DECK NAME - Road Warriors

OVERVIEW - Arwen's brothers make a great team for escorting her through this quest. A slew of killer treacheries (including Sleeping Sentry) calls for Eleanor. The most important card in this deck is most certainly Gandalf. Our hope is to put him into play as much as possible and use him to accelerate card draw. Wins usually come in 15 rounds as this deck is slow to build up but when you get the ball rolling, you're golden.

HEROES

  • Eleanor - hold her back and use her to cancel treacheries; when ready, she makes for a nice defender against the many 2 enemies as well as an extra point to help Elladan out
  • Elladan - attach 2X Rivendell Blade and 3X Dúnedain Mark, and Dúnedain Cache (for killing Goblin Archer); don't quest with him or else he'll lose his attachments to Black Uruks;
  • Elrohir - attach Steward of Gondor and 3X Dúnedain Warning; like Elladan, don't send him on quests

STRATEGY

  • SETUP - perhaps mulligan for Gandalf so that you can get him up and running; also it's great to have Hasty Stroke to cancel shadow effects
  • ARWEN - usually best to give her resource to Eleanor
  • THREAT REDUCTION - should be fine to just use 2X The Galadhrim's Greeting; Gandalf is used more for card draw or damage
  • CARD DRAW - 3X Ancient Mathom, Gandalf (with his complementary cards), and 3X Valiant Sacrifice
  • SHADOW CARDS - selectively use 3X Hasty Stroke and 3X Dúnedain Watcher; be very careful with effects that damage allies as Arwen will die if she receives 2 damage; 2X Dwarven Tomb is probably best used to fetch Hasty Stroke from your discard pile
  • ATTACK/DEFENSE - pretty much exclusively use the twins; watch out for effects that discard resources from all your heroes early on; eventually it's not a big deal

ENCOUNTER CARDS

  • Orc Raiders - I hate this card; it sucks to discard 2 attachments when it engages you, but that's why there are duplicates; don't put out attachments too soon only to lose them; keep Born Aloft in mind
  • Goblin Taskmaster - Gandalf is a great target for his forced effect
  • Goblin Archer - included 1X Dúnedain Cache so Elladan can hopefully kill; Gandalf can destroy him if it's becoming an issue
  • Chieftain of the Pit - Vassal of the Windlord makes for a great chump when Chieftain's is boosted; basically try and keep an ally ready for chumping in case he shows up
