General Strategy

Combined with Longbottom Leaf and the six pipes of Fellowship block, Old Toby forms the basis of the Pipeweed strategy. With cards to heal companions, remove burdens, remove twilight, and recycle tales into the draw deck, Pipeweed decks are “Swiss Army Knives”, keeping the Free Peoples healthy and powerful. As the Pipeweed strategy is largely possession and event based, Old Toby adds additional drawing capabilties. Combined with Longbottom Leaf, which draws a card, Old Toby is at the heart (and lungs) of the Pipeweed deck.

Strengths and Weaknesses

Strong Versus...

• Fuel of the Pipeweed strategy to remove wounds, burdens, twilight, or recycle tales
