====== Sam, Faithful Companion (1R310) Wiki ======

===== General Strategy =====

Hearkening a card that would not be released until the Mines of Moria expansion (although a promotional copy was also available), Sam, Faithful Companion can tutor the !site !twilight number reducing Bill the Pony from the draw deck. With two copies of Bill the Pony in the draw deck, the Free Peoples player could usually ensure having one available for sites 2-4 and sites 7-9 (As long as they are not both drawn very early). With Bill the Pony X-listed in Movie Block, Sam, Faithful Companion only offers a boon in Fellowship Block, Towers Standard and Expanded formats.

The Frodo signet allows access to Frodo's Pipe, Dear Friends recycling, and !skirmish wounding of Mind Your Own Affairs and No Use That Way, though in later blocks Sam, Frodo's Gardener and Sam, Resolute Halfling offer significantly more while also possessing the Frodo signet. Like all Pre-shadows versions of Sam, this character is Ring-Bound and can take the Ring from Frodo upon the latter's death.

===== Strengths and Weaknesses =====

=== Strong Versus... ===

* Expensive minions
* Seen primarily in Choke Decks
* Frodo signet allows access to Frodo's Pipe, Dear Friends recycling, and !skirmish wounding of Mind Your Own Affairs and No Use That Way

=== Weak Versus... ===

* Useless in formats where Bill the Pony is X-listed
* Helpless
* Underground sites
* Does not offer as much utility as Sam, Son of Hamfast or Sam, Proper Poet
