I always find my self in a tough spot when building decks. I want my shadow to work and my fellowship to work. To work as in being able to bring the game home. The result? Loss of focus, because I want to do both. So my shadow is often almost there, as is my fellowship.
As I ran by the options for Undomiel I noticed Elrond, KoV. In an all deck he is great. The point is though, you might be ending up discarding your shadow. Normally I would be bothered, now I do not -really- care. As long I can get my hand on at least 1 ships of great draught, I am fine. Ditch all yellow cards in your shadow turn -or you must have such a great hand and an insane amount of pool that you can release the angry flood- to add tokens on ships of great draught. This will help to set up your fellowship. Once set up, it must be able to endure a lot. At least it can win skirmishes.

Obviously there are weak spots. Think of Easterlings, or perhaps ninja gollum, but I think it is quite a solid deck.

Comments most welcome as always....

I love this Arwen and I''m glad somebody else is trying to make her work too.  The only couple things I can see to do is maybe take out Curse Their Foul Feet for a Naith Longbow.  On the Naith Warband that would be pretty useful.  The other being if burdens are a problem, maybe take out one Stand Against the Darkness for Sam, SoH.  Otherwise I like it.

those allies are pretty expensive for their game texts....

But...they are complementary to Arwen. An enduring Servant of the Secret Fire if you will.
