Of course your strategy should change based on what is and isn’t available in the card row. However, you can also manage that, and in my oppinion that’s probably the most important part of the game.
Always look at what came up in the three actions section. You won’t take it, most likely (only in very few cases it’s worth it to take a card for three actions), but you can predict where it will be in future turns. And if it’s your turn, you can also take more or fewer cards to manage that.
For example, if the last Iron is in the second three actions spot, and you are player three and both one and two already have Iron, then you might want to not take any cards, so player four would have to spend three actions to get Iron, or leave it for you to take with just one. In both cases you win — either four overspends, or you get the last iron for one action.
