You've got a lot of expensive allies in this. How about Vilya and Imladris Stargazer?

Jun 05, 2017 LordStark 32

Sure ! Instead of ?

Jun 06, 2017 The White Wizard 541

I would probably get rid of The Favor of the Lady, Valiant Sacrifice, Guard of the Citadel, Snowbourn Scout, and Ever Vigilant. This way you could add three Copies of Vilya and Stargazer, three copies of Sword that was Broken, an additional copy of Celebrian's Stone, and three copies of Daeron's Runes. I know that's more than I originally suggested, but I thought about it more last night and came to that conclusion. Hope it helps. Welcome to the RingsDB community!

Thanks for your help ! What about a Burning Brand ? Would be great on Elrond ?

Jun 06, 2017 LordStark 32

Are the Wandering Took useful ?

Jun 06, 2017 The White Wizard 541

A Burning Brand would be awesome! I totally forgot about that. Wandering Took used to be good because he was part of a broken combo involving Song of Earendil. However, he is not good outside of that because his stats aren't that good. In this deck though I could see leaving him in because it looks like you need the willpower. :) Have you played this deck against anything yet?

Jun 06, 2017 LordStark 32

Burning Brand instead of ? Idk I did'nt played it. I'm very new and i played only the core set Quest. Do you suggest me something ? Idk what to do... I got from the core set to Shadow and Flame

Jun 06, 2017 The White Wizard 541

I'm not sure what would be good to take out to make room for A Burning Brand. I would evaluate all the cards in your deck after playing it a few times and decide what the weakest card is. I would recommend playing Into the Pit. It's a nice well rounded quest that has you questing hard at the beginning then shifts into more of a combat focus and ends with a straight up quest rush where you don't gain any resources at the beginning of the resource phase. Journey Down the Anduin is of course a classic.

Jun 06, 2017 The White Wizard 541

It's impressive that you are attempting a three sphere deck. Not many new players do that. I prefer them myself.

Jun 06, 2017 LordStark 32

I felt in love with Glorfindel and I really wanted to play him. Do you have any idea of a Main Glorfindel Deck. Building is very hard. I play on OCTGN coz i don't want to buy many CoreSet. It's quite difficult to make a good deck in early game...

Jun 06, 2017 The White Wizard 541

Try Glorfindel with Lore Aragorn and Prince Imrahil. Add in all the cheap power cards you can get and you are all set. Gandalf is a good choice in this deck.

Jun 06, 2017 The White Wizard 541

Or try Lore Aragorn with Glorfindel and Frodo. That one is really powerful as well.

Jun 06, 2017 LordStark 32

Frodo ? Why is he powerful i don't get it... Sorry i'm just a beginner..

Jun 06, 2017 LordStark 32

Cheap power cards like ?

Jun 07, 2017 The White Wizard 541

Frodo is good because he allows you to quest hard out of the gate knowing that you can just take any enemies' attacks as threat. Add in Aragorn, who resets your threat, and you can take any attacks you weren't expecting in stride. Cheap power cards like Daeron's Runes, Asfaloth, Unexpected Courage, A Test of Will, Elrond's Counsel, etc. Anything that gets you value at a low cost. Think Arc Lightning in MtG.

Jun 07, 2017 LordStark 32

3 copies for each cards ?

Jun 07, 2017 LordStark 32

MtG ?

Jun 07, 2017 LordStark 32

And an other question : How do you choose to put 1, 2 or 3 cards in a deck ? How do you count Unique Character in the total count ?

Here is my 1st try : ringsdb.com

Jun 07, 2017 The White Wizard 541

Three copies is pretty standard if you want the deck to be consistent. MtG=Magic the Gathering, the first CCG. I usually judge how many copies of a particular card I want using these questions: 1. Is the card essential for my deck to function? Does it enable a combo? 2. If it is not essential, how quickly do I need it? 3. How much does it cost? Is it unique? What do you mean by counting unique characters?

Jun 07, 2017 LordStark 32

Do you think like you just explain with unique cards ?

Jun 07, 2017 The White Wizard 541

I try to not use too many unique cards unless I really need them. Unique cards tend to be very powerful though so you usually want a few. The problem though is that if you stick three copies of every unique in your deck, playing one copy means the other copies are just clogging your hand and deck. The trick is to find a balance. I usually go for three copies of about 3 unique cards. The right balance can really only be found through playing though. Every deck is different. I tend to play very fast and aggressive decks that are as efficient as possible so I don't like my hand and deck to be clogged.

Jun 07, 2017 LordStark 32

It's really interesting to learn with someone like you ! Really ! Do you play on OCTGN ? :)

Jun 07, 2017 The White Wizard 541

Unfortunately I do not. Thanks for the compliment! It's always fun to help a beginner because I remember when I was. I'm still learning things myself though. :)

Jun 07, 2017 LordStark 32

You're not interested of it ? Coz playing with you would help me to understand things i can't learn myself

Jun 07, 2017 The White Wizard 541

I would love to but unfortunately I do not have the money. Is there a free, no subscription version?

Jun 07, 2017 The White Wizard 541

If you're interested, I could help you build decks on here. I could try to build you one if you want.

Jun 07, 2017 LordStark 32

Some things request you to be Premium but it's free to play of course !
