This is a surprisingly strong deck considering it features the oft-maligned Dori hero.

Mulligan for a weapon to attach to Dunhere. Play the weapon and a 2 willpower spirit ally.

Your willpower starts off fairly low, but ramps up very quickly. You should be able to add 2 to your board every turn. Luckily, the threat gain from failing the quest early will be made up quickly by Fastred.

The point of Dori here is to beef up Fastred's defense, who is a little squishy on his own. Fastred can start defending on turn 1 for 5 thanks to Dori, which is plenty for the early game. He can get up even higher with Arwen Undómiel and Gondorian Shield. I prefer Captain of Gondor on Dúnhere in this build for more attack power, but if you are desperate for more defense it can go on Fastred.

If you haven't played with Dori yet in a deck where he felt really useful - give this a try!

Cool deck, I hated his card when I saw it, but playing with him made me feel better about him

@SamthemanGamgee Thanks! To clarify, are you talking about Dori or Fastred?

@Seastan I meant Dori, I love his ally. As for fastred, I just recently built a deck with him and bard I enjoy fastred he just is a little fragile
