The idea of Merry and Pippin with Ents is not a new theme, but if you add in Folco Boffin, suddenly you start with 16 threat and in Secrecy for a few turns. Mulligan for Resourceful and some Card Draw and you can quickly assemble an army of Ents. With Treebeard, you can be generating plenty of resources to pay for costly Ents. This deck benefits from The Dam Bursts as well which will allow you to get plenty of action advantage on damaged Ents or with Merry and Fast Hitch. Often the Ent Draught go to Merry and Pippin but others can go on Derndingle Warrior to keep them around to defend. They have sentinel and may be really useful in multiplayer decks provided no one else is playing any Ents.

The sideboard has some additional cards that will benefit you below 20 threat, although once the Ents are around being in Secrecy isn't all that important.

So far I have taken the first two quests of The Wilds of Rhovanion down with this deck solo. The main weakness is the many treacheries that penalize you for having lots of characters/allies.

Nice deck! I like the inclusion of In the Shadows. I forgot that card existed!

I had something very similar up the Anduin last night. Nice deck. :)

Nice deck! How are you dealing with first round attacks from low-threat enemies? Feint in hand?

@PeaceAndThoughtDefinitely a problem is early threat enemies that start in the staging area. I haven't run into that problem, yet, but Feint or Quickbeam would be the only options unless they have <2 attack. Subbing in Noiseless Movement or some non-ent allies could help avoid that.
