This is the new Elven culture, which is small but marked by two main dynamics: some powerful, costly followers and mechanics built around Elves going back to Valinor (the discard pile). Let me know what you think! The only cultures we've got left to reveal are Gondor, Gollum, and an assortment of pre-Shadows minion cards.
