#8. Sauron, the Dark Lord: Sauron's immense power comes at a cost like you know that artifact (hint: most hyped card of the season) Once cast he's incredibly difficult to remove and it can go crazy on the right control shell! He's one of those commanders you have to prepare for in the days to come! Prepare to unleash the Dark Lord upon your opponents!
#7. Borne Upon a Wind: Imagine dropping game-changing combo pieces onto the battlefield whenever you like. Borne Upon a Wind does exactly that! This versatile card is perfect for Commander or Modern, allowing you to surprise your opponents and seize control of the game.
#6. Reprieve: Reprieve, the white Remand, is a brutal card against combo decks. Bouncing uncounterable spells gives you a strategic advantage. Whether you're playing Modern or EDH without blue, Reprieve is a valuable addition to your arsenal.
#5. Samwise Gamgee: Don't underestimate Samwise Gamgee! This card's flicker, recursion, and sacrifice synergies have the potential to break the game, both in Modern and cEDH. Samwise proves that heroes can surpass all expectations.
#4. Orcish Bowmasters: Orcish Bowmasters offer card draw and damage in Modern. In Commander, they pair exceptionally well with Peer into the Abyss and wheel effects. Whether you're a competitive or casual player, Orcish Bowmasters will elevate your deck to new heights.
#3. Mirkwood Bats: Surpassing Marionette Master, Mirkwood Bats serve as an incredible win condition. With their lower mana cost, pair them with Disciple of the Vault and your favorite artifact token strategies for an unbeatable combination. There has been talks of banning this card as early as now in Commander! You can just imagine the power level on this card!

We anticipate this card to go crazy high in price as the hype seems to be real. It slides right into a Yoshimaru or a legends matter deck, No questions asked!
#1. The One Ring: At the top of our list, we have the legendary artifact, The One Ring. With its potent protection and incredible abilities, it's a must-have for any collector or player.
