Frodo's Journey Begins
Meet Frodo, Sauron's Bane, a legendary creature whose tale is woven into the fabric of both Magic and Middle-earth. This brave Halfling Citizen carries the weight of the One Ring, and with it, the power to turn the tides of battle. For just two black mana, Frodo transforms into a Halfling Scout, boasting a base power and toughness of 2/3 with the invaluable ability of lifelink. This makes him a formidable ally in any deck, allowing you to gain life while dealing damage—a perfect balance for those seeking to maintain their edge.
But Frodo's potential doesn't end there. Activate his ability when he’s a Scout, and he becomes a Halfling Rogue with a clever twist. If you dare to deal combat damage to your opponent, they risk losing the game if the Ring has tempted them four or more times. This card synergizes well with cards that manipulate life totals or force opponents into tough decisions, such as Thoughtseize or Hypnotic Specter. Whether you’re looking to build a flavorful deck or a strategic one, Frodo stands ready to lead the charge against darkness.
