Having tried many different ways to build Sauron I've landed at Reanimation as being particularly fun and effective. Sauron's tempt-discard-draw4 ability supports a general reanimation theme to put some big creatures - such as dragons or the Balrog - into the graveyard before putting them onto the battlefield. Where possible I've tried to include some relevant Lord of the Rings cards, for example, the 9 x Nazgul help by activating tempt triggers for Sauron to put cards in the graveyard ready to be reanimated to the battlefield in a cheaper, more mana-effective manner.

Any suggestions or comments gratefully received else hope you enjoy the deck.
