Couldn’t they have just reprinted Lembas? 
But I have to say, I don’t think I’ve ever really noticed how good Lembas is (and now NOLINK Lembas Bread as well). Reconciling your hand is always good, and you can have 4 copies in play which means that you can cycle through your deck nicely.
Here’s a combo: use Lembas x4, and Lembas Bread x4 along with a card like Ranger of Osgiliath to cycle through your draw deck, giving you the best 8 Shadow cards. Sweet!
4 for playability. |

| Just for humor’s sake, I’d like to build a deck with Fatty, then run a whole slew of Lembas and Lembas Bread, making sure they’re all on him. |

When I came to Abraham I let him live just a moment longer. When I came to Moses I saved his life more than once. But the salmon... I regret to say I had a hand in its death.

| The slight downgrade from the original Lembas is a little disappointing, but Lembas Bread is definitely a playable card. 4. |

I thought that at first too, but the original Lembas requires spotting 3 Elves, whereas this one is only 2. Minor difference, but I think it actually balances out pretty well.
I give it a 4. I think it could actually be better than the original in sets that don’t focus chiefly around Elves.
And at least they didn’t change it to a condition.  |

Well, I mean 2 main differences...
To play:
3 Elves (Lembas) or 2  companions (Lembas Bread)
Twilight cost:
1 (Lembas) or 2 (Lembas Bread)
So, for +1 twilight, we need one less Elf, but they must both be companions. So, a differently splashable version - if you can’t get the number of Elves, but can get the two companions, you can get Lembas Bread. |
Our time here is ending...
What did you want to see before the end?
It will be made in the Request-a-card Set #1 (name ideas also welcome  ). |

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you.  |
