Saviours of the Wilderland 1.0

This is the deck I came up with in order to beat the Fate of Wilderland scenario in a somewhat thematic way. I really wanted to use Gwaihir and Radagast since they make sense together, but I was wondering about the third hero. This particular scenario wants you to pump those allies out as soon as possible.

I didn't see a way of making this work with Grimbeorn the Old. I'd love seeing him (or hero Beorn) in this deck, but the threat is too high and Hirgon really combos well with Gwaihir. Adding an eagle after you quest with a discount will also ready Gwaihir. It just works well.

Radagast's Staff is essential and you need it in your starting hand. A Burning Brand and Self Preservation are there to help with defending - until you gear up, a lot of attacks will come through so at one point it would be useful to have these.

With Word of Command you can snipe 1x attachments so I decided to keep the overall number of attachments low.

Feint was very useful for Fate of Wilderland, but you might swap it for Daeron's Runes if you want more card draw.

Beorn is there just for fun. No other reason.

There is a nice combo where you can use Gwaihir's Debt or The Red Arrow to fetch Gandalf. Using Wizard Pipe can help with making sure that is successful. Since Gandalf is discarded at the end of the round, he will actually ready during the refresh phase. That means you can use him to fuel Word of Command without having to exhaust Radagast.
