Revision 1 · Player's Council · 2021-04-30 Collection Info Title Aggression Unique No Collectible No Set 8 - Siege of Gondor Rarity C - Common Card Number 1 Language EN - English Revision 1 (Player's Council) Release Date 2021-04-30 Notes Lists: SXL, EXL, MXL Decipher Notes: Not found. With the Reflections Dwarven Rings of Power easily permitting Dwarves to get to high levels of damage bonus, each usage of Aggression easily hit the Rule of 4 cap. And since Dwarves have plenty of means of recycling conditions (such as Defending the Keep (5C6)), the card draw was simply too much. We have reduced the draw to 1, since the actual damage bonus from the card itself is also quite impactful.

Strategy

A popular Movie Block stratergy is useless without agression. Just before worlds 2004 Agression was banned for some reason. A deck stratergy is to just beef up your dwarves so they're usually around Damage + 6 or occasionally 7. Can be used with any version of Gimli with his native Damage bonus or a full playset of Lord of Moria (1C21) for extra damage Bonuses. The full Damage stratergy also includes Blood Runs Chill (8R3).
