The original variation of this deck was just Gimli, Legolas, and Eowyn. It worked remarkably well against certain things, but imploded horribly when faced with an
Easterling Polearm or a
Shelob, Her Ladyship. I added
Eowyn's Shield and a Citadel to help deal with the Polearm, but the deck is still too focussed on wounding. I actually think that a Gimly, Eowyn, Legolas variant is still the better way to go, but I'm still unsure how to deal with Shelob.
The shadow side is the reason this deck still has a positive winning percentage. I don't know why everyone expects
Return to Its Master instead of
Wraith-world, but I feel like the latter often surprises people. As the game progresses, I can use Skulkers to cycle
Resistance Becomes Unbearable, which often leads to an 8 or 9 burden turn late-game.
However, because
Wraith-World is a skirmish card, I've lost several games where the skirmish gets cancelled before I can play it, which is really irritating.
I've considered options like
Gollum, DaD, or
Morgul Brute, but they can also increase the potential for terrible draws. Any advice is appreciated.
