I wanted to make a deck that had an aggressive token strategy that also focuses on card draw to go along with the recruit mechanic. I wanted this deck to feel entirely in the world of Lord of the Rings, so no legendary creatures, names of people or places outside of LotR, or things that don't feel like they could thematically fit into the world. I felt it was only natural to also tie in the themes of the Riders of Rohan precon as well, because they fit into everything that the recruit mechanic wants to be doing, so this deck also has human tribal and monarch themes in the deck as well. I wanted this deck to feel like a precon so I have included cards from the main set into the deck with a limit of only one mythic and one rare card, as well as limiting the number of mythic and rare cards I include in the deck overall. Thank you so much for checking out my TCC Hobbit Precon submission, Strategic Assault and I hope you enjoy my deck!! :)
