1. HoD is for Longship Grief. Allows you to either defend once and stay standing or attack and stay standing; plenty of reason you should always be wining imitative, so you should always get the one free challenge.

2. Deepwood Motte doesn't get a lot of use, but if used correctly w/ Corpse Lake & the various other discard effects in this deck, (Motley Crewman and Ironfleet Raiders are annoying) unless you've got OVERWHELMING LOCATION HATE, you should be able to effectively mill your opponent while claiming massive amounts of power. Add in Ours for the Taking in order to replicate the effect several times in one turn, and hopefully getting to play Raiding Fleet as well, you can easily deck your opponent rather quickly.

3. The key here really seems to be when to valar. I've noticed that if I valar too early/too late I can totally wreck my strategy. Ideally, you'll discard at least half or more of your opponent's deck, and then valar any good uniques that they have in play.

I really would appreciate some feedback on this, as it's become my main deck of late. What I really feel needs serious improvement is my plot cards, but I'm not sure where to go with it.

From a noob, how would you adjust this to play melee mill?
Thanks
What's the reason for [Building season] in your plot deck? Would you consider [City of Spiders] to bring out another army or [Take them by suprise] as a high gold and initiative plot?

I did actually switch that with (Take Them By Suprise&#91) and it was a great idea.

Honestly not sure what I'd do to make this a melee deck; probably just switch up the plot cards more.
