Hey all!

As soon as I saw the new three hunters contract, my first thought "what a perfect card for Na'asiyah!" I've been looking to try and implement her in a deck somewhere but couldn't seem to find one. This works well.

So my thought here is to build a fellowship that utilizes both contracts. I think I have a good set of decks, with the three hunters side getting a lot of support from the fellowship side.

Yes, arwen and teowyn seem like copouts, but more than anything I'm wanting to get the three hunters side rolling. I think, with the expensive spirit cards, the best way to do that is:

Put steward on frodo

Put ring on na'ayisah

Load up on mounts

Give aragorn all his toys

Anyway I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to optimize. As you can see, I basically just sprinkled the three hunters deck with one of each restricted attachment with no cohesive strategy as to what to be looking for.

Thanks and happy hunting!

I don't see any contract in the first deck.

Ringsdb doesnt have the new contract up yet since the pack has not been released.

Here is the link to the contract:

Why do you say that Naasiyah is a natural fit for the contract? The only "synergy" I can see is that she cannot pay for allies and your contract doesn't allow allies in your deck. Do I miss something?

Yes, Her ability is to spend resources to boost stats with the restriction of not being able to spend her money to play allies.

It match with the contract impediment to play allies anyway.

I assume the synergy is the this

I don't see more synergy too.

Right, and her tactics sphere opens up the majority of the restricted weapon and armor attachments (though if you do it right, you are hardly spending any of her money on anything but stat boosts), and she has a low starting threat. I would assume most individuals have a higher starting threat with beefier heroes to carry the load but with her stat line and negative ability essentially removed, she goes from niche to great.

My buddy and I have actually tested these two decks with a couple of slight adjustments. We have yet to flip the fellowship card but it doesn't matter because the three hunters contract is flipped turn 1, at worst turn 2. They gone 5-3 in the angmar awakened cycle so far and the three losses have come from ridiculously lucky flips from the encounter deck.
