About this card
Mana cost: {1}{U}{B}{R}
Type: Legendary Creature — Avatar Wizard
Whenever you cast a noncreature spell, amass Orcs X, where X is that spell's mana value. (Put X +1/+1 counters on an Army you control. It's also an Orc. If you don't control an Army, create a 0/0 black Orc Army creature token first.) Goblins and Orcs you control have ward {2}.
"Over all his works a dark smoke hung and wrapped itself about the sides of Orthanc."

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Saruman, the White Hand is real?
Saruman, the White Hand is not on our list of commonly-counterfeited cards, but counterfeits exist across every set. Check the print quality and cardstock (real cards have a distinctive blue inner core visible from the edge), the rosette pattern on the back, the security stamp on planeswalker / mythic cards from recent sets, and confirm the collector number and set code match the official Scryfall record. For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.
