Wound and burden the ring-bearer to the death

A nazgul corruption engine based on Shapes slowly advancing is really fun.  I just need some more ideas on how to make it work better.
 
 
Decklist (40 Cards)
 
The Witch-King, black lord x4
 
lingering shadow x2
 
surrounded by wraiths x2
 
dark temptation
 
ulaire attea, second of the nine riders x2
 
ulaire enquea, sixth of the nine riders x4
 
ulaire cantea, black assassin
 
shapes slowly advancing x2
 
stronghold of minas morgul x2
 
sense of obligation x3
 
ulaire nelya, black-mantled wraith x3
 
trap is sprung x2
 
Gollum, Dark as darkness
 
Captured by the ring x4
 
ulaire toldea, winged sentry x2
 
Morgul brute x3
 
Dark fell about him x2
 
 
Strategy
 
Basically, just play whatever you have.  Shapes slowly advancing is an awesome combo with surrounded by wraiths and the Witch-king, black lord.  You can wound and burden the ring-bearer like crazy, thanks to Gollum, Dark as darkness, Stronghold of minas morgul, the Witch-king, Black lord, and Morgul Brute.  Add burdens with Lingering shadow,dark temptation, sense of obligation, trap is sprung, and dark fell about him.
 
 
I also included a Gollum splash. Gollum, dark as darkness works the best for this strategy, with the bonus wounds on the ring-bearer.

That sounds cool. It would make Shapes slowly advancing a lot more dangerous.   |

Spied from above is a must
 
have 4 shapes slowly advancing you want to get one fast and if they discard one keep going.
 
have 3 Surrounded by wraiths to.
 
otherwise looks good.
 
oh to cut to put in those cards
 
1-2x captured by the ring |

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.   |

juste for a brief point of comparison (my version is discard, not corrupt at all... but it still can be adjusted)
 
 
the deck I won PSQ Avignon and Nimes in 2005 + 3 online top8, paired with elves/white arrows of Lorien
 
could be now played with mellon
 
 
4x shapes slowly advancing
 
3x spied from above
 
2x minas morgul answers
 
3x prevent a wound to a nazgul
 
4x ulaire enquea, thrall of the one
 
4x ulaire nelya, enduring
 
3x ulaire toldea enduring
 
3x ulaire cantea enduring
 
2x ulaire otsea shadows
 
2x the witch king, captain of the nine riders
 
2x ulaire attea enduring
 
4x between nazgul and prey
 
 
= 36 cards |

| Did you say an online Tournament? that sounds cool. I don’t like doing online TCG, mostly ’cause of the cost. |
