I don't have this AP yet, but… quantity should be 1, shouldn't it?
Yes, there's just one Elrond.
Wow, that is quite a stable of cards. I don't disagree this would make him awesome, but any hero can be made awesome with a pile of select expensive cards like that. You certainly can't judge a hero apart from his available card pool, but that list is a little extreme to consider as a viable setup for every game.
Seems he might still fear being wet
Just to clarify: Is it possible to buy a, lets say, tactics ally with a mono-lore deck or do I have to control atleast 1 "real" tactics hero to pay with Elrond?
Thanks in advance!
Yep, you can buy a tactics ally with Elrond.
He's almost one of the most powerful heroes in the game, with Dain and Gandalf.
Been awhile since I've been over here, but I'll respond to this:
I get that setup on him every game. I've always run Elrond in a fast-draw ally deck. Some players don't care about draw, perhaps. I'm at the bottom of my deck on T 7.
Plenty of search in there too, but he does need a buddy who's out of the gate with no setup, just in case the deck comes at you really quickly. Even Elrond needs a meat-shield sometimes.
These days I'm behind the curve in collecting sets, however, so things may have changed, but there are plenty of solutions for getting those cards on him very quickly. Resourceful is late-game icing.
Cheers
Nope. Still doesn't care: just recycle your discards and draw like mad again -- more often than not, I already have a second copy in hand when this sort of thing goes down.
Pay for it again? Bummer. Fear? Not really
Who is "it"? Elrond or the character?
Thx in advance for any reply!!!
Should be the character - if it was a self-refferential ability, it would have said "Elrond" instead of "it".
