Deck #68 – Gandalf Stormcrow
This deck caught my eye when it was first published on RingsDB but I didn't have a chance to play it right away. A couple days later a friend of mine recommended it to me so I'm going to take it for a spin! Gandalf Stormcrow was created and published on RingsDB by pconners.

Deck #55 Gandalf the White
The central idea in this deck is letting Hero Gandalf die halfway through a game and replacing him his more powerful ally version. When Fall of Gil-Galad on Gandalf, he should reduce your threat by 14 when leaves which gives you plenty of space to keep "Gandalf the White" around for the rest of the … Continue reading Deck #55 Gandalf the White

This deck featuring Spirit Merry and the more permanent version of ally Gandalf … Continue reading Deck #41 Gandalf Kicks ASSumptions
Deck #29 Bastards of Thorondor
This deck posted by RingsDB user curiousboss combos a huge amount of card draw and cost reduction to make the eagles set up super fast.

Here we have a look at a Gandalf/Thurindir/Folco deck! This sidequest deck was created and sent to me by Rings user OKTarg.
