	~~== Gameplay Strategy ==~~		'''Watchers of Cirith Ungol''' is one of the weakest choices for [[site]] 8 in [[King Block]], paradoxically making it one of the best choices for many decks. Its gametext is fairly useless: [[Morgul Orcs]] would rather use [[threat]]s for cards like {{Card\|Morgul Destroyer}} or {{Card\|Morgul Ambusher}}. However, this isn't much of a downside for Shadow decks don't benefit from any site 8, and what's unfavorable to all Shadow decks is favorable to your Free Peoples deck. While you'd ideally want to use a site 8 that benefits your Shadow deck, since the opponent is about to win, this is often the best alternative.
	''In this ~~section~~, ~~describe:~~''

	* ''General usage''		Every option for site 8 in King Block consumes [[threat]]s to create some benefit for the Shadow player, ranging from relatively weak [[skirmish phase\|skirmish]] [[pump]]s to very strong effects like playing minions from your discard pile. In a vacuum, Watchers of Cirith Ungol is already on the weaker end. That weak skirmish boost is very often not worth it, because decks with {{CultureIcon\|Ringwraith}} [[orc]]s often have better uses for the threats. Moreover, these decks often play [[Gollum]] and/or [[Nazgul]] as well, and can instead use very strong sites like {{Card\|Northern Ithilien}} or {{Card\|Morgulduin}}. There's just no place for this site in Morgul Orc decks.
	* ''Unorthodox or ~~subtle usage''~~
	* '~~'Common pitfalls of using~~ this ~~card''~~

	~~== Deckbuilding Strategy ==~~		What makes this site popular is the fact that all of the site 8 cards in King Block are limited to one specific culture. If you're not playing Gollum or {{C\|Sauron}}, {{C\|Raider}}, or [[Nazgul]] minions, there's no site 8 that benefits your Shadow deck with its gametext at all. As a result, unless you've [[splash]]ed Gollum or a utility Nazgûl like {{Card\|Ulaire Enquea, Lieutenant of Morgul}}, this is often your best bet in a {{C\|Dunland}}, {{C\|Isengard}}, or {{C\|Moria}} deck. It's not helping you out any, but at least it's almost certain not to help out your opponent.
	'~~'In this section~~, ~~describe:~~''

	* ''Cards and strategies this card works well with''
	* ''Cards and strategies this card works particularly well or ~~poorly against''~~
	* ''Alternate cards you might consider picking instead of this ~~one~~, ~~depending on the situation~~, ~~including alternate version of characters~~''

	= Strengths and Weaknesses =		= Strengths and Weaknesses =
	== ~~Synergizes With~~... ==		== Favorable to... ==
			* Free Peoples decks. You chiefly use this site because there's no better alternative that benefits your Shadow deck. {{C\|Dunland}}, {{C\|Isengard}}, or {{C\|Moria}} don't have any better options at site 8, unless you have a [[splash]] like [[Gollum]] or [[Nazgul]].
	* '~~'List friendly cards~~ that ~~work well with this card''~~		* This is very weakly favorable to [[Morgul Orc]] decks over a site 8 that does nothing for them, but almost all of those decks prefer {{Card\|Northern Ithilien}} or {{Card\|Morgulduin}}.

	~~== Strong Versus~~.~~.. ==~~

	* '~~'List enemy cards this card does well against''~~

	~~== Weak Versus..~~. ==

	* ''Link to rules discussions on TLHH''
