Alright, I think I've given everyone long enough to join. With the odd number of 11 contestants...let's get this party started! :hey:
For you first challenge, I want you to design a deck around the following rarely (if ever) used cards:
As with all decks in this contest, your deck must not just
contain these cards, but actually USE them in a useful way.
Rules more specific to this round:
- You can use as many or as few copies in your deck as you wish (within LOTR TCG rules, of course), but you must include at least one copy of
Merry IH and
Pippin HoA in your deck. You may focus whatever strategy you decide to go with on just one or the other, or on both; that's up to you. But again, each must have at least one copy in your deck.
- Because these cards are both from the Tower block, your deck can be Tower Block format, Movie Block format, or Expanded format, but other formats (Fellowship, King, Standard) are obviously out. Please do NOT use Open, as I'd prefer to cut down on the possibilities of vastly overpowered or outright
broken decks. Whichever format you choose, you may obviously include any other eligible cards in your deck, obeying the X-list, R-list, and other established rules for that format.
- For this round, a Shadow side and sitepath are purely optional. If they benefit your Free Peoples side in some way, then it's probably best to include them, even if you only include details on specific Shadow cards and/or sites as opposed to a full listing of cards. But the only requirement is a Free Peoples decklist, with as much or as little detail on the cards therein as you want to take the time to type up.
Though you can make your deck as bland as you wish, remember that this is a CONTEST, so the more detail and the more "flair" you include in your deck and descriptions, the better, more than likely, for your chances of winning that round.
We'll allow a full week for this first round, though if all submissions are in before then, we'll obviously start voting early, and if more time seems to be needed, we'll talk about extending the deadline. But for now, please PM your final deck to me by
12:00 midnight (EST), Friday, July 18th.
If you have not signed up and still want to join, you can still offically join in this thread...but all you really HAVE to do is send me a deck by the deadline. Doesn't matter if you're officially in or out: I'll accept any deck I recieve. Don't be shy!
If you have any questions or concerns with the deck, deadline, or anything else, please don't hesitate to PM me or e-mail me at DainIronfoot47 AT hotmail DOT com.
Good luck, and happy deckbuilding!
