Bolg actually does about as much epic dueling as any character in the Hobbit trilogy of films. I only really got this deck where I wanted it in late 2022 when I shared it with the lively group on the Epic Duels Discord.
BOLG
Bolg
17 HP
Blue Deck
2 Orcs
4 HP Each
Weak Melee Minor Deck
Bolg – 12 Talent Cards
3x Intidimation
A3. If a defense card is played other than a Power Combat card, it is discarded and the defender takes full damage. Power combat cards are not affected.
3x Brute Strength
A3*. *Add 1 to the attack value for each Orc that has been destroyed. Playing this card does not count as an action.
2x Merciless
A6. Destroy one of your Orcs.
2x Determination
Bolg and each of his Orcs may move up to 4 spaces each. Draw a card for each Orc that has been destroyed.
2x Age of the Orc
Bolg heals 3 points of damage. Draw a card for each Orc that has been destroyed.
Notes: His offense is a bit wanting, but he has great staying power and can bring it once his Orcs are killed off.
Looks cool, my concern though would be that as an opponent I would never attack his weak minors, keeping him weak as well. Do I miss something or is this really the big weak spot of the deck?
Maybe you’re right, but not killing any minors is a disadvantage and at some point it gets hard to avoid.
