= General Strategy =

The burden-removing pipe, Gandalf's Pipe can potentially remove up to six burdens per Pipeweed possession through Movie Block format. Commonly run with Frodo signets to take advantage of Frodo's Pipe, Pipeweed decks are potentially susceptible to multicultural hate, such as Mordor Pillager or Agents of Orthanc.

= Strengths and Weaknesses =
