Council of Elrond

Awaken the Earth's Fire V:
Hazard permanent-event
Giants may be keyed to Redhorn Gate, High Pass, Gap of Isen, Angmar, Gundabad, Grey Mountain Narrows, Withered Heath, Numeriador, and Iron Hills. If Doors of Night is in play, all Giant attacks have 6 body. Discard this card if a Giant keyed to one of the regions above is defeated. You may discard this card during opponent's movement/hazard phase (not counting against the hazard limit) to take Earth-tremors, The Black Enemy's Wrath or Cruel Caradhras from your discard pile (or sideboard if Doors of Night is in play) to your hand. Cannot be duplicated.

Awesome card, brilliant combination of all needed things for a giants strategy

yeah! pretty neat!

Yes nice card, very useful. I would take out Drums however, I understand you want to give it more play, but it's crappy so we have to redo it anyway, and it doesn't fit in thematically. Why not Reach of Ulmo in stead?

Useful is good but not spectacular though, some additional new giant ability might be nice (if not on this card).

I've taken to putting Drums in my anti-minion hazard portions; a lot of minion decks spend their time in the under-deeps or the Misty Mountains.

Yes, I had considered Reach of Ulmo too, but as Ulmo is the God of the seas and this is a water hazard, I hesitated. Maybe it would be better as a alternative effect of my virtual Noose of the Sea?

i would remove drums too... it just doesn't fit thematically... For some more ideas about giants and earth attacks check here

Drums removed.
