card|Noble Brigand}} technically gain cards from the trash as well, but only the cards trashed as part of resolving their Attack abilities.
| + | === Other treasure gainers === |
| | | |
− | === On-buy/gain gainers ===
| + | These cards can be used to gain other Treasures—some specifically {{Card|Copper}}, {{Card|Gold}}, or {{Card|Spoils}}; others whatever Treasure happens to be available. |
| | | |
− | These cards resemble the above in gaining cards up to or at a particular cost, but do so when you buy or gain another card, rather than when you play the gainer itself.

− | * Though [[Nocturne]]: {{Card|Changeling}} trash itself and gains a copy of a card you have in play, both effects are not related. Furthermore as a [[one-shot]] Changeling acts more as a temporary replacement than a gainer.

− | * Though it does not gain a card, [[Menagerie (expansion)|Menagerie]]: {{Card|Camel Train}} does move a card from the Supply to your Exile mat that is included in your deck at the end of the game (or earlier if you legitimately gain a copy and choose to discard the ones in Exile).
