Hello,

I’m planning to upgrade the Hosts of Mordor deck and would like to know if you guys have any suggestions.

One thing i’m planning to do is to try to use only cards from the set for two reasons: to keep the flavor and also to not increase too much of the power level. Or, at least, use very little cards that aren’t from the set.

Also, it seems to be a good idea to replace Sauron, Lord of the Rings with Sauron, The Dark Lord as a commander and i plan to do it.

      Those two commander options are different cards, I’d probably make that change too.

      The biggest reason to go out of LotR cards would be to put in some changelings so you can use the amass to pump many creatures instead of just one. Inside LotR I don’t see many ways to cash in on having a giant Army.

        Unless you are using proliferation amass can only go one one army at a time.

        It functions similar to bolster where as the ability resolves you select what gets the tokens, but it does not target. That keeps the mechanic from fizzling if someone snipes your desired target.

          Yes, but if you have multiple armies (hence the need for changelings) you can pick which of them get the counters.
