Yay! More reviews! 
Cards edited slightly.
Well folks, looks like we’ve come to the end of another one of my sets. I’ve got just one card slot left, and I’ve decided to use it on The Mouth of Sauron.
 •The Mouth of Sauron, Black NumenoreanNOLINK 
Minion • Man
Strength: 9
Vitality: 3
Site Number: 5
When you play The Mouth of Sauron, if you have initiative, you may exert him to draw 2 cards.
Shadow: Exert The Mouth of Sauron and discard 4 cards from hand to take a Shadow card into hand from your discard pile.
This would of course be a good splash. Does he seem too powerful?

Heh. I have a version with the same subtitle. 
I think he’s balanced, yes. And I love the idea. Any Shadow card, no questions asked. Good, good stuff.  |

SoP and AP, I think that one exertion and 3 cards (or 2 cards, like SoP suggests) is just way too powerful. You can grab back any Shadow card, and since the ability is in the Shadow phase you can then play it or save it for later.
I’ll consider dropping it to 2 exertions and discarding 2 cards from hand.
Thanks,

Alright, I took your guys advice and changed it up.
I also decided that since I kinda underused my new keyword, Intimidating, I’ll increase the amount of cards in the set and make 2 more cards.
  •Sauron, Master of Treachery
Minion • Maia
Strength: 24
Vitality: 5
Site Number: 6
Damage +1. Fierce. Enduring. Intimidating.
When you play Sauron, discard each minion. Then you may remove from the game X minions from your discard pile to make Sauron’s twilight cost -X.
Other minions may not be played.
(kinda like a revamped The Balrog, Durin’s Bane)
 •Lurtz, Isengard Scout 
Minion • Uruk-hai
Strength: 13
Vitality: 3
Site Number: 5
Hunter 2. Fierce.
While you can spot another hunter, Lurtz is damage +1.
While you can spot a companion who has resistance 2 or less (or 4 hunters), Lurtz is intimidating.
(finally a Lurtz that fits into a Hunter Uruk deck!)

I like it, 4 keywords and a cool way to reduce cost. awesome!

i like this one too, i might make it: While you can spot a companion who has resistance 2 or less (or while you can spot 3 hunter companions) , Lurtz is intimidating.
