Pirate Brahm 1038

This is a (MotK) Bilbo Baggins pipe and smoke deck with some focus on location control and plenty of resources to keep up your filthy hobbit habit.

Set up (MotK) Bilbo Baggins so you can put Wizard Pipe onto Gandalf on Round 1 for setting up those early Lore cards. Getting your card draw up and running quickly is key, so mulligan for a copy of Expert Treasure-hunter.

Tips

  • The real trick to getting the most of out of this deck is deciding when to recur spirit events with Dwarven Tomb and when to use a Will of the West to send those events back into your deck.

  • Thorongil has been added to convert Aragorn into his Lore version for threat control and resource smoothing. You can add Desperate Alliance from the sideboard if you'd like to reset another player's threat (puff, puff, pass).

  • Although Smoke Rings would be more thematic, I find myself using The Galadhrim's Greeting more efficiently after some playtesting. Sub and swap as you wish.

Remember, this is a cooperative game, so you are welcome to ignore Messenger of the King's text and just plop down (MotK) Bilbo Baggins into your hero lineup.

Great deck! really fun to play with, great at questing, can hold its own in combat-- overall very strong. Honestly, the location control is really where this deck shines. Aragorn and Rhovanion Outrider work especially well together in helping clear locations

i like smokedecks. interesting choice takeing Aragorn . more effective would be Glorfindel because of 3 reasons:

once fault, you cannot thorongil aragorn, but, you do not really need.

specially if you optimize furthermore. means, include few hobbitallies and max hobbitpipe to 3, and include Elevenses, cheap event to reduce thread and trigger hobbitpipes.

another optimisation, give gandalf the The One Ring + Inner Strength defense 4 + shadowcancelling rom the start, great.

for the hobbitpipes i would discard Blood of Númenor and 1 Dúnedain Pipe

for hobbitallies i would discard the Bree-land Protector and 1 Arwen Undómiel

for 3 Elrond's Counsel i would discard 2 Flame of Anor and 1 Dwarven Tomb
