This deck featuring Beorn, Arwen and Galadriel was submitted for testing by Rimogard. This appears to be a refined version of a deck idea that he has been playing for a while. In his submission he said this was tweaked to specifically beat the Morgul Vale so I'll have to make sure to test it … Continue reading Deck #47 B is for Beorn

Deck #46 Requiem of a Green Dragon
Today we'll look at a recently posted Hobbit deck featuring Sam, T Merry and Folco Boffin. This deck was created and posted to RingsDB by user Devaresh. First Impressions This deck is similar to the classic Black Riders Hobbit deck that has been around for a while, but it features several of the new … Continue reading Deck #46 Requiem of a Green Dragon
Deck #45 Gimli/Legolas/Loragorn
Gimli/LEgolas/Loragorn was created and posted to RingsDB by jamjams32. This Three Hunters deck explores combining the new Sands of Harad version of Gimli and Legolas with Lore Aragorn and the set of powerful Doomed cards that should help get the deck set up quickly. First Impressions I like the basic idea of this deck. … Continue reading Deck #45 Gimli/Legolas/Loragorn
Deck #44 Marty Vultron
This mono-leadership deck featuring Amarthiul was created and posted on RingsDB by user The Mormegil. It focuses on the combo between Elfhelm's boosting characters with mounts and Amarthiul's two spheres (when engaged with an enemy). First Impressions My first thought was "Why haven't I thought of this already?!" Amarthiul can make great use of the … Continue reading Deck #44 Marty Vultron
Deck #43 Uppity
This Spirit/Leadership super-readying deck was created and posted to RingsDB by user sappidus. It features Cirdan, one of my all-time favorite heroes, Spirit Legolas who I've been using a lot of lately, and Theodred, an old core set hero that I never use for some reason (I know he's good but I never grab him). … Continue reading Deck #43 Uppity
Deck #42 Mustering Gondor’s Might
Gondor decks have been slowly evolving for several years now, but they still don't come up often on RingsDB. While Hirgon feels like a Rohan hero since he fits so well with Theoden and Eowyn, he can actually be used effectively in a Gondor deck like this! This Gondor deck was created and uploaded to … Continue reading Deck #42 Mustering Gondor’s Might
Deck #41 Gandalf Kicks ASSumptions
Many of us have played several variations on the Black Riders Hobbit deck with Sam, Pippin and Monster Killer Tactics Merry. That only problem with that classic hero lineup is that it lacks the threat control and support of the Spirit sphere. This deck featuring Spirit Merry and the more permanent version of ally Gandalf … Continue reading Deck #41 Gandalf Kicks ASSumptions
Deck #40 Noldor Fighting Like Dunedain
The Noldor deck type has been my favorite style for a few months now so my interest was piqued when I saw this variation on the Noldor deck get published on RingsDB. Noldor Fighting Like Dunedain was created and uploaded by user Ryson. First Impressions I've played a good bit of Noldor and I've wished … Continue reading Deck #40 Noldor Fighting Like Dunedain
Deck #39 Even Quicker Ents
Quickbeam has arrived but the biggest splash he's made seems be people joking about running three copies of him in a deck. I haven't seen too many decks featuring him go up on to RingsDB yet. I've made a couple decks with him, but I'm looking forward to exploring his possibilities further. This Ent deck … Continue reading Deck #39 Even Quicker Ents
Deck #38 The Fellowship of the King
I must confess I've never played a one hero deck before. The closest I've come is starting with Fatty Bolger in Escape from Mount Gram. This one-hero deck was submitted for testing by RingsDB user RedSpider. This deck explores the thematic possibility of Frodo not continuing the journey after Rivendell and the Fellowship proceeding without … Continue reading Deck #38 The Fellowship of the King
