Merry’s a skirmish pump again!
Removing 2 cards from the game could become a steep cost if you use it too much, but he can boost anyone, and he basically has a built in Everything but My Bones. Of course, he does have to survive a skirmish first, but there’re enough ways to cancel skirmishes for hobbits, so that shouldn’t be a problem. |

Not the best Merry, but yet, he still can prevent Frodo being overwhelmed. A cool combo with the new Gandalf.
A 4 from me. |

I like him. he can remove whatever hobbit cards you discard for a +1 pump for each card essentially not bad. |

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. |

See, as a fellowship companion he should have an ability that could benefit everyone, and while it can help any companion you have to have to hobbit cards. This should be a merry that can work better in a rainbow fellowship.
well that’s my thought anyway. I’m still kind of sore about this fellowship thing not working to a better potential. |

Yeah. Providing a +3 pump instead if that companion is a fellowship companion, or removing only one card from that game if adding the strength +2 to a fellowship companion, or SOMETHING like that would have been an easy addition, and all it takes is something simple like that for each of the nine fellowship companions’ gametext, and it would actually be a USEFUL keyword.
Still, this isn’t a bad companion...but the cost IS a bit steep, so it only gets a 3 from me. |

Wow! Very powerful at site 9... I sometimes have 20 cards in the discard pile, so that’s 20 extra strength for the RB. Daddy Twofoot + No Visitors ensures that Merry can use his ability.
