− | + | Aside from its synergy with {{Card|Counterfeit}}, Spoils can play very differently depending on how you get it. If you get it via {{Card|Marauder}}, you're probably using it to bootstrap your way out of a junked-up early game where you can barely get to {{Cost|5}} amidst the [[Ruins]] and Marauders. If you get it via {{Card|Bandit Camp}}, you're probably running a sleek engine. If you get it via {{Card|Pillage}}... well, it depends. | |
− | + | Despite the temptation to keep a Spoils and not play it, since it'll go away as soon as you use it, it's rarely the right play to "save up" Spoils for future use. It'll be a while until you see it again! Better to get a good card now, or even just a {{Card|Silver}} if you have no coin in your hand besides the Spoils. On the other hand, you should count how much {{Cost|}} you have and not play the Spoils if you don't actually need its +{{Cost|3}}. You don't have to play all of your Treasures! | |
− | + | === Synergies/Combos === | |
− | + | * {{Card|Counterfeit}} is very effective when used on Spoils, since the Spoils is returned to its pile before it can be trashed. | |
− | + | * {{Project|Guildhall}} provides +1 [[Coffers]] per Spoils gain. | |
− | + | ||
− | + | === Antisynergies === | |
− | + | * {{Card|Venture}} might cause you to "waste" Spoils that you don't need to play that turn to reach {{Cost|8}}. | |
+ | * {{Card|Bank}} does not count Spoils, since they are returned to the pile immediately. | ||

You can't buy Spoils; there are three different ways to get it, and the other two get you them repeatedly. A one-shot Gold is pretty good if you were only drawing it once anyway, or if you didn't really want Gold in the long run, and if those things aren't true well hey it's still something.<br><br>There are 15 Spoils.

It seemed simpler if they returned to the pile. It drops some words from the three cards that give them out, and matches Madman. Forager can still put a Spoils in the trash, it just doesn't get that handed to it for nothing. |
