The Fords of Isen with No Men Self-Starters – December 31, 2019

I changed up the Necromancer deck a little bit to fix some issues from the my first attempt. I thought having Erestor discarding my hand would help the Necromancers have targets to bring back with Stand and Fight. It really hindered things instead since I usually didn’t the resources for much beyond playing Stand and Fight once. Plus discarding A Test of Will without using it was never good. Dain too his place for more defense and possible resource acceleration with Hidden Cache. Plus his ability could help get allies into the discard pile. … Continue reading The Fords of Isen with No Men Self-Starters – December 31, 2019

The Fords of Isen with Hobbit Decks – November 10, 2019

Deadmen’s Dike with Lore Tactics Angmar Awakened Minimum Purchase Deck – August 18, 2022

I know the last time I attempted Deadman’s Dike with my last minimum purchase deck that I said I would try it again. I had this idea about making dual sphere deck to help speed up my early game. Also I wanted to improve the combat ability which to including Tactics. Particularly for Derndingle Warrior which I know from my old Mono Tactics deck is a great defender. Something that my previous decks had been missing. … Continue reading Deadmen’s Dike with Lore Tactics Angmar Awakened Minimum Purchase Deck – August 18, 2022
