Start Gloin, Pippin and Aragorn. Get Arwen with Prancing Pony and your fellowship is up and running. Beef Gloin up and win skirmishes. Than put as much shadow under your deck as possible. Shadow is designed to bomb the fellowship with burdens. Fellowship is tough enough to survive some.

You want a hand like this: 4x LttG, Gollum, Host of Moria and at least 1 other goblin. You want a deck that has cycled. All shadow back in the deck and that discard your topcards. Not rarely you will add a lot of burdens, when done well you will add at least 10 burdens, which is in most cases enough.

Was that your deck in Bayreuth?

Thanks for your comment... it is the first here... have a

Yes this was my deck. It did fairly well. Basti knew this deck however, Madgoblin knew this deck and that is what kills it. If you know it, you can arm your self. Keep frodo exhasuted, run like crazy.
I had som bad luck, and maybe I should have known better than to run a deck that is great fun to play, but a bit risky too. I played 5 games, lost 3. 2 due to preknowledge, 1 due to a 14 resistance Isildur. 6 from isildur, 2 for the ring, 3 for artifacts, 1 from IB, 1 from the Horn, 1 for Elendil....
