An attempt at a thematic Scouring deck, inspired by the call for ideas for the YT series.

Thematically, no Horn of the Mark is a bit disappointing, but having MotK Pippin might make up for it.

Strategically, there’s not much to it. Get Thorongil on Pippin for card draw and engagement cost shenanigans, stay engaged with a high-cost enemy with Gaffer cycling or a becloaked Tom Cotton, and swarm those hobbits. Despite the usefulness of the various “enters play” effects and Tom’s boost, Lily isn’t critical to the deck’s success.

Forgot to note: in solo, ditch Hobbit Archer for extra copies of Bywater Shirriff and Cautious Halfling. Outside of saga play, this deck would work OK with Valiant Sacrifice subbed for Frodo's Intuition, though that's obviously a much lower-value card; the lack of extra resources from Frodo would also justify an extra copy of Resourceful.

Bill the Pony is missing

This is somewhat similar to a deck I made a while back! I second adding Bill.

Unforgivable! I’d actually omitted him purposefully, because I’d forgotten they reunite with him in Bree in RotK. Yeah, Bill should definitely be in here.
