Any good? Anyone find this one as competitive? Any pros or cons?

Use Thorongil, he's a ranger and can be pulled with the Prancing Pony. Faramir's Bow won't work with RB Faramir unfortunately so its a bit of a waste in here. I fear you wont have enough discarding to cope as you will be putting out a lot of twilight each turn with The Faithful Stone, Houses of Healing and the fortifications.
Take out 1 Her Ladyship and put in Eater of Light to pull a Web. I have never been convinced by Hopeless, but if you can make him work go for it!

Actually Faramir's Bow, Ithilien Longbow is in there mostly to make him an archer.
About Thorongil, he was in the original blueprints of the deck, but I removed him when Aragorn's Bow, Ranger’s Longbow came into the picture. That was supposed to be one of my solutions to not being able to discard all the minions in maneuver. And that would probably be a lot of threats plus God forbid Faramir had to fight. :S
Thus the idea with Aragorn, Driven by Need.
But your comments are noted. ^^ And I thank you for them.
And I agree with swapping one Shelob. ;)
-
RB Faramir is not a ranger so he cannot bear that bow.

Omg, I might as well be blind. :S
Didn't notice it until now.
Any idea what to pop in the bows place?

I would have definitely called you out for that on GCCG.
-wtk
The Faramir not being a ranger thing? And I would have appreciated you for doing so. You would point out a massive flaw in my deck. But it is still not like missing the WHOLE text of a card. ;)
That is why I post decks here first, people might find my mistake. It is in human nature to make mistakes, we are not godlike. But lets not bring the discussion from another topic here. :)

I think you have a good balance of wounding and discarding to be honest. But use Thorongil honestly. You have the fortifications so you can ditch RB Faramir and use Frodo with Sting, Elven Long Knife to remove threats. Now you can start
Faramir, Captain of Ithilien
Gondorian Prowler
Pippin, Wearer of Black and Silver
-
i would take out at least 2, possibly 3 copies of sauron and add hidden even from her and deceit x1-2
EVERY ninja gollum deck needs at least 3 maybe 4 copies of deceit because namarie and other nasty cards can destroy your shadow without them.
-
Final strike is good option vs. namarie and ithil stone, so i would add couple of those.
-4 sauron
+2 final strike
+2 deceit
also couple Ulaire Enquea, Duplicitous Lieutenant would be good for critical condition discard.
