Arwen and Aragorn

[Mythdracon]

Aragorn, King in Exile x2 (starting)
Arwen, Daughter of Elrond x2
Ranger's Sword
Aragorn's Bow
Flaming Brand
Gift of the Evenstar
Asfaloth x2
The Last Alliance of Elves and Men x3
Elven Bow
The Choice of Luthien
Hard Choice x4
Arwen's Fate x4
No Mere Ranger x4
Valiant Man of the West x4
Strength of Kings x4
Banner of the White Tree x2
An Able Guide x3
No Stranger to the Shadows x2
Gondor Bowmen x4

Prancing Pony to snag Arwen. Heavy reliance on exertions, hence Hard Choice x4, I want to cut this down to 35 in the least, but I also think it might be wiser to add extra Elves in for Last Alliance. Or Athelas to remove Shadow conditions from the companions, though it's still vulnerable to conditions in the Shadow's support area.

Thoughts?

[Mythdracon]

Darn, how about a Fellowship/TTT block set then? For the ring, the regular ring would have to do vs Isildur's Bane in case corruption strikes.

Perhaps to counter Grima more events, less possessions (and removal of Last Alliance) would work.

Aragorn, King in Exile x2 (starting)
You don't need an extra copy if you have him in your starting fellowship.
Arwen, Daughter of Elrond x2
Add more copies of Arwen. 2 more if she is the only other companion you want to have.
Ranger's Sword
Add 1 more copy, it's a key card.
Aragorn's Bow
Flaming Brand
Banned in movie block.
Gift of the Evenstar
It's not a very good card.... but you can keep it if you want.
Asfaloth x2
The Last Alliance of Elves and Men x3
Two copies are enough.
Elven Bow
The Choice of Luthien
Hard Choice x4
That's too much healing.
Arwen's Fate x4
This pump is weak...
No Mere Ranger x4
This pump is weak as well...
Valiant Man of the West x4
Strength of Kings x4
This is one of the worst rare ever.
Banner of the White Tree x2
An Able Guide x3
No Stranger to the Shadows x2
Banned in movie block.
Gondor Bowmen x4

Sorry but I don't see this deck working at all because it uses too many weak cards. Who is your ring-bearer?

EDIT: Where is Gwemegil? You need at least 2 of it.

Seeing that you're considering other formats, in Expanded you could try an Arwen, She-Elf / Aragorn, DoFP token deck.

[Mythdracon]

Do you have a potential decklist for that?

I guess the above deck is a bit weak because it relies on exertions too much. No archery protection or corruption protection either. I suppose I would use Frodo, Reluctant Adventurer with Sting. Don't know how to fix the other problems though. :S

[Cw0rk]

Sting is banned in movie block.

EDIT: As everything else on this list http://lotrtcgwiki.com/forums/index.php/topic,1053.0.html

Honestly, decks with two strong companions seem more at home in Fellowship block, especially since every card that you've mentioned (except Hard Choice, which could be replaced by Might of Numenor) is already from sets 1-3. Then you could use the Prancing Pony, and you wouldn't have to worry about Wormtongue. Start Arwen and Sam, SoH, bid high, remove three burdens, then kill Sam off at site 2 (which would also buy you a little extra time to set up).

[Mythdracon]

What cards would you recommend for Fellowship block? The others said this card set was weak. Of course the weapons+strength boosts (Asfaloth, Gwemegil, etc) would be necessary....but what about condition removal and such? Would a splash Gandalf work, or would Elven allies be necessary? :S

If you want to stay in the theme of Arwen and Aragorn, you could add Elrond and Secret Sentinels.

It is meant to be used in FOTR but my friend revampted it for casual play.  It works really well and as he mentions, bidding 7-8 burdens scares your opponent

[Elessar's Socks]

Do you have a potential decklist for that?

I haven't built one myself. I think the general idea is to combine them with Elladan / Elrohir (well, still in the family ), and use skirmish events in conjunction with Galadriel's Silver Ewer for tokens.

[Sam, Great Elf Warrior]

I've also heard of an Aragorn/Arwen & Faramir/Eowyn wounding deck.

If you want to stay in the theme of Arwen and Aragorn, you could add Elrond and Secret Sentinels.

Galadriel is her aunt

I would also add another companion:
Sam (burdenremoval and connected with Frodo)
Legolas (relation is that he gives the necklace back to Ari) and otherwise I would suggest Glorfindel; as the #$&*@! stole his part and horse in the film... Shame on her!!!

[Mythdracon]

I think the banned Galadriel Lady Redeemed would be nice too, in Open....still not quite sure what I'd do with the decklist. Aside from Elven Supplies and Namarie, what Elven conditions add tokens? Would Elven tokens work better with Elven telepathy stuff?

[jdizzy001]

which block are we talking about?  I thought we were speaking of FOTR?
