Testbed for twilight Nazgul corruption:

30 cards.

1 Gollum, Dark as Darkness
3 Morgul Skulker
4 The Witch-king, Lord of the Nazgul
4 Ulaire Enquea, Ringwraith in Twilight

4 Fell Beast

2 His Terrible Servants

4 Captured by the Ring
4 Resistance Becomes Unbearable
4 Wraith-world

Use Resistance Becomes Unbearable to make the Ring-bearer put on the Ring, and then bomb with Wraith-world. Morgul Skulker shuffles cards back as needed. I'm not expecting the Nazgul to survive dedicated beatdown or wounding decks, at least without more support, so I'd try to do damage to the Ring-bearer at sites 2 and 3, and lock in the wounds with Steward's Tomb at site 3.

In Expanded, I think it'd be tricky to counter both wounding and beatdown while also leaving room for the corruption package. Other card suggestions:

- Against beatdown: a version of The Pale Blade, Wormtongue (to strip down Durin III), Ferny, Dark Horseman (on the Ring-bearer or skirmishing alongside the Witch-king), skirmish events (All Veils Removed, Threshold of Shadow).

- Against wounding: Not Easily Destroyed, Wreathed in Shadow (if it survives Namarie), All Blades Perish.

- Ring of Rancor (extra vitality, return an exhausted Witch-king to hand), It Wants to be Found, The Twilight World.
