| '''Moria''' is the abandoned dwarven underground city of Khazad-dûm, now dominated by stunted [[Orc|goblin]]s and [[Balrog|a nameless fear]]. In this game, it is a [[Shadow Alignment|Shadow]] [[culture]] that focuses on [[swarming]] the opponent with many small [[orc]] minions, plus the occasional larger minion that dwells in Moria, such as the {{Card|Cave Troll of Moria, Scourge of the Black Pit}} and the [[Balrog]]. {{C|Moria}} was one of the first [[culture]]s introduced to this game, and unlike most of the original cultures, it's always been focused tightly on one strategy: using the faction's [[Hand Extension|hand extension]] and [[Recursion|recursion]] tools to set up an [[Engine|engine]] to play many more minions than you'd otherwise be able to play at once.

| Part of why {{C|Moria}} is so tightly focused is because the bulk of the culture's cards came out in [[Fellowship Block]]. Only a handful of new cards came out for the culture after that, most of them focused on the [[Balrog]]. The [[Shadows]] set basically retired {{C|Moria}} as part of its culture reorganization, merging most of it into {{C|Orc}} culture.

| {{C|Moria}} is one of the premiere Shadow [[side]]s of [[Fellowship Block]], although historically it fell off due to [[X-List|bans]], [[Power Creep|power creep]], [[meta]] changes, and a lack of new cards. On [[GEMP]] in 2021, it remains reasonably popular in later formats where Fellowship Block cards are allowed (save possibly [[Expanded (Format)|Expanded]]), because of its strong [[cycling]].

| Every deck focused on chiefly {{C|Moria}} culture uses a variation of this engine. It even appears in most hybrid decks, like [[Moria Navy]]. (The main exception is [[Stupid Swarm]], which is a [[rainbow]] strategy with too few {{C|Moria}} minions to make this work.)
