Every adventure begins with the first step. For many new fans of The Lord of the Rings LCG, the Revised Core Set is that first step. But what about the next step? Or, beyond that, what if your friend is the one with the Revised Core Set, and you want a deck to call your very own? Not to worry, because there won't just be one deck for you to choose from - there will be four!

Each starter deck is built around a different theme and playstyle, and they all can provide the perfect jumping-off point for players who want to try the game with a friend or dabble in deckbuilding beyond what is available in the Revised Core Set.

The Dwarves of Durin starter deck focuses on "delving" through your deck and drawing on the strength of Dwarven kinship. In addition to having a fully pre-built player deck that is usable from the moment you open the box, this product also includes multiple additional cards that can be used to enhance any decks you build yourself. Whether you plan to use this deck yourself or lend it to a friend who's trying the game for the first time, there is no doubt that you will want to add this starter deck to your collection!

Note: For longtime fans of The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game, if you already own all of the game's expansions, you will not find any new cards in any of the starter decks. However, you may find it helpful to have one of these decks on hand when you introduce a friend to the game, since these decks have been tailor-made for new players.

This 82-card Starter Deck contains:

• A ready-to-play starter deck featuring the Dwarves of Middle-earth. Take advantage of their hearty fortitude in battle and find new resources by mining your deck!

• The Dwarven heroes Bifur, Ori, and Dáin Ironfoot.

• Additional Dwarf-themed cards that can be used to augment and customize any deck.


Ages: 14+
Players: 1-2
Game Length: 30-90 minutes


This is not a stand-alone game. A copy of the Core Set (Original or Revised) is required to play.

Great cards!

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

This starter deck provides a lot of good cards for deck building, in addition to a strong pre-made deck and extra cards to customize it for different quests. A must have for beginners or those missing some of the Khazad-dum or Hobbit cards.

Excellent option for Dwarf enthusiasts

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

This deck is solid. If you enjoy dwarves, you cannot go wrong with this one. I personally have not used it very much, but a friend of mine who regularly plays this game with me uses it almost exclusively. Every time we play, his board-state is just absolutely massive. There are many put-into-play effects, and only a few unique allies, so you can amass a small army of dwarves (which means you have options for chump-blockers too). Also, with Dain Ironfoot's (Leadership Hero) effect, all dwarves get increased Will, so this deck can quest something massive. The price point for what you get is very fair too.

Great if you don't like or want to deckbuild

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

I'm not completely new to this game but I live a busy life and don't always have time to deck-build. This pre-made deck makes it easier. I will probably grab a few of the other starter decks, as well. They are also great to intorouce new players to the game.

Great deck.

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

These starter decks are a great place to start but are made up of reprints so if you have the older stuff you don’t need these

Although there is significant overlap in the player cards between this set and those included in the Khazad-dum Expansion, this is a great deck for anyone who wants to explore the possibilities of dwarf decks beyond the core set, and also includes three heroes not found in Khazad-dum, including the very powerful King Dain. And with all the dwarf heroes you'll have, the extra cards can be useful in secondary dwarf decks too!

High-quality cards, as usual from FFG. The prebuilt deck is fun to play, and the additional cards offer a good amount of room for customization.

This deck is well-constructed

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

This deck will help with some of the tougher quests. It is well-constructed and who doesn't like dwarves.

Decent Cards

Average rating of 4 out of 5 stars

This deck has some good cards, and the idea of an all dwarf deck looks good on paper. I just haven’t been able to make it work quite right yet. Giving it another few goes before breaking up the deck into other decks.

Great source of hard to find cards

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

Had a lot of cards I was missing from hard to find/out of print packs and expansions. Fun dwarf deck.
