This is a fun Forth, The Three Hunters! deck powered by the card draw of Erestor.
Questing
Questing can start off slowly (although you can go all-in for 7 on turn 1 if necessary), but with Erestor drawing through your deck, you should be able to flip the contract by turn 2 or 3, at which point it's off to the races. Light of Valinor goes on Glorfindel (of course). Battle quests are no problem (don't forget that Elven Spear can turn cards into extra attack during the quest phase), and Protector of Lórien allows Erestor to pull his weight in a siege quest. I experimented with a combination of Snowmane and Steed of the Mark to provide extra readying (using Nor am I a Stranger to facilitate this), but the combination proved too unwieldy to be relied upon. Hence, three copies of Miruvor, which can be recycled as many times as necessary for readying.
Attacking
Bard the Bowman serves as the main attacker, using Dagger of Westernesse, War Axe, and Great Yew Bow. Use Elrond's Counsel to keep your threat low and Rohan Warhorse to give him multiple attacks. Glorfindel can be loaded up with Rivendell Blade and Elven Spear to provide additional punch when needed.
Defense
Erestor serves as the defender, taking A Burning Brand, Elven Mail, and Round Shield. He's not the beefiest of defenders, but once Protector of Lórien is equipped, he can hold down the fort for a bit. A fun trick is to use a shadow card to trigger Round Shield for extra defense and then use A Burning Brand to cancel the shadow effect.
Miscellaneous
Silver Harp can allow you to save key pieces in the early game that are unaffordable otherwise (i.e. Asfaloth, Unexpected Courage), or that are situational (i.e. A Test of Will, Feint). Drinking Song is for those moments when you really need to get the contract flipped. Will of the West could be dropped, but I like having the insurance of knowing that I can retrieve important cards. The White Council is a solid toolbox card, capable of resource smoothing or readying (those are typically what I use it for).

This does look fun, I'll give it a try! A card you might consider is Elven-light. Once it's in the discard pile you can spend 1 resource to get two more cards to discard to Protector of Lórien or Elven Spear (or to help draw something you need).
