Deck for Sunday 1.0

Nice deck! Here are my suggestions:

1. With the strategy we're pursuing (keeping threat low and engaging stuff with Aragorn), there shouldn't be a need to defend more than 1 attack in most rounds. So Unexpected Courage might not be useful.

2. We are a little short on willpower. Any chance you can make room for the cheap spirit questers like Galadriel's Handmaiden and/or Ethir Swordsman?

3. How are you playing Elrond's Counsel?

4. I know you don't have lore access, but one way to help with all the damage being thrown around in this quest would be cancellation stuff like Raven-winged Helm, Honour Guard, and Gondorian Discipline. You could make space by dropping the archers, since I think we already have more combat than we need.

Hope I'm not sounding too critical. I really like the deck and I'm excited to see some of these cards hit the table!

What's funny us that those were some of the cards I cut. Any criticism is welcome because balancing four decks is well beyond my skill set. I'll make some changes.

A few thoughts:

1. I was looking through the encounter deck set and there are only 3 cards with surge in it. Lanwyn might still be of use, but keep in mind that her effect might not trigger that often.
2. I like Thrór's Key; that should be useful as there are some nasty locations with bad effects, and we won't be able to travel to all of them. Good thought there.
3. Given that threat is likely to be an issue, you could consider adding two more The Galadhrim's Greeting.
4. I second Chris's point about adding more willpower allies.

Hope these comments help as you revise.

Couldn't have done it without you guys.
