Where it came from
Surrounded by Orcs was released in 2023 as part of the Magic: The Gathering set 'The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth.' The card was designed to represent the narrative tension of the Fellowship's perilous journey through the Mines of Moria, mechanically reflecting the overwhelming odds faced by the characters through its board-state interaction.
The card features artwork by Wisnu Tan, who aimed to capture the claustrophobic and menacing atmosphere of the orc ambush. Within the set, the card functions as an uncommon-rarity piece that serves both as a flavorful depiction of J.R.R. Tolkien’s source material and as a functional tool for players looking to manage creature density on the battlefield.
