Pretty much follows the accepted wisdom floating around the forums and podcasts but a fun write-up and a great resource for new-ish players trying to plan out what they should be purchasing.

problem with "accepted wisdom" in these kinds of games is that we're all working from the same card pool, and it soon becomes readily apparent what things work well and what many other things don't

eventually, we're all gonna arrive at similar conclusions
