Solo League 25 -- GH/Dreamchaser with VoI/Ringmaker player cards

By dalestephenson, in The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game

Posted at

Welcome to the LOTR Solo League. This month we'll be playing three quests from Grey Havens and Dreamchaser. The quests are:

1) Raid on the Grey Havens
2) The Drowned Ruins
3) A Storm On Cobas Haven

Here are the rules:

1) Each player will construct a 50+ card deck, then use that exact deck against all three quests. You may use that deck freely against any quests (include the three quests in the league) prior to the run for testing purposes, but you may not use any trial runs for your official results.

2) At least one of the heroes must be from a box with those quests. This means that you must have at least one of Cirdan, Galdor, Argalad, and Na'asiyah.

3) Your score against each quest will be how much help you need to defeat it, based on the Grace of the Valar variant invented by Seastan. It works like this:

For each token you have, you can choose to draw a card or give a hero a resource. This happens one at a time, so if I use my first token to draw a card, I see the card before I decide whether to use my second token for a card or a resource. This can be done *anytime* during setup.

The original variant starts at zero tokens and gains two tokens if you lose quickly (first five turns) and one if you do not -- however, for the purposes of this league I will allow you to start a quest at any number of tokens, and adjust by as many as you want. The only rules for adding/reducing tokens are these:

Rule 1) If you lose a quest with X tokens, you cannot play that quest again with X or less tokens.
Rule 2) If you defeat a quest with Y tokens, you cannot play that quest again with Y or more tokens.

So for example, if I start with six tokens against Raid on the Grey Havens and defeat it, I can play it again with 0-5 tokens. If I then try with three tokens and lose, I can play it again with 4 or 5 tokens. If I try with four and lose, I can play it again with 5 tokens. If I win, my final score for that quest is 5, and if I lose my final score for the quest is 6. (Alternatively, I could've decided that 6 was a good enough score the first time I played it, and just have my final score be 6 without playing again.)

Remember that tokens do not carry over between quests. When playing A Storm on Cobas Haven it does not matter how many tokens I needed to defeat The Drowned Ruins.

4) You are not required to publish your deck, but providing a ringsdb link is encouraged (otherwise I may need to ask you for your decklist at the end of the month if required for a tiebreaker). You are required to reveal which Heroes you used, and how many cards in your deck came from outside GH/Dreamchaser, VoI/Ringmaker and a single core. Do not include outside heroes in this count, only cards in the deck itself.

Note: Contracts (from the most recent cycle) are not part of the deck and should not be counted. A Loot Deck (from the Burglar's turn contract) is also not part of the deck and should not be counted. The One Ring or the Messenger of the King ally/hero should also not be counted *unless* your deck uses those cards to reach 50 -- the Master card fetched by the One Ring should be counted. You may follow contract/One Ring setup instructions at the same as hero setup, ignoring Caleb's ruling.

Note: Na'asiyah conflicts with her enemy/ally versions in two of the quests -- for the purposes of this league, if you use the Na'asiyah hero this should be considered her identical twin sister, coincidentally also named Na'asiyah.

5) Tiebreakers have frequently mattered in this league. Here are the tiebreakers, in order:
---
1st) The number of outside cards (i.e. not from GH/Dreamchaser, VoI/Ringmaker or a single core) used in the deck. Do not count outside heroes in this count, only cards in the deck. Less cards is better.

2nd) The number of heroes specifically from GH/Dreamchaser and VoI/Ringmaker. More is better.

3rd) The number of heroes used from this list: Cirdan, Galdor, Argalad, Na'asiyah. More is better.

4th) The number of cards in the deck outside GH/Dreamchaser and VoI/Ringmaker. Less is better, and core cards are considered "outside" for this tiebreaker.

5th) The number of cards outside Grey Havens, The Drowned Ruins, and Storm Over Cobas Haven. Less is better, and core cards are considered "outside" for this tiebreaker.

6th) Performance in August's Solo League (if you didn't play or finish August's League, a median performance will be assumed). Whoever did worst wins this tiebreaker.
---

6) 1st place gets to choose the cycle for November's league, 2nd place gets to choose a quest from that cycle, and 3rd place gets to choose a quest *not* to be used from that cycle. In an effort to expand the diversity of decks used, the last place player will choose an additional cycle that may be used for deckbuilding in November's league. October's cycle will be Angmar, chosen by the winner of August's league.

7) Weekly deadlines will at 11:59pm Eastern on the 14th, 21st, and 28th. Only the final deadline really matters for scoring and cannot be extended -- the first two deadlines are only to be included in intermediate standings.

