A lesser-used version of Legolas, Son of Thranduil is dependent on the adventure path, and his ability to add to the [[archery]] total draws comparisons with {{Card|1R50}}, who can also deal out multiple wounds during the archery phase—but with the added bonus of targeting specific minions. | A lesser-used version of Legolas, Son of Thranduil is dependent on the adventure path, and his ability to add to the [[archery]] total draws comparisons with {{Card|1R50}}, who can also deal out multiple wounds during the archery phase—but with the added bonus of targeting specific minions. | ||
Nevertheless, this version of [[Legolas]] does have the advantage of not needing to sacrifice his own vitality in order to generate additional archery, which in turn allows a player to engage in skirmishes with this character more confidently—and perhaps to invest in cards like {{Card|1R33}} and {{Card|3R21}}.

Alternately, you can use his vitality for cards like {{Card|Splendor of their Banners}} or {{Card|White Arrows of Lorien}}. However, in formats after [[Fellowship Block]], he starts to compete with other versions of himself: {{Card|Legolas, Fearless Marksman}}, {{Card|Legolas, Woodland Emissary}}, and {{Card|Legolas, of the Grey Company}} are all alternatives that can contribute an extra wound under different conditions, without exerting themselves. | ||
Because this version of Legolas is all about the archery total, one of his best uses is in an archery-storm deck, supported by characters with {{Card|1C41}}, and a copy of [[Aragorn]] with {{Card|1R90}}. Additional single-use cards like {{Card|1R38}}, {{Card|3R41}} and {{Card|2C10}} can help in boosting numbers. | Because this version of Legolas is all about the archery total, one of his best uses is in an archery-storm deck, supported by characters with {{Card|1C41}}, and a copy of [[Aragorn]] with {{Card|1R90}}.

* More [[archery]] and [[direct wounding]], from cards like {{Card|Elven Bow}}, {{Card|Aragorn's Bow}}, {{Card|Gondor Bowmen}}, {{Card| | * More [[archery]] and [[direct wounding]], from cards like {{Card|Elven Bow}}, {{Card|Aragorn's Bow}}, {{Card|Gondor Bowmen}}, {{Card|Splendor of their Banners}}, and many others. Archery benefits from reaching a critical mass where it goes from wounding many minions to actually landing kills. | ||
* An [[adventure deck]] full of [[river]] and [[forest]] [[site]]s. In [[Fellowship Block]], this can be every site except 4 and 5. In [[Towers Block]], this is only possible at site 2, and in [[King Block]], only at 4 and 7 (although this is ameliorated partially by the popularity of <!--Anduin Banks-->{{Card|7U341}} and the site 7 rivers). In post-[[Shadows]] formats, there are many forests and rivers and they can be played at any site number, but this is offset in large part by the existence of stronger versions of Legolas by that point. | * An [[adventure deck]] full of [[river]] and [[forest]] [[site]]s.
