This is a typical Eagle deck with the usual shenanigans. A couple of play tips:

While this deck is well-rounded, I created it to go against Hunt for the Dreadnaught, which I hadn't played against before. The three copies of Revealed in Wrath were therefore auto-include: blanking the Boarding keyword is one of the strongest use of this card.

It also would have been very satisfying to have an Eagle of the North discard an entire ship full of corsairs, but alas it didn't happen in the games I played.

Might Galadriel be a better option here than Arwen? She can handle your card draw AND threat, plus Mirror of Galadriel could substitute for Word of Command, saving some needed resources on Radagast. Allowing Gandalf to quest without exhausting is also a big bonus, though it would be worth upping him to 3x in that case. If you really need the , there's always Nenya.

@kjeld It's definitely worth testing. Galadriel would certainly make the deck more consistent once it is up and running, no question about that. The only downside I can see is if Nenya doesn't show up quickly, questing could become an issue.
