Synopsis:

This Gandalf deck is built around Zigil Miner. The basic idea is to play Zigil Miner as soon as possible and allow it to generate the necessary resources for you. Gandalf gives you insight into the top card of your deck, to help you with that. Sam Gamgee and Merry are chosen because they are generally strong heroes for a low cost. The remaining ally pool is assembled around the Hobbit trait and other generic good 2 costs.

How it's played:

Usually one mulligans for Gandalf's Staff or Zigil Miner. Try to play them as soon as possible and start to generate a lot of resources. The deck is very biased towards 2 cost cards, which should help you with the miners. Try to use Gandalf's play from top ability as often as possible, especially on events outside of the planning phase. In case your deck is emptied, reshuffle it using Will of the West.

Strengths: Willpower, Versatility

Weaknesses: Early Attack

Changes: Not much has changed here. Some extra hobbit allies have been included over the readying attachments for Gandalf. Gaffer Gamgee has been included to assist in the defenses and can be reliably repeated through Wizard Pipe or The Storm Comes.
