Revision 1 · Player's Council · 2021-12-19 Collection Info Title Promise Keeping Unique Yes Collectible No Set 8 - Siege of Gondor Rarity R - Rare Card Number 24 Language EN - English Revision 1 (Player's Council) Release Date 2021-12-19 Notes One of the highlights of the Ninja Gollum strategy, the idea is that you stack up a bunch of threats and then bully a weaker companion either by winning skirmishes with Shelob or a pumped Gollum, playing direct wounding cards as a response to kill that companion, and then doubling the effectiveness of all threats, since the threat wounds count as being applied "during a skirmish". Not every use of Promise Keeping has been abolished with this change, but now the only wounds that can be doubled directly are those of the skirmishing companions. Threats applied to other companions now won't count. We will continue to keep an eye on PK, but this should hopefully pump the breaks.
