	~~== Gameplay Strategy ==~~		'''Pippin, Brave Decoy''' is an interesting version of [[Pippin]]. He is one of the few ways to replace a companion in a skirmish, and does it the easiest too. While at first glance it seems like a simple [[speed bump]] companion, he has a variety of uses.
	''~~In this section~~, ~~describe:~~''

	* '~~'General usage''~~		The first use would be to boost Pippin's strength, then have him fight every minion on the board. There are a variety of ways to do this. The first is with the classic {{Card\|Everyone Knows}}/{{Card\|Escape}} [[combo]]. Additionally you can incorporate {{Card\|Little Golden Flower}}, which can give up to five extra strength with all your conditions and a {{Card\|Hobbit Sword}} on Pippin. The other popular way to boost Pippin is with [[Followers]]. Using the {{C\|Shire}} followers is the most effective, as {{Card\|Frodo Gamgee, Son of Samwise}} can augment {{Card\|Everyone Knows}}, and {{Card\|Hobbiton Farmer, Lover of Pipeweed}} can be key against [[Nazgûl]], especially [[Forestguls]].
	* ''Unorthodox or subtle usage''
	* ''Common pitfalls of ~~using~~ this ~~card''~~

	~~== Deckbuilding Strategy ==~~		The other use for Pippin is to use the [[Rise of Saruman]] [[pipeweed]] conditions to have him replace every companion in a skirmish and then cancel every skirmish using {{Card\|Halfling Leaf}}. This strategy usually incorporates [[Gandalf]] to use {{Card\|Ship Of Smoke}} and [[mill]] through your deck quickly.
	~~''In this section, describe:''~~

	* ''Cards and ~~strategies this card works well with''~~		A more unconventional use of Brave Decoy would be to have him replace a companion in a skirmish, then have [[Boromir]] replace him with {{Card\|Blade of Gondor, Sword of Boromir}}. This is a very convoluted strategy, though, and is very difficult to pull off.
	* ''Cards and strategies this card works particularly well or poorly against''
	* ''Alternate cards you might consider picking instead of ~~this one~~, ~~depending on~~ the ~~situation, including alternate version of characters''~~		The bane of Brave Decoy is {{Card\|Cavern Entrance}}. It is a hard stop to both Pippin inherently and to the [[Skirmish Cancellation]] route. Other than that, it is quite difficult to kill Pippin with all the skirmish canceling and healing the {{C\|Shire}} culture has access to.
