Lackey needs some cycling so the wonderful Gloin will be providing that. Orkish Invader is great. Unless you have no cards in hand, or your opponent knows your hand for some reason, they will ALWAYS have to target him. Doesnt even matter if you have a condition in hand or not, as its too much to risk it. Lackey combo's with Mumak Commander to cause death of annoying vitality 3 comps (Eomer, Eowyn, Legolas), and Expendable Servants lets you burn the Spurred to Battle to play more Lackey/Invader.

Possible changes are Orkish Camp for Unforgiving Depths, and Isengard Underling to recur Expendable Servants. Shame Orkish Smith is banned

This is a deck which could be a little bit bigger. Throw in another NPNS certainly (4 is so much better than 3! :hey:) and maybe some more token cards like Subterranean Homestead (which at least adds lots of tokens) and surely an Arod is what you want?

i've run a lot of dwarven cycling decks, and i have to say that i agree with thran, you want 4 NPNS, arod, and either subterranean homestead or another RUF. 4x RUF has proved potent enough with my decks. and i'd remove the linnar's and grimir's for 4x dwarven warrior. i've found them infinitely helpful.
