| Hey, with that new Gandy condition that chokes twilight, the Board is Set might prove to be very needed. |

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you.  |

| The weight of a legacy might have been okay at the time with the limited number of companions and deck types. |

| Actually, that card is great, but not for a double-move. Imagine playing that, discarding most of your hand, having your opponent take Shadow cards into hand, and then not double-moving! It would only work so often, but your opponent would have a completely clogged hand, and you would be able to reconcile your hand completely! |

Booya!
Oh, and it does have some use. I think when they made that everyone was complaining about how good rohan was. They made a lot of let Rohan double move cards. |

| Hehe. I actually did that before in a 6 person multi. They were mad. |

Can anybody make a list of what they think the 10 most useless rares are?  |

This should be divided into Free Peoples and Minion. Almost all free peoples rares are somewhat usable because you can make the deck to use them. Therefore I think they have an advantage of not being as useless as minion cards especially ones that require specific things to occur.
Free Peoples
Well met indeed is 5 twilight requires a rainbow deck and is an event where sent back makes this card pretty bad.
Bilbo Baggins, Retired Adventurer just not that great now that we have Bilbo companions.
Sam, Frodo’s Gardener Play sam’s pack?
No Mere Ranger there are just way better pumps at this point.
Make light of burdens. Wouldn’t be too bad if you didn’t have to discard 3 cards from the top of your drawdeck.
Minion
No Refuge has great potential but how many dunlanding guys stack and if you know that is what they are going to do you just don’t let the stacking guys stack.
The weight of a legacy is bad. This should have played to the support area, as is even the condition removing deficiency of Gondor can get rid of this.
Men of Harad is not great. It would be better with some more southron swarm potential.
Why shouldn’t I keep it? Discard Bilbo? Doesn’t work against the ring-bearer and you have to be fighting Bilbo.
Goblin Archer way too much twilght. He is a minion which makes him playable, he makes the fellowship archery total negative 6 but still he is only 4 strength and the three vitality would help with the archery total anyway as he could soak up two wounds. |

You should keep in mind that a lot of the cards you listed (especially the Freeps ones) were great in their day, and have just been superseded by newer cards. No Mere Ranger is still good in FOTR.
And No Refuge is pretty much a Dunland staple...and let me see you stop those minions from stacking. It’s pretty hard to do. Anyway, stacking Dunlendings is basically the way they fight. |
