Lost Hobbit Precon - Wormtongue's Incursion
deck Gríma, Saruman's Footman
Aug 12, 2026
I was challenged to make a commander deck with Gríma by gemini.twins.magic who I actually had the pleasure to meet at prerelease! (Thank you to Lindsey for making my prerelease a truly fantastic experience.)
This deck is lead by Gríma, Saruman's Footman, with the sub-commander as Lord of the Nazgûl. My goal with this precon was to make an easy-to-follow, beginner-friendly deck with one major theme; adventures! The deck does function fairly well with either commander in the pilot seat.
The deck only contains cards that really fit the aesthetic of the LOTR (apart from a select few cards that I included purely to help the deck function, just imagine they are reskinned to fit the deck) and contains cards from both the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings sets. I also wanted to include multiple reprints of cards with some value while keeping the overall cost of the deck at least under $150, and create the deck in the same way I envisioned WOTC would create a precon. -Kevin
