I love this deck. It's not easy to play, but it's very rewarding if you can make it work.

Mulligan for Gandalf and try to equip him with his toys as fast as possible (you can play him on turn one). Keep him in play as long as you can. There are all sorts of readying and action advantage shenanigans you can do here. Remember about Galadriel's passive ability - it makes Saruman really useful here (he can both quest and attack/defend).

Ever Vigilant works great with Treebeard - you can ready him and quest with him without exausting on the turn you play him (thanks to Galadriel).

Word of Command can be played on Saruman to draw Gandalf when he readies in the refresh phase.

I'm still experimenting with card drawing abilities that allow me to fetch Gandalf if I don't get him in my opening hand (can't decide between Heed the Dream, Deep Knowledge and Mirror of Galadriel). Pick the combination that suits your style best. If you don't want to spread so much Doom, swap Deep Knowledge for card-drawing abilities from the side board.

Experiment and have fun with this deck, I think it's pretty original in its concept and I'm pretty proud of it ;).
