As the physical cards are getting harder to find these days, I gathered a large physical collection of common and nostalgic decks to play with family and friends as a pre-built game. I'm posting these decks as a reference and for feedback/discussion to improve on them. The decks are split into free peoples and shadow sides, all interchangeable at 35 cards each. There are some obvious drawbacks in doing it this way, but it is 100% worth it to allow mixing/matching and keeping each game unique and interesting. The idea is to make thematic and fun strategies while maintaining a balance. These are built with physical cards, so any in the $100+ range are not always going to make it in for their high costs and to maintain balance among the decks. I include cards from the Expanded format and rules, but some decks might also fit into other formats. This is one of those decks:
![Gondor [Gondor]](https://lotrtcgdb.com/forums/Smileys/classic/gondor.png)
Gondor Ranger Beatdown - Free Peoples (Expanded)
This is the weakest free people's deck I have. It was slapped together with old cards I had lying around.Starting:
The One Ring, The Ring of RingsBoromir, Bearer of CouncilFaramir, Captain of GondorRanger of IthilienCompanions:
Gondorian Ranger x4
Possessions:
Faramir's CloakBoromir, My BrotherShield of BoromirGondorian Blade x4
Events:
Swordsman of the Northern Kingdom x4
War and Valor x4
While We Yet Live x4
Concealment x4
Conditions:
Ancient Roads x4
Invigorated x2
One card that I have considered adding is
No Stranger to the Shadows.
I would love to hear any feedback/suggestions. Of all the decks I'm posting, this one needs the most help.
