Middle-earth: The Lidless Eye, released in 1997, was the second basic set of the Middle-earth Collectible Card Game. The Lidless Eye adds the possibility to play as a Ringwraith of Sauron and arguably makes the game more complicated with all sorts of support and effect cards. It was later expanded by the set Against the Shadow.
The Lidless Eye was sold in starters and boosters (no cards from other sets needed to play). A booster (15 cards, 36 boosters per display) holds 1 rare, 4 uncommons, and 10 commons. A starter holds a fixed set (you can choose), an equivalent of 3 boosters, and 7 extra commons. A corresponding companion and player guide were also released.
