What is it with horns and being game-breaking?
Erkenbrand's Horn has been altered to only work with Rohan followers, which means no more draining your deck completely dry of Free Peoples cards (realistically, no more than 9 followers now assuming healing is provided). The ability to offensively discard Saruman has also been removed as excessive.
And to top it all off, it's been given a twilight cost. Why there have been so many broken Free Peoples cards produced that happened to also cost 0 is a mystery we may never unravel.
This change more than any of the others on this list will be a death knell for a certain deck. Our sincerest apologies if that was your favorite deck, but we hope you can understand why the rest of us bid "good riddance".
(Also, we have taken the liberty of finally fixing the wording to eliminate the redundant "Reshuffle" and "from play" clauses.)
