If you know me, I like hunters. This deck here is the most successful deck i have EVER used. I'm not saying it is invincible, but it is darn fun to play.

So, bid 0 it doesn't matter if you're first or second. In fact you kind of want your site 3 out so you may benefit by moving second. Either way, you want 3 threats at all times. site 3 makes that easier. I switched nimble warrior for fearless marksman. The healing offered by KiE and Hard-choice rounded the deck out a lot. Though it is a little harder to keep threats out, it isn't as crucial. That is why you have slaked thirst and lego's text. use preparations and slaked thirst with all the other wounding cards and viola! no one can stand up to you. unless they burden you to death. with only 3 comps you can choke like mad, and only double move if all the minions are dead and the twilight pool is nearly empty. (1 or 2 tokens.)
The shadow is a standard ninja gollum.

if you have Aragorn's Bow, Gondor bowmen is overkill, i would trade that out for Quick As May Be, you can also lose the elven cloak and maybe throw in some might of numenor for healing or Eowyn, Lady Of Ithilien to clean up
-
Those are good ideas, i will take issue on the elven cloak though. it doesn't seem like much but more than once already, it has meant the difference between archery death and healing at a sanctuary. You do raise a good point about the bowmen though. with slacked thirst and the bowmen, things did seem a little off kilter. Swapping them out for some healing cards or quick as may be is a good idea.

We wants it is better than having 4 copies of Gollum. I also like using Gollum, VC with threats.
-
if your going for wounding, why not switch to Gollum, DAD, also Final Strike is nice against Slaked Thrists
-
@c-work: I never have enough threats to make Gollum, VC work. I'm just not that talented.
@L333333333333333333333: Gollum DAD is not a bad choice. I just have never used mad thing before. I thought I would give him a try. he works pretty good. You would be suprised, how many players give you the str +3 bonus. What do you mean about Final strike? It is a good way to cancel slaked thirst?
Thanks for the suggetsions. i appreciate them.
-
4 copies of promise keeping and they stole it? how bout adding we must have it and slippery as fishes instead?
-
Final Strike can't cancel Slaked Thirsts as it is not a maneuver action, but event. I think you're pretty much a goner without Preparations and Slaked Thirsts so it might be a lot better if you started off with Feared Axeman and Fearless Marksman with maybe Frodo, RH as RB or even Galadriel, BoW with Elven Bow. Also, if you add more copies of Aragorn, KiE, you can more efficiently heal him as he exerts much more than Fearless Marksman. Why not use The Splendor of Their Banners?
