Yay, synergy between cultures! Dancing

This new Grishnakh has good stats, and offers a nice bonus for his fellow Orc Orcs while you can spot an Uruk-hai minion. Just in case you can’t, he’ll find one for you! A very efficient card overall.

Grishnakh, Treacherous Captain is probably best used in a deck of mostly Orcs, with Ugluk, Ugly Fellow added as a splash.

Powerful. And he’s only 3 when played with a Orc Spear.

However, if he gets killed off right away, his beutiful hunter + text is gone. So, load him up with Bladed Gauntlets, and he’s a lurker, and can make other minions strength +2.

Or you can give him the new riding gear.

I take it they will be combo’ing hunters and hunters. His text could add up quick and with that ability pure gold. But bladed gauntlets as NBarden pointed out Bladed gauntlets would be useful to make him lurker.

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you. Razz

Grishnakh wouldn’t be bad splashed into an Uruk-hai hunter deck. He can easily be 15 strength for 4 twilight, and he lets you play an Uruk-hai hunter from your draw deck.

Yay for Shadow multi-cultural synergy!

Very nice. With Orc Spear, that’s a strength 13 minion...add in Rider’s Gear, and that’s strength 15. And when you can spot Ugluk, he’s hunter 4! Now that’s a nasty minion...and for only 5! (not including Ugluk’s cost)
