Wow!!!

This makes a great combo with Orkish Traveler and Threatening Warg, especially if you have multiple copies of him.

And then his assignment ability is pretty good, especially since it can work against some of the stronger RBs (Gimli, Isildur, Gandalf, & Boromir).

Orkish Cavalry definitely gets a 5 from me.

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you. Razz

He’s nice, but his self-exerting text hurts. It runs him out of vitality to wound companions. Still, vs an exhausted Durin III, you get one use out of him. I give him a 5, however, because of his card drawing. And if this Orc strategy revolves around twilight tokens, maybe they’ll be some way to generate twilight.

Hmm... how so? It’s not like he’ll be needing his vitality for anything else, since he doesn’t have Scouting Orc’s ability.

Holy hand extension, Batman! Shocked

That’s just an amazing card. Shadow-phase card-drawing could prove very nice for the new Orc warg decktype, relying as it does on putting two-card combos together. And the assignment ability will wreak havoc when combined with cards like Scouting Orc and Relentless Warg.

And they complained about the bustedness of moria’s hand extension and twilight adding. As soon as I saw this card, particularly in conjunction with the twilight adding cards, I instantly thought of old school moria. I guess D has the philosophy of "why invent new busted strategies, when they can re-invent old busted strategies!"

"and then X-list them accordingly" yeah that is getting kinda annoying.

Mount him up and corrupt Isildur accordingly with Goblin Hordes. Or exhaust the fellowship. I could see him going in a retribution style deck.

Awesome new warg card; it draws more cards, always a good thing
and it also has a pretty good assignment ability. I give it a 5.
