Strategy

A middling-weak card, usually used as part of a Gollum splash in a corruption deck.

In a vacuum, this card is on par with It Wants to be Found (2U78) and The Ring is Mine! (10U97) . However, winning skirmishes with Gollum is fairly resource-intensive due to his generally low strength, and this card will clog up your hand until you do. To win skirmishes with Gollum, you'll generally need to invest in pumps or a secondary strategy like stacking threats, self-milling, or swarming minions. There are exceptions that can stand on their own, like Gollum, Stinker (5R25) and Gollum, Old Villain (6C40) , but even those aren't especially reliable. Every card you dedicate to pumping up Gollum or focusing on a secondary strategy isn't a card dedicated to adding burdens or supporting your main Shadow culture. As a result, this rarely fits into a deck.

Strengths and Weaknesses

Synergizes With...

• Any card that adds burdens, like It Wants to be Found (2U78) and The Ring is Mine! (10U97)

Strong Versus...

• Alternate Ring-bearers with low Resistance
• Decks that mainly lose skirmishes, although most of these decks also have strong burden removal

Weak Versus...

• Burden removal, especially Sam, Son of Hamfast (1C311) and A Light in His Mind (10U108)
• High-resistance Ring-bearers, either inherently (any version of Frodo, especially Frodo, Resolute Hobbit (10P121) ) or from cards like Salt from the Shire (11R171) or Galadriel's Silver Ewer (18R11)
