This is my first Shire

deck ever so be gentle! Also I think I meant it to be standard, I believe it is... You have 3 tanks with Sam, Merry and Pippin. Sam can be a 14 without any followers, Merry is a base 16 with a follower and Pippin is a 13 with just a sword and can be boosted with the ring-bearer. Smeagol is to kill annoyances whenever they appear and helps cycle this slightly large deck.

I added burden removal to make sure that doesnt destroy the deck, however I dont have threat removing for Smeagol’s ability. I was thinking 9-fingered Frodo but what to take out? There is healing with The Gaffer and Fates Entwined.

Any thoughts?

Sweet! I was wondering how they got so huge, then I saw everyone knows. might consider adding quickbeam to use ent draught. make sure you have green dragon inn.

Drop one copy of Pippin, Bilbo, Community Living, and Hobbit Sword. Other than being on the large side, the deck looks good. Thumbs Up

I had to put something here.

I thought about changing Pippin for the RoS one so I can use Ent Draught and maybe Escape but I think 16 is big enough. I forgot to mention that No Visitors allows Bilbo to skirmish, remove burdens and then not actually fight! I also dropped a Where Shall We Go. I have also realised that Smeagol doesnt necessarily have to use his ability, two wounds can usually be enough! So I may switch him for Smeagol, Scout and Guide

And I think Hobbiton Farmer, Lover of Pipeweed gives me a use for Slunk out of Sight! If I had space for it...
