Low-threat decks often struggle for attack power, especially in the early game. Tom Bombadil fixes that with his... checks notes... two direct damage PER PHASE? I have to keep reading his ability to make sure I have it right.
This means that if you have two song events in your hand, you can optionally engage and kill any enemy with 4 or fewer HP before it attacks you. Yeah, but that's two cards per enemy, so you'll quickly run out of cards in your hand... nope! Hey Dol! Merry Dol! can easily come back to hand once per round. Neither Goldberry nor Tom Bombadil have any built-in reason to quest without exhausting, so they'll be happy to exhaust so you can get that card back in your hand.
Since you're playing a threat-reducing event at least once every round, why not draw a ton of cards with Hobbit Pipe?
Let Us Sing Together is amazing on Rosie Cotton. It increases her willpower and lets her quest without exhausting.
There are several combat emergency buttons here too. Song of Slumber for when you get overrun, A Stout Heart for when you need to use Tom's sizable HP pool for an undefended attack (the Scheming Staddlers are happy to help with that too), and if Frodo Baggins is ready (he should be once you put Let Us Sing Together on him) he's a decent emergency defender with Rosie around.
In testing, I rarely used Frodo's ability. In this deck he's filling the role of leadership Hobbit hero whose name is Frodo Baggins.
