I would like to request help with this deck.
I love the idea of Arrows from the Trees but I have not been able to make it work effectively in true solo. So I decided to build a deck around using it to it's full effect including the boost.
The idea of this deck is:
- Keep threat below 20 (start at 18 threat thanks to Éowyn, then use Elrond's Counsel, The Galadhrim's Greeting and Needful to Know).
- Avoid enemy engagement (low threat, use Noiseless Movement every turn, Mablung).
- Damage enemies in the staging area (Arrows from the Trees, Ithilien Pit, Ride Them Down).
- Generate plenty of resources for the Allies and expensive events (Resourceful, Arwen Undómiel for cards).
- (MotK) Henamarth Riversong is a low-threat Hero to give access to and find the optimal time to play Ithilien Pit and Needful to Know.
- Éowyn keeps starting threat low, provides much-needed and hits hard using her once-per-game ability. If she is ready, she can attack two different enemies with her bonus, potentially more enemies if she has Unexpected Courage attached.
The problems I am seeing are:
- How does the deck win? I feel that the main focus needs to be high Allies in order to progress the quest, but I'm not sure if there are enough.
- (MotK) Henamarth Riversong is going to get killed quickly by any Treachery that damages exhausted characters because I will want to exhaust him before committing characters to the quest. I am wondering about having Henamarth Riversong as a pure Ally, and a different low-threat Hero (such as (MotK) Ioreth, as she can exhaust at the end of the round).
I have put some other cards I had in mind in the Sideboard.
Any help in making this deck viable would be much appreciated.

Dec 17, 2020You're both right, the fact that I am struggling to make Arrows from the Trees work is because I am trying to do it in true solo. If I went for a mono- multiplayer build, I could have Advance Warning and even The Great Hunt. That four-player fellowship looks like a lot of fun! Since my main method of playing is true solo, I'd like to see if I can make Arrows work in that environment. |
Dec 17, 2020If you really want to try to make it work solo, I suggest you go The Grey Wanderer route. For instance, a mono-Damrod deck like mine "Fair Ithilien" in which I am specifically discussing Arrows from the Trees. |

Does it have to be a solo deck? I find it much easier to make Arrows from the Trees work in a 2 players Fellowship with a mono-Lore deck on one side and mono-Tactics on the other side. Advance Warning help setting up Arrows from the Trees while other damage effects (Argalad, Thalin Bilbo Baggins, Descendant of Thorondor maybe brought in with Hirgon) soften up the enemies even more.
