This is an updated roster to my previous deck and I've had more consistency with it. I got rid of 3x Test of Will and 2x The Day's Rising since The Day's Rising requires that I have Armor of Erebor on Dain and if I dont have 1 of the 2 of them on him then its a dead card and thats no bueno. The Test of Will were a tough choice to remove but I could never seem to get them into my hand and they did me no good in the discard pile so out they went.

King Under the Mountain was added to help my card draw and my ability to find the cards I needed which worked really well when paired with Gildor. A Very Good Tale was added because Ered Luin Miner and Hidden Cache could trigger and I'll get (hopefully) a couple of outland allies along with a few resources or extra dwarf ally.

If there are any other changes you might add to this deck to help its performance I'm all ears as I can not find out what other cards I should trim down on and which to maybe add.

would add imladris stargazer (for gandalf). every mining deck needs her ;). then, you have men of the west, dont need stand and fight, would reuse test of will, best card in the game.

second breakfast? i would take cram or miruvor for it.

@doomguard Thanks for the advice, I dont have an available cram because its in my Dale deck. Without Gandalf in the deck then should I also remove Sneak Attack? I will add in a couple stargazers and bring back ToW and give it a few goes.

consider to take "we where not idle" instead of sneak attack. it makes your deck faster, and, if you put in some courage, you can play courage in 1 round, and ready dain after that. if the courage is in a different deck (i asume ;) ) idle is good for getting zigil+stargazer sooner on the table. another option to get zigil+stargazer sooner is to put in some errant rider to switch ressources to dain before the mining engine has startet.
