There's so many new deck types to test now! These new contracts are creating a massive amount of new decks to explore and enjoy. I've been so busy creating and playing decks that I've again neglected this blog. But today I get to look at a Grey Wanderer contract deck and this is a contract … Continue reading Fair Ithilien by banania

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. The … Continue reading Deck #68 – Gandalf Stormcrow
Deck #54 Sneaky Folco
This Secrecy deck was created and submitted to this blog for testing by RingsDB user Marcelf. The deck starts at a low threat level and aims to get the Spirit Imrahil ally into play by a variety of methods, then drop its threat level by sending Folco to the discard pile while turning Imrahil into … Continue reading Deck #54 Sneaky Folco
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 #32 The North United
Here we have a thematic deck focusing on the people of the North, the Hobbits and Dunedain. The North United was created and posted to RingsDB by user Fantasty. Sam and Folco go hunting with a Dunedain troop but Boffin is bound to head home come lunch time and keep the hunting party in Secrecy … Continue reading Deck #32 The North United
Deck #19 Free Peoples in Secret
The Free Peoples is a fairly recent event card that has huge potential, but I haven't used as much as I hoped I would. Its a wonderfully thematic card, emphasizing the coming together of different people and races to fight against the shadow in Tolkien's world. I tend to play "tribal" decks more often than … Continue reading Deck #19 Free Peoples in Secret
Deck #17 Secret Paths Through the Drúadan Forest
"Road is forgotten, but not by Wild Men. Over hill and behind hill it lies still under grass and tree, there behind Rimmon and down to Don, and back at the end to Horse-men's road. Wild Men will show you that road. Then you will kill gorgyn and drive away bad dark with bright iron, … Continue reading Deck #17 Secret Paths Through the Drúadan Forest
Deck #14 Beregond Keeps a Low Profile
This deck caught my eye today because the Beregond/Eowyn/Glorfindel combo was one of my standby decks for years, but using Tactics Beregond and Spirit Eowyn. This deck is a new take on one of my favorite combos! Created and uploaded to Ringsdb by user Thejuggler2000, Beregond Keeps a Low Profile starts at a fantastic 21 … Continue reading Deck #14 Beregond Keeps a Low Profile
Deck #10 – Secret Leadership
Another quick Folco deck test. This is a mono-leadership secrecy Folco deck! Not something I would have thought of but Sam and Denethor are certainly good candidates for starting heroes. Secret Leadership was created and uploaded to Ringsdb by user Denison. The deck includes a couple cards I've never played at all so I thought … Continue reading Deck #10 – Secret Leadership
Decks #8 and 9 – Boffin Fever!
The community has a fever and the only cure is more Boffin! For a while today there was a new Folco Boffin list popping up on Ringsdb every hour! At least 3 videos of Folco decks have hit in the last two days as well! He has certainly breathed new life into the secrecy/two hero … Continue reading Decks #8 and 9 – Boffin Fever!
