In the books it is noted that small creatures in the shire are terrified of the adept throwing skills of hobbits. I'm paraphrasing because I'm tired but it's my favourite little bit of info in the books that adds so much to the movies.
While I doubt he'll do better than Aragorn and Treebeard (and maybe not even L+G) I'd love to see Glorfindel. I'm hoping he gets a little buff in the next edition, as he's one of my favourite minor/secondary characters in the books and should be an absolute beast.
We gotta get my bois Murin and Drar in there! Murin has bonus to wounding goblins orcs and uruk hai and Drar has expert shot so he could potentially do some damage so they could do pretty well I reckon
They're a really good idea..Aaron loves them too, but we're holding on the arena until the new edition for now and then it might actually as a good way to showcase some updated profiles! 🤞
My favourite MESBG series, well done! I'm really surprised at how well Treebeard did since we don't see him often in matched play 😅 Since everyone is going Thranduil, I'd go for Tauriel + King Thorin!
First appearance of Merry and Pippin. Hopefully it's not their last. Last time I've asked for Merry, Pippin, Sam, Frodo and Bill. And you did point out there's room for Smeagol. This time, I will ask for more hobbits! From the Defender of the Shire LL: Merry, Pippin, Baldo, Sam and Rosie and Fredeger.
While I know other heros will do better, I'd love to see Thorins company get a crack. Especially with Bifur specifically among the 200 points. A heroic move every turn could shake things up for the stout fellows.
Yeah, I'm all here for thematic groups! And they might do ok if you could get four of the lesser dwarves together and try to keep the numbers advantage.
I still think Boromir with the horn of Gondor can get really far against those low courage enemies. Agains courage 2 enemies he has a 21/36 chance to win the battle without having to fight. And with 6 might he can save himself if he has a bad fight rol.
@@twotreesgaming Agreed to both those points. I think if you gave him like ten tries he could get to the end, but Finnish Sniper Team Merry and Pippin is probably unique to this one.
Love these arena vids, but I knew my man Treebeard would come through to be the new champ. Can’t wait to see the next one and thanks for another amazing vid👍 Maybe Gilgalad or the Twins for the next one?
Gil-Galad is my go-to comfort model, Aaron and Louis don't let me use him any more..! I've gone weird with my pic, just to see how it does. Hopefully a Patreon pics Gilly though
I think I need a treebeard. 😂 I understand good heroes are typically more cracked. Curious to see if you have any evil heroes lined up to play the arena. Most of the killy evil heroes are monsters and thus too expensive for the points limit you have set.
If you buy him, let GW know you got the idea here 😂 And yep, got my submission up next time which is a combo of evil heroes I've not seen suggested yet..!
I think some of these hero’s could technically do better when used in certain legiondary legions e.g. Legolas and Gimli should have been taken from the breaking of the fellowship legiondary legion where they both get more bonuses Aragorn could have been taken from grey company where he would have got anduril for free (still under 200)
Yeah with Aragorn we wanted a measuring stick to test all the other solo heroes against, and he's definitely a fitting choice. For Legolas & Gimli, it still has to be a legal selection and for Breaking of the Fellowship you'd have to take Aragorn...
I can only imagine Thranduil on foot with circlet, additional sword, heavy armor and bow. Potentially 8-9 attacks when surrounded
Agreed! Thranduil would be really interesting to see play out
He’s my choice as well.
Yeah a lot of love for Thranduril and it's hard to argue against it. Treebeards one weakness is lack of dice/banners
He was my choice too the last video, can’t wait to see him perform
In the books it is noted that small creatures in the shire are terrified of the adept throwing skills of hobbits. I'm paraphrasing because I'm tired but it's my favourite little bit of info in the books that adds so much to the movies.
Haha no way, well I guess Aaron enlisted the hobbits from the book then 😅
Would be good to see total points of enemies killed as well as just total killed. As stronger units will be worth more
True, but way too much work 😂 but I might total it all up one video so we've got an idea!
I have never seen Merry and Pippin kill so many models with rock, what a killing spree
Haha I know! It was the throwing branches and not stones that must have done it 😂
While I doubt he'll do better than Aragorn and Treebeard (and maybe not even L+G) I'd love to see Glorfindel. I'm hoping he gets a little buff in the next edition, as he's one of my favourite minor/secondary characters in the books and should be an absolute beast.
Yep, the plan is to hold off until the new edition and then get some themey pairings on the board!
Love these batreps. Simple and easy to follow and enjoy
Thank you so much!

Me too, I mean I guessed 27..! 😂 Tauriel & Thorin could smash,, but if she fluffs early it could get very hard!
Unfortunately, that just doesn’t feel thematic. It feels like yellow soup and for me I wouldn’t want that as a viewer.
Love this serie !!
Thanks - it will return with the new edition!
I’m now buying tree beard
Haha. Please let GW know I sent you 😂😎

I think we should fight them against each other to decide who gets to enter..! I'm all for these types of list!!
@@twotreesgaming So a gauntlet within a gauntlet?
Brilliant video this is my favourite arena so far love treebeard met john many times and he always says he doesnt think he did the voice justice
No way!! What a claim to fame that is!! I honestly couldn't imagine him with any other voice...
@twotreesgaming next time I see you ask me to show you I've met alot off the cast john more than any but yh he doesn't like his performance
Shall do! Lou met Sean Bean once, but I think that us done... 😅
While I know other heros will do better, I'd love to see Thorins company get a crack. Especially with Bifur specifically among the 200 points.

Not sure how Treebeard ended up in Moria, or even fit trough the door of Balin’s tomb. But hey it’s fun.
Haha, I can't explain that one and I'm not sure trees and Balrogs would mixed too well...!
Lol at 6:49. Did Lou just changed teams by putting on a red shirt because Treebeard was doing too well ;)
Haha 100%. No integrity at all... 😂
I still think Boromir with the horn of Gondor can get really far against those low courage enemies.
Agains courage 2 enemies he has a 21/36 chance to win the battle without having to fight. And with 6 might he can save himself if he has a bad fight rol.
Very true! Lacking killing power but if someone is brave enough they could go Fellowship version and pair with a Tauriel/Gimli type character..!
Sauron can top it i think!! Great video as always!
Haha, half a Sauron...!
I think a runback with Treebeard could eventually clear the whole gauntlet with better dice rolls.
Or fluff the even earlier..! 😂 I kind of agree but I don't think Merry & Pippin could shoot like this again!
@@twotreesgaming Agreed to both those points. I think if you gave him like ten tries he could get to the end, but Finnish Sniper Team Merry and Pippin is probably unique to this one.
Haha agreed!
I hope you forgot about me so I will say it as different person - this is perfect game for Gulavhar:)
Haha not allowed Fly but we could maybe clip his wings...

We need to see Bolg do this on a warg, I think he would do work
Bolg is a great shout but no mounts, flying or red allies so he'd be on foot- but he'd power up so quickly!
I would love to see Azog with his flail and heavy armor could possiblely kill lots of enemies per turn too
Yeah 100% but no terror and only one fate, massive glass cannon!
I think I need a treebeard. 😂

I cant believe how close i was with my guess in the discord 😂
I desperately wanted to say something!! 😂😂 Smashed it...

@@twotreesgaming I see I see 👍🏽
I think saruman on a horse could blast his way through dozens of enemies before he gets trapped, could even have wee thrain the broken helping him out
It's a great idea but no mounts are allowed in the arena, and that might curb his potency..!
