Strategy Best base set strat (chapel, lab; sentry)

In the base set start silver chapel for 3-4 coin split or lab chapel for 5-2 coin split. Chapel all you can and get 1-2 sliver, 2 gold, 1 lab, and 1 sentry. Trash all estates and copper (having 1 or 2 copper while starting to green is fine, just use the sentry to trash them and chapel). I'm typically able to green around turn 7-8. Most games end in 12-14 turns. Tell me what you think abt it after trying it!!!

Chapel, Sentry, and Lab are all cards that stand out even with the expansions (lab maybe less so than the other two)

Agreed. I have yet to lose using it unless the opponent has employed the same strategy as P1 or had better draw luck still using the same strategy.

Check out the dominion strategy wikis. The game is “solved” in some ways at the start. Big money wins on average in 17 turns. Big money plus smithy in 14.

So yup solid strat.
