A borderline unplayable rare, Mordor Enraged has little-to-no use in any competitive deck.

Most archery-based Free Peoples strategies have the wounding capability to kill exhausted minions before even reaching the skirmish phase. Better twilight generation, such as Orc Insurgent, Orc Taskmaster, or the Restricted Forces of Mordor exist in the culture.

Perhaps the most interesting utility of this card is its ability to play on Sauron, The Lord of the Rings allowing him to exert for free (giving him extra strength via his enduring keyword). This naturally makes a minion a target for directed wounding.

• Spottable condition for Orc Butcher
• Twilight generation against Archers
• Synergy with Sauron, The Lord of the Rings and other Enduring minions like Orc Slaughterer

• Hand Clog
• Useless against decks without archers
• The ridicule of an opponent upon seeing the card in play
