This dude is just amazing againts Nazgul Of Dol Guldur, but otherways this card isn´t so good as Gandalf.

4/5 stars i think

Why against NoDG? The text clearly reads "choose a non-unique enemy..."

It's not unique. Look:

Wow, you're right. I would never have thought... I mean, I never realized NoDG isn't a unique enemy!

One use I could see for Saruman is he could help with the pesky Gladden Marshlands in Nightmare Journey Along the Anduin. Play Saruman with a Sneak Attack to cancel the threat from Gladden Marshlands, then travel to it and get it out of the staging area for next round.

He is underused and underrated. Play with Galadriel, you get 3 quests points and... 5 points of attack!!

.......Play Saruman with a Sneak Attack to cancel the threat from Gladden Marshlands, then travel to it and get it out of the staging area for next round.

...but does he "doom 3" everytime I use it with the Sneak?

Are there any good combos with this guy ?
