I would try and tone it down. Only 9 wizards in 90 cards is too little,especially as I see little cycling in it.

Hi Linksys, welcome to TLHH :) I agree with Ringbearer that the deck could maybe be a bit smaller, depending on cycling. Here are some other ideas:

Shadow:
I'd recommend 3x Throne of Isengard, despite its uniqueness, as I find it imperative for Deceived Wizard decks. I also find Ugluk to be the best [uruk] hunter, so perhaps some more copies of him. Although A Shadow Rises fits in thematically with Deceived Wizards, I don't find it to be nearly as useful personally.

Fellowship:
Who is in the starting Fellowship by the way? If it's not Theoden, I'd recommend a stronger version (From ROTK onwards).
Throne of the Golden Hall and Leowyn are both solid choices for Rohan decks.

Also, Redhorn Pass can provide Deceived Wizards with a (somewhat weak) layer of protection against Namarie and Gladden Homestead.

my rohan deck is very different from that one.
