My first time to create a deck:

- Taking advantage of the in-house Baratheon keyword to beef-up some key cards (Core Robert, Ser Eldon Estermont etc).

- Used the knight mechanism (muster & see who is stronger) to quickly summon cards on the board.

You're running 8 cards that give influence, 2 of which get discarded to use and 3 of which are characters. See who is stronger is going to be dangerous to run and vigilant stag is possibly going to be a dead card. If you replace both of those, you could work in a better knight than Vanguard Lancer.

Melisandre is strong enough, in any of her forms, to warrant inclusion. And the watcher of the nightfire (from the new chapter pack) is pretty hoss as well.

Your curve is very high. I'd take out some of the higher curve characters and try and lower costs, otherwise your setups are going to go very poorly. And on the topic of gold costs, your gold curve for your plots isn't great, and waste their time is just awful. And just when will you ever be ahead on the board with your costs (to play Fear of Winter)? Replace both of those, and use Val as your restricted card, she's so brokenly good with TLS.
Thanks! Actually I haven't play-tested this deck and I wouldn't probably be able to (because of work). But consider that I'm running KoHH Agenda (didn't know why it didn't count). I dared to run on vigilant stag because of the passive +2 influence each round on top of the +2 initiative which would go great with the vigilant keyword: averaging 5-7 initiative on some plots - deal the first strike - stand - defend for the next challenges.

Then again it's all in my head, I wouldn't know how this would go in an actual game until I try. On the rest of what you said, I'll have to agree

I totally over looked Knight of the Hollow Hill. My apologies there. Ignore most of what I was saying, though I'd still work in Melisandre and the Watcher of Nightfire.
