Simple edit from my last version. Just put Elven Mail in my deck, and put The Day's Rising in my sideboard...
Contracts have definitely been one of my favorite types of cards from the recent expansions. I love the idea of using a contract and tuning a deck just right to be able to fit it. But today is a special day. Today, I can no longer only use one contract to make overly powerful decks......... I can now use 2!
Thanks to the new card: Beyond the Original Bargain, My decks can have 2 contracts at the penalty of +4 starting threat. So here is a rough draft of my second attempt of a deck with 2 contracts. The Idea is to combine my two all-time favorite contracts. At the End of All Things (which makes two starting heroes more powerful, lets you search your deck for two cards at round 4, and adds a total of 6 resources at round 4) with Forth, The Three Hunters! (which means I can't have allies, but my heroes get insanely powerful)
Starting threat: 20 (my heroes) + 8 (At the End of All Things) + 4 (Beyond the Original Bargain) = 32 starting threat.
Round 1:
-mulligan for at least 4 restricted attachments. This should not be hard, so get a Steed of the North if you can.
-if you do not get a Steed of the North, you can go ahead and quest with 1 of the rangers. You can use At the End of All Things to ready him later.
-flip Forth, The Three Hunters! as soon as possible.
Round 4:
-Flip over At the End of All Things to get additional resources. Also, get these cards:
-Steed of the North (enough so each hero has 1.)
- If playing multiplayer, get a DĂșnedain Cache for Elladan, and a Elven Mail for Elrohir. This will make them ranged and sentinel.
-If you can still get more cards, Golden Belts are always nice. The Day's Rising can let Elrohir Defend more.
It should be fair sailing from here on. please let me know if there are any good ideas or cards that I forgot. I hope you enjoy this deck, and look forward to what you other contract lovers come up with.
Note: when playing multiplayer, remember to add DĂșnedain Cache and The Day's Rising to your deck. You can swap them with Sterner than Steel, and Goblin-cleaver, or a combination of other cards that you don't like.

Nov 22, 2024I guess I could, but my starting threat is already 32, and I have no threat reduction cards. I don't want my starting threat reduced, and in order to use the ring I have to raise my threat. I do like the idea of cancelling encounter cards though. It would definitely be worth it for bad ones like weighed down. |
That's a nice combo of contracts! The One Ring might be worth considering, since it would get you to the B side of Three Hunters faster. Plus it would give you access to The Master Ring, which could be useful insurance against particularly nasty encounter cards.
