Pigeon 1

Pigeon has a newer deck inspired by this one: Young Master Gandalf and the little Orcs - Ents

This deck is not optimized, and would/will have Gandalf the White whenever he's released. But in the meantime, a vaguely thematic deck that does all right with a partner that can hold their own for the first few turns while the march is assembled.

Never had the pleasure to play an ent deck, so I can't say anything on the march itself but your deck looks like it packs quite a punch when running. Consider Narya for those ents.

One thing worth mentioning - Gandalf does not belong to any sphere of influence so unless I missed a ruling somewhere you won't be able to use his resources with A Good Harvest to play a card out of your hand (you can still use his resources to play any card from the top of the deck, with or without the Harvest).

@Valdemart yeah, Narya is in it, thanks for that catch. And yes, Gandalf doesn't benefit from A Good Harvest, but he facilitates a larger hand, paying for treebeard, paying for A good harvest to more cohesively utilise merry and pippin, and just being a boss all round early on with his stats. Also, theme, he's the only other hero that actively interacts with the Ents!

except, with Narya equipped, would he not benefit from A Good Harvest?

@Pigeon Yes, if you really have Narya in this or another deck, once on Gandalf you can 'spend resource of [Leadership] sphere when paying for cards that belong to the named sphere'. Now you will be spending a 'purple' resource and not a colorless one.
