Decks #30 and #31 – Deep Knowledge
While I usually test decks alone in a "true solo" context, today I have the chance to test a 2-handed fellowship consisting of The Hunters of the North and Eyes of the White Tower decks. This fellowship was created and sent to me by RingsDB user Onidsen. First Impressions The entire fellowship is primarily made … Continue reading Decks #30 and #31 – Deep Knowledge
Deck #27 Teach a Tree to Talk: Teach a Tree to Smash
Another Ent-themed deck! This deck was submitted to the blog by The Purple Wizard. While this deck shares two heroes with the last deck I tested this week, it should feel a good bit different with Treebeard as a starting hero!

Second, it contains literally zero allies. Three heroes are all you get. The deck is focused around the theme of Frodo … Continue reading Deck #18 Hall of Fire
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
