I love dauntless hunter!  He's as bad as heir to the white city (who never should have been banned!)

It is a fair and good call to ban Aragorn, Heir to the White City outside of Fellowship Block. In most cases, can be the difference between playing a minion and not playing a minion. Choking was just too far stifling of an environment in Fellowship Block and once more competitive companions were introduced, it was too much to have Fellowships that could play multiple strength 10+ companions and not introduce any twilight beyond a move.

Think of the implications in Movie Block...Anduril, Flame of the West for a net ?

I understand the point you're making Ket, but honestly, what is the difference between choking and disabling your opponents ability to play minions, via lack of twilight, and discarding your opponents minions before they can play them?  In my opinion, choking and discarding go hand in hand and either ban them both or don't ban either of them (from decipher's POV since aside from gentelman's agreements I don't think TLHH has banned anything).  Honestly how many times have you played against a dwarf/sauron discard deck and couldn't play anything because you had no cards.  Choke is the same thing, you can't play anything because you have no twilight.  I've been on the wrong end of chokes and discards.  Trust me when I tell you the feeling of, "arg I can't play anything" is present in both a choke game and a discard game.

I understand the idea behind banning cards but I kind of feel cheated at times.  No BILL THE PONY, etc?  It takes chunks out of the "feel" of the game...maybe limiting them to 1 of each of those banned cards...or, only a total of 2 or 3 banned cards total per deck and only one copy of each of those three cards.
