Here's the idea: AGENDA HoD Agenda chooses Fury as it's location. I added in some ∞ scrubs (Pentoshi Guildmaster & Lost Captain) to recycle back to hand to run Fury. Once I've one a challenge by 4, they are back into my hand. NOTE: Once I have the location Brightwater Keep, it will be going into this deck to boost Fury it even more. DRAW Fury, Anointed by the Mother, Ruby of R'hllor, & Val are all draw tools of this deck. Val as my restricted doesn'y bother me too much right now, knowing that Brightwater Keep can bring that card back to hand. I will play-test her out to see if I regret it. ECONOMY Narrow Sea x3 & Seat of Power x3 will do the trick with Dale & Supported by the Smith x3, but I added in two streets just to be safe. PLOTS I'm not sold on this group of 7 yet. I like Called to Court for Dale, but it may not be the best choice with all the draw this deck is forecasted to do. I toyed with the idea of running some Flood Waters (Any Phase) events & running a River plot deck. That could be fun. What do you think should go into the Plot Deck? Overall I think this can work. Asshai (12 in total) got thinned out a lot over the course of building, but I think 5 printed, & 9 possible, holy crests will suffice for the prayer events. As always, let me know what you think! Thanks! |

Draw: I'd worry that Fury AND Val would mean that you would bleed a lot of cards out of your hand. If you wait a few chapter packs from now and pick up A Song of Fire to increase your draw cap, that may be worth it... but you wouldn't be able to use the Hammer.
Characters: Who are your holy characters that you'll be kneeling every turn for your prayers? Shireen is a cheapo that you should drop in x1 at the very least. Fiery Followers is too costly in my opinion, even if you are running Bound by the Light to pull in another Asshai after they die.
Economy: I love Dale and the location recycling! I've found that he can give you strong burst reductions throughout the game if you run him with Fiery Kiss and Blackwater Bay.
Plots: if you run Willas and Litany of Light, you could run Outwit as a surprise counter to Valar.
http://www.agotcards.org/deck/v/31988 Jimm at AGOTcards has a deck called "Ours Starts the Fury" where people discuss the potential of the Fury Warship as well, although his is keyed off of cheap Asshai and uses Red Queen's Faithful to move power to someone and steal them with Seductive Promise. Most importantly, he runs the attachment The King's Ground to make Fury VIGILANT so you can trigger HoD Fury three or four times a turn.
If you haven't seen it, check it out!
Concerning bleeding cards. When Brightwater Keep x2 comes into this deck (most likely for 1 Herald of the Stag & 1 Pentoshi Guildmaster) I really don't see bleeding cards to be a problem. I'm predicting the BK will be restricted at first chance, so I want to get that Brightwater Val combo going ASAP!
As for Willas & LoL, I wanted to do that when this deck started out but man I kept losing more Asshai characters over time. If you were to rework the Asshai/holy crests in this deck, what would you do?
