[edit] Official FAQ
- You can only buy this once per turn.
- When you do, if your -1 Card token is not on your deck, you put it on your deck and get +.
- The -1 Card token will cause you to draw one less card the next time you draw cards; see the Tokens section.
[edit] Other rules clarifications
- You do not get + if you buy Borrow when your -1 Card token is already on your deck.
[edit] Strategy
There is no strategy article for Borrow, but it has been discussed on the forum.
Borrow is rather straightforward: you get an extra coin to spend this turn, but you'll draw one card less next turn. On average, a card is worth more than a coin, so it's definitely not a deal you should make every turn. However, if you absolutely need a certain key card early on, Borrow can be very useful. For example, it can mitigate the negative effects of opening / on a board with Mountebank or cost Trashers such as Junk Dealer and Count. It can also help you to hit for Familiar on the second shuffle. Late-game, especially in Big Money games, hitting is not as big of a disadvantage anymore, since you can just Borrow to hit Province.
[edit] Synergies
- Draw-to-X: Watchtower, Library, Jack of all Trades, Minion
- Possession: Borrowing while Possessing someone hurts them instead of you, although this might change with the new Possession rules introduced by Empires (explanation).
- Opponent's handsize attacks don't hurt quite as much
[edit] Antisynergies
- Opponent's Relic prevents you from Borrowing
