Well...tons of RB protection, which is important in a choke deck.
 
 
Hobbit Intuition can cancel a skirmish because its an original format, thus original rules. Don’t like it?  
 
 
Oh well...if you don’t like it, I can always just use it as a decent strength pump.
 
 
Power According to His Stature, of course, and Bounder can allow Frodo to fight without fear. With Sting and a Boudner, Frodo can stand up to a pretty tough minion. Heck, let him take the Balrog! (Just kidding).
 
 
The Dwarves cycle like crazy, and then choke the twilght as well. Any twilight you do get, you get removed with Sting (against Moria, which is the biggest threat in FotR, and against   and   orcs to!).
 
 
Orc-Bane and Here Lies Balin, Son of Fundin knocks off a whole bunch of Orcs/Uruk-Hai as soon as they hit the table. Basically, everything dies except Nazgul.
 
 
And then the Dwarves have nice healing. Plus, Gloin is a base 12 tank once you’re set up.
 
 
And Moria, just swarm like CRAZY!!!!!!! Pull the Goblin Scimitars from everywhere to draw tons of cards and add tons of twilight, if they get discarded, Plundered Armories! More cards!
 
 
And then with Goblin Swarms, swarm again and again until they die! Rule of 5 problems? Nertea takes ’em!
 
 
MUAHAHAHA!   |

  Add the popcorn smiley to your sig, help it achieve world domination.
 
What if the hokey pokey really IS what its all about?  
 
As I lay in bed staring at the stars last night, I thought to myself, "where the heck is the ceiling?"

| Gloin, Son of Groin isn’t Fellowship Block, unless you meant Gloin, Friend to Thorin? | 
 
In his eyes was the look of a hunted beast seeking some gap in the ring of his enemies.   |

I’ve never really liked Dwarves in FOTR block. Do you work well for you?