Raid on the Grey Havens: September 14th
Drowned Ruins: September 21st
Storm on Cobas Haven: September 28th

8 ) I've created a google spreadsheet for results here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mnQGj54v_xjelFnc0TOl6YQBzvSiWr1YZpWxWKI60G4/edit?usp=sharing

To join the league, merely add your name and information about your deck to the spreadsheet, then enter your results as you have them. Please give a link to your deck if you built or published it on ringsdb, but it is not required.

If you wish you may run additional decks against the quests and record your results, but only the first entry will be considered for the competition itself.

This month (after much agonizing over whether I wanted to set up a Na'asiyah vs Na'asiyah fight) I went with a deck not much competitive from a tiebreaker point of view (31 cards outside the basic card pool) but I wanted to double down on the ally boost theme and try something I had in mind for a long a time: a (mainly) Noldor fellowship which made use of Narya, the contract and Lords of the Eldar for big swings. I have to say Ally Glorfindel really is amazing for this kind of deck, being able to alway come back in play if you have resources.

Anyway my biggest fear, Raid on the Grey Havens, actually went surprisingly well, with a 0 tokens win. It was still a brutal game and I flipped the contract so many times it seemed more of a revolving door, but I was able to scare away (for now) Sahir and Na'asiyah.

Once again, I will only be using the required cards, which will definitely put me out of the running for victory. This will be made all the harder since I do not own the Rngmaker cycle.

Raid on the Grey Haven is definitely the hardest of the three, at least solo. I took ten tokens, after agonizingly close 4, 7, and 8 token runs. (the 0,1,2,3,5,6, and 9 runs were quick defeats.)

Drowned Ruins was a turtling breeze, with zero tokens. On to Dol Amroth!

I started out with a deck using Círdan, Erestor and Na'asiyah, but it simply did not work well enough with the three spheres and my resources, so I had to switch out Na'asiyah for the more traditional choice and included Arwen instead.

So far, I only played Raid on the Grey Havens, which went pretty smooth, once I got past the first couple turns, where I didn't get anywhere progress-wise at first. But once the big allies started to show up, the deck started to pick up speed. Entered the second stage with 8 damage on the Dreamchaser, and was exactly one damage short to kill Sahír right away, as I sent everyone to douse the flames. So one more turn after that, where I had enough damage to defeat Na'asiyah and Sahír both.

The Drowned Ruins was no problem at all. A bit annoying that I had all my Will of the West and all my Silver Harps in my opening hand (and thus in my discard pile, since I couldn't play them, or rather had better things to play; like Inner Strength, To the Sea, and Glorfindel), so I had to very carefully watch for those Dwarven Tombs. But it all worked out. I built up a few rounds and then started to go through the Underwater locations, with enough Willpower to explore one per round.

One curious situation happened with the third Underwater location, which was the one that blanks all attachments.

I had Glorfindel with Sword-thain, and Asfaloth in play. He also had one resource.

With the attachments blank, he is no longer considered a hero, but the attachments themselves stay on him (if anything, they do not have any text, so they are just blank attachments). Does he lose the resource, though? I did so, since I wasn't sure (and it didn't matter, anyways).

Since there's no direction to discard resources anywhere, I would not discard them -- though they wouldn't be useful for anything until Sword-Thain was unblanked. It's equivalent to Treebeard or Radagast allies having their text blanked by a treachery -- their resources would be unusable, but there's no reason for them to go away.

Drowned Ruins was a breeze, having all the time to turtle (and 2 unique allies from the get go to jumpstart the contract) really makes this deck shine. I took a bit of sweet time but when I got to Sahir's betrayal I was able to flip back the contract next turn and make a huge quest push with Lords of the Eldar to clear the Shine immediately

With the attachments blank, he is no longer considered a hero, but the attachments themselves stay on him (if anything, they do not have any text, so they are just blank attachments). Does he lose the resource, though? I did so, since I wasn't sure (and it didn't matter, anyways).

Dale already replied so I will simply voice my support for that position: there is nothing indicating that you should discard those resources, ally Treebeard and Radagast show us that allies can have resources too. You simply won't be able to use them until you get Sword-Thain back online.

Cobas Haven finally ended in an amazingly epic, 33 victory point win at 6 tokens. This was such a fun solo league, with my favorite cycle AND quest! Thanks @dalestephenson !

Good point about Treebeard and Radagast allies also being able to have resources, didn't think of that. But as I said, it really didn't matter, as there was no need for the resources anymore at that point and it was close to the end, anyways. 🙂

Cobas Haven was once again a victory at 0 tokens but the deck was really tested to its limit in combat. I ended up with huge amounts of damage everywhere (next time I really should include Ioreth and some Song of Healing in a deck like this one. I was still able to destroy the Corsair Flagship in a single all out attack the turn I engaged it thanks to a combat turn with 3 of 5 enemies without shadow cards, which let me take some extra undefended attacks to have the maximum firepower needed. Nifty bonus that the Corsair Skirmishers are boosted by the contract too.

