Legendary Creature — Halfling Scout
Partner with Sam, Loyal Attendant Vigilance Whenever Frodo attacks, if you gained 3 or more life this turn, the Ring tempts you. Then if Frodo is your Ring-bearer and the Ring has tempted you two or more times this game, draw a card.
“Lifegain-powered Ring temptation deck that draws cards and swarms tokens.”
Frodo is all about a unique lifegain-and-temptation loop that rewards you for gaining life while attacking. Your core gameplan is to gain 3+ life per turn cycle, then swing with Frodo to trigger the Ring temptation mechanic. Once the Ring has tempted you twice, you unlock card draw every time Frodo attacks after gaining life, creating a steady value engine. The deck wins by going wide with tokens, grinding out incremental advantages, or pivoting to commander damage once Frodo becomes your Ring-bearer with anthem effects.
Build around small lifegain payoffs like Soul Warden, Zuran Orb, and Essence Warden to hit the 3-life threshold consistently. Pair these with regular attacks using tokens or small creatures to keep the pressure on while you're fueling the Ring. Since you're in Orzhov (white-black), you have access to sacrifice outlets, aristocrats, and creature tokens to create a swarm that generates life as it attacks. The partnership mechanic with Sam gives you a backup plan or additional recursion value.

Skip expensive dual lands—basics and budget fixers like Shineshadow Vampire or Caves of Chaos work fine. Replace pricey tutors with efficient repeatable lifegain like Lone Missionary or Guttural Response.
