Posted the shadow. I would also like to have some suggestions on it as well. Use Lindenroot to cycle for the stuff the shadow needs.

Is 37 too big? Maybe 34 is okay.. 1x Abandoning Reason For Madness maybe..?

Do you need 3 Snows and 3 Spies? Or 1 less stormer?

On the FP side, Intimidate wouldn't be bad. Neither would another Gandalf, even instead of Have Patience. Six sources for Gandalf seems like a lot, but still can miss.

Modified deck above.

I think 3 Snows are essential, mainly for Lady of Ithilien. I dropped a copy of Greed, Spies of Saruman and also the 3x Uruk Stormers to leave it at 34 cards. So hopefully six Gandalf sources is enough. I really like to Have Patience, mainly for archery shadows.

Added 1x Uruk Captain, Lieutenant of Orthanc and Lurtz, SoI (The way I used to run it). 18 minions isn't many, but one or two a site is usually all twilight allows for anyway..

Comments/advice are welcome. This is one of two foil decks I will be keeping.
