What is the L.A.G. system ?
L.A.G is for Legolas Aragorn Glóin. It would have been nice with Gimli, but that's not the point ;-)
This is a deck that I've had never seen before on ringsdb.com, based on Legolas's ability to make progress in quest while clearing the staging area off of ennemies, and Glóin's ability to take undefended attacks while generating resources that will feed the Legolas + Steward of Gondor + Gondorian Fire system, or simply pay for cards or Gandalf. Aragorn's action and sphere support the Legolas + Glóin combo's efficiency and feasibility.
Drawing and threat reduction
Aragorn brings the sphere of the draw and its ability will help reduce the threat gain caused by Deep Knowledge, unsuccesful questing at early game or encounter cards effects, in addition to Secret Vigil.
An unique Silvan + an unique Dwarf allow another drawing event to be used : Unlikely Friendship.
Master of the Forge, Bofur and Open the Armory increase the odds to quickly draw 1 or 2 Blade of Gondolin and other attachments.
Heed the Dream is always nice in a deck with sphere + great resources. Gléowine is a classic option too.
Resources
The deck gets a very smooth curve cost, with a peak at 1-cost cards. Steward of Gondor is attached to Legolas and its resources will be mainly spend for Gondorian Fire machinery.
Errand-rider brings more flexibility in that tri-sphere deck.
Attack
Legolas + Blade of Gondolin + Arod + Gondorian Fire is the main attack engine (and of course a fun and good quest bonus). Secret Vigil and Foe-hammer add even more versatility to Legolas : its attacks destroy enemies, help to make progress in questing, draw and reduce threat. Other potential attackers here : Ents, Bofur, Envoy of Pelargir, Dori, Gandalf, Aragorn, Glóin.
Defense
Glóin + Boots from Erebor takes care of taking undefended attacks while generating resources that could be moved to Legolas via Errand-rider. Dori and Honor Guard help him survive, and The One Ring + Well Preserved are his healing solution.
Later on, Treebeard will defend, and Errand-rider, Master of the Forge or Envoy of Pelargir will chump-block.
Quest
Aragorn, Glóin, and allies quest. Faramir and Sword that was Broken free some allies up and/or accelerate the questing pace, beside the Legolas ability.
Other cards
The Long Defeat synergizes well with the Silvan and Gloin as well.
Trigger Gandalf + Sneak Attack for whatever you need.
Henamarth Riversong may protect your heroes from some bad treachery or shadow effects surprise.
Adjustments
If the scenario turtles, you can include some side-quests that Legolas may like: Gather Information, Keep Watch, Prepare for Battle.
When the scenario does not tax you too much on threat, it could sometimes be great to switch Legacy of Númenor for one card or another.
