Rolling Mountain-trolling (Only shadow)

[Braindamagedcarebearsrock]

I Put deck list first and talk from strategy later on.

Shadow(35):
 
Conditions (10):
3x Unforgiving Depths 
4x Beasts of Burden
3x Goblin Hordes

Events (4):
2x Unreasonable Choice
2x Barrage

Minions (21):
4x Mountain-Troll
1x Chamber Patrol
1x Watchful Orc
4x Orkish Worker
3x Isengard Underling
4x Orkish Runner
4x Scurrying goblin (or Orkish scout)

Basically your strategy is to swarm with orcs. i like more (or started to like more after playing) orc swarm since i don't need keyward and it's warg. And with this deck you can easily pull two mountain-trolls per shadow (other has fierce)

Mountain-troll pays 10 pool which is problem against choke. there is couple ways to try go around
1) try get multiple goblin hordes in play and draw only pool giving/free minions (try get 5minions at same time to hand) Mount Doom is your safe way to get minions back(Usually choke="site control")
2) Orkish Worker . But only if your opponent plays forest nazgul. its not instant win but once you pop nazgul you can start smiling (anything between 5+ casting cost is fine, 4 is poor man's runner)

Chamber patrol has two uses. It makes site an underground at region 2 and its nice boost at 3. Watchful orc replaces underground site for you if unforgiving depths gets discarded. I don't play more than one since 4cost is much in this deck from a orc. I think chamber patrol as a emergency underground so it kinda replaces second watchful orc(if you wonder why i don't play 2x watchful orc).

Isengard underling is is basically this decks "Mr. Combo". Unreasonable choice makes people to discard conditions or you get free minions from mountain-troll. Underling costs 4 to play from discard pile +unreasonable choice gives two pool, it costed normal price but pretty cheap from discard pile. or you get  that condition destroyed and that's always good.

Well i made this deck based on this:

When-mountain-troll-hits-playdiscard-pile-costs:
Scurrying goblin 1
Orkish runner (at region 2... 2 and at reg 3 1)
Orkish Worker (you can win game if you get +6 , 4=0 otherwise it costs 1-4)
Isengard underling 4
Watchful orc/ Orc Patrol = 5 (ugh, other reason why i don't play more of them )


About sites:
Mount Doom is always good to have
Sirannon ruins 4number + you can change site for underground
Shores of new hithoel (when everything else fails)
at least 5-6 underground sites

Cards that are playable:
Bound to its Fate (burdens... burdens...  )
Dread and despair (not as good as unreasonable choice but it has 0cost+ you get new card for worker if it fails)
Massing strength (something for the faithful stone)
Forced march (run over sanctuary ,or when you need more pool against choke decks (probably both))
Orkish Lackey (its great card but it doesn't give pool which can big a problem)

Expanded Version:
Your main pool giving machine is Demoralized and mountain-troll is making barrel rolls with orcs. i can post in expanded other deck if you want but i give some hints.
Demoralized
Rallying orc
orc skulker
troll's keyward
Orc Hammer
Armed for battle

Well its not perfect and choke is still problem. But you can fight against it. The faithful stone is evil and ithilien blade makes trolls disappear but ... once you "pop", others can't stop.

PS. if my text has too many spelling errors, please send pm.

EDIT: yeah i forgot Orkish scouts since i don't own them. they could easily replace scurrying goblins and by doing that you don't need 3x unforgiving depths (but 4x goblin hordes comes handy + forced march) also orkish scout is good with 2-3 shadow number too.

Orkish Scout? Sirannon is cool.
