This is a Vilya deck that uses (MotK) Gildor Inglorion to optimise Vilya and card draw.
Gildor Inglorion combines the advantages of Imladris Stargazer and Wizard Pipe into a single action, allowing you to time the deck. The main advantages of (MotK) Gildor Inglorion are that: he is available immediately and; he is eligible for Unexpected Courage.
How to play:
- Mulligan for Vilya, and prioritise getting it into play.
- After Vilya, prioritise Unexpected Courage and Light of Valinor.
- Try to use Vilya every turn by lining up a good card. If you have not lined one up, consider using Vilya blind if you do not need Elrond for something else.
Credit to Seastan for the Ally selection, which is almost directly copied from his One Deck.
I would welcome any thoughts, comments or suggestions.

Jan 02, 2021Thank you for taking a look at the deck. Unfortunately I do indeed need two copies of Gildor. There are two reasons for this:
|
Jan 03, 2021Cool twist on the Vilya deck. |
Jan 04, 20213 master of the forge? would replace at least 2 (gleowine, ioreth, quickbeam) with 3 runes and 3 head the dream and mulligan that should be enough to get vilya. |

Master of the Forge is also in the deck because the other attachments are important targets after Vilya is found. (MotK) Gildor Inglorion exhausts to use his ability, so Unexpected Courage is a priority to make use of his stats for questing, defending or attacking. Elrond exhausts to use Vilya, so Unexpected Courage is a priority to make use of his stats for questing, defending or attacking. Glorfindel raises threat when he exhausts to quest, so Light of Valinor is a priority. Additionally, there is only one copy of Asfaloth in the deck. I believe that these attachments increase the value of the Heroes beyond the value that more cheap Allies would add to the deck. |
Jan 04, 2021A further benefit of Master of the Forge is that he provides a deck shuffle if the cards at the top of the deck are not immediately useful. |
Jan 04, 2021if you want more actions, why not using lembas and/or miruvor? with master you need master, then perhaps find next round a courage. with lembas or miruvor you have sooner your actions and perhaps time to find without master. i think within the top 3 cards an your hand there is allways an card thats worth using vilya on. and you allready have some shuffeling with head the dream. |

Personally, I find Master of the Forge to be an Ally that keeps on giving throughout the game. He helps me set up Vilya reliably, helps me get my other key attachments, and then keeps finding me additional attachments to both thin the deck and give me backup copies. I can also use him to block a 1 enemy attack or chump block with him against something bigger. I appreciate what you are saying though and my preference may just result from my personal play style. |
+1 asfoloth -1 Gildor because you don't need more than one
