A powerful but abusive combo
A powerful but abusive combo prevailed here. I bought a potion and steward to start. I immediately starting trashing estates and copper. I never bought any more money except potions because I started buying scrying pools and apothecarys. Eventually I didn't have any treasures or vp except for potions. So my multiple scrying pools drew everything I had.
I also had an early pawn and used the multiple buys frequently to buy more pawns and potion based cards at the same time. Soon I knew it was time to start buying up all the vineyards. Just one turn early in this process I also had enough money for a province. So I bought one province and ALL the vineyards. Those ended up being worth 7 points each.
Later I used Golem as a way to branch actions and then I ended both action chains using navigator and steward for money. Pawns ended up being used primarily as "+buy +action" and let me buy multiple vineyards in a turn via the multiple potions I had pulled as well.
My opponent (this was 2 player) observed the loophole I was abusing a little too late or adapted too late and never had a way to fight it. He ended up helping me attempt to end the game early buy finishing the pawn stack. On my last turn I only needed to buy 2 scrying pools to finish a third stack so I left him off easy and played my hand more simply (instead of maximizing my hand as I usually did). In any case, he ended up with 15 points and I had about 62, and could have easily had more points if I had maxed my last hand.
