As the physical cards are getting harder to find these days, I gathered a large physical collection of common and nostalgic decks to play with family and friends as a pre-built game. I'm posting these decks as a reference and for feedback/discussion to improve on them. The decks are split into free peoples and shadow sides, all interchangeable at 35 cards each. There are some obvious drawbacks in doing it this way, but it is 100% worth it to allow mixing/matching and keeping each game unique and interesting. The idea is to make thematic and fun strategies while maintaining a balance. These are built with physical cards, so any in the $100+ range are not always going to make it in for their high costs and to maintain balance among the decks. I include cards from the Expanded format and rules, but some decks might also fit into other formats. This is one of those decks:
[Men] Men Beatdown - Shadow (Expanded)
I wanted to make an incredibly versatile Evil Men deck. It leaves you with a lot of options for countering different Free People strategies.
Minions:
The Mouth of Sauron, Messenger of Mordor x3
Saruman, Coldly Still x3
Armored Easterling x4
Easterling Dispatcher x4
Easterling Shield Wall x4
Rampaging Easterling x4
Possessions:
Pavise x3
Poleaxe x2
Grima's Dagger
Henchman's Dagger x3
Conditions:
Countless Companies x2
Lathspell x2
I would love to hear any feedback/suggestions.
