Drop the grey wizard and put in either manager of wizards, the grey pilgrim (preffered) or friend of the shire folk

Well, as for Freeps, expanding the Deck to 9 fixed comps would be a good choice. Also, I prefer Brooding on Tomorrow over Deep in Thought, I'd really put some initiative cards in here. First of all, Faramir, SoD as a backup fighter and then Garrison of Gondor with Hardy Garrison. replace Greenleaf with Fearless Marksman to make that theme even better. I usually run Isildur as RB and Gimli, Feared Axeman so I don't need Faramir anymore to spot. You may also Consider replacing Elessar Telcontar with King in Exile for more healing.

I understand why you took atar as ring, but adding Ring Of Retribution seems a bitlike overkill to me.  Sam as only backup plan against Corruption is then prett few by having just 5 resistance, which is an easy win for every Corruption Deck. I'd also think Turn Of The Tide doesn't really work well together with Slaked Thirsts, I suggest dropiing those two, drop Fell Deeds Awake and add Roll of Thunder, Terrible and Evil and Barliman Butterbur, Prancing Pony Proprietor. Whatever way you might go, these 3 Gandalf cards are those I highly recommend to you.

Shadow is good, pretty much the Sauron Grind I play in real life.

The Freeps looks fine and needs just a bit of improvement (e.g. Slaked Thirsts and Turn of the Tide) butthe Shadow seems very good to me. I give it a 4.

I can't give this a very high rating. For direct wounding decks of this sort, I think your best bet is to start Gimli, Bearer of Grudges, Legolas, Dauntless Hunter, Pippin, Wearer of Black and Silver, and Merry, Friend to Sam.

You can pack Shadowplay and Unheeded and drop all of the [Gandalf] stuff.

Ring of Fury instead of Ring of Retribution.

A copy of Shake off the Shadow wouldn't hurt.

Where are your four copies of Gondor Bowmen? And you extra Faramir, Son of Denethor?

As for the Shadow, I can't give this a very high rating either because you are missing Grishnakh, Orc Captain and even Orc Seeker for extra drawing power.

Overall, I'd say it is a 2.
