yes, i forget where it is on here,(probably the gamplay questions) but they can bear a ring while bearing the one ring. and it makes sense, they have ten fingers...
and it is not really a ring. (i know that sounds weird) but it doesn’t say "ring" in the part of the card that tells what type it is. so it’s really just a thing. so that is what the card game should be called Lord of the Things TCG. |
Check out my best article The Utterly Corrupt Corruption,

That’s what I thought, but I wanted to make sure.
Good stuff. |

Yup, there’s no rule against the Ring-bearer wearing another Ring. It’s quite common to see a Ring of Fury on Gimli, Bearer of Grudges against corruption decks, for example. |

Personally, I think it’s way too costly. Compared to The Ring of Rings, actually using The Binding Ring makes Gimli’s resistance less by four. IMO it is much better to have 4 copies of RoA (anyway, where will you get your strength bonuses from?)
and of course, Ring-bearer can wear ’another’ ring (who doesn’t play Nenya, Ring of Adamant on his/her Galadriel?) |

Hm...I’m thinking of a macho Durin idea.
4x Ring of Accretion
4x Ring of Fury
4x Ring of Guile
4x Ring of Retribution
4x Ring of Artifice
Heavy Axe
Hand Axe
Dwarven Bracers
Well-Crafted Armor
Arod, Rohirrim Steed
Book of Mazarbul
And then of course
Proud and able
Discard all the rings except one ring of artifice. Stack everything on Durin III. He is strength 37. |

I *could* use frodo, if that’s an issue. Esp. the 12 resistance one. Or I could use something like Proud and Able to give him more resistance.
It’s just an easier way to pull rings, but you are right, it is a bit costly. |

nice idea, but what will you do with 2 or more minions (or maybe something is missing in your deck) |
