My plan is to make my opponents run out of steam (valar, wildfire assault, storm the gate) while I abbuse of recursion (See who is stronger, Robert, Mel's Scheme, Asshai Initiate, Fiery Kiss...) to sustain my card advantage. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. |

And I would recommend removing Shadow Killer. There is an errata on Knights of the Hollow Hill that the agenda is considered to be 5 cards at command. There would be very few situations that an enemy would have a bigger command than you.
Also have you considered the new Edmure Tully? He's a lord and could trigger Royal Entourage. And a knight, so you can use See who is stronger on him. His ability is another option you can use to return cards from the dead pile. Granted it returns them back into the library. Still a valid option to use.
How about using The Bastard Boy's instead of the The Fox's Teeth? There are very few decks that sports alot of House Bolton characters. You can easily trigger his ability to increase claim, just by declaring him as a attacker. You can turn 1 claim plot into 2, possibly 3 if you have Marya. And turning valar morghulis turn into a 1 claim
Yeah, totally forgot about the KotHH errata. Gonna remove the Shadow Killer. I'll probably replace it with 1 x Edmure (that is, when I have access to that card, and assuming the Stark player in my group won't go 3 x Edmure).
I see your point about The Bastard Boy's, but I'm really a big fan of Fox's Teeth in melee. I will give it a thought. Maybe replace some other card.
Thanks a lot! Any other suggestions are welcome.
Blackwater Bay + Fiery Kiss = 1 guy back from your dead pile every turn as long as you can win a power challenge. Definitely worth it.
It also gives you the option to use your fiery kiss on the discard mechanics of fury & ashemark knight early in the game when very few characters are in the dead pile. Then return them back late or mid game when characters are starting to pile up on the dead pile. And also don't have to worry being discarded by the use of desperate measure or asshai initiate
Then if you feel that you don't have enough armies with intrigue icon. You can use Fleet from the Arbor. At 7 str, it would take 2-3 characters to defend against it. Opponent will think twice on defending against since it has a deadly trait. It's either they lose a character or goes unopposed. Which works well with Melisandre ability.
