So he's useful against Gondorian Merchant?

MD isn't adding threats anyways and Tower Assassin is better ally hate. I'd pick him over The Easterling 10 out of 10 times.

They are far better at ally disposal, but unless they get themselves some powerful rings and carry them for a hundred years, then turn into twilight dunlending warrior nazgul or twilight tower assassin, they are of no use to MD. Wink

The Easterling text is not as good as it should be (wound 2 allies or discard an ally would be nice), but he is a strong twilight nazgul and crippling Bounder or killing off Barliman Butterbur can help a long way.

Morgul Brute x4
Morgul Whelp x4
Morgul Skulker x3

L3333 That looks good but I don't want any morcs either.


Ulaire Lemenya, Lieutenant of Morgul...

No one else likes him? I think he would be neat in this deck.


I have taken everyone's suggestions on board and am going to change the deck a little soon.. Thanks alot!

Ulaire Lemenya, Lieutenant of Morgul is a great card for this type of deck. I have a deck revolving around it and Wraith conditions, though it has some enduring nazzies and Black Dart which are from sets 8 and 10. I even added 2 copies of Grima, Son of Galmod to spice things up a bit and used him just because no one else uses him, but soon switched him for Wormtongue for obvious reasons.

Anyway, how about Gollum, DaD? He's universal, pretty much the most versatile card there is and he can help a lot if you go the RB wound way, not to mention add some twilight from burdens that are most likely to be there once Lord of the Nazgul on Fell Beast appears.

I like Ulaire Lemenya, Lieutenant of Morgul cus' he's a Nazgul, but still, if you want to build a Deck around him, don't use Twilight Nazzies. He's great, Twilight Nazzies are great, but I don't think making a hybrid Deck with those two strategies is very efficient.

Twilight Nazgul: Corruption, RB wounding
Ulaire Lemenya, Lieutenant of Morgul: beatdown

you could actually add one or two Lemenyas to this Deck, but the more Splash cards you add, the more insecure will the chance be to draw the right cards at the right time, and as you already split the Shadow side's strategy up in your original post, I'd concentrate the effort more on either theme of the Deck.

EDIT: Congrats to your 2000th post Lego!

forgive me for being an idiot, but I don't think Lego's deck actually has the conditions to make Mind and Body work.  :-)  Oops.

I playtested a similar deck today (Mind and Body with first-set powerguls), and got destroyed by the seventh set Smeagol and Don't Look at Them.  I believe I will now try the deck as it's made here and see if it does better.

Yeah, I noticed that. Not sure if L3333 meant his deck list plus Blade Tip and Black Breath, I assume so, if not Mind and Body is not needed at all in that deck..

Updated decklist in the original post. Thanks for all the suggestions.

I'll try and test it soon.

It is more focused on twilight nazgul now. Thoughts?


Edit: Added a fellowship to go with the shadow.

Edit2: Just played this and was chewed to bits by beseigers. Bad matchup for a pipeweed fellowship. Maybe Roll of Thunder and Sleep Caradhras would help, although with one more twilight (to play Mind and Body) I would have won the game before dying...

Considering starting Merry and Faramir instead and adding 4x Gandalf. That would free up two spots for the events mentioned above..

I kind of think 38/38 is too big. What about dropping Escape and Fireworks on the Freeps side and then making your suggested changes (Roll of Thunder and Deep in Thought)? You could cut the Easterling and one of the other Nazgul support cards to get it to 36/36.

Also, just a thought, why not Faramir, Wizard's Pupil?
