Still with Sam, SoH you can play them as they come into hand with no need to search them in the deck..

Choking from the get-go is going to be more important than waiting until they show up. But I do agree that Sam, SoH is awesome (painful for corrupting Shadows...)

Worst Boromir- Boromir, Defender of Minas Tirith
No way, he's amazing! Sure you've got to be a bit careful or else you'll throw out so much twilight you'll kill yourself, but he just screams awesomeness! A fully healed Boromir every turn? Just awesome!

the question is not whether he's bad, but whether he's the worst BOROMIR.
I would say he unquestionably is.

Are you kidding me? HOW is Boromir, DoMT worse than Boromir, Doomed Heir??

DoMT is actually a GREAT companion, if you know how to use him. Any companion that depends on having lots of possessions in order to work well isn't that great a companion.

Proud and Noble Man? I admit I've never used him, but he doesn't seem that great to me. And Destined Guide? Also not great (although I do have a deck for him!). In general, I'd rather have DoMT.

Alright Mr Lurtzy, if you want to come to Chicago and play your Doomed Heir/Guarded City deck against me, I'll be glad to show you how horrible that deck would perform.

Believe me, the easiest way to lose a game is to make your deck overcomplicated.

Worst Boromir- Boromir, Defender of Minas Tirith

Play in Fellowship block with Aragorn, HttWC you'll see how awesome he can be. I'm putting him in a deck along with some Bilbo twilight removing action with Consorting with Wizards. :)

Yes, but he's a reprint from Realms of the Elf Lords.

Yes, but I think that's what makes people not like it.  I personally don't like most of the reprints.  DoMT was great back in the day.. while still useful, I don't think it has the same impact.  He's the only new Boromir I don't use.  (Still might be equal to or better than PaNM though)

EDIT* only real reason PaNM is good is in IB decks to get some blades out asap.

Actually I did start in the Fellowship Block... but for some reason I forgot he was in it. I guess he wasn't important around where I played. :P

Cant believe no one has commented on my Aragorn choice... do you all agree with me that Captain of Gondor is the worst Gorn!?
