I remember there was a deck up on the old Cobra Cards forums that had Smeagol burned with
Saved From the Fire (I think) to draw evil Gollum cards and set up the stage for Sauron, Lord of the Rings. It used
Ulaire Nelya, Third of the Nine Riders to cycle evil burden adding sites (
Courtyard Parapet,
Pelennor Flat).
I can't remember the decklist, so here's my attempt at it. It does have way too many cards, so if someone could link me to the original article or critique it down that'd be of great help.
Play minions:*From Deep in Shadow x2
*It Draws Him x2
*Evil-Smelling Fens x4
*Sauron, The Lord of the Rings x4
Play Gollum:*Captured by the Ring x4
*Final Strike (also blocks manuever and archery events in case they kill Sauron)
*So Polite (adds twilight too)
*Fat One Wants It x2
*Gollum x4 --Gollum,
Skulker,
Gollum, Mad Thing,
Gollum, Threatening Guide*We Must Have It x3--can help Gollum in Skirmish or play him
Site Control and Twilight:*Ithil Stone*Led Astray x4
*So Polite*Ulaire Nelya, Third of the Nine RidersSITE:
Courtyard Parapet,
Pelennor FlatBurdens:*Heavy Burden x2
*Not Yet VanquishedExtra wounds:*Ulaire Enquea, Lieutenant of Morgul x3
*Promise Keeping x2
*Not This Time! x2
*Little Snuffler x2
*Horribly Strong x2 --seems weak, might cut this one, relies too much on burdens, and requires discarding Gollum.
*They Stole It*Treacherous Toad x3--blocks healing
Protect conditions + redraw cards:*Deceit x2
*Incited x2
Strength buffs: *Hobbitses Are Dead x4 (helps Nazgul, Sauron, and Gollum)
*Plotting x2 (also adds up to 9 threats before removing them, use to kill)
Wound prevention:*Final Strike x2
*Scepter of the
Dark Lord x2
*Sweeter Meats x2
Current worries: having hand choked with conditions and events and not enough minions. Being slain by over-archery or crazy manuever events (
Ithilien Blade -_-)
