This deck is not creative at all, it is a crowdsourced Rohan deck.

My procedure was as follows -- I analyzed Rohan (Spirit Theoden) decks to see what the most likely SpTheoden-using hero lineup would be. After settling on TaEomer/SpEowyn/SpTheoden, I then looked at 21 decks using that lineup from different creators to see which cards were used the most, and what the median ally/attchment/event count was. You can see the raw information here:

To turn that information into a deck, I then used the median count to apportion card slots to the most popular choices in each category, trying to use the most popular count for each until I ran out of space (I did lower the count at the end of the list so I could fit all the cards with >50% eligible decks choosing). I also limited the cards to a single core set.

The end result should be a stereotypical Rohan Deck -- one that only includes cards that others have used the most (by percentage, not raw count) in their own Rohan decks. If you want the typical Rohan experience, this may be a good fit -- and if it's not, don't blame me, blame the committee!

Gameplay should be straightforward -- give Eomer Firefoot and a Rohan Warhorse, give Theoden Herugrim, Golden Shield, Snowmane, and Unexpected Courage. Give Eowyn Windfola. Play lots of Rohan allies, discard them, and bring them back with Gamling.

Nice, I love this idea! The sphere balance even looks about right, which is interesting.

I just took it for a spin and beat Into Fanghorn with it!
