Card type: Instant
Card Text:
Target Creature Gets +1/ +0 and Gains First Strike Until End of Turn. If it's a goblin or orc, it also gains haste until end of turn.

There was a horn-blast and a rush of feet, and orcs one after another Leaped Into the Chamber.
Artist: Warren Mahy

Card Strengths and Weaknesses:

• Versatility: This instant can be used both defensively and offensively. Giving a Creature First Strike Can Make It A Powerful Blocker or Attacker for a Turn.

• Low Cost: The card only costs {r}, making it easy to keep up mana for it.

• Tribal Synergy: The additional effect for goblins and orcs make this a particularly good fit for tribal decks focusing on those creature types.

• Limited impact: While the Effects are useful, they aren't game-changing. The +1/ +0 boost is relatively minor, as is the first strike in most cases.

Deck Utility:

• Aggro decks: This Card Could Easily Fit Into An Aggressive Strategy, Allowing for More Profitable Attacks or Unexpected Blocks.

• Goblin/ORC Tribal: The extra benefit for goblins and orcs make this a compelling choice for tribal decks focused on those creatures.

• Combat Trick: Can be used as a surprise fobat to turn the tides in your favor.

• Flavor: Like many of the cards you've presented, this card is thematically rich, resonating well with the lord of the rings universe.

"Rush the Room" is a flexible and low-cost instant that can sacrifice a slight edge in combat. It's Privicarly Strong In Decks that feature goblins or orcs, where the additional haste can make a big differentence. The card would like likely see most of its play in aggressive decks looking for cheap and effective combat tricks.
