For the Battle of Helm's Deep and Ents of Fangorn releases, Decipher altered how the 3 rares in each starter deck were chosen. Instead of selecting random rares for each starter deck, they preselected three specific rare cards that actually fit the culture and strategy of the deck they were a part of, and gave the selected cards an alternate image. As a result, these rares aren't actually "rare", since every starter deck included them.
