This is actually the decklist I’ve used against AP, with much success. I paired it with Infi Gandalf, but I think I’ll use it for Standard too. I love Corsairs!
Conditions
4x Under Foot
Events
3x New Strength Came Now
Minions
3x Castamir of Umbar
4x Corsair Boatswain
3x Corsair Marauder
3x Corsair Ruffian
Possessions
4x Black Sails of Umbar
3x Corsair Ballista
3x Corsair War Galley |

| I would switch New Strength Came Now to Wind That Sped Ships. It’s cheaper, can give the same amount of strength, and is re-usable. |

Yeah, that’s one of the changes I was contemplating. After all, with Castamir, it’s easy to reinforce tokens. Actually, when I played AP, I had Harsh Tongues instead of Corsair War Galley. Needless to say, it didn’t work. Man, the tokens pile up fast, though! I think at Site 7 (when I dropped the C-Bomb  ) I had 5-6 tokens on each of my two Black Sails of Umbar. |

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.  |

| Basically, what I did was played corsairs early on to reinforce tokens on Black Sails of Umbar. Especially Castamir, because of his ability to reinforce 4 tokens by using his gametext to play a corsair like Corsair Ruffian. Then, late in the game, I used Black Sails to grab those corsairs from the discard, and combined that with the baddies in my hand. There was a bit of fancy token-maneuvering there, too. |

5-6 on each? That’s an understatement. You had about 4 on one and around 8 or 9 on the other. |

Well, I guess it worked the same. Actually, I probably should have balanced it out more. But it worked the same. I love Corsair Ruffian and Castamir. |

Actually, it can be smart to not have them all have the same amount of tokens. I always try to load one up to 7 to play Castamir for free, but the rest are usually lower - some are 5 tokens so that the Marauder is free, so 3 so that the Plunderers (great minion!) are free, etc. |

| Hmm, Corsair Plunderer...I’ll have to consider using him. |
