I've been playing with a house rule I call "Favourite Things" where each hero can start with a preselected in-sphere attachment as part of the starting hand. The remaining 3 cards in the starting hand is random, and no mulligan is allowed. This reduces luck of the draw in setup and has flow-on effects for deckbuilding. If you wanted to try this deck I'd generally recommend adjusting the deck to be 3-of the Favourite Things cards and adjusting card counts around that. In this deck the Favourite Things are: Merry - Ring Mail (goes on Frodo) Pippin - Elf Stone Frodo - Resourceful (Yes I know it's not in sphere. I tried Hobbit Pipes but they suck) I wanted to build a three Hobbits deck that wasn't all about Sam. The idea is to use low-cost, high willpower Spirit Allies to hit the ground running and find Elf Stones. Then, plonk huge allies down into play for free. You need to be aware of First Player when playing multiplayer as the deck really needs Elf Stones and Ancient Mathoms to get rolling. Once you see an opportunity to play Peace and Thought you're off to the races. It's even worth copping an undefended attack on Frodo to do so IMO.
