Synergy
High (75)Engine 100%Alt-VP / Rush 100%Trash-for-benefit 95%
Gardens/Silk Road + gainer + +Buy — Fairgrounds + Taxman
Cheap alt-VP piles score best when you can gain/buy many cards per turn to pad the deck count — the generalized Beggar/Gardens pattern.
Self-duplicators accelerate three-pile endings — Jester + Fairgrounds
Port/Magpie/Experiment empty their own piles fast, pairing with Gardens/Silk Road rush plans.
Variety payoff + broad gainer/+Buy — Fairgrounds + Taxman
Fairgrounds/Museum/Horn of Plenty want many differently-named cards; Workshops and +Buy make one-of shopping cheap.
⚠ Variety payoffs vs self-duplicators — Fairgrounds + Jester
Menagerie-style payoffs want unique names; self-duplicating cards work against that plan.
Per-gain payoff + multi-gainer — Livery + Taxman
Livery/Garrison/Labyrinth/Commerce only shine when you gain several cards per turn — Workshops/Horse/Loot gainers and +Buy provide those gains.
