I don't love Valar in this Rush-y of a deck. Basically, if your rush didn't win, you'll lose 95% of the time anyway. Try out Wildfire instead maybe? And the new Bara location? Name escapes, but yeah, add that. Finally, I'd add some cheaper knights for set up and definitely Seat of Power x3.
I would use some of the slots you're using for duplicates for some cheaper knights so this improves both your set-up and stops dead draws(hedge knight is a good one), as pulse glazer says add seat of power, probably street of steel, maybe even street of silk and flea bottom.

I would add some other characters namely:

stannis baratheon (vigilant,stealth,renown)
Bastard of nightsong (fills an intrigue hole)
Ser Davos seaworth (WLL) stealth and free dupe
Laughing storm (deadly and some hand protection)
Brienne of tarth ( stupid good)
Vanguard lancer (solid cost effective 2 drop)



Yeah, you have too much duplicates, and expensive characters, your setup will be bad and in a rush deck this is fatal. try some more draw with
Renly Baratheon (TRS) and Power struggle Plots that will help you. And always remember, make your deck always thinking that you have 2 turns to win, no more. When you go rush you go with all (for example, don't play with
Highgarden (TftH) cause it's expensive and you need that gold to get down all the possible characters or locations that assure you superiority during the first 2 turns. And don't go valar, just make sure u will survive valar using dupes,
Loyal Guard (WotN) or
Bodyguard (Core) ;)
Lightbringer (Core) is also an option but I personally don't like it because 2 gold is such a penalty and remember that attachements can be easily discarded (not that easily with the lastest FAQ so now it's more likely an option) And, as you have been told Seat of Power (WotN) is a MUST.

Ok. I'll take the Valar out. Is the new location you're referring to Black Betha or the one that comes out Friday?

Which Brienne are you referring to? I'm already running Vanguard Lancer. Right now I only have two core sets, Lords of Winter, Kings of the Storm, Tourney for the Hand, Reach of the Kraken, and The Great Fleet. Can you guys think of anything from those I may want to add?
Basically you want the brienne that shuts down your opponent from taking triggered effects

Thanks. I had her for a while but her effect didn't seem to come into play much.

I suggest that u may add Renly from KoTS in order to lower the cost of your caracters!Plus u could use the accepted destiny attachment and perhaphs give the lightbringer to Robert in order to delay his death more or the death of your knights!In any case think wisely before u discard a duplicate of your knights, u need them...
