And yet another non-unique Orc condition. And this one shuts down defender +1 defense against swarms for no cost, and doesn’t even have any option to discard itself. Another reason to X the Smith. The second ability isn’t that bad though; its pretty nice, I guess. Not as good as, say, Suffered much loss, but its optional if you don’t want the FP to get battleground bonuses like retrieving conditions with The Terror of his coming.

If it were just the 2nd ability, I’d say 4. As it is, it gets 5 for being potentially broken.
Never kid about politicians. The more bizarre the joke, the more likely it is to come true.

Ok ill stick my neck out first and say Broken. For gods sake Decipher. Who plays defender plus 1.... Gondor.... Who has no condition removal.... Gondor. Grrrr Evil or Very Mad Im sick of this orc culture breaking every deck i have. I play my anarion deck against this and im screwed, and it 2 orcs to make it a battleground... EVERY site?? Without discard... This sucks. Im giving it a 5 as its ultra playable for all those people who like to abuse the Orc decks. Swarm just got bulletproofed. O and its not unique. Stupid card. Stupid stupid stupid. Not talking

I refuse to vote on cards like this anymore, so I’ll just give it a...uh...-2. Razz

You don’t need to spot anything for defender bonus’s to not count

OMG, you’re right. Actually, THIS is the first card I’m sure is completly broken. I still think some like Gothmog need actual testing, but this...

I didn’t even notice. Shocked
Wow. That is so far beyond broken....
Gothmog I honestly didn’t think was that bad, Frenzy of Arrows was broken...
But this is rediculous.

And there are still anywhere between 8 and 11 more Orc cards to go... imagine when you say "and I thought Destroyers and Usurpers was broken!".

When I came to Abraham I let him live just a moment longer. When I came to Moses I saved his life more than once. But the salmon... I regret to say I had a hand in its death.

Who am I?

Yeah, even Frenzy of Arrows cost 2 needs to spot an Orc minion.

yeah this is just going to go in every deck. Heck throw it in Evil Men Swarms since there’s no cultural enforcement for the Defender Bonus. Very broken.
