no it can't but it never pretended to be a solo game.

this game is supposed to be a 1 player game. Solo game design sucks ball. I mean who the hell did they use for beta testing this game in solo?

after 3 solo game I could already tell you sites that are following each other screw the solo game. a simple fix would be a rule in solo that no two site of the same type can be on the table.

How does that makes sense to you. You are at Dol Guldur. Exploring it and the idiot same card is drawn again. SUCKS. You are dead. Only 3 hero. Not enough questing. Not enough resources. 1 hero battling defending a creature. And if you don't defend. you have 50% chance to die since shadow card often have deadly effects when attack in undefended.

I have played the EASIEST quest and the game is either too easy or too hard. Complete balance screw up. I need to vent because I would punch the solo designer in the face right now. They stole my money!

I'm pretty sure the solo could be balanced properly but the fact it isn't is a testament to the greediness and incompetence of the editor.

I'm playing MECCG pro level and that's what I call a strategic card game. A MtG player would watch us playing and wonder. But he went back to his mind numbing game because MECCG requires financial and intellectual commitment.


ok from these comments i gather that your opinion is based on your lack of experience in LOTR:LCG, because i use to have the same rant as you and i stow away LOTR:LCG for 1 year after feeling its horribly unbalanced. But after replaying it again i got the gist of it and now i love this game even though im still nub at deckbuilding..

before you state that this game is unsoloable, please kindly review these videos on how solo decks can devastate even the harsest scenario : Massing of Osgiliath :

Having a different opinion is great but at least you should get some facts right so your opinion is not skewed by prejudice and wrong facts
