Mordor Fiend

Why is this card banned in expanded? Cannot find the broken combo...

Mordor Fiend with The Dark Lord's Summons after you filtered out all your Freeps with Erkenbrand's Horn. Draw you entire draw Deck (only Shadow cards left) and then start droppin engines like Siege towers "for free". The drop some Trolls for Free (e.g. great hill troll) and after that, use Forces of Mordor to add more twilight to drop some other orc. Usually like 200 strength on the Ring-Bearer at Site 2. Now, tell me a reason why he shouldn't be banned.

Yup...he is almost aweful in any format. I remember a little tournament I had in the poorman format where people didn't feel the need to ban that particular card. I went 5-0 with it...love it.

There is a picture of a Fiend deck when I played NBarden. He put about 227 strength on my Gandalf, and I was only one card from breaking it with the Erland loop.

Don't play Open.
