I really like the idea. It’s showing the old Sauron Uruk strategy with geting bonuses for possessions.

For only 5 cost, it’s really a nice minion, and has nothing specific that requires it to be in an Uruk-hai deck.
Our time here is ending...

What did you want to see before the end?
It will be made in the Request-a-card Set #1 (name ideas also welcome Smile).

He’s good, but I still like the Sauron one better, since he’s pretty much a win/win situation.
Never kid about politicians. The more bizarre the joke, the more likely it is to come true.

Like the new Gothmog, this new Shagrat has the exact same picture as the old one. Sigh.

He’s not bad, especially in an Uruk-hai hunter deck.
All cards do what they say.

Can’t you get new pictures, D?

Anyway, a new card for the troll of Cirith Gorgor / Covetous Uruk strategy. I give it a 4.

Ah. I thought I was the only one that noticed at first.

C’mon, Decipher. How many still shots of Shagrat (and Gothmog) must you have access to, and you use the EXACT same picture as a not-that-old card?! Jeez. Bad form.

For that, I give him a 3. Woulda been a 4, because it’s a pretty good splash minion, but I can’t bring myself to do it.

Check out Lasting Alliances, The Road Ahead, and Ages of Middle-earth, three of my five dream card sets that make up Wars of the Ring. Oh, and I have a trade list now!

Also, if you're into DCs or RPGs (or even if you're not!), check out Realms of Middle-earth, the sequel to CG's "DC Adventure", Realms of the North!

Geez, if they’re going to reuse pictures, why can’t they be cool ones like Lurtz, Servant of Isengard?

But Shagrat’s still good. Fierce, Damage +1, and hunter 1 when you can spot the possessions, and if vile pit is a possession, (which it should be) then that should be easy.

Actually, I think this one might be zoomed out a little.

But yeah, I noticed the picture was pretty much the same.

One hell of a ncie uruk. Especially the damage+1 bonus is nice, since most hunters don’t have damage+1. I’m going to add him into my Uruk hunter Deck.

Cheap and quite punishing, worth a 4 because of brutishness!

Why do they reuse images when there are alternatives? Why? Brick wall

Great stats, but another image that has already been used? Sick

A 4 from me.
I had to put something here.
