Turbo Corrupt
« on: February 04, 2009, 02:46:58 PM »
Shadow Draw Deck

3x   2R84   • Úlaire Nelya, Ringwraith in Twilight
3x   3U86   • Úlaire Otsea, Ringwraith in Twilight
4x   2U78   It Wants to be Found
4x   10R68   • Úlaire Enquea, Thrall of The One
3x   8R67   Between Nazgul and Prey
2x   9R+47   • Ithil Stone
1x   1R279   • Thin and Stretched
1x   2R90     • Tower Assassin
4x   1U258   Morgul Skulker
4x   10U97   The Ring Is Mine!
2x   6C108   Wisp of Pale Sheen

Shadow Total   31


There are 3 parts in this deck :

- Twilight Nazguls using It Wants to be Found,

- Enquea TOTO with BNAP

- and a Sauron part to bring the Nazgul cards back in the draw deck and add some additional burdens with The Ring Is Mine!,
we can also use • Thin and Stretched with Enquea


That's all ;),

My thought is that it'll be hard to play Thin and Stretched because you only have 4 morgul skulkers, but it is a lean deck and you can draw cards with Ithil Stone.  I'd also be afraid of The Ring is mine getting caught in your hand.

Definitely test it a few times, and shuffle it up a lot to see if you can get a bad minion draw, then evaluate how good it is at its worst.

Lol this is probably one of the most powerful corrupt deck in Movie Block.....


This Shadow must be played with a good cycling Freeps, and 4 Skulkers are sufficients in 31 cards, it has been testing many times,

don't forget you easily add burdens in Manoeuver ;).

I still say math dictates 4 The Ring is Mine! PLUS Thin and Stretched with only 4 Morgul Skulkers will eventually screw you. I'd consider a Tower Assassin, nice "splash" minion, good enough effect depending on what you're up against and reasonable body that allows for playing those with more ease. Probably over a sincle The Ring is Mine!. I think it'd give you more reliable odds of getting to play the cards in the right order to corrupt. But that's about it (MAYBE cut a BNaP, but I don't think it's necessary, it's still useful with the other Nazgul, unless you want a singleton Blade Tip for Otsea's text).

I'd replace ostea with equina, more useful 2U83

Yeah, but you cant get rid of 4x   10R68   • Úlaire Enquea, Thrall of The One.  That's the key to the deck.  I think he uses Nelya, and Otsea because they are cheaper.  Thus he can play It wants to be found

It feels like it needs 2 more wisps of pale sheen or 2 more [Sauron] Orcs if it could spare the room.

You could add a couple Spied From Above to play Wisps in regroup and discard for more burdens

you will get a real problem when you draw bad, most decks have alternatives against these cases.....you should pack the witch-king, lord of the nazgul and throw out the useless otsea, i know many versions from twilight guls, and play them by myself...without the witchi, they are always half power

The twilight Nazguls I use are cheaper, so you can play a Sauron minion to add burdens.

This deck has to be in 30-31 cards to draw the good card at the good moment ;).

Uhm actually it can be faster: Put in a Sauron's throne, a Undead of Angmar and a Mount doom....
It will give resistance -4. I even wouldn't use the Wisp of Pale Sheen but 4x Morgul brute...  and 4x  Covetous Wisp. If they don't assign you'll have a pomp of 4!

3x   2R84   • Úlaire Nelya, Ringwraith in Twilight
3x   3U86   • Úlaire Otsea, Ringwraith in Twilight
4x   2U78   It Wants to be Found
4x   10R68   • Úlaire Enquea, Thrall of The One
3x   8R67   Between Nazgul and Prey
2x   9R+47   • Ithil Stone
1x Sauron's throne
4x Covetous Wisp
4x Morgul brute
4x Undead of Angmar
and either 4 x Candle Corpses or Dead Faces

And why the Thin and stretched, Morgul skulkers and a Tower assasin??? Only because The Ring Is Mine!? In that case I would even use a totally different deck:

4x Desperate Defense of the Ring
Thin and stretched
4x Orc Inquisitor
The Irresistible Shadow
4x The Ring Is Mine!
4x Gorgoroth Stormer
4x Mordor Fighter
Gollum, Stinker
3x Captured by the Ring
Fat One Wants It
So Polite
2x Dead Marshes   
3x Grishnakh, Orc Captain

Smeagollum, first this is movieblock. So Throne of the Dark Lord and such can't be added to the deck.
Second, well, ok....

Why not replace the two Ithil Stones with Bent on Discovery? It gives you the same card-drawing ability and also the ability to exert your Enquea, ToTO without the four BNaP. The only benefit Ithil Stone has over BoD, then, is its ability to bring out one of your Sauron minions in a tight spot.

Now, I threw the Thin and Streched away and replaced it with 1 or 2 Bent on Discovery,
I play only 3 BNaP, otherwise it's clocking your hand.... and you need them to avoid characters like Faramir sod, Eowyn LOI, Gandalf+Staff ....
Moreover, Ithil Stone is an artifact and yeap you could play the minion you need in a tight spot ;).

Why throw out the Thin and Stretched? It's a nasty little card that adds burdens quite well when you can get it out (and at least makes your opponent use Athelas or another condition remover..which prohibits him from using it elsewhere -- like if you wanted to throw in a Blade Tip). My idea was to throw out an Ithil Stone and put in three Bent on Discovery. To balance that out you can remove two BNaP because with BoD you already have that exertion power.

By the way, BNaP requires some major twilight, it's probably better to just bring out another minion instead of wasting that 4 twilight. For example, with two (or even one) Bent on Discovery on the table you get that exertion power you need for 10R68, and because you aren't paying 4 twilight for BNaP you can instead bring out a, say, WoPS to add ANOTHER burden.

Just my two cents.

Mmh Enquea+BNAP were only there to complete the deck, the strategy of the deck is not based on him.
And you really need BNaP, for the reasons I just said up there.
