Denethor, Ruling Steward⁣ - The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth⁣ (Uncommon)⁣ [198]

Denethor, Ruling Steward is a 2/4 Human Noble from The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth that generates 1/1 white Human Soldier tokens when a creature you control dies during your turn. Additionally, by sacrificing another creature, Denethor allows you to drain life from your opponents while gaining life yourself, making it an effective choice for decks focused on attrition and resource management. This card fits well in Aristocrat strategies that capitalise on sacrificing creatures for value, though it may struggle against decks that can easily prevent creature death. **As a Commander:** Denethor's colour identity of Orzhov WB promotes a focus on life gain and sacrifice mechanics, making him a viable commander for a deck built around those themes. His abilities synergise well with token generators and sacrifice outlets, positioning him as a strong contender for the command zone or as a valuable piece in the 99.
