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...
