Hazard Long-Event

Environment. Any non-Hero company with a Free-Domain or Border-Land in its site path must return to its site of origin unless it contains a Ranger. In addition, if Doors of Night is in play, each Minion site with a Free-Domain or Border-Land in its site path is tapped.

Bad choice of cards, since its a hogcard. I would choose non-hog for this one.

Hog card?

Ringbearer means a Balrog rare.
I like the card, there is no equivalent to Foul Fumes. Could be useful.
How about using The Border Watch? I know it's a creature, but a hardly ever played creature.

If I'm running Men vs. minion, Border Watch always goes in. 5 strikes at 7 is pretty good.

My reasons for choosing a Balrog card were as follows:

1) The non-virtual version doesn't see much play anyway; and
2) This is a "niche" use card; you're going to use it in an anti-minion roadblock deck, but there's no guarantee that a given minion deck will be wandering around places affected by it, so having three isn't as vital.

exactly, when you play men vs. minion. :wink: (even so it's mostly cannonfodder, and a ranked assassin is still way better) Sun Shone sees more play vs. minion (Balrog) in my book, it's quite usefull.
But anyway, many people will be glad to have even 1 copy, I'd refrain from using Balrog rares just to keep Virtuals available for everyone, maybe it's a farfetched dream, but who knows, one day...really didn't like the fact they used Terror Heralds Doom.
