Sauron, Lord of the Rings is a formidable legendary creature card with a unique set of abilities:

1. When you cast Sauron, you amass Orcs 5. This means you create an Army token with five +1/+1 counters on it. Additionally, you mill (put into the graveyard from your library) five cards, and then you return a creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield. This ability reflects Sauron's power to amass armies and his mastery over the dead.

2. Sauron has trample, making it difficult for your opponents to block his attacks effectively.

3. The card has a passive ability that triggers whenever a commander an opponent controls dies. When this happens, the Ring tempts you, which may lead to further in-game consequences or interactions based on your deck's specific rules or effects.

Sauron's high power and toughness, along with his versatile abilities, make him a formidable presence on the battlefield, embodying the might and influence of the Dark Lord from J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth.
