There is no strategy article for Raid, but it has been discussed on the [http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=14947.0 forum.]

There is no strategy article for Raid yet, as Adventures is the newest expansion, and the community is still discussing how best to use it.  If you have ideas, please share them on the [http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php forum!]

Like most {{Card|Silver}} gainers, Raid is best in a [[Big Money]] or [[slog]] strategy, since that is where Silver is a good card. In Big Money, it is an efficient way to add multiple Silvers to your deck instead of just one Treasure card per turn, and it has an Attack to boot, making your opponent's next turn worse. If you happen to hit {{cost|5}}, even with only one Silver in play, the Attack might make it worth it if there are no powerful {{cost|5}} [[terminal]]s you happen to want. If you hit {{cost|6}} with three Silvers in play, you should almost always buy it over {{Card|Gold}} in Big Money, since three Silvers tends to be better for your [[money density]] than a single Gold.
+
 
+
Raid shines in [[terminal draw]]-Big Money games, since having a large handsize can get you even more Silvers at a time than if you're just playing with a normal 5-card hand. Do keep in mind that it gets you a very fat deck, meaning you might add an extra draw card or two compared to what you would usually do. Raid is also very good in many types of slogs; {{Card|Feodum}} is ridiculous, of course, but the bulky deck works very well with {{Card|Gardens}} too, and because it makes your deck very resilient to [[greening]], {{Card|Silk Road}} and {{Card|Duke}} are well-supported by Raid.
+
 
+
Raid is not usually an [[engine]] card (well, Event), but there are a couple of exceptions. The most notable one is {{Card|Storyteller}}, as it doesn't particularly mind a ton of Silvers in your deck. With a Storyteller and three Silvers in hand, you can draw 7 cards, increasing your handsize by 3 - the same as three {{Card|Laboratory}} or {{Card|Village}} + {{Card|Hunting Grounds}}. If you happen to dud a turn, because your Storytellers got lost among the Silvers, you can probably still buy a {{Card|Province}}. Otherwise, if you are overdrawing your deck already but still lack payload (rare, but it happens), Raid is a quick way to increase your payload. With only 3 Silvers in play, your economy can increase from {{cost|6}} to {{cost|12}} in a single turn, which is awesome if you can draw all of it. Of course, if your draw is fairly limited, you really want to look for more efficient ways to increase your economy.

+
=== Synergies ===
+
* {{Card|Feodum}}, to a lesser extent {{Card|Silk Road}}, {{Card|Duke}} and {{Card|Gardens}}
+
* {{Card|Storyteller}}
+
* Strong draw, especially with +Buy ({{Card|Council Room}}, {{Card|Margrave}}), especially with {{Event|Conquest}}.
+
 
+
=== Antisynergies ===
+
* Compact [[engine]]s with limited draw
