Strategy[edit]
Any strength-boosting possession is a welcome addition to any deck, and Dwarven Axe is no exception. Besides having a 0 Twilight cost, and thus free transfer from Dwarf to Dwarf during your Fellowship Phase as needed, the ability is a staple to many of the discard decks around. Also, makes Axe Strike (1C3)
a much better pump for bearer, allowing Gimli, Son of Gloin (1R13)
, Glóin, Friend to Thorin (2R7)
and Frór, Gimli's Kinsman (2C6)
to beat strong minions without much effort.
