Tentacles in FotR

[LorienGuardian]

Hi, i'm building a FotR tentacles featured deck. only problem is that the only sites they can be possibly played is 2 and 4. was figuring that it would be a good idea to include a single Balrog, Flame of Udûn and then for card flow, 4x Goblin Runner, Scavengers and Scimitars. for tentacles i was kinda figuring like 3 or 4 Foul tentacles and 2 Huge tentacles, and lastly 1 or 2 Watcher in the Water.

So here goes:

1 Watcher in the water
2 Huge Tentacles
3-4 Foul Tentacles
4 Goblin Runner
4 Goblin Scavenger
4 Goblin Scimitar
1 The Balrog, FoU

What else ??

Threat of the Unknown, some vitality-wise goblins and the Goblin Armory/Relics of Moria combo to generate twilight. A fellowship of Dwarves, for card-drawing so you can set up a site-4 win.

4 Foul Tentacles.
4 Huge Tentacles.
2 Watcher in the Water.

I don't think this deck-style is particularly successful, but good luck with it!

I agree with ket_the_jet. The main problem you will face in FotR Block is choke decks. At site 4 maybe you will have which is too low do play enough tentacles.

And a bad draw will screw you up... its bad when you dont get good tentacles when opponent moves to 4, and afterwards cruises whistling. TEnctacles badle needed Evil Smelling Fens, but its not FotR block

Well i was more thinking of having a good goblin deck with only a few tentacles:
3 Foul tentacle
1 Huge Tentacle
1 Wacher in the water

I only need to draw a single foul tentacle to get the others ??
And yes am definately going for the armory/relics combo.

Not likes it's a tentacles only deck.. It's mere a nice feature

Well, if that is the case, Tentacle Swarm is still better. One Foul Tentacle gets you the other three and one Huge Tentacle. That gets you Watcher in the Water. But your goal with tentacles is to swarm...it's just...not a very successful deck-type.

You might want 3-4 Dark places. I personally run 4 Foul Tentacles, 1 Huge Tentacle, and 1 Watcher,  some cycling cards (Goblin Scimitar, They Are Coming, etc.) Frenzy, and all sorts of Moria Archers. It doesn't usually work, but it's tons of fun when it does.
