Like Savagery to Match Their Numbers, Uruk Fighter is an example of a card that punishes opponents for having 5 companions, rather than the usual 6. Fierce uruks are often dangerous, as they can wreak havoc on ill-prepared fellowships. Uruk Fighter is also relatively cheap for an uruk. Its only downside is its lack of strength, which can make it hard for it to win skirmishes in the first place. This is exacerbated in Fellowship Block by the large amounts of possessions and other permanents that can be played on companions without consequence. Nevertheless, in an uruk deck with good support for its minions, Uruk Fighter can be a solid choice of minion.
