I found that the miner didn’t hit every time, but I found it helpful to use the Record Keeper to ready him and try again if I had excess Lore resources but needed Spirit or Leadership cash.Īnother victory! It’s hard to overcome the dwarf swarm. I accomplished both win conditions by killing all the ships and questing through the last stage just for fun. I stayed on course just fine and beat the game on turn 9 after cycling the deck twice and getting nearly all the allies in the deck on the board. I’ve played a couple other mining decks, but hadn’t thought of that combo. I discovered that Dwarves like to tell Very Good Tales while mining! I hadn’t thought of that combo, but A Very Good Tale discards cards from your deck which will get money out of the Hidden Cache and put the Ered Luin Miner into play for free. This style of deck can mill pretty fast and the pipe can relieve some pressure and recycle that Hidden Cache or a card you might want to play later. I’m surprised to see the Dwarf Pipe in the sideboard instead of in the deck. With 30/50 cards bringing in money, the Zigil Miner should easily hit one success with an average attempt. Looking over the cost curve we have 24 cards costing 2 plus the Ered Luin Miner and Hidden Caches which brings the total number of”mineable” cards up to 30. Mining decks benefit from either scouting the top cards through the Imladris Stargazer or they tend to run a high number of 2-cost cards to the Miner will generate plenty of money. The Mining cards that aren’t usually seen in the usual swarm include the Ered Luin Miner, Ered Nimrais Prospector, Hidden Cache, and the Zigil Miner and King Under the Mountain are more common, but central to making this archetype work. Dain supports questing and defends while Nori and Ori quest and provide momentum with card draw and stability with threat reduction. This mining deck was created and uploaded to RingsDB by WingfootRanger who has published man fine decks, including a couple that I have featured on this blog. The “Dwarf swarm” style of deck was heavily developed early in the game’s lifetime, but there are other options for building fun dwarf decks with the Mining Deck being one of the most interesting. It’s true that they have some very powerful options available that can become overpowered if built “correctly,” but I don’t think they deserve the “disdain” that sometimes gets thrown at them. Please support the original artists who are making such excellent artwork for this game.There seems to be a dwarf revival! The RingsDB homepage has been dominated by dwarf decks all week! I’m happy to see dwarves get some play again! Maybe the recent errata has been healthy for the dwarves. I do not own any of the art featured on this site.
