General Strategy

This version of Gollum works well with several different decks. One of the most notable strategies is to use this Gollum in conjunction with Isengard Tender and Sweeter Meats who can exhaust the ring-bearer right before using Gollum to wound the ring-bearer. Since only Isildur's Bane is the only One Ring that can take burdens during the regroup phase, this card will often let you to win the game outright. This card could also work as a way to prevent the fellowship from moving by adding large amounts of Twilight.
