It's not the best way of trashing Ruins, though, since you have to get them into play first, and you'd probably want to save the terminal space for cards that are actually useful.
A cute trick with Bonfire not mentioned before includes trashing Ruins from play (it can't get rid of Curse s in any way, unfortunately). In this case, you can use the trash for benefit card to get rid of Estates, and use Bonfire to remove the Coppers from your deck.īonfire can also be useful later in the game. Trash for benefit cards come to mind cards like Remodel or Apprentice like to kill Estates, but prefer not to waste time on Coppers, because they can't do quite as much with cards that cost. An extra benefit of trashing with Bonfire in the opening is that the other card you buy is guaranteed to show up on turn 3 or 4.īonfire excels when combined with cards that like trashing Estates, but Coppers not so much. Another good option is Baron, since the early Copper trashing almost guarantees that your Baron finds an Estate to discard. Something like Monument works well you really want to play it as much as possible, which is made possible by the exceptionally quick trashing that Bonfire provides. This is especially nice if there are other good or cards you want - cheap and strong engine components such as Village or Smithy. So if you decide to open Bonfire, what should you pair up with it? One good option includes a gainer, such as Ironworks or Workshop. If you open Bonfire (which can be very strong, mind you), you really want a power or along with it to boost your economy. This is why opening with two Bonfires is almost always a bad idea. Another downside is that buying Bonfire doesn't do anything good to your economy in fact, because you're trashing two Coppers, it actively hurts your economy. Of course, Bonfire has a couple of glaring downsides for one thing, you cannot trash Estate s with them, because you cannot get them into play (the only edge case being Inheritance - in which case you probably don't want to trash them). Compared to other power trashers such as Steward and Remake, Bonfire trashes even quicker because you can start with it right away, without having to wait a shuffle first. There is no strategy article for Bonfire, but it has been discussed on the forum.īonfire is a strong and quick way of trashing your Coppers. For example, with 5 Coppers in play and two Buys, you could pay for a Bonfire to trash two of the Coppers, then spend the other on a Peasant.
