Freeps is pretty obvious, use initiative and events to win skirmishes. The shadow is made to get a corsair swarm then drop sauron as well for really cheap with his toil.

Nice. Clever pairing too. Corsairs are still very effective, annoying to play against and they all have 2 vitality except the ally discarder. So Sauron is great to play with them. Could pair it with Grimbeorn fellowship as well, since you have a few high strength minions, if all fails....

Is a very good card yes, but then you need Corsair War Galley as well.

... which can be included in this Deck very easily!

Maybe cut the Corsairs to 3 copies of each, and as for freeps,I always wanted to have such a Deck in real cards, but Eldarin Lord and Celebring are nearly impossible to get. And when we're on it, maybe Back to the Light and I'd also add High King of the Noldor.

hang on, you have only 7 events in your freeps, add some still neede or something to help out the brothers.

concerning that you play fighting elves, i'd run the ring of rings instead of the great ring. ;)

And where is Arwen She-Elf? With events played and Silver Ewer you are going to add tokens my friend!

Let's say I don't have Throne of the Dark Lord. What would you recommend I replace it with?

Makes sense. Now I'm just a couple of cards away from completing the deck with real cards for playtesting. :D

Hm...now that I look at it, why no Gil-Galad, High King of the Noldor? You could add a threat to take an event into hand, have Glorfindel win skirmishes to remove the threats. :)
