Total 35
I really like the Gandalf splash and
Gandalf, Returned beacause if you draw
Glamdring, Foe-hammer you don't have to keep it in your hand until you draw Gandalf
(and it reinforce tokens
) so you have just played
Gandalf, Returned and you have a 9 strength companion who remove burdens and reinforce tokens
and you can play the
Watch and Wait on Elendil for easy burdens removal. (but
Gandalf, Returned is very expensive sob
)
I put on also some
Defenses Long Held just to have some event in the deck, because is not funny a deck without events
Boromir is really useful to discard high vitality minions (with lowe strength obviously
) choosing to wound him 2 times and you take 1 wound and 1 burden.
In case someone suggest to change
Footman's armor with
Armor... no
Footman's is really good to be used to discard Shadow cards, because this deck will win with the freeps and you have to draw a lot to build up a really strong company
The tactics is obviously to run 3-6-9-win
Well here i'm... i don't know which Shadow use to pair with
(ps. i'm playing Lotr only with my friends and we don't play any cards with Hunter ability and the old 1..9 sites)
