Based on your deck post, I'd say c10ckw0rk's secret is a focused strategy. Your deck is sorta all over the place and I don't see how it would add that many burdens (especially with Son of Hamfast around). Want me to split the thread so you can ask for feedback?

Splitting is good. Now, I thought my strategy was pretty self explanitory. Use the twillight nazgul to add burdens with it wants to be found and use morgul skulker to get the event back so i can use it till the rb is corrupted... am missing something?

You won't get all of the cards you need in time to get remotely close to corrupting the Ringbearer. And with any burden removal, you're completely sunk. Choke will destroy it. It's just too scattered... They Will Find the Ring --> Why is this in here? Drawn to Its Power --> Your Nazgul don't strike me as doing intense enough damage to kill Not Easily Destroyed --> Why not His Terrible Servants? Why 4x Ulaire Attea? Maybe put in another Ulaire Otsea instead to help with choke. No Morgul Gates? No Resistance Becomes Unbearable or Wraith World? Sure, the Witch King will get some wounds on Frodo, but IMO against a good Freeps it won't be enough to get any burdens that way.

It's Fellowship, so no Morgul Brute this time... but Blade Tip is a good idea with Otsea RiT. On the other hand, he's a bit hard pressed to win skirmishes. You'd probably have to take out some pumps ( Nazgul Sword, Threshold of Shadow) to fit in the other cards.

I think for corruption you pretty much need Wraith-world, backed by RBU. Also Helpless to deal with Sam. Drawn to Its Power should probably be dropped. Non-fierce Nazgul aren't the best at killing in skirmishes (winning one is enough of a victory).

i could be wrong on this, so if i am, let me know, but when frodo gets corrupted, sam doesn't become the ring-bearer. only when frodo dies. so you might not need helpless.

That's right, but it stops a near-corrupted Frodo from being killed off for a clean Ring-bearer (assign a Nazgul to him and don't respond with Isildur's Bane), and also it prevents Sam SoH from removing burdens.

Which, might I add, is a very nice trick that catches some opponents off-guard.

Wow, thanks for the feed back. Now, I've use resistance becomes unbearable, and I can't ever get it to work, thus I never stick in wratih world. His terrible servants is great idea. I can't imagine why I never stuck it in there before. I really appreciate the help.

remember that if the ring-bearer is exhausted, and you play RBU, the ring-bearer still wears the one ring. even though you don't actually place an exertion, he is still exhausted after the cost/effect of exerting the nazgul to exert the ring bearer.

Otsea LoM could be worth a try, and as Kralik mentioned Morgul Gates keeps costs down. I'm actually not sure about the exact numbers of RBU and Wraith-world to run, though--not necessarily 4 of each.

Otsea LoM is a good idea in FotR block to give Wikkie that extra OOOMPH. Fell Beast works in Movie.
