'''Uruk-hai''' (both singular and plural, and also just called '''Uruks''') are a new breed of orcs that appear in the Third Age, as tall and strong and well-armed as [[men]]. In this game, uruks are a [[Shadow Alignment|Shadow-Aligned]] [[race]], only appearing as [[minion]]s. Uruk minions generally have middling to high [[strength]], and often have '''[[Fierce]]''' or '''[[Damage]] +1''', representing their ferocity in battle. They also often have the '''[[Tracker]]''' or '''[[Hunter]]''' keywords. Most Uruk decks are [[beatdown]] decks.
Uruk-hai are a new breed of orcs that appear in the Third Age. In this game, uruks are a [[Shadow Alignment|Shadow-Aligned]] [[race]], and thus only appear as [[minion]]s. They are separate from [[Orc|orc]]s, and thus are not affected by cards that affect orcs, like {{Card|Sting}}.


For the first nine sets, all Uruk-hai are {{C|Isengard}} minions. For these sets, "Uruks" almost always refers to an {{Card|Isengard}} Shadow deck, possibly also including [[Saruman]] and/or [[Grima]], but probably not including any of the {{C|Isengard}} [[orc]] or [[men]] minions. Complicating things somewhat, the [[Mount Doom]] set introduces {{C|Sauron}}-culture uruks, but most of them see little play except for {{Card|Shagrat, Captain of Cirith Ungol}}.
For the first nine sets, all Uruk-hai are {{C|Isengard}} minions, although Isengard culture also includes orcs and [[Saruman]]. As a result, most Uruk-hai shadow decks are focused on Isengard culture; the two are more or less synonymous for the first ten sets. Complicating things somewhat, the [[Mount Doom]] set introduces {{C|Sauron}}-culture uruks, but most of them see little play except for {{Card|Shagrat, Captain of Cirith Ungol}}.


The next set, [[Shadows]], reorganizes the Shadow cultures. In that set and all subsequent sets, all Uruk-hai race minions are {{C|Uruk-hai}} culture, and, except for a few versions of [[Saruman]], all {{C|Uruk-hai}} culture minions are also Uruk-hai race.
The next set, [[Shadows]], reorganizes the Shadow cultures. In that set and all subsequent sets, all Uruk-hai minions are {{C|Uruk-hai}} culture.
 
Cards which specify "Uruk-hai" like {{Card|Savagery to Match Their Numbers}} can affect any minion with the Uruk-hai race, regardless of culture. However, cards like {{Card|Brutality}} that specifically mention the {{CultureIcon|Uruk-hai}} culture icon can only affect cards with the new culture introduced in Shadows.
 
While ''Lord of the Rings'' establishes that Uruk-hai are a new breed of orcs, in this game Uruk-hai are considered a separate race from [[Orc|orc]]s. Thus, they are not affected by cards that affect orcs, like {{Card|Sting}}.
