Title: Get Off the Road!
Post by: Kralik on September 21, 2010, 05:33:17 PM
Anyone have a good idea of a Movie decklist for this card? I tried pairing it with my discard Freeps but the idea failed spectacularly. :P I was thinking something like Sauron discard crew + The Ring Is Mine! and burden-adding Nazzies. Maybe even Mordor Fighter + Gorgoroth Stormer. Seems like my first try was too many combos to pull off.

Here's my failed "throw it together in five minutes" try. Yes, it is big (35):

3x 7R211 Ulaire Cantea, Faster Than Winds
2x 1U231 Ulaire Enquea, Lieutenant of Morgul
4x 8C101 Gorgoroth Stormer
2x 5R100 Grishnakh, Orc Captain
3x 7R286 Mordor Fighter
3x 1C268 Orc Inquisitor
2x 5U107 Orc Patrol
2x 10R95 Orc Slaughterer
4x 1R244 Desperate Defense of the Ring
2x 1R245 Desperate Measures
4x 3U88  Get Off the Road!
4x 10U97 The Ring Is Mine!

Do you remember any details?

The more I think about it the more I start to believe that Desperate Measures is much better: no need to play a Nazgul, guaranteed 5 cards. But I wanted to give it a shot.

But apparently it was a Nazzie/Sauron combo deck, which is what I am curious about.
I also wonder if anyone has tried Too Much Attention / Twilight Nazzie combos.

I did, back in fellowship block.  I combined Twilight Nazgul with Isengard Orcs (especially Isengard Warrior) to try and get lots of wounds and discard cards.  I think I was playing Stricken Dumb, Cantea, and Return to His Master as well to try and kill off the ring-bearer.  I played it with a dwarf discard deck to enhance Too Much Attention so hopefully they wouldn't have anything to play once I played Return to His Master.  It didn't work all that well.  It took too much to set up and didn't get the right cards at the right time.

I was getting rather excited until I read this line. :P

When it would work, it worked awesome.  But when it failed, it was really bad.  Fellowship block was tough on twilight nazguls with Flaming Brands and DoE everywhere.  I'm thinking of trying to make another go at it.  So if you see the topic in Fellowship, see if you can give me some pointers.

Well, the idea was pure discard, but still seems hard to manage. Lots of potential, hard to do. ;)
