Adds: Cuts: Further Upgrades If you want to stick to LOTR-only cards but don't mind spending extra cash, here's my suggestions on further pickups (the site links the cheapest version but there's also a LOTR version for each of these): Lands: Ancient Tomb, Barad-dur, Mount Doom, Mines of Moria, Reflecting Pool, Rivendell, Shinka, the Bloodsoaked Keep, Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth Ramp: Sword of Hearth and Home Draw: The One Ring (obviously) Protection: Lightning Greaves, Mithril Coat Removal: Raise the Palisade, Shadowspear, Swan Song, The Balrog, Durin's Bane Busted: Orcish Bowmasters Two Down, Two To Go
