Doomed! Deck (Solo)

By kyrie, in Strategy and deck-building

Just thought I would share this "Doomed!" deck with you all. It has been doing really well against the new scenarios in the Voice of Isengard (although technically it is not allowed for the first quest since it uses Grima, but if Grey Company guys can use 2 Spirit Glorfindel's, why not 2 Grima's? ;) )

I will post my solo version first, and then show how it works (even better) with multiplayer, since it takes advantage of Lorgorn's ability for both players via Desperate Alliance (still do not understand the official ruling on that one, in my opinion, they should change the once per game to mean once and only once per game, no matter who is controlling the character).

Anyways, here it is below:

HERO (3):

Aragorn (Lore)

Glorfindel (Spirit)

Grima

ALLY (20):

Saruman x3

Gandalf (Hobbit) x2

Arwen Undomiel x2

The Riddermark’s Finest x2

Anborn x1

Dori x1

Isengard Messenger x3

Master of the Forge x2

Warden of Healing x2

Erebor Hammersmith x2

ATTACHMENT (18):

Keys of Orthanc x3

Light of Valinor x3

Miruvor x2

Unexpected Courage x1

Silver Lamp x1

Ranger Spikes x3

Asfaloth x2

Protector of Lorien x2

A Burning Brand x1

EVENT (17):

The Seeing-Stone x3

A Test of Will x2

Dwarven Tomb x1

Elrond's Counsel x3

Power of Orthanc x2

Deep Knowledge x3

Daeron's Runes x3

You would rather use Elrond's Counsel than Galadhrim's Greeting when you can use Grimace to lower the cost of GG to 2? Hmmmm.

Yes, believe it or not, even with all the doomed cards your threat does not get out of hand at all (thanks to Aragorn's ability). Notice too how I have the Hobbit Gandalf instead of Core Gandalf who could reduce my threat instead of increase it even more. Elrond's Counsel is just right with reducing 3 threat for free. I had it in at first, but the Galadhrim's Greeting I found was unnecessary.
