Title: Shelob at Emyn Muil
Post by: Lausus on April 24, 2009, 01:08:42 PM: Is there a format that allows me to have Shelob, Last Child of Ungoliant (0P48) in a deck with Emyn Muil (1U360)? Or if I was just playing casually with a friend who did allow it, could I exert Shelob 7 times during the manuever phase even though she's already fierce? I believe I read you can pay the cost of cards and abilities (exerting) without benefitting from the effect (becoming fierce).

Using Ettenmoors you can exert eater of light or menace 7 times (+14 Strength), + her original strength of 8 = 22. :up:

Post by: Vroengard on April 25, 2009, 02:26:21 AM: Like playing orkish scout at any site 7, 8 or nine from the old sites :o :o

oh, 27 twilight to add while bearing an pesky mount, yap, that's fair.
OK offtopic, but as crazy as exerting an enduring shelob in skirmish....
Title: Re: Shelob at Emyn Muil
Post by: Kralik on April 25, 2009, 07:45:36 AM: At least it's not a base 22 strength... just one skirmish if she has the vitality.

Post by: Gil-Estel on April 25, 2009, 12:41:56 PM: Sudden Strike is a nice card...it helps you to set up an eater of light deck....back to the drawingboard.
