| shouldn’t it be "en garde!" wait, but then you would have to have a monster free peoples side. But moria does cycle like mad. |

En garde!
I play a 35 card Moria deck, and it works perfectly. It’s a lot easier to set up the swarm and play your vital conditions when you don’t have to go through 104 cards.
So don’t say that a Moria deck under 45 cards isn’t serious, because I have played Moria since Day 1 and my deck never went about 40 cards.
Touche!

Well, strategically speaking, moria makes 4 great swarms. That is, uses all it’s got, even freeps cards with they are coming to exhaust hold-back cards like PATHS and gondor bowmen. That means, 36 cards. Along with the miny-swarms and condition set-ups, that easily takes us to 50 cards at least.
On the freeps side, the afore-mentioned one utilizes with the afore-mentioned ways and without holding back in using/discarding about 6 cards per turn. Supposing we have 5 turns with the double moves, that is another 30 cards in the discard pile. In total, 80 out of 100 cards used.
As an old player of Moria, you know that having a large discard pile of minions and weapons is vital to its techniques. Conditions are set up and not discarder unless needed, and a wider selection of minions and weapons is available.
HA! Charges High.

Erm, eh? I didn’t really understand anything you said there... 4 swarms = 36 cards and conditions make 50? Eh? 
I’m not saying that a Moria deck can’t have over 40 cards, I’m just saying that you are wrong when you say that a Moria swarm deck isn’t serious if it has less than 45 cards. That’s really one of the dumbest statements I’ve heard in regards to LOTR TCG.

Lame-o. You still need to either backup your statement or back down. Take a look at the Moria swarm decks posted anywhere, and I think you’ll find that the vast majority of them use less than 45 cards.

I played a 30 card Moria Tank with Elf Archery as my very first deck. (Goblin Patrol Troop, Goblin Flankers, Goblin Spear, etc). It did decent. Then I ran a 42/42 Dwarf/Moria swarm deck that decked out at site 7. (Talk about cycling, it only decked out if the guy was able to survive 15 minions at site 4, then again at site 5. Even when I decked out, I usually had enough minions on Goblin Swarms to set up a site 9 shadowkill.
Now I run a 35/35 Three Hunters/Moria Swarm that doesn’t deck out except vs NPE. So, you can have Moria under 45 cards. |

Thanks NBarden! Just more proof that Moria doesn’t need 45+ cards. That’s all I wanted to prove, that Moria can have more than 45 cards, but it is not necessary in every circumstance.
