Solo or Multiplayer deck.

Mulligan for Master of the Forge. Use him and Heed the Dream to grab Ambush, Wingfoot and Light of Valinor.

Play down an Ambush for 1 resource. Name Enemy with Wingfoot (on Aragorn) and quest with all your heroes. If it's an enemy it will get trapped and you will draw a card and ready Aragorn.

Engage the enemy and trigger Ambush. You'll always have at least 6 attack (Aragorn and Glorfindel) which kills a lot of things. For everything else, get your allies to help out (Henamarth should be warning you if there is a particularly big enemy coming up).

Pull back Ambush with Anborn, and repeat it all next turn.

A Good Harvest puts Steward on a lore hero to help pay for those big allies. If someone else needs it, you could try substituting in Elf-stone.

I wanted to try a trap deck for quite some time now, but never really liked one enough. Now this one looks great to me and I will give it a try as soon as possible!

After a couple of games I can report back, that it is working well. However i noticed a flaw when it comes to resources distribution. Glorfindel usually accumulates a lot of Spirit-Resources since there is actually not enough to spend them on. One LoV and a max of three Test of Will and Treebeard is not enough. What would be the best way to solve this issue and improve the deck?

@Legolas of Mirkwoodthanks for the feedback! For the resource distribution, what I like to do is play A Good Harvest once Glorfindel's pool gets big, then use his resources to play a bunch of lore cards.

I see. I guess i'll try making a little room for spirit staples, like 2x unexpected courage or 2x Arwen. Should make the deck even better.
