Saruman, KoI is the keystone minion of most uruk decks in Fellowship Block, and, due to his immense power, is [[X-list|x-listed]] in all other formats, save open. KoI’s ability to make any and all uruks fierce is extremely powerful, as uruks will go from inflicting 2 wounds to 4 wounds a turn (Assuming they win their skirmishes). He can also absorb any 3 wounds that would otherwise be dealt to uruks, thus protecting against directed archery and allowing them to safely get through the archery phase. Furthermore, he helps uruks survive skirmish wounding and makes it very difficult to double move. | Saruman, KoI is the keystone minion of most uruk decks in Fellowship Block, and, due to his immense power, is [[X-list|x-listed]] in all other formats, save open.
