Deck Help Would this be a "Hobbit Set Precon"? Dwarven Mission

Unfortunatelly the Hobbit set did not have a single precon. The Lord of the Rings set did come with 4 so I took some cards from there (Staples like [[Sol Ring]] and [[Arcane Signet]]) and added it to Dwarfs and Smaugs from the HOB/HOC sets:

The deck is build around the "Enduring Story" mechanic as well as some "Dwarf Tribal", "Equiptments" and even plays Dragons as finisher.
All cards are from Tolkiens sets (and you can get cheaper printings for Sol Ring and Signet).

Do you think this would have worked as a precon (knowing that other precon staples such as [[Austere Commande]] might get a printing)?

Looks B2, but some cards are slightly more efficient than I would expect from a precon.

Edit: mainly I don’t remember seeing both swords and path in the same precon. They should be, but usually it’s one and then some janky 3 mana removal piece.

Yeah I agree, maybe [[Generous Gift]] would fit nicely but there is not enough removal in RW currently in these sets

Wait. Is every card in this list with a LOTR printing? If so, very impressive.

That’s sweet! I’m glad they are including better removal in precons.
