(Currently) an all C/U Evil Man deck utilizing new cards from Hunters and Last Days for a mega swarm!!
--- end description ---


So I was bored quite frankly. I decided to build a quick deck and went into my C/U box to look at possible combos. I quickly put together a deck with no rares, expecting to put rares into it later, but tested it, and it kicked butt. Here’s the (working) deck list:

Courageous easterling x4
bold easterling x4
easterling scout x4
last days x4
man of bree x4
rampaging easterling x4
crazed hillman x4
goaded to war x2
lying counsel x2
caravan from the south x2

It’s pretty simple to see the strategy. Get Last Days out, play a Courageous, Bold, Scout, etc., then discard them to bring out lots of minions. You can also use lying counsel to return cards to hand for an uber strong fierce man of bree. I’m probably going to add in some higher cost minions to soak up some extra twilight, but for a quick, working deck, what do you think?

Advice appreciated,
PW

Looks nice! I often swarm people with my Men stragglers deck without tring, i just happen to have a hand full of cheap minions!

Why no legion of harad? It’s a strong, cheap minion.

Thanks EL Very Happy

I have to play with it a bit more, but Legion of Harad might be a worthy addition. Stragglers too.

Nice...but what’s Caravan From the South there for? Although it would work very nicely with Stragglers...

It’s mainly there so I can get rid of possessions, and then in turn get to play cheap minions that win.

If you want to add in stragglers, i suggest dropping the two lying counsel, you’re main objective is getting to the r-b, even though the combo with Man of Bree is pretty nice, and possibly drop the goaded to war. Just my opinion. And Caravans with Stragglers is a must. What’s the point of even playing Stragglers if you can’t get 4 tokens on each? Wink

Mouth of sauron is a fair addition. He helps set you up, and is relatively cheap.

I just might drop all 4 of those and add in 3 Stragglers and another Caravan From the south. Sound good?

Sounds pretty good, as long as you’re sure you can get enough twilight.

That’s the only problem. I think I’ll playtest a bit more and then make the final decision.

Have you thought about using Pursuing Horde?
