It’s an event, if you haven’t noticed.
That’s not what I meant. You could have 2 in hand, 2 in your discard pile, and 2 Underlings in hand. Play the Underlings, retrieve the other 2 copies of Frenzy of Arrows, and then play all 4 copies. All for only   twilight!  |

AP, I was more referring to this post than to yours.
But yeah, with underlings... follower decks die. May as well attach your followers to companions and kill them off with the archery... get rid of the blasted things! |

Since mine was directly above yours, I assumed that you were talking to me.
No big deal, though. I can’t believe this card is only an uncommon! |

It’s a neat card, but what does it have to do with Saruman? There are no  Sarumans yet. |
| All cards do what they say. |

| Saruman, Servant of Sauron, he’s a follower, so automatic 2 archery. |

I don’t like to throw my opinion around, but this card seems really broken. If I have two followers I’m taking six archery! Or if two of this event are played, twelve!
I can’t absorb twelve archery without looking like a sieve, even on a good day.
Looks like I can dust off my shield of boromir and all those Elven Cloaks I never used. |

I agree with yerkamig. This is overpowered. All this time we’ve been waiting for a good way to counter followers nicely and instead we don’t get a counter but an annihilation. This isn’t just a tax its a bankruptcy! This will kill decks dead. Escalation is making cards stupid. Plus 2 if you can spot a follower would be bad enough especially as you can abuse it with saruman sos for 4 archery. But for EACH follower? Come on. A few underlings and leave the rest of the pool for this and you have an abusive deck. I hate cards which stop you from playing an entire type of deck. Cards should punish certain types and have advantages over others but not that completely decimate a fellowship because they chose to put a few of a type of card in. D has over done it a bit, and an uncommon??? Ouch. Their arrows will blot out the sun and we will fight in the shade!.... Except you will die in the shade.
Definately a 5 as extremely playable.. |

| I can see this card getting R-listed fairly quickly, but then one is all you need in these evil decks. |

Man.... Orcs are seriously getting way overpowered now. They basically are able to make every decktype that is now defunct. There’s like how many types of orc decks? 9? 10?
And why is this an Uncommon? I think D has been smoking too much on Nat’l Smoke Weed day. |
