Hey guys. Tried my hand at making an Elven Telepathy deck. Was going to use Galadriel, Lady Redeemed but our play group decided to house ban it and I don't feel like being a #$&*@!! :D Any way, here is the list, let me know what you all think.
STARTING:
Galadriel, Bearer of Wisdom
The One Ring, Answer to All Riddles
Arwen, Echo of Luthien
Glorfindel, Revealed in Wrath
COMPANIONS:
Gil-Gilad, Elven High King x1
Cirdan, The Shipwright x1
Sam, Son of Hamfast x1
Gandalf, Manager of Wizards x3
ARTIFACTS:
Gandalf's Staff x1
Agilos x1
Nenya x1
vilya, Ring of Air x1
Narya, Ring of Fire x1
POSSESSIONS:
Asfaloth x2
CONDITIONS:
Mallorn-Trees x4
Glimpse of Fate x2
Brooding on Tomorrow x1
EVENTS:
Forearmed x4
Stand Against Darkness x2
Company of Archers x2
Alliance Reforged x2
Curse Their Foul Feet! x2
I have paired this deck with Red Eye Besiegers for the possible 9-10 strength Forearmed. I haven't played this deck yet so I have no clue how well Mallorn-Trees and Arwen will do, but it seemed like a cool idea and a nice way to cycle cards that aren't needed since I'm not using Galadriel, LR. Let me know what you all think, open to any advice!

I'd ditch Mallorn-trees and Curse Their Foul Feet and change Arwen to maybe Fair Elf Maiden. You have a nice combo between Arwen and the trees, I'm just not sure it'll work as well as you'll need it tool. Also consider adding a few Banner of Elbereth to try and regain initiative after a fight.

Yeah you are probably right, there is just too much discarding/hand manipulation between Arwen and Gandalf. I have decided to drop the Arwen and Malorn-Trees out of the deck to make it more streamlined. That said, I am planning on making a deck that doesn't rely on Gandalf and Forearmed that will use Arwen and Malorn-Trees with a few other tricks, I'll post that deck list in a few days when I have it worked out. Any way, here is the updated list, let me know what you think.
STARTING:
Galadriel, Bearer of Wisdom
The One Ring, Answer to All Riddles
Arwen, Fair Elf Maiden
Glorfindel, Revealed in Wrath

Sam, Son of Hamfast x1
Gandalf, Manager of Wizards x3
ARTIFACTS:
Gandalf's Staff x1
Aiglos x1
Nenya x1
vilya, Ring of Air x1
Narya, Ring of Fire x1
POSSESSIONS:
Asfaloth x2
Banner of Elbereth x3
CONDITIONS:
Glimpse of Fate x2
Brooding on Tomorrow x1
EVENTS:
Forearmed x4
Stand Against Darkness x2
Company of Archers x2
Alliance Reforged x2
Curse Their Foul Feet! x2
I really like Curse Their Foul Feet as the other guys I play against mostly play orcs. The main differences are I dropped the Malorn-Trees for Banners, I also slimmed the deck down from 35 to 34 cards, I find that is the sweet spot for me in terms of deck size. Thanks for the feedback!

I feel like you don't have enough healing, Cirdan and Gil-Galad's exertions will add up, so will Gandalf's if you use his staff. Plus you'll need to keep Sam around if you're against corruption... Maybe switch Nenya for a couple copies of the other one: Ring of Adamant?
-
Yeah You are right, I played the deck last week and decided I needed another companion and some more healing. I changed out the ring, added Elrond, Venerable Lord, and Shadow Between. The deck is now 35 cards, what do you think?