@Alonewolf87 You do know Raider Flagship says, " Only Ship objectives can be declared as attackers against Raider Flagship." Correct?

Dang totally missed that, thanks for pointing that out. I guess then I would have taken less undefended attacks that turn, uber quested the next turn and still won with the other winning condition (the staging area was empty and there was only 1 Ship in play, worst case 2 if I revelead another, so I would have needed only 10-15 progress tokens). I would totally need to recalculate the final score though.

If @dalestephenson thinks I should play the quest again no problem for me.

Score doesn't matter at all, only tokens. If you had reached the point where winning was guaranteed if you had played the rules correctly, there's no need to replay; but if there's any doubt you would've won you should replay from the beginning with the same number of tokens.

There's too many things to think in this game, I often miss something at some point, and when I see it, I just say "well, let's say I did that" just because I don't want to restart from the beginning

I tried to look at all the possible cards in the encounter deck and not even one would have resulted in me being unable to quest more than enough to win the following turn.

So knowing that there are nasty ship enemies I figured I could try to avoid them using Firyal’s MOTK trickiness. And it sure worked, unfortunately Raid on the Grey Havens was a really rough go for me so I ended up with 3 tokens for that quest and overall. Great fun to revisit my favorite cycle though!

Raid on the Grey Havens

First try I got quite a ways in before too many ships were set aflame. My second attempt with one token I drew two raid leaders in the first and second rounds and was subsequently annihilated shortly after. My third attempt with three tokens was a much more even game where I was able to fully utilize my doomed card strategy and managed to use a Word of Command to summon Helm of Secrecy and swap Saruman for Aragorn to drop my threat from 49 to 31 last round and win the game using my horde of Ents.

The Drowned Ruins

The second quest went substantially better being able to fully utilize my deck’s strategy, finding and playing all of the doomed cards with Saruman’s staff reducing the threat raise. I alternated playing allies every other round to work around the underwater locations and then right before the final round I used a Word of Command to summon Helm of Secrecy and drop my threat from 48 back to 31 which helped with the massive threat increases in the final phase of the quest. But by that point I had a horde of Ents ripping the grotto open and I was able to escape easily. 0 tokens used.

Storm on Cobas Haven

Here my Firyal strategy really paid off, I managed to avoid a total of 3 Warships by discarding them and taking my chances with the next card which ended up always being friendly locations or treacheries I could deal with. Smooth sailing and an easy final win. 0 tokens

Total tokens 3

First attempt against Cobas Haven didn't go so well. Lots and lots of big ship enemies and only very few allies early on. The second one worked well, though. The first stage took a while, but I had a Cobas Haven as the active location for two or three rounds, which allowed me to engage some of the ships without crew. Glorfindel was discarded twice and brought back from the discard to take over the two Corsair Skirmishers. At that point, there wasn't much in the way and the heroes sailed on towards victory.

I guess Dale is still wrapped up in the whole moving business, since we have no news about this League roundup or the next one setup.

Posted at

Sounds like it, I suppose we could post up the next one if Dale is busy. I just have no idea how to set up a google excel spreadsheet like that if any of you guys do?

Looks like you managed to rock last month A Lone Wolf, so you get to pick next cycle. Thanee coming in second gets to choose a quest to play, and I get to exclude one. Bobby gets to pick the accompanying cycle for player cards.

I plan to be playing in the league for the first time this month (October). I did some digging to see what the restrictions would be and would like to confirm I am correct:

October League:

Mandatory heroes (pick at least one): Erestor, Amarthiul, Arwen

Quest gauntlet: Carn Dum, Treachury of Rhudar, Dread Realm

Deluxe/Cycle for cards (for tiebreaker purposes): The Lost Realms/Angmar Awakened

Supplemental Cycle (for tiebreaker purposes): Haradrim cycle

I created a page for the October Solo League, I hope Dale will forgive my insolence :D and that I did everything correctly.

I think I will pick Wilds of Rhovanion/Ered Mithrin. I will tag @Thanee and @Bobbymcbobface to hear about their choices

Let's do Shadows of Mirkwood for supplemental cycle

I think Thanee is more so on Board Game Geek forum so may want to post/share there as well if you have an account. I’ll exclude Roam Across Rhovanion if it’s not picked as one to play so we up our odds of Dragon combat haha

I also check in here, occasionally. Let's pick Journey Up the Anduin as one of the quests.
