This tournament is part of the Living Tournament system. You are welcome to read this, play the scenario, and post your results (in that order). Place well enough, and you may just end up with a Living Tournament World Ranking !

Scenario: Journey Down the Anduin
Deck Parameters: Open Build*
Number of Players: 2 Players

Tournament Parameters:

1) This is a Living Tournament. You may play and post results at your own pace.
2) *Open Build means you may use any legal LOTR LCG cards at your availability.
3) A valid result in this tournament consists of reporting your results (wins and losses) from 3 back-to-back games (may be spread out over as much time as you like), using the same deck for each of those 3 games. (Please observe the mulligan rule, and all other rules, from the LOTR LCG rulebook and subsequent official FAQ documents.)
4) After you post your results, the results from your 3 games will be calibrated using the RGun formula** to obtain your Weighted Result.
5) Weighted Results will then be ranked against other player’s Weighted Results, and the rankings will be updated over time as new results are posted to the thread.
6) You may play this tournament as many times as you would like (so you can try out different deck builds over time), but you can only hold one spot in the overall tournament rankings at a time (i.e. this gives you a chance to try and best your own result while only occupying one spot in the rankings).
7) Do not cheat. Just don’t. It destroys the fun and integrity of the tournament system. If you realize you have made a mistake at a later date that had serious implications for a result you had posted in the past, please make a new post in this thread drawing attention to that fact – that past result will be invalidated, and of course, you are welcome (and highly encouraged) to try again.

**The RGun formula has been designed to value both Final Score (per game) and overall Win Ratio (from your 3 games, cumulative). The formula is: (Average Score of Games Won) x (Total Games Played/Games Won). For an expanded discussion on how this formula was created, you can read the thread called Measuring Success .

Hi theNat! First, welcome to the Living Tournaments!!

Curious about this post. It's in the 2 Player Scenario, but you've only got one set of heroes listed.

You've listed 2 sets of threat tracker scores, so I'm guessing this is right, but before I make the update, can you add the other heroes used?

Thanks!

Thanks for notice, my bad. 2nd player heros set was: Dain Ironfoot/Gimli/Thalin

Beravor, Glorfindel, Denethor / Legolas, Gimli, Eowyn

Glorfindel from FoS. My collection consists of Core x1, CatC, JtR, KD, RG, FoS.

Lucky that I started with a Gandalf for each game with my first player which was used to deal with the Hill Troll each time. Unlucky in second game to draw a second Hill Troll just before progressing to final stage of quest. Had to add an additional round to deal with him before progressing to the next quest stage plus had to sacrifice Eowyn. Drew two wolves that each didn't receive shadow card bonuses that were returned to the staging area that extended that game as well. That game had my best start but by far my worst finish.

Juicebox,

It doesn't look like you updated my scores to reflect my improved score on October 3. If you could take that into account next time you update, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

Hi Rob, I see what I did. Entered your new score but forgot to delete your old one from the Top Ten. Should be all fixed now.

Good catch! Thanks.
