The best leader for Skellige and also the core of the Lockdown strategy when playing Skellige.

You have all the Biting Frosts and Skellige Storms, then fill the remainder of the deck with Olaf, Cerys and her girl squad, Light Longships, Warships, Hjalmar, Villentrentenmerth (to answer a Crone or Vampire line), Clan Dimun Pirate (to answer Milva, Black Infantry Archers, Crinfrid Reavers, and Catapults), and of course Kambi and the Cow (for staying power and also to bait the enemy into overextending). I generally avoid the berserkers and shrooms and simply pack horns instead because they're more reliable a boost in my view.

Word of advice when playing this though - never drop a Pirate or Scorch or Villentrentenmerth onto a locked down board. You'll only hurt yourself.
