Dwarven / Moria Fellowship Block

[gigsto]

This is a deck very interesting deck i´ve been testing the performance and cards that you must us wisely to make sure you would survive a Nazgul a atack and have a chance to kill the fellowship with the moria swarm. Otherwise you will have a lot of fun with it beacuse of the dwarven/moria card draw and hand cycle cards. It´s not important to start so i recomend bet 2 and is gimli and gloin start.

On your Free People's side, it seems your Frodo is all alone. 1 Bounder, 1 Sting, 1 O Elbereth! Gilthoniel!, and no cancels mean that Frodo gets to a strength of 7 (has to be tripled) max, and even that is unlikely because you have to draw 3 cards out of 68. And, without a Hobbit Stealth, Frodo can't just knock out one of the Balrog fights.
But, on the other hand, it looks like your dwarves are holding up alright. You have a decent amount of good possessions, and nice conditions as well.

On the Shadows side, I think you should consider swapping an Goblin Wallcrawler for Durin's Bane. While FoU can be brutal, if you play against a choke (or just don't have the Goblin Runner you need), then you could be stuck with no Balrog whatsoever.
You have a big deck, but you probably need that for TAC, but you might consider trading out minions with less strength, and less useful game text (like Goblin Wallcrawler, Moria Scout, and Goblin Sneak) for Goblin Pursuer or Goblin Flankers.
Also, Host of Thousands. With only one (and 2 TAC), you might consider just taking it out. However, it does mean you have 5 Runners, or 5 Goblin Scavengers.

Thanks for your comments, There´s no problem against choke, just wait until the allies discard and go ahead with the swarms, i know 1 host of thousand seems few but you carrie into hand for any strategy play like playing the balrog at site 5 with runners or scout.

Saludos!

That's true. 1 Host of Thousands is better than none.
