Bid and go second. Walk the whole way as you want to be playing all of your plains sites. Mount Doom and Anduin Banks are the two optional sites. Always run maximum plains (seven). FBTHD and Mumak Rider are key.

MD:

Not that I am much help in Standard, but just for a gratification thing, would you mind posting the deck totals with your decks? Doesn't matter now that I have counted it all up...I was just trying to get an idea of the balance.

It looks like a pretty neat deck though. Why is maximum plains seven? Is that just based on the twilight cost of the sites so it works out that way?

[MuadDib85]

Yeah the twilight costs of the sites limits you to seven plains maximum.

[Witchkingx5]

Just to ask, do you own this Deck in real?

Anyway, I like it but I'd run The Mouth of Sauron, Messenger of Mordor for a setup for the conditions.

[legolas3333]

id take out ferny and grim and add a second mouth of sauron and saruman

[Gil-Estel]

Just to brag: I could make this deck.... Just to piss off Witchy.... I like the deck, but I would add Mouth of Sauron indeed. He is just too good to ignore.

I do have him. One copy is enough here, I want to keep it at 33 and can't really afford to remove anything.

[Witchkingx5]

But you could drop some copies of Pavise for The Mouth of Sauron, MoM cus' they get stacked on countless companies anyway, which you can grab with Messenger of Mordor.

[MuadDib85]

Changed the deck a little.

Out:
3x Theoden, King of The Eorlingas
1x Pavise

In:
3x Gamling, The Old
1x Fletcher of Harad

[Faelach]

That starter Gamling is insane.  Yet more proof that D went out of their mind with overpowered cards.  There's potential for a flippin' 11 strength Gamling for a twilight of 2!  That's without being decked out too.

WWDT?

[Mythdracon]

Out of curiosity, why do you like keeping the decks at 33, MD? :O

[legolas3333]

30-32 is usually what you want unless you have some crazy cycling, that way you are more likely to see every card in your deck

[MuadDib85]

Out of curiosity, why do you like keeping the decks at 33, MD? :O

Just coincidence that nearly all decks I have posted are 33/33, but I usually don't go bigger although sometimes (like my solo Smeagol deck) when I want something important early (Little Snuffler) I stay at 30/30.

Any more than 33 usually hurts more than helps.
