An underrated hero in my opinion. You have to build a deck around him to make him work, but it is worth it in my opinion. Basically Gloin + Forest Spider (Core) + Daughter of the Nimrodel (Core) = Steward of Gondor (Core).
I agree. Gloin + Daughter of Nimrondel is core mechanic in many of my decks - pre Zigil Miner at least. Is probably still more reliable.
Agreed. Play Glorfindel (Core) for your lore hero and if you are 3 sphere, add tactics for
Horn of Gondor (Core) and Song of Mocking (TDM) plus Song of Battle (TDM) and Song of Wisdom (CatC) and Gloin becomes an insane resource prducer.
