A good ally in a general Rohan deck with Horn of the Mark, and a strong centerpiece in two cool combos :
-
With Lothíriel (and Eomer)
-
With Théoden + Gúthwinë + Théodred + Steward of Gondor, as he can technically come back and be played every turn to be the main chump-blocker then readying all the Rohirrim
Note that he is neither the best target for Gamling's response, since that last needs the Rohan ally to be discarded (not destroyed), nor the best one for Mustering the Rohirrim since we want him to leave play before the end of the turn for triggering its response.
I used to use Eomund with Lothiriel every turn at the Black Gate Opens, but then Lothiriel got eratta'd

Didn't she used to return the ally to your hand instead of shuffling the ally into your deck?

She never did so, she always shuffled it back in the deck

but it is nevertheless good. specially if you use https://ringsdb.com/card/02007 to search him out of the deck. this original content-2-deck-combo made fortress of nurn depending on her to use multiple eomund https://ringsdb.com/fellowship/view/8042

Yeah especially since the small size of your deck in Fortress of Nurn means that if you get the wheel going you can do it every round
