Three Hunters, One Ring 1.0

My first deck worth publishing. Based on "The Slightly Modified Deck You Want Your Friend To Play" by Authraw, which was based on a Seastan deck.

Authraw's version was part of a Fellowship he built for Siege of Annuminas. It was full of attachments meant to be played on the other players. I started using the deck with my regular group. Because we don't coordinate decks & attachments ahead of time, I seldom played attachments on others. More likely was one of my teammates playing Unexpected Courage on my Beregond. The deck improved when I ran 2x Unexpected Courage myself.

I modified the deck further to focus on Beregond. At this point the deck was called "Beregond Defends for Days". But the other two heroes weren't pulling their weight. I modified the deck further to get more utility out of my other two heroes.

Before Forth, The Three Hunters! was spoiled, the deck was down to only two allies (2x Master of the Forge). I modified the deck further, replacing Master of the Forge with Open the Armory and increasing the number of Restricted attachments.

HOW TO USE THIS DECK

The One Ring goes on Éowyn, as do Inner Strength and Strider.

Mulligan for a hand full of attachments, or possibly card draw events. In some cases, it is possible to fulfill the contract on Round 1. In a worst case scenario, hold onto Lórien's Wealth, don't spend Lore resources, and draw the cards you need by Round 3.

The cost curve of this deck is very low. When possible, spend Tactics resources on the neutral cards because they are most abundant.

All Restricted attachments are 3x, in order to fulfill the contract as quickly as possible. Use extra copies to feed Elven Spear.

You have one copy each of Oath of Eorl and Hour of Wrath for the late game.

Sideboard contains 2x each of Hasty Stroke and Power of Orthanc. Swap these in for scenarios with nasty shadow effects or condition attachments, as needed.
