This Gimli acts as essentially a poor-man's Gandalf's Cart for saving cards you've drawn too early but aren't essential to your strategy (Shield of Boromir before its owner, for example). This should of course not be used for essential cards (Aragorn's Bow, Horn of Boromir), but has the advantage of being able to save large Shadow minions for later (The Balrog being an excellent example, as you have no need to keep him around in Fellowship block with The Bridge of Khazad-Dum being a reliable source of drawing it again). | This Gimli acts as essentially a poor-man's Gandalf's Cart for saving cards you've drawn too early but aren't essential to your strategy (Shield of Boromir before its owner, for example).
