Strategy[edit]

This card is a very useful tool against any Orcs. Although it has a 2 Twilight cost, the special ability, damage bonus, and strength bonus more than make up for it; the additional damage bonus makes him take any vitality 3 minion he defeats out of the road for a safer double move. However, a downside to this card is it can only be played on Gimli.

Strengths and Weaknesses[edit]

Strong Versus...[edit]

  • Goblin Swarm, Orc Wounding
  • Minions with 3 vitality points (or more if you you increase his damage with cards like Lord of Moria, Cleaving Blow or Flurry of Blows)

Weak Versus...[edit]

  • Possession Removal
  • Troop of Uruk-Hai
