I just happened upon 2 Rise of Saruman Uruk Rampage Starters and each had the same 3 rares in it. They were: Eowyn Northwoman, White Hand Legion, and Narsil, Forged by Telchar. Were the rares fixed for the starters in this set, or was I extremely unlucky? |

well, first, I wouldn’t call it unlucky to face 2 Narsils, very useful card. Second, they are not fixed so in a way you were unlucky I guess... |

I had the same problem with 2 Ents of Fangorn starters. They might be fixed if they came in the same "box-thingy", but otherwise I’d say no. |

I believe that there might be a pattern to putting the random rares in the starters. I bought a starter deck box on Bloodlines and pulled several doubles of the random rares. Not complaining since I did pull to Ordance Grunts and all, but the others were pretty crappy like Storied Homestead. Maybe they put only certain rares in each deck that goes into a case. Who really knows but it seems odd that the 3 posters here managed to get doubles from starters that apparently seemed to come from the same box/case,

Decipher did do fixed rares for two sets - Battle of Helm’s Deep and Ents of Fangorn. The rares in those starters were alternate image versions of rares found in packs. |
When we do it in Iraq, it's called progress. When we do it here in the US, it's called socialism.

Not fixed, but there might be clumping issues. Can’t say much personally about LotR (besides getting Troll’s Keyward and Beauty Is Fading in a starter and then in consecutive packs), but in Star Trek I could sometimes predict what commons/uncommons I was going to get based on the first couple cards I saw in a pack. |
