Stash had two issues. First, I didn't have the different-back mechanic yet. So like you set them aside, or dug through your discard pile for them. It was not going to be pretty rules-wise, since by default you can't look through your discard pile. And second, it was not that interesting. There are some cute interactions, but on the whole, it didn't seem necessarily worth a slot in the set. So it left. | Stash had two issues. First, I didn't have the different-back mechanic yet.

When shuffling this, you may look through your remaining deck, and may put this anywhere in the shuffled cards. |
Stash is a promotional Treasure card. When played, it is no different than a Silver. However, it has a different back than other cards - when you shuffle, you can put your Stashes anywhere in your deck, and you can always see where Stashes are in your deck and your opponents' decks or hands.

- When you're shuffling, and Stash is one of the cards you're shuffling, you can put it anywhere in your deck.
- You can't look at the fronts of the cards you're shuffling; Stash has a different card back so you know where it is.
- If you have multiple copies of Stash, you can clump them together, or spread them out however you want.
- If there are any cards in your deck that aren't being shuffled, such as when you had fewer than 5 cards left in your deck when you needed to draw a new hand for next turn, you can look through those remaining cards before putting them on top of your newly shuffled deck, though you can't put Stash in among those remaining cards.

Strategy Article
There is no strategy article for Stash.
The typical use for Stash is to get four Stashes and put them together on top of your deck when you trigger a reshuffle; this guarantees a Province on the next turn. This is typically done with Scavenger or Chancellor to trigger frequent reshuffles, and is discussed at Combo: Chancellor and Stash.
Alternatively, Stash can be used when you want to know the top of your deck - put it in the right place to be drawn by Wishing Well or Mystic, or maybe leave it to be hit by your opponent's Saboteur to protect your more valuable cards. These tricks are typically more trouble than they are worth, but on a weak board where you're willing to spend for a Silver, you should keep them in mind.
Synergies/Combos
- Combo: Chancellor and Stash
- Works even better with Scavenger
- Any other source of rapid cycling (e.g., large +Cards cards like Envoy and Embassy) to make you reshuffle more frequently
- Technically works with Wishing Well and Mystic, or as a defense to Saboteur, but in practice this is rarely effective
Antisynergies
- Royal Seal and Venture are Silver-equivalent -cost Treasures which are usually better.
- Opponents' discard attacks nullify the typical use of Stash to buy a Province, as 3 of them is not enough to buy a Province.
