Wounding. Most  wraiths come into play exhausted. Wound enough of ’em, and the FP player can’t stop it. Also, exerting events. Yes, this will trigger enduring, but eventually, the FP player will have to exert non-wraiths...like Frodo! |

| Almost all wraiths deck may use Swept Away and Stronger and More Terrible. So find a way to condition discard or gain intiative to null Swept Away. Also if you have an archery deck you can force your opponent to load up Frodo with wounds since the exhausted wraiths cannot take wounds with swept away. |

use troll swarm!  actually, you can use any big minions to put a wound on their wraiths, since their almost always exhausted, all you need is one wound to kill them.
or you can just use the new ninja gollum deck that pipeweed posted to add threats so they cant play their precious wraiths (bc most wraiths need to add threats to be played)
or you can go evil men archery, they usually have low vitality so just wound them to death with archery (it shouldn’t take more than 6 archery per turn for 3 turns to eliminate their wraiths and aragorn)
hope this helps or gives you an idea |

trolls are worthless against gondor wraiths with swept away even if they don’t win they don’t take wounds. eventually threats might add up but they might have gandi with CtG. co. removal would work or overload with archery fi they have swept away down they will have to put it on frodo. |

I think Ninja Gollum is the way to go here. Now, it can’t always stop your opponent from playing wraiths, because Aragorn, Driven By Great Need takes those threats away. However, Not This Time! and the other new Ninja cards just feed off of threats!
Shelob, Her Ladyship is another reason to choose Ninja G, and not just because she’s enduring too. |

| Corsairs w/ War Galley to grab initiative (or for that matter... Underfoot Swarm would work wonders... especially with those guys that when assigned, deal a wound if you have initiative). Also Archery of any sort would be great... Evil Men would do fine.. maybe with a splash of those Morcs that add 2 to the archery total when you can spot threats. |
Marcus: Our Snow Balrog would be a lot more impressive if it didn't keep melting.
Jason: Maybe if we used a little less lighter fluid...? |

I think I would agree with CG if you get the cards that wound wraiths, you can kill them off easy, I can’t think of the title, but there are a fe  orcs that say, shadow: exert this minon to wound a companion, there are others also, look for them. |
