Hey all,
Funnily enough, I had this question to ask before I saw legolas3333's newest deck post that consists primarily of warg riders. I've recently encountered warg riders in my games and it's difficult to manuever around them--they totally frustrated my ring-bound rangers with their now useless ranger's bows. I thought about archery/wounding, but it's hard to take down such high vitality outside the skirmish phase. At least in the skirmish phase, their strength isn't too high to overwhelm generally and lack of damage bonuses makes them more of a nuisance than a threat, but I wanted to know the best way around this minion type from you pros ;)
Thanks!

Durin, Elendil, Glimpse of Faith, strength pumps, wounding decks (rohirrim guard and hardy garrison is nice).

I am no expert but these might help ....
Discard their mounts - Roll of thunder, Turn of the Tide, Iorlas, Something Draws Near
Increase the cost of their mounts - Taurnil, Iorlas
Exhaust them - A Rangers Versatility, Smeagol Always Helps

A Ranger's versaility is not a good idea as there are like 2 sites in movie that are river or forest

Keep in mind you can play skirmish events.
Or, take your damage and heal. I run a few copies of Banner of Westernesse in my Ring-Bound Rangers deck in Towers Block.

Yeah, you can just take damage and heal. I think that if you play RB Rangers, this deck I've made would easily beat wargs. If they take control of a site and try to use Wolves of Isengard, you could just discard them all before they exert with Smeagol.
