Faramir, Prince of Ithilien
Legendary Creature — Human Noble
At the beginning of your end step, choose an opponent. At the beginning of that player's next end step, you draw a card if they didn't attack you that turn. Otherwise, create three 1/1 white Human Soldier creature tokens.

FormOverFunction It's absolutely a feel thing : ) I actually really like the art, but I don't think it's for me. Guess I was really hoping it would be the set to light my magic fire again because I really love middle earth, but I just don't see anything there. There's definitely some flavor, but a lot of the cards are just doing generic magic things rather than being a game piece that feels like a character you know.
They made sure to hit the memes, but after that it's definitely a magic set with some lord of the rings spilled on it. Like, why does everything have to draw cards? What does Faramir, Prince of Ithilien have to do with drawing cards? What does Boromir, Warden of the Tower have to do with countering spells? What does Minas Tirith the citadel, the first defense against Mordor, have to do with drawing cards and attacking creatures?
There are things that hit the lore mark, but the whole thing feels (to me at least) thrown together, and when it's trying to emulate a fiction that is so well thought out, has such depth of character and atmosphere, that's why it doesn't hit for me.
Ha, maybe I'm just stuck in, this isn't my lotr, or this isn't my magic, and I'm really sorry if I'm derailing the conversation at all. I guess I just really wish that they made one version of each character, and really made each one feel like their character. I thought the Street Fighter cards did a great job of that, and when I saw those I thought, wow universes beyond might actually be really fun sometimes, but now I see lord of the rings and it's like where's the magic, where's the world? All I see is food tokens and "if thing then draw a card".
