My first try on Living Tournament (or any online tournament) because I don't have much time to play the game.  This Easter holiday gives me some spare time to sit down and play three games back to back and here's my result:

Heroes: Dain Ironfoot, Bifur, Thalin

Game 1: Result: 82
Final Threat Level: 32
Threat Cost of Each Dead Hero: 0
Damage Tokens on Remaining Heroes: 0
Victory Points Earned:0
Number of Rounds Completed:5

Game 2: Result: 110
Final Threat Level: 34
Threat Cost of Each Dead Hero: 0
Damage Tokens on Remaining Heroes: 6 (Dain 3, Thalin 3)
Victory Points Earned:0
Number of Rounds Completed:7

 

 

Game 3: Result: Loss

The first two games both have "Don't leave the path" as 3B.  All 3 games I haven't drawn any Gandalf.  In game 2, I have Ungoliant's Spawn as an Encounter, so besides getting the 10 progresses, I have also had to kill the spider.

Game 1's encounter: 1st round: Caught in a Web; 2nd: Hummerhong; 3rd: Chieftain Ufthak; 4th: Mountains of Mirkwood; 5th: Dol Guldor Orcs; 6th: Forest Spider.

In game 3, the first encounter is also a Caught in a Web. Then every encouter is an Enemy. I just don't have enough characters to deal with them, so my heroes are defeated one by one.

Once ... Always ...

Correction: the quest phase 3B of both first two games are "Beorn's Path"

Interesting how consistent those were. Round 2 ended one turn earlier because I got Celebrians Stone early and got Beorns Path for 3b. 50 card deck I normally play with Dwalin instead of Eowyn but this one is all about travelling fast as possible.

Only reason reason for loss on game 2 was picking the wrong path and getting jumped by Ungoliant's Spawn.

This one is quite easy, but wanted to try a Lore deck, because lately I was using very little this sphere. I have to refine my deck, but mainly I want a big card advance, and threat reduction. I will check it against other quests.

Heroes: Eowyn, Aragorn, Theodred
Game 1 Result: 71
Final Threat Level: 17
Threat Cost of Each Dead Hero: 0
Damage Tokens on Remaining Heroes: 4 (2 on Aragorn, 2 on Theodred)
Victory Points Earned: 0
Number of Rounds Completed: 5 (Don´t Leave the Path)
I have a good starting hand with Steward of Gondor, and 2 Gandalfs which caused 8 wounds on Ungolianth; I used 3 Galadrims Greeting (1 with Dwarven Tomb), and because that I have a good threath. Very solid combination for this scenario at first.

Game 2 Result: 81
Final Threat Level: 28
Threat Cost of Each Dead Hero:0
Damage Tokens on Remaining Heroes: 3 (On Aragorn)
Victory Points Earned: 0
Number of Rounds Completed: 5 (Don´t Leave the Path)
I got a Unexpected Courage at round 2, and has Aragorn questing, defending and attacking every turn. 2 Snowbourn Csouts was converted in Spider Food, but their sacrifice makes me kill the Ungoliant Spawn in 2 rounds. A good result, mainly considering that Gandalf do not show up any time, and I only has time to use 1 Galad´s Greeting.

Game 3 Result: 71
Final Threat Level: 28
Threat Cost of Each Dead Hero: 0
Damage Tokens on Remaining Heroes: 3 (1 on each)
Victory Points Earned: 0
Number of Rounds Completed: 4 (Don´t Leave the Path)
Well, now Gandalf showed up 2 times (1 Sneaked) and I managed to take 1 round less to make the game. A solid deck, and even not get a better result of all times, this looks more solid to make it 3 times.

3 Ancient Mathom
2 A Test of Will

I bet Boromir was the one who chose the path...

 Hi guys, I just got all my cards this week, here are my first games: 

Heroes:  Aragorn, Eowyn, Theodred
 
Game 1 Result:  Loss
 
Really had a tough time.  Ended up with five enemies engaged and no chance.
 
 
Game 2 Result:  Win!!  88
Final Threat Level:  34
Threat Cost of Each Dead Hero:  0
Damage Tokens on Remaining Heroes:  4
Victory Points Earned:  0
Number of Rounds Completed:  5
 
This was a crazy game and my first win.  I ended up with Beron's Path, and during the first staging the big spider came out!  A well timed Gandalf and an Aragorn buffed with attachments finally did him in. 
 
Game 3 Result:  Another win!  72
Final Threat Level:  32
Threat Cost of Each Dead Hero:  0
Damage Tokens on Remaining Heroes:  0
Victory Points Earned:  0
Number of Rounds Completed:  4
 
This game went a bit easier.  Got a sneak attack and Gandalf in the opening hand and quickly made it to the final stage, Dont leave the path.  At this point I had low threat and was able to build up enough to defeat him quickly, with another Gandalf to help.
 
 
I am pleased with finally winning, for an easy quest it was quite a fight at times!  I think I will do a bit of deck building and give this a go a few more times before moving on.

Thanks for reposting RMcM! I calculate your Weighted Result as 95. Let me know if I'm off somewhere.

It's me who is off. All this reposting made me put a mistake in this result. As you can see above, I haven't reduced the number of rounds in the third game. I am reposting it for a third time. I hope that I make it right at last. Sorry for the extra work, juicebox.

Alright, I'm going to start hammering through these Living Tournaments. For the first one, I figured I needed someone who could knock out as many enemies as I encountered, as well as ample threat reduction to keep me pushing forward aggressively. I think Spirit/Tactics might be my favorite combination. It's very aggressive.
