This deck is one of my favorites. It's just a lot of fun to play with its ever shifting board-state and myriad number of possible affects. It's pretty powerful too; it was a slightly different version of this deck that I finally beat Battle of Carn Dum and it's the deck I chose for Gen Con this year. Just remember you want to avoid engaging enemies whenever possible, so Haldir can snipe them.
Basic deck need break-down:
Questing- The questing is really "swingy" it can usually do an okay amount, but then you also get those turns where you bring out a bunch of allies and with Celeborn's boost you can muster a pretty solid questing push.
Combat- This deck is pretty weak on defense. First strategy is to avoid engagement and snipe with Haldir, second is to use Feigned Voices, with chump blocking likely to be your final option against strong enemies. There's a good bit of ranged in there, so you can usually help kill things around the table.
Resources- Most of the cards are cheap, that helps, and the ones that aren't hopefully you can cheat into play via Tree People. O Lorien is pretty clutch, though and worth mulliganing for.
Card Draw- Galadriel and Galadhrim Minstrel.
Threat Control- Galadriel and her Handmaidens.
My Standard Disclaimer: I don't play on Octgn or at a game store. I play solo or with my friends, who all use the decks that I have built. This means that I try to keep lots of pre-made decks lying around (I have over 10 at the moment). This further means that those popular standards (A Test of Will, Unexpected Courage, Steward of Gondor, Feint, etc) tend to get spread around and mostly my decks aren't perfectly optimized. Rather than post the perfected versions, I've opted to post what actually ends up getting played at my house.
I have made a very similar deck, I like to play with it a lot. As you have said, it is a lot fun and it has so many possible plays every round... Referring to your last paragraph, I have the same problem, which I solve by printing the cards on cardboard myself.
