Which deck strategies am I missing?
« on: September 21, 2015, 11:29:07 AM »
Hey guys,

I mostly play LOTR tcg offline with my friends with my personal decks. I have most cards from Sets 1-13+19 (not much from 5) but nothing from 14-18 (except Merry + Pip from 17). I don't play 'formats'; my friends and I just have fun with whatever cards I have.

I have 16 decks made, and want to make more but I've run out of ideas for Freeps, and almost Shadow too. Could you all tell me which strategies you think I'm missing?

Boromir RB/Aragorn WTG Choke + Dunlending Site Control
Denethor SotC/Knights/Fortifications + Sauron Mount Doom Roaming Uruks
Galadriel RB/Elven Archery + Enduring Nazgul with Toil events
Shire with Gaff/Guests allies + Moria Swarm
Isildur RB/Knights Tank + Ringwraith Morgul Orcs
Ithilien Rangers (with plenty AR and Man the Walls) + Easterling Burdens
Army of the Dead + Mordor Besiegers Site Control with 2 copies of Sauron
Ents Tank (8 comp starting fellowship) + WotR block Uruk-Hai
Gimli RB/Durin III Choke + Corsairs
Gandalf RB/Radagast/Gandalf Men + Southron Threats
"Elvent" (Cirdan+Galadriel) + Watcher in the Water
Rohirrim w/Gandalf LoM and Hearken to Me + Isengard Archers
The Three Hunters + Uruk Trackers
Rohan Villagers + Isengard Site Control
Frodo/Sam/Smeagol/Legolas SoT + Ninja Gollum/Shelob
Dwarven Discard + Mordor Tracker Discard

I'm mostly looking for Freeps strategies (although I'll take any suggestions for either); I've already made the Shadow side of two more decks (set 5 Warg-riders, set 6 Isengard engineer wounding orcs). I really hate the post-Movie Shadow races, so I'm not looking to make decks with them (despite the one Uruk deck I have already).

Any help will be very appreciated!

Also with Smeagol decks, do you think it's better to set it up with him discarding himself at any time of danger, or making him a tank with 4x Poor Wretch and 4x There's Another Way

What I can think of:

Freeps:
Dauntless Hunter (archery, combat, stealth)
Last Alliance
Help in Doubt and Need
Solo Smeagol (HERE with Poor Wretch, TIAW etc.)
Trust Me
Shoulder to Shoulder
Direct Damage (with Slaked Thirsts, TaE, Eowyn LoI etc)

For shadows:
[Orc] Troll Swarm
[Orc] Corruption
[Men] Archery
[Men] Stragglers
[Wraith] Forest Nazgul
[Moria] Archers
[Raider] Beasterlings (Easterlings with Raider Bow, Polearm and Small Hope)
[Wraith] Threat Nazgul
[Wraith] Steed Nazgul (preferably on King block sites)
Corruption in general.
