Strategy

Moria Scout is played in most Moria decks, as he essentially plays for a net zero twilight when not roaming and when spotting an Elf. With the popularity of the "Super Friends" Fellowship of Legolas, Greenleaf (1R50) , Arwen, Daughter of Elrond (1R30) , and Aragorn, as well as the powerful Elven support characters like Elrond, Galadriel, Rúmil, Elven Protector (1U57) , and Orophin, Lorien Bowmen , Moria Scout is often a boon to Moria decks. Additionally, Moria Scout is one of a short list of Moria Orcs with the ability to exert for cards such as Threat of the Unknown (1C197) or Moria Axe (1R190) .

While the Shadow player is limited to 4 copies of Moria Scout in your deck, it is fairly easy to play the minion from discard using Host of Thousands (1C187) , They Are Coming (1C196) , The Balrog, Flame of Udun (2R52) , or Host of Moria, Legion of the Underdeeps (9R+41) .

With its latent twilight generation, Moria Scout, like Goblin Runner (1U178) can be splashed fairly easily into any deck. Both minions remain a popular additions to most swarm archetypes including Isengard or Sauron swarm, or even a swarm that is simply a compilation of small, cheap minions (potentially with anti-Frodo support like Saruman's Snows (1C138) ).
