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.
