Must a Dominion effect's faction requirement be met when the card is played, or can it be met later in the turn?

It must be met when you play the card, not later: cards already played this turn, or revealed from your hand at that moment, count. A Dominion effect does not have to be the last card played; cards that become available later in the turn cannot trigger it. If the card draws first, the check happens after that draw resolves.
