This is the second half of a two deck Fellowship (see Denethor's Blood, Dúnhere's Fire for the first deck).
For this deck, it concentrates mainly on questing capabilities with some additional card draw and threat reduction thrown in. It's main job is to support the first deck's rampage upon the staging area.
The main reason for the hobbit lineup is for the seldom used, but not forgotten, Spirit Pippin. Why? Because he can provide the targets for Dúnhere to snipe away in the staging area. This deck can engage enemies, then kick them up to the staging area for the first deck to take out, without needing to worry about defense or shadow cards.
Use Fast Hitch for multiple uses of Merry's threat reduction. With Bilbo Baggins and Protector of Lórien, the deck can defend itself to some extent, but should rarely be forced to do so. The Unexpected Courage should generally be played on the first deck to provide more action advantage for the combat phases.
For those that are adverse to playing with Outlands, those allies can be easily replaced by others. Just add in some lower cost (Spirit preferably) allies instead.
