Seastan has a newer deck inspired by this one: Win Condition 7: Beat a Quest with this Deck

You're playing Journey Along the Anduin. Can you kill the Hill Troll on turn 1? Here are the rules:

  1. You will construct your own deck out of a single Core Set. The available cards in the correct quantities are given in the decklist, with the exception of the heroes, since ringsdb won't let me publish a deck with all 12 core set heroes. The list of core set heroes can be found here: http://hallofbeorn.com/LotR?CardType=Hero&CardSet=Core%20Set
  2. Unfortunately, you got your Core Set secondhand, and it's missing both copies of Sneak Attack! That's a shame.
  3. You can consider the rest of the encounter deck apart from the Hill Troll to be out of play.
  4. Since we are just playing with one Core Set, don't feel the need to construct a 50-card deck. In fact, make your deck as small as you want to make sure you draw all your necessary cards in your starting hand.
  5. It's standard difficulty, so you only have 1 resource on each hero at the start of the first planning phase.

Please use https://www.rot13.com/ to encrypt your answer before commenting.

Given that there is more than 1 correct answer, here are some additional things to think about once you've got an answer:

  1. How much damage does your solution deal to the Hill Troll? Is this the maximum possible?
  2. How many cards did your solution require? Is this the minimum possible?

I don't think we can improve in decreasing the number of cards used. But we can improve on the damage dealt to the troll! I can deal 15 damage to the troll. Can anyone top that?

CHALLENGE: Defeat 1 Hill Troll without Sneak Attack

Turn 1 - Quest Staging : Encounter deck reveals Wolf Rider, surging into the 2nd Hill Troll. Turn 1- Engagement: Wolf Rider engages. (Likely that at least 1 Hill Troll is optionally/forcibly engaged.) Turn 1 - Combat: Wolf Rider (2 attack) is dealt Dol Guldar Orcs as a shadow card (Shadow: attacking enemy gets 1 Attack. (3 Attack instead if this attack is undefended.) Hill Troll is dealt Despair (Shadow: Defending character does not count its Defense.)

Found this thanks to suipotryot. Big thanks to @Seastan for a very interesting challenge.

While trying to solve, and pussling over the various "but what if this happens as well..." (and a fair bit inspired by the modification suggested by @CDavis7M) I stumbled onto what I will concider the "ultimate-version" of challenge.

This time the encounter-deck is pulling out all the stops, getting as nasty as I found possible (more or less). You have to hit back imidieatly or loose in the long run (so the win-condition is still to kill at least 1 hill Troll). This time you're getting 2x Hill Troll (one in setup and one in quest-phase). You have to engage both, and they are both getting Despeair (ignores - ) for their shadow-card. The rest of the encounter deck is still out of play - you can't add anything from that.

Enjoy! ;-)
