Awesome!  I will be getting a TON of these. 

Ok Gandalf for my deck and Eye of Sauron for encounter deck is a sure thing.

I think that even if i quit this game those cards and sleeves will have a place in my Middle-Earth colection librery.

 I am not feeling the Gimli sleeves....  Wandering Took on some sleeves... who knows?  The nazgul ones are pretty rad.

I got pretty excited when I saw the anouncement...but I am not so sure I like all of them. I actually I am not so convinced by the eye of sauron, one ring and gimli sleeves. I wonder if they look a lot better in real (I wouldn't be surprised).

How does this works?? You use a sleeve with an art for 1 deck? that is like 50 sleeves right? or you mix them all??

I'm a noob with card games and these type of boardgames =(

You can use them as you want. You can even put your beverages on them

But to answer your question, you put your cards in them.  What cards you put in what sleeves isn't really relevant, although I wouldn't put them in the 'opposite' sleeves than the natural backings

Now I totally want to bring my (future) deck to a tournament (if/when they happen) using the opposite sleeves.

I plan on using Eye of Sauron for the encounter deck cards and then use the others for a different deck, maybe Gimli for a tactics deck, Gandalf for a leadership deck, etc. Nazgul I will use for this game and an AGoT decks just cause they are awesome.

 Eye of Sauron, One Ring, Nazgul. Excellent aesthetic on all of those. Gandalf and Golden Wood Singer are quite nice as well, but I tend to favor darker or more stylized/iconic images for my card sleeves, rather than character depictions.

Regardless, definitely going to pick some up whenever I finally decide to get around to buying some FFG art sleeves.
