Strategy and decklist for a Gandalf / Rohan fellowship.
--- end description ---

There are many underused decks in this world Frodo, and none of them should be treated lightly...

One such underused deck is the Gandalf Rohan fellowship. With the introduction of some great powerhouse cards like G for Grand and *Eomer, Heir to Meduseld, a deck can become rather stong against most strategies. However G for Grand does have a weakness...burdens, and with burdens being such a fun strategy every deck should have at least some burden removal. In this deck I chose to include *Glamdring, Foe Hammer andWatch and Wait which can both do wonders for removing those pesky little resistance killers.
As a side Strategy I have *Fortress Never Fallen which can add tokens quickly for condition removal OR I can use *Snowmane, Noble Mearasto remove tokens and exaust minions, then *Eowyn, Lady of Ithilien comes out and kills minions crazily using there exausted comrad. I also added *Shadowfax, Unequaled Steed to protect Gandalf from those wounds that can and will eventually become fatal.

As a minion deck I decided to use a more common strategy...Enduring Nazgul Coruption. Some of the key cards to a normal Enduring Nazgul strategy are *Ulair Enquea, Thrall of the One,Between Nazgul and Prey, andKeening Wail. From what I have observed most Enduring Nazgul decks are very similar to each other in the fact that they all use the same cards...So I decided to go against the crowd and use some less used cards. After a little searching in my rare binder I found Dark Swooping Sadows In comparison to other burden adding cards like Keening Wail this card is almost undercosted. Even with its cheap cost, I have never played against a deck using it. Finally as a fun little surprise for any unprpaired fellowship I decided to put *Gollum, Stinker in. At the later sites he ca be a 13+ Streingth minion that adds a burden when he wins a skirmish.
And now finally I give you the deck.

I think a second watch and wait wouldn't be a luxury.
You have only 2 cards to remove burdens.
