Grey Wind

Robb Stark (LoW) and use the GW effect in the usual way,is that right?
Thx in advance for any reply
You sure can. They work great as a combo.
If an opponent controls Greywind the character, and you control Greywind the attachment (or vice versa), that is totally fine.
Situation in which both players control Greywind the character (or attachment) is also regular.
(3.29) Unique Cards and Changing Control
You may not play, put into play, or take control of a unique card already in play that you own or control (except for putting a duplicate on
a card that you own and control), or that is in your dead pile.
Thus you cannot take control of a unique character that you already have in play. You cannot play a unique card if your opponent has taken control of another copy of that unique card that you own.
Duplicates can only be played or put into play on cards you own and control.
I need a question answered please...A player has used Grey Wind's ability on a character with 0 strength, can I add +2 strength to the character to save him? In this game, Grey Wind is not attached to Robb Stark, but attached to Jon Snow. (This could cost me a win!) Thank-you! :-)
You can boost him BEFORE your oppontent triggers Grey Wind, but at the moment Grey Wind is triggered, it is too late to avoid death by increasing the target's STR.
Pay extra attention to the order of action windows and alternating between players, since it matters w/ Grey Wind.
For Example:
- You have Grey Wind on Sansa
- I play Viserys (kneel him to discard an attachment)
- At this point, you get the next action and can kill Viserys before I can use him
In this game, each effect resolves completely before the next one can be triggered (with the exception of effects that specifically use the words "save" or "cancel"). There are no "stacks" of effects wherein the last effect triggered resolves before earlier effects.
This is the hardest thing for M:tG players to get used to when they pick up AGoT. (And Yu-Gi-Oh players for that matter, but we see a lot fewer of those.)
So no, you cannot make a character "retroactively ineligible" as a target for Grey Wind. You can only anticipate which characters are in danger and proactively protect them by bumping up their STR before Grey Wind is triggered. The only way to stop the target character from being killed is with an effect that specifically says, "Save a character from being killed."
Although people commonly announce what characters they will declare stealth on when they first kneel their attackers, technically the declaration of stealth targets is the first step of the framework action for declaring defenders.
This means that you have to wait for the chance to use player actions in between the Player 1 kneeling attacker and Player 2 kneeling defenders before you can use Grey Wind. However, stealth doesn't take effect until after that window, so using Grey Wind or any other effect to kill an attacking character with stealth you prevent Player 1 from bypassing a character with stealth.
