Potential problems:
Crowd Control: Consider
Preparations and
Slaked Thirsts to combat
Shotgun Enquea, Grima, Chief Counsellor, and a bevy of other maneuver wounding shadow guys.
Terrible and Evil would be another good card for this purpose.
Cycling: Legolas, Fearless Marksman is a nice way to dump unused cards.
Slaked Thirsts will also help cycle.
Condition Discarding: Try
Brooding On Tomorrow. Combined with
Legolas, Fearless Marksman you can dump someone's key condition in the clutch.
Pallando is nice, but I don't like your
![[3]](https://lotrtcgdb.com/forums/Smileys/classic/3.png "3")
cost token card.
Possession Discarding: Can you afford to run
Blood Runs Chill? There have to be good possession/artifact discarding cards in Shadows or Hunters block. I'd hate to see you be too reliant on Gandalf with
Roll of Thunder.
Winning Skirmishes: Trust Me As You Once Did? Again, quite Gandalf-heavy. I'm just unconvinced that strength 5-10 companions can win a lot of skirmishes in the casual format.
Too many companions who are not fighters to deal with the twilight you will be pumping out: You are on your own on that one. I would've thought Gimli,
Bearer of Obligation would be helpful so you can
Healing: You run
Gandalf, Mithrandir. You will need a lot of healing.
Moment of Respite,
Hard Choice (which only would help Gandalf,
Aragorn, King in Exile, and potentially
Fearless Marksman), or
Have Patience come to mind.
Burden Removal: You have four Hobbits. You might as well throw in a copy of
A Light In His Mind, especially if you have forced discarding.
Useless Cards: Alatar, Final Envoy,
Radagast, Tender of Beasts, and as an extension,
Meneldor, Misty Mountain Eagle are useless twilight that could be better used as universal skirmish events like
Servant of the Secret Fire or something of the like. How often will you risk Legolas fighting? Drop the
Bow of the Galadhrim.
Gandalf: Your deck is Gandalf-heavy, and you picked a self-destructing character. As long as you are throwing out so much twilight, you might as well play
Gandalf, the White Wizard. What about the starter one from Shadows? Or
Gandalf, Powerful Guide to go with your Hobbits?
Suggestions would probably be more helpful
I would say that my best suggestion was my original post. It is probably a lot of fun to play against friends' weaker decks, but avoid playing against good decks because your companions will be lambs before the slaughter.
