Petkov has a newer deck inspired by this one: Brotherhood of Steel

Intro: I've tried to find the best deck for Elladan and Elrohir. Considering that both heroes are good for combat, I've tried to get extra resources with Théodred and bring key allies to play like Erestor, Faramir, Longbeard Elder.Tested it on Khazad-Dum and Dwarrowdelf cycle. For most of the scenarios the deck worked fine.

Strength:

  • With a spare resource Elladan and Elrohir can deal with most of the enemies.
  • Once I got enough allies in play the deck became very balanced with double digit willpower and decent attack/defense

Weakness:

  • Low quest progress in early game stage
  • I found myself often with many resources but few cards, without getting Gandalf or Valiant Sacrifice I was stuck.

Best Combo/Cards:

Medium/Low Cards:

  • Théodred was fine in early stage to get more resources but afterwards didn't helped much. I've only picked him from because of low threat, considering that Elladan and Elrohir got to 20
  • For Gondor! - didn't used much

Final Thoughts: I've enjoyed the Elladan/Elrohir combo, but without enemies their potential is weak. Once I find a good replacement for Théodred I might get back to this deck. Not my best but still a decent deck.

Have you considered Heir of Mardil so that when Theodred gives a resource, the character readies? Looking at the cards you used, you may not have that pack yet, but that's a combo I've used with a similar deck.

Thanks @97jard for the tip. The card would be definitely useful, just I don't have it yet. Will add it in future.

Nice deck! Since card draw is one of the major weaknesses, I would strongly recommend swapping your three Born Alofts with three Foe-hammers - you have five weapons so it shouldn’t be too hard to pull off. I also find Dúnedain Warnings to be extremely useful on Elrohir, consider swapping out your Common Causes for two of those.

I like the ide with Foe-hammer, will definitely swap. Will also consider the Dúnedain Warning, you're right that Common Cause would be good to swap, I've used it maybe once. Thank you for the advice @Sclocker.
