This is a pretty fun deck. The premise is to turn around and give the encounter deck the business. As whole, solo works well with Firyal as your quester and tossing the only card you might flip. She gives a lot of control. However, in multiplayer, you can keep adding set-aside encounter cards to add into the deck.

I brainstormed how I could possibly bring Tom Bombadil into the mix, but the synergy just wasn't there. Besides, you are limited to 3 total set aside cards per player. So if you have someone willing to run a hobbit hero, have them carry Tom Bombadillo! for more shenanigans. There hasn't been a clear ruling whether or not suicide decks allow for other players to grab their set aside cards or not, but it might be worth exploring that option too (maybe my Kamikaze Folco deck would do the trick)

I've only tested this against Into the Pit, and though it won fairly handily, it struggled with questing and attack power. Durin's Axe is good for a number of reasons, but a solid choice for Glorfindel once you clear out the enemy. Silver Lamp on Glorfindel was fun.

By the end of the game, you will feel like you have absolute mastery over what cards flip, and how to plan ahead.
