Implementing the forthcoming cards of the Flame of the West, I put Spirit Beregond together with Gandalf and Elrond. Of course, many can fit the role as Gandalf and Elrond are so strong, but I feel Spirit Beregond is the ideal fit, naturally mitigating the threat issue, even if starting at 37. In the few test plays, the threat was never an issue, actually finished always below 40 in solo, and always below 37 in coop, without any additional threat reduction in the deck itself. Originally, I had 1 copy of The Galadhrim's Greeting but I dropped it because it felt redundant. The card or two might still be needed against some super-heavy doomed quests, but in usual surrounding, Beregond really takes care of business. I will justify the cards if needed.
