NERD 866

I absolutely LOVE the design of Lobelia Sackville-Baggins! By the way, does any one know if she can have more than one "Limit one per character" attachment?

She has so many unique possibilities from Saruman's Staff to Radagast's Staff. This deck tries to play a combination of secrecy and voltron, abusing cards like Gandalf's Staff, Black Arrow, and Andúril. There are also several combo packages. The low threat of this deck enables Palantir to work well, empowering the Celduin Traveler and Ithilien Lookout. In addition, Strider, Celebrían's Stone, and Silver Circlet give ridiculous boosts to Herugrim and Golden Shield.

While these synergistic plays are great, the real strength of this deck is its glue cards. In the combat phase, you can use the contract to ready Lobelia and give her two resources. Once she defends an attack, you can flash in Lembas, Hobbit Cloak, or Ent Draught to keep her alive. Alternatively, Fast Hitch or War Axe will help you kill the engaged enemy. Best of all, the instant-speed timing of her ability lets you use the The Grey Wanderer timing without wasting resources.

Once you get down a bunch of attachments and Golden Belt, Lobelia Sackville-Baggins can easily have 6-10 of every stat! Better yet, she can ready up to five times with Andúril, Fast Hitch, and the contract. Once you add in Halfling Determination and Hour of Wrath, nothing can stand before the might of Lobelia.

Have fun with the Sackville lifestyle,

If you find that this deck needs more card draw, add Rod of the Steward.

You can attach to her a second "limit 1 per character" attachment with her ability, but then one of the two copies will fall off.

Ok, that makes sense.

You should just bring this to a convention and never ask permission.

base-idea sounds good, but this deck seems to me it takes forever to reach that point. yes you can with her ability and contract play 2 cards without having the sphere, but that seems not enough for my taste and it lack carddeaw.

i have 2 ideas to improve:

carddraw: go few weapons more and foehammer overall: go for more songs+Fireside Song, it boost willpower and helps to play not-tacticevents

and we are thematicially as far away from tolkien as possible with an anduril-wielding hobbit, why not giving her The One Ring and e.g. Inner Strength then she can defend well from the start.

Sting is another option

@doomguard The One Ring takes up a valuable restricted slot, and defense is not a huge issue. With such a low threat, you don't even need to engage enemies turn 1 if you don't want to. The song package could work, but it doesn't really go with my current idea. Between Resourceful and Drinking Song, I think the deck is faster than you are giving it credit for. However, this is certainly not an overpowered or even strong deck. Finally, I considered Sting, but I am not sure if this deck can handle an extra enemy in the early game.
