Sites
(0) Gates of Mordor (15S191)
(0) Fortress of Orthanc (11S241)
(0) Isenwash (13U193)
(1) Hill of Sight (12S188)
(1) Isengard Ruined (15U192)

(3) Mount Doom (15R193)
(3) City of Kings (13U187)
(3) The Prancing Pony (11S256)


Bid low, usually go first, play Pony and pull Glorfindel. Tokens on Elven Supplies with Uncertain Future, reinforce with Silver Ewer and make the brothers solid. Galadriel is hard to kill once Supplies is loaded, even with Ferny.

Shadow is good for keeping things moving slow, tokens on Deathly Roar with Fearless Approach means lots of exertions, invincibles and fortitude for wound prevention (you will probably want to throw in Rohan Uplands).

Any suggestions?

I like elf tokens better in expanded where you get access to Aragorn, DoFP and Agility, but at least pack Arwen, She-Elf. Maybe Gift of the Evenstar?

IDK, [Elven] tokens aren't really that powerful in standard, but don't let that stop you!

Not familiar with typical uruks at all, I never play beatdown unless it swarms, so I have no experience there.

I also think it's a shame to do a standard elf token deck when its true power lies in expanded... IMHO I don't think that elven tokens are enough to build a deck around in standard.

Ur deck seems like the usual beatdown elves with some tokens that don't make a difference.

I think you should really add at least strength of arms, arwen, she-elf and aragorn, defender of free peoples and then you'd have a truly powerful token driven deck.

Hmm I don't like the idea of playing You do not know fear and shadow conditions. I might be wrong, but if you play that with 3 uruks of the table, and there's only 1 free people condition, you have to complete the effect of the card, which is discard 3 conditions, and that would discard your own shadow stuff. Is this correct?

However, I think elves can do good in standard. Combining Gil Galad's ability with Leaving Forever can really result in some broken stuff...

You Do Not Know Fear has the potential drawback but I dont see it as a problem, conditions are present in all FP so its usually worth it.
