The more cultural requirements, the stronger the enforcement is (and theoretically, the stronger or more thematic the effect you purchase as a result). Denethor, Lord of Minas Tirith (pictured at the right) is an example of a card with very strong cultural enforcement. He has to spot two other {{C|Gondor}} [[Man|men]] just to be played, and once on the table his ability doesn't even work except with {{C|Gondor}} culture cards.

In contrast, {{Card|Legolas, Greenleaf}} has very weak cultural enforcement. [[Splash]] him into any Free Peoples deck and he just does his own thing, cheerfully [[direct wounding|wounding and killing]] any troublesome minions without needing any other {{C|Elven}} cards to function. He can certainly fit into an {{C|Elven}} deck, especially one that can heal him after he's [[exert]]ed with cards like {{Card|Elrond, Herald to Gil-Galad}} or {{Card|Shadow Between}}, but he fits just as well into a [[rainbow]] deck like [[Rainbow Wounding]]. | In contrast, {{Card|Legolas, Greenleaf}} has very weak cultural enforcement.
