After getting bored with my ninja gollum deck, which seems to take care of itself, I've decided to embark on a greater challenge.
I'm trying to run two isengard conditions: Worry and Alive and unspoiled. My goal is to set up potential for corruption but the main goal is to get enough burdens to utilize Alive and unspoiled to its full potential.
My fellowship side doesn't really matter, I'm just running a cycle-heavy shire hobbit deck.
I've tried mixing some urukhai that are able to play with assignments, insuring lots of won skirmishes, alongside gollum for extra burdens with little success. I even tried twighlight nazgul. Disaster.
Any ideas? Perhaps it would work better in a different block?
I suppose I haven't tried running easterlings alongside just enough urukhai to get the conditions out, but at that point I might as well just run easterlings and forget the conditions.
Maybe I ought to just move on and run sauron besiegers like everyone else.

No one would call Worry useless, but Alive and Unspoiled is pretty bad news. There are just so many better discard cards for [Isengard]...why are you trying to make Alive and Unspoiled work?

Good question. Lol. I don't particularly know.

The problem is, FP will already have their characters and gear out by the time you get to use AAU. So the best you'll accomplish is getting rid of some skirmish events or their Shadow cards. Is that really worth removing [3]?

I think the best thing you can try to do with Alive and Unspoiled is to remove all minions from your opponent's hand or cards you don't want in your opponent's hand. I wouldn't use worry with it. There are easier ways to add burdens. Pair that with a fast-moving fellowship that uses stuff like Drawing His Eye, Halls of My Home, and What Are We Waiting For? and you could have some fun playing.

That's a far better idea. I still don't have a good sense of what cards are good and whatnot, so pointers like that are helpful.
