Either you played it normally or you could have it come into play with a +1/+1 counter and it gained "must attack each turn if able." My one suggestion was to shift the negative from the red "must attack" to the black "can't block." I felt that it would be better flavor, would play better, and would create fewer bad feelings for the players (as a rule, players dislike when their creatures are forced to do dumb things that get them killed)
The Strategy Your gameplan with this deck is to ramp up to Sauron, the Dark Lord while controlling the board and amassing your Orc Army as large as you can
On top of that, it grows with +1/+1 counters whenever any player sacrifices a creature, so it scales fast in sacrifice-heavy games
