Strategy[edit]
Skeptical Guide is one of the more interesting versions of Legolas, though he is not the most useful. The ability to trade 2 threats for a wound is expensive and runs out fast, so without threat removal like Citadel to Gate (7R33)
, Into the West (7C23)
, and Stronger and More Terrible (8C47)
, he will be a dead card. Most times he is outshone by cards like Legolas, Greenleaf (1R50)
and Legolas, Woodland Emissary (11R22)
, and is much weaker than Aragorn’s Bow, Ranger's Longbow (15R56)
. With the prevalence of threat adding in the Expanded and Standard meta, he is very unreliable.

, and White Hand Taskmaster (17R132)
- Rallying Call (10U47)
