They Are Coming and
Goblin Swarms.
Remove the 3 copies of
Ulaire Nertea, Messenger of Dol Guldur and replace with two copies of Ulaire Enquea. I would dump the two
Goblin Flankers and four Moria Scouts and replace with four Goblin Sneaks. These guys are great for getting that perfect site eight/site nine swarm with such a small draw deck.
Personally, I would remove the four Goblin Backstabbers and the four Goblin Scrabblers. Then add three Guard Commanders.
Now you are down to 34 cards with a guaranteed kick-#$&*@! last Shadow phase.
As for the good guys, you have to use
Gimli, Dwarf of Erebor with this deck. If you have that Cave Troll a little early, why not put him beneath your draw deck? Coupled with
Goblin Sneak, this guy will run the train. I have always found dwarves to be about endurance until card stacking came about, so:
Drop one
Gimli's HelmDrop one
Dwarf GuardDrop three Dwarven Armors
Drop three Hand Axes
Drop four
Flurry of BlowsDrop one
Till Durin Wakes AgainDrop two
Power According to His StatureAdd one
Greatest Kingdom of My People or Bilbo, Well Spoken Gentle-Hobbit
Add two
Gimli's Battle AxeAdd one
Dwarven AxeAdd one
Grimir, Dwarven Elder Add two Dwarven Hearts
Add two Bounders
Add one
There and Back AgainUse
Frodo, Old Bilbo's Heir.
Listen, when it comes to swarm, you have two copies of
Sting and so you'll do alright there. Your real concern should be Direct Wounding.
Hate destroys this deck.
But good luck!
