For all its versatility, though, {{C|Sauron}} culture does one thing badly: its [[pump]] [[event]]s are all telegraphed. They all have to [[spot]] something, be it [[burden]]s ({{Card|Enduring Evil}}), [[threat]]s ({{Card|Anguish}}), or [[Site Control|controlled sites]] ({{Card|Beaten Back}}). Often as not, they're telegraphed [[condition]]s instead, like {{Card|Flames Within}}. A minion might unexpectedly murder your [[companion]] with a card like {{Card|Mordor's Strength}}, but you can almost always look at the table and know whether or not it's possible to win any [[skirmish]] that doesn't finish prematurely. | For all its versatility, though, {{C|Sauron}} culture does one thing badly: its [[pump]] [[event]]s are all telegraphed.

{{C|Sauron}} culture was mostly retired after [[Mount Doom]]. Starting with the [[Shadows]] set, the orcs and trolls were combined with the orcs of {{C|Moria}}, {{C|Isengard}}, and {{C|Ringwraith}} cultures into one single {{C|Orc}} culture, while Shagrat and his uruk-hai underlings moved to {{C|Uruk-hai}} culture. There were only a handful of {{C|Sauron}} cards in the subsequent sets, all focused around [[Maia|Sauron himself]]: {{Card|Sauron, Dark Lord of Mordor}}, {{Card|The Mouth of Sauron, Lieutenant of Barad-dur}}, {{Card|Sceptre of the Dark Lord}}, {{Card|Throne of the Dark Lord}}, and {{Card| | {{C|Sauron}} culture was mostly retired after [[Mount Doom]].
