Lurtz
« on: March 22, 2012, 02:26:44 AM »
Talking with the people I play with regularly (7 of us) we all came into discussion of how Lurtz, Servant of Isengard is better than any other Lurtz ever printed (atleast we think). Lurtz, Minion of the White Wizard does get an honorable mention, but the others are just bleh. When ages end came out, They basically combined all other balrogs into The Balrog, Demon of Might, so why not make an ultra badass lurtz? Atleast The new Gothmog from set 15 got a strength boost, and for a 7 cost, Lurtz either a strength boost or all three bold abilities (fierce, damage and archer) and plus some. Also I thought the Lurtz, Now Perfected should have got a Hunter boost atleast, seeing that Ugluk did.

Whats your take?

Kinda true. I like Lurtz, Halfling Hunter tho almost as much as Servant of Isengard :P

Demon of Might has a weakness tho, if the whole fellowship is under strenght 6 hes #$&*@! lol. Happened to me before.

I think really it has to do with the meta... with Fellowship  block any of them would have been a good power level, but post fellowship they didn't get stronger with pace with the rest of the cards. Oh well...
