− | Delve can get you 3 Silvers in | + | Delve is a very good Event for {{Cost|2}}, allowing you to gain a {{Card|Silver}} for {{Cost|2}}, and it doesn't even use up a buy. Opening {{Cost|3}}-{{Cost|4}} can get you 3 Silvers, fantastic in a [[Big Money]] game. Another neat time to use it is whenever you have {{Cost|2}} more than you need for buying the card you want to buy, eliminating those pesky {{Cost|10}}s you always seem to get.(Sorry, {{Card|King's Castle}}!) Delve is also good in these situations: |
− | + | *{{Card|Duke}}-{{Card|Duchy}} rushes, where the extra Silver can keep you going until the end of the game, despite having an extra 16-24 Victory cards in your deck. | |
− | + | * {{Card|Gardens}} games, where the extra Silver keeps you going and gives you a lot of Victory points. | |
− | + | ||
− | + | *{{Card|Feodum}} games, where the Silver gives you ''a lot'' of Victory points. | |
− | + | *Games with {{Card|Embargo}} [[tokens]] enjoying themselves on the Silver pile, since the wording on Embargo states that players only gain a {{Card|Curse}} if they buy a card with an Embargo token on it's pile, not gain, hence creating a loophole for Delve. | |
+ | |||
+ | It's not so good in [[Prosperity]] games with {{Card|Platinum}} and {{Card|Colony}}, because Silver in a Colony game is only somewhat better than {{Card|Copper}} in a {{Card|Province}} game, especially with all those swanky [[Treasure|Treasures]] in Prosperity. | ||
