| '''Sudden Strike''' is one of the strongest [[searching]] tools in the game. Adding to the {{C|Gollum}} culture's already popular and splashable [[recursion]] kit of {{Card|Evil-Smelling Fens}}, {{Card|Web}}, {{Card|Captured by the Ring}}, and any version or versions of [[Gollum]], Sudden Strike gives a new dimension to splashing [[Gollum]].
| |
|
| |
|
| In the popular [[Ninja Gollum]] strategy in [[Expanded]] and [[Standard]], Sudden Strike can be used very effectively. It can be used to play [[Gollum]] (if your opponent plays [[Smeagol]]) then [[fetch]] {{Card|Web}} to play Gollum consistently, or it can play [[Shelob]] and grab {{Card|Web}}. Alternatively, you can [[fetch]] a [[splashed]] [[hate]] minion, such as {{Card|Ulaire Enquea, Lieutenant of Morgul}}, {{Card|Grima, Wormtongue}}, or {{Card|Southron Leader}} to counter whatever your opponent is doing.
| |
|
| |
|
| Sudden Strike is also used in several other strategies such as [[Corsairs]] and [[Expanded]] [[Threat Nazgul]]. In [[Corsairs]], {{Card|Gollum, Plotting Deciever}} is used alongside {{Card|Corsair War Galley}} and is played continously to use cards like {{Card|Evil-Smelling Fens}} and Sudden Strike to recur or [[fetch]] either a choice [[Corsair]] or a [[hate]] minion, much like its use in [[Ninja Gollum]]. In [[Threat Nazgul]], Sudden Strike is used with {{Card|Gollum, Threatening Guide}} to [[fetch]] key Nazgûl and [[hate]] minions, all the while providing [[threats]] to fuel the strategy.

|
| The quirkiest (and one of the strongest) [[Shadow]] sides in [[Expanded]] is designed around Sudden Strike and [[Gollum]]. It utilizes cards like {{Card|Gollum, Her Sneak}}, {{Card|Captured by the Ring}}, and {{Card|Web}} to replay [[Gollum]], then searches with Sudden Strike and recurs with {{Card|Evil-Smelling Fens}} to grab the best minions for the occasion.
