"But wait, you can't play allies with Na'asiyah ..."

Correct, but not quite correct. You can't pay for allies with Na'asiyah's resources. But nothing stops her from cheating in allies via other means.

Use Song of Kings as her starting attachment. With Timely Aid, Send for Aid and the usual Sneak Attack, you can get the biggest and best allies into play without caring about their cost. If you don't have those cards, use the off-sphere option of the contract to dig for them with all those -events. Will of the West is for rinse-and-repeat.

Note that Na'asiyah always turns into a combat-monster even without any fancy equipment, just by collecting resources. So Steward and Resourceful are the main priority. The contract helps, too, obviously.

This deck WILL struggle with questing. So it is advisable to play two-handed with a partner-deck focussed on willpower, location-control and possibly some extra-healing. If that deck is too weak in combat, help out with Tireless Thoroughbred from the sideboard.

a song is sometimes better than Strider ;)

i would buff it with A Very Good Tale and a better ratio off allies

Mar 08, 2023 Taurelin 517

A Very Good Tale would be "win-more" in this case. To play it, you need to already have 2 allies. If you get 2 allies into play here, the deck has already done its job fairly well.

Of course, with a total rebuild you can mend that. But then you might also play a good hero from the start. :D

Nice deck! I would try to find room for Beorn. I would cut Quick Strike.

Mar 08, 2023 Taurelin 517

Thanks. I guess I simply forgot Beorn.

Mar 08, 2023 doomguard 2121

you think she is not "good" ? ;) i totally disagree..... :D (i think its potential or more than 2 allies even with her)

Note that Na'asiyah can still play 0-cost allies, non-uniques of which include Dúnedain Hunter and Dunedain Pathfinder. You could also use Stand and Fight, and possibly some Beorning tricks with Beorning Skin-changer and Birna.

perhaps more constructive: would add a War Axe specially if the Golden Belt comes into play. and if including Beorn he can wield the axe too.

Yeah, I know the 0-cost allies, but I never liked them, as the drawback they bring is simply not worth it.

War Axe was included in earlier versions of the deck. With some more Tactics-allies (not the bears though), they'd by viable again, I agree.
