Pros
- Doesn't really care about your overpowered Durin or Cirdan
- FP nukes Nazgul and swarm
- Capable of corruption in a single turn
Cons
- Absolutely ruined by Besiegers (good job they arent movie meta...)
- A Light in His Mind is the worst card in the game to face
- Capable of some outstandingly unplayable hands that allow your opponent to walk from 4-7 untouched
-
Both sides are a bit large - at 40 cards draw consistency is going to be hard, but you do have the ability to discard cards in the fellowship to improve your hands.
If I were to cut anything, I might nix the following:
Free Peoples
1x Aragorn, KiE
1x Aragorn's Bow
1x Faramir's Bow
1x PATHS
Shadow
1x Grishnakh, OC - 4 of the unique minion can lead to hand clog, can be pulled back if necessary with ESF
1x Ulaire Enquea, LoM - can be pulled back with ESF
1x Gothmog's Warg - Combo-tastic - yes a one cost burden, but you are either holding onto it, or discarding it since you don't have the combo in hand.
1x Heavy Burden - Gollum doesn't survive often, particularly if using ESF
-
Thanks mate - yes good suggestions.
Have now had 5 games in a row where I haven't drawn a stormer till site 7+ (and not a single one in the game just played!).
Even accounting for gemps sometimes "interesting" shuffles, that tells me I need to cut the size down a fair bit!
Will give those a go and see. I'm a bit wary of going down to one of the bows in case of corsairs or dunland but I do think ultimately this will get more wins if I can get it down to more lime 34/34.

I would also agree with Merrick_H on cutting some cards out of your deck.
