Frodo, Adventurous Hobbit- Getting Frodo into play as soon as possible is crucial to our game plan, this is where our mana fixing is even more important and making sure we hit those required colors as early as possible. Frodos card draw ability will keep us fueled for the turns ahead.

Sam, Loyal Attendant- Just like in the movies Sams role is vital, protecting our life total with food tokens and keeping us alive as we navigate a way to close the game out or giving us the edge in games of attrition.

Since this deck is themed focused on only using Lord of the Rings cards, our winning conditions are limited. We'll mainly be using overrun effects like Pippin, Warden of Isengard, Motivated Pony, Gwaihir, Greatest of the Eagles and Galadriel's Dismissal to push through as much damage as possible.

Frodo, Sauron's Bane- Being able to remove a player from the game is kind of mean but satisfying.

Nazgul- I've included all nine Ring Wraiths for flavor purposes but also to help us hit the Ring-bearers abilities quicker. Each Nazgul buffs each one we control whenever the Ring tempts us, which pairs nicely with Frodo.

Orcish Bowmasters- Pinging both players or creatures for damage is a powerful ability. Removing would be blockers for our Ring-bearer is always welcome.

Elven Chorus- A fantastic card in it's own right and with Sam in play we are able to pay for our food costs with our creatures.

Kor Haven- Dying to commander or poison damage is a real threat for life gain decks.
