Such a great hero ... it could only be Strider.Sword that was Broken (TWitW), Celebrian's Stone (Core) and Rivendell Bow (TWitW) are the evidences which certify he's the Big Boss.
Team him up with Boromir for a nice 1-2 punch. Boromir blocks, readies, then he and Aragorn attack.
Certainly a five star hero, in my opinion. Beside's being referenced on a lot of cards (as xanferatu mentioned above), he can single-handedly lower your threat by a lot, as much as 30 or more in some games. He's a good team with Glorfindel if you're going a secrecy route, although as of now that theme is still pretty underdeveloped, imo.
I think he deserves a 1 or a 2 for rating. All the mentioned cards are from another spehere, you have to build dual decks, which is not a problem first place, (I usually use 2 or 3 speheres in a deck) but from the Lore sphere there are far more better heroes (all the dwarfs, Denethor, and Bilbo)
He hss a horror high threath. For that threat he should have at least 3 willpower, or 3 defense. But in this form he is not a beast, just a decent hero, who should have 10 or 9 threat to be worth consider playing.
For solo he is amazing. To reduce your threat 20 + points mid to late game makes quests like dol Guldur, return to Mirkwood, more reasonable to win. I like to pair him with Frodo. He also makes playing Gandalf (OHaUH) a possibility to keep him in play for a number of rounds. 5 stars.
