This is a melee KG deck. I have had pretty great success with it and it is loads of fun. You draw into the hound often and I rarely had any issues with gold cost. There is defense for every icon and the defensive properties of the KG characters is very strong. Widow's Wail helps with draw. There is also enough control with Jaime Lannister and plots to help offensively. You should be trying to go last on every turn anyway and most oppenonts will have many kneeling characters by that time.

Let me know what you think and any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks to Hastur360 for the template for this build.

Hi, this deck looks like really nice :)
Maybe you can try to play Varys (TGM) to redirect any challenge that you can win as the defender on you :)

That is brilliant. I will definitly try this out. I have been thinking of reducing the Hound to 2 copies instead of 3 and this is the perfect solution.

Varys can only redirect to an opponent. In this deck, I would rather play Myrcella Lannister (ODG), she gives you many tricks with titles (exchange to support someone, or steal Lord Commander, for example, there are many options with her).
