Deck overview

This Orzhov deck leverages Frodo, Sauron's Bane and The Lord of the Rings mechanics to create a lethal, combat-based elimination engine. The primary plan involves deploying Frodo on Turn 1, leveling him through his Scout and Rogue forms, and rapidly stacking four Ring temptations through nine copies of Nazgûl, Call of the Ring, and assorted support spells. Once fully active, Frodo eliminates opponents in a single hit upon dealing combat damage. Unblockability is ensured via the Ring's innate evasion, lands like The Black Gate and Access Tunnel, or Equipment like Bilbo's Ring and Whispersilk Cloak. A dense suite of premium White protection spells shields Frodo from interaction, while low-power asymmetric sweepers like The Battle of Bywater and Dusk // Dawn clear opposing blockers without harming your own board. If Frodo is unavailable, the nine Nazgûl scale rapidly into massive evasive beaters.
