PS--DOT combos nicely with Horn of Gondor and Prince Imrahil.
DoT is a little expensive. With only two HP's I'd prefer him to cost 3, but then he'd be insanely good. But, his ability is really good, especially in creature swarm scenarios. Direct Damage is so hard to come by in the early card cycles, that you have to consider 2 of these in almost heavy Tactics deck using just Mirkwood and Khazad-Dum.
This card is best used in conjunction with Sneak Attack, during the Travel Phase.
That's a solid 4 damage, into the Staging Area, that can even be spread among some of the annoying small enemies, right after the Quest has staged the baddies (for the cost of 1 resource). At the end of the phase, you either pull it back for a rinse-and-repeat, or you stick it under Eagles of the Misty Mountains.
I've killed trolls with it. It's excellent. 3x + 3x Sneak Attack.
It works well during the quest/staging phase as well if the 2 dmg upon him entering can kill off something to reduce the overall threat in the staging area.
