Questions That Need Answering (1R81)

As a card from the Fellowship of the Ring set, Data:Ottar, Man of Laketown (1R80) was primarily gained through [standard booster packs | as a card in the XXX starter deck | direct purchase from the XXX product | explanation of promotional distribution], or sometimes as [a random rare in a starter deck]. It is a [brief description of usage], so its demand is [enormous | relatively high | average | relatively low | nonexistent].


  • As a Rare, Man of Laketown has a 1 in 121 (~0.8%) chance of being present in any FotR booster pack, and a 3 in 121 (~2%) chance of being in any FotR starter deck.
  • Foil versions of Movie-era Rare cards were randomly selected to be inserted into booster packs at a rate of 1 out of 26 packs (~3.8% of packs). This means any given FotR booster pack had a 1 in 3,146 (~0.038%) chance of containing a foil Man of Laketown.
  • The Fellowship of the Ring was printed (both standard and foil) in 7 languages other than English: German, French, Italian, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese, and Chinese.

Card Image Identifier Notes
English • Nonfoil
English • Nonfoil The complaint is straightforward: it permits lots of card draw (and card cycling, even if that goes unmentioned) when Gandalf is not supposed to. He's even worse with Elrond, Lord of Rivendell, whose Home 3 healing ensures that Ottar + Elrond permit a 4 card draw / 3 card cycle every Fellowship phase, which makes most other methods pale in comparison.

Our errata is equally straightforward: knock Ottar down to essentially an out-of-phase reconcile once per turn. Decipher Notes:

This card makes large-scale card draw too accessible to all Free Peoples strategies. It requires a very low cultural commitment to a culture that is not supposed to be the strongest at Fellowship phase card draw.
