This will allow you to gain the life you need to activate Frodo, and also drain life from your opponents.

One of the strongest synergies with this strategy is between Frodo, Adventurous Hobbit and extort mechanics.

This deck is largely built around the new The Ring Tempts You mechanic, and other effects that drain life from your opponents. This allows you to play a deck that tells a story while also staying competitive in the game. There are several ways to drain life from all of them at the same time, while also gaining you life. While I did have to include some cards from other Magic sets to round out its strategy, this deck largely follows Frodo’s journey with Sam and Gollum after being separated from the Fellowship.Īpart from being thematic, I found that this deck can be punishing to your opponents. That’s what I’ve tried to do with this Frodo, Adventurous Hobbit deck. Because this Universes Beyondinstallment included an entire set and a Commander supplement it’s also possible to build decks that are largely thematic and use a lot of cards set in the Lord of the Rings universe.Īs one of the most important characters in Lord of the Rings, Frodo Baggins obviously gets a lot of focus in this set, making it possible to create a deck that largely follows his journey across Middle-earth. The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth ( LTR) offered a lot of great new commanders to build around. Frodo, Adventurous Hobbit | Illustration by Axel Sauerwald
