Similar to Colony, when it\u2019s available, you\u2019ll find that almost all of the time it\u2019s the source of VP that you want to be going for, simply because of how many points you can score. Most other strategies struggle to score enough points to compete with a player who goes for Dominates, particularly just Provinces. With just two Dominates, you\u2019ve scored the same number of points as a player who had to put five Provinces in their deck, and it\u2019s quite easy to overcome the VP deficit from six Provinces with just two Dominates and a few Duchies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The big difference between Dominate and Colony is that you don\u2019t have a baked-in way to hit $14 \u2014 you need some support. Just drawing five cards and getting a bunch of Golds isn\u2019t going to cut it here, you need some form of +Cards to have a shot of getting Dominate in enough time to win the game with it. Cantrips or terminal draw cards can work for this, but without at least something for support you may not be able to make Dominate happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, most of the time you can find a way to hit $14, and the reward is huge when you manage to get there.<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bite-Sized series of articles is meant to take the most powerful cards in Dominion and give a short explanation<span class=\"more-dots\">&#8230;<\/span> <span class=\"more-tag d-block mt-15\"><a class=\"more-link wp-block-button__link icon-inline\" href=\"https:\/\/adamhorton.com\/flog\/bite-sized-dominate\/\">Continue Reading...<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> \"Bite-Sized: Dominate\"<\/span><\/a><\/span><!-- .more-tag --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10,8,7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-904","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bitesized","category-dominion","category-tabletopgames","no-post-thumbnail"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/adamhorton.com\/flog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/904","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/adamhorton.com\/flog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/adamhorton.com\/flog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/adamhorton.com\/flog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/adamhorton.com\/flog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=904"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/adamhorton.com\/flog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/904\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1888,"href":"https:\/\/adamhorton.com\/flog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/904\/revisions\/1888"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/adamhorton.com\/flog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=904"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/adamhorton.com\/flog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=904"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/adamhorton.com\/flog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=904"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
