MESBG TIER LIST: Evil LOTR Faction. 

Haven’t watched yet, but looking forward to Sharkey’s Rogues being S tier (S for Sharkey)

Man, I looooove me a noobs tier list. Never have I clicked a video so quick

51:00 Spitting truth here man! It would break the meta wide open if they were all green allies, but for the flavor I would accept all the armies that fought on the Pelenor Fields as green allies

Hey, I was the Dale player 😂 and it was a hilarious game that ended in a draw. The scenario was assassination and we both broke each other. The most fun game I’ve had so far. 😂

52:00 Far Harad half-trolls mentioned at the pelennor

I have a friend who placed 1st in a 20ish person tourney with Sharkeys Rogues. The key game was against Smaug. The Smaug played didn't realize it was impossible for him to win

I think low A is whwre easterlings belong. Although i suppose it depends what criteria youre rating the faction on. If it's only the most competitive, maximised list, then i can see why you've put it there, even then, I've personally never struggled agaisnt the Dragon Emperor

So that Ruffians image was from my event, The Battle of Brittain last week over at Atomic Cards in Swindon, and for added context it was Assassination between bog standard Ruffians led by Lotho vs Defenders of Erebor. Ended up being a draw XD.

Surprised you didn’t add LL into the video would be cool to see how you guys would rate them

My IsenKhand list would give ya guys a run for its money 😉 lot more fun A tier

Ok Easterlings are S in the LL but the factions should be ranked on themselves being a normal faction. A tier.

I think top of A would have been fine for easterlings, as a balance between the S tier legion and the army, which is rarely played outside the legion. Curious about Harad (yet to listen). They appear in a lot of top placings, but always with Mordor and always with suladan. I guess It's kinda hard to rate armies that appear great on paper, but make results only in specific context

that blue warg tho For angmar so true... wish they would nerf the ""spirits"" but improve everything else

Some of those alliances are pretty wild - Umbar are only convenient allies with Mordor because they got ambushed on their way to fight *in the army of Mordor?* Meanwhile Isengard can't ally with their neighbours Angmar or Mirkwood, but can be convenient allies with Khand or Far Harad because "hey, you never know!"

“Unless you’re playing in the GBHL meta where there’s sweet f all terrain” You guys are great but man you Aussies have a real chip on your shoulders 😂

hell yeah!!! pumped for this one. i predict angmar on top😅 edit: only B??? do you think the faq about in the ways for flying monsters hurt angmar a lot?

Feels bad sitting here painting up my camelboyz...

where would you place dunland on this list? also missing goblin town? is that a faction or just a LL?

I'm really torn between starting with Isengard or starting with Mordor. Any advise?

Yes! Milk it more!!! 😀 Legendary Legions could be easily 6 Videos more 😀! -> New year of video content planned ^^

Khand! Khand! Khand!

Umm.... ... the Khand chariots (warrior) have to choose between bow or Axe. So you can totally ally yellow a king with like 4 chariots and 3 horsemen.

MESBG TIER LIST: Evil LOTR Faction. (Wrong) MESBG TIER LIST: Evil LOTR Factions. (Correct)

Only one i really disagree with is Khand. Think at 500pts and below it slaps. Should be a B with big boy Sauron who’s only good at high points

But whats the best Good faction?!!!

Just letting you know that you are totally wrong with Harad without the betrayer. I became 1-3 place on a couple of tournament with Harad, and never took the betrayer. Most of the time it's Suladan, Haradrim King on Horse with warspear and then Raza or Taskmaster for the Heros. Then a bunch of Abrahkan Guard and a couple of Watchers of Karna (against terror), with Warriors with Bow and Spear behind them. Also some Serpend Riders and Raiders with Bow (no warspear!) Is very good. You get just more models that way/the warrior models are better on their own. Also the betrayer is a shit magic caster. He can like only use 4-5 will for magic,rest for his poison ruel.Don't know why you always say that Harad has notable magic.

What new supplement are they talking about? Am I just blind, I don't think I heard about this....

Lets me honest the alliance matrix was made up by throwing darts at a dart board. Makes no sense at all for both sides.

Stopped watching when you said glorfindel is sh**
