− | Secret Passage is a {{Card|Fugitive}} variant. | + | Secret Passage is a {{Card|Fugitive}} variant. It's primary strength is cycling. When you draw two cards, you must put any card in your hand back into your deck somewhere. Although Fugitive cycles better than Secret Passage in theory, the ability to put a card from your hand anywhere into your deck is actually not bad after first glance. |
Firstly, Secret Passage combos with some self-deck inspection cards such as {{Card|Patrol}} or {{Card|Sentry}}. Simply throw a bad card just below the top card on your deck, and Sentry can trash it or discard it. Put a 'stashed' Victory or {{Card|Curse}} card into the deck 4 cards down and Patrol will pick it up. Topdeck a bad card and then discard it with {{Card|Duchess}}. | Firstly, Secret Passage combos with some self-deck inspection cards such as {{Card|Patrol}} or {{Card|Sentry}}.

Lastly, Secret Passage is a versatile card in itself. Stash a collided terminal for next turn. Put a Copper into your next hand for {{Card|Masquerade}} protection.

{{Quote|Text=I had been thinking about trying to get in another {{Card|Wishing Well}} combo, but it's tricky, because Wishing Well draws a card prior to the wish. Changing the top card just isn't enough. I thought of this and it was love at first sight. It does lots of neat little tricks. When it can't do those tricks, it's still useful, just for putting bad cards on the bottom of your deck (where you hope they miss a shuffle). | {{Quote|Text=I had been thinking about trying to get in another {{Card|Wishing Well}} combo, but it's tricky, because Wishing Well draws a card prior to the wish.
