Sauron, the Shadow of Mordor
Step into the shadowy depths of Middle-earth with Sauron, the Dark Lord. This legendary creature epitomizes the dark allure of power and the consequences that come with it. With a mana cost of {3}{U}{B} and a formidable 7/6 body, Sauron commands the battlefield and strikes fear into the hearts of your opponents. His ward ability makes him a challenging target, compelling your foes to think twice before launching their attacks against him. Enforcing a sacrifice of a legendary artifact or creature, Sauron ensures that any attempt to remove him comes at a steep price.
Not only does Sauron bolster your board state, but he also enhances your strategy through his intriguing ability to amass Orcs whenever an opponent casts a spell. Combine him with cards like Orcish Bowmasters or Mass Manipulation, and watch as you overwhelm your opponents with an army of dark minions. When the Ring tempts you, Sauron is there to amplify your power—discard the Ring for grander schemes, and draw cards to tighten your grip on the game.
