Since randomly discarding cards from an opponent's deck is unreliable unless a player's whole deck is built around it, Orthanc Warrior is usually a better choice for a deck, as having 2 vitality makes it more resistant to archery and wounding capabilities. Its strength is decent for a [2] cost minion, making Orthanc Warrior a reasonable choice of small minion for a player's deck.<br /> <br /> = Strengths and Weaknesses =<br /> <br /> === Strong Versus... ===<br /> <br /> * More resilient than the similar Uruk Soldier<br /> * Effective against choke strategies, and unlikely to clog a player's hand<br /> <br /> === Weak Versus... ===<br /> <br /> * Doomed to lose against consistently strong characters<br /> * May be too cheap against decks that flood the twilight pool, leaving the Shadow Player unable to use all the twilight.</div>
