Strategy[edit]

Cheap Tracker to use with Under the Watching Eye or Tol Brandir. Strong versus decks with Hobbit support (Merry, Friend to Sam; Sam, Son of Hamfast) since Frodo can always be spotted (prior to Reflections). Can be played in multiples to harass multiple hobbits. Mostly obsolete after the release of The Return of the King's Initiative based Trackers.

Strengths and Weaknesses[edit]

Strong Versus...[edit]

  • Support Hobbit companions (Merry, Friend to Sam; Sam, Son of Hamfast)

Weak Versus...[edit]

  • Hobbit strength boosts (Hobbit Sword; Boromir, Son of Denethor)
