Pull Aragorn with the Prancing Pony, use bouncing hobbits with Shadowplay to kill everything. Use the exertions from Rohan later on to survive with Eored Captain. Faramir, BoQ makes sure you can always kill with Merry, WoBaS and Eowyn, LoI can mop up if your out of options. Dark Horseman is countered by having a wizard out, and Terrible and Evil blows up any nasty Nazgul. I need threat removal.

Shadow is basic Forestguls.

  Have you consider to use some Unheeded for extra killing power?

  If you have a problem with threats maybe a couple of Nine-fingered Frodo and the Ring of Doom or Hearts Raised can help you out. I think the first option is better considering that a exert on your hobbits isn´t that much  :up:

   I think that Windfola isn´t a good horse for Eowyn. I would say that Brego is far more useful since he heal when played, cost less twilight, don´t have to exert twice (which is no good for LoI) and your opponent will probable not discard it cause if he/she does you can discard Merry and get him back healing Eowyn again!  :up:

   If you have room maybe add a couple of Strength of Spirit cause you can use it to wound more with Eowyn, discard more conditions with Firefoot or just prevent some aimed exertion...

Unheeded/Daddy Twofoot rocks massively. Seriously. Brego and Strength of Spirit aren't standard legal...so he can't stick 'em in the deck. I'd drop Eowyn (way overrated :P ) for Rohirrim Guard, then run Hardy Garrison and have a blast with the stuff that comes after it. You're softening up the minions quite well, pack Hardy Garrison to finish them, and Unheeded as well. Love Eomer's Spear.

I'm always a fan of tossing in Rumil, Silvan Elf in a deck like this, and would actually start him over Gandy, and instead run Powerful Guide so that you can lose initiative once more. Nothing funner than losing initiative with Hardy Garrison to konk Rohirrim Guard's skirmish, then using Powerful Guide's ability to knock another one off.

So...I'm suggeting...

Cut-

Eowyn
Leader of Men
Windfola
Terrible and Evil (overcosted, no use in standard, was good with shotgun enquea was running around).

Add-

Rohirrim Guard
Powerful Guide
Unheeded/Twofoot
Hardy Garrison
Rumil

Forestguls are awesome, no comment here.

I'd cut Firefoot if it'd make room for another Unheeded and a Rohirrim Guard.

Because what are the chances of drawing Eomer before it and his spear anyways?
