Lots of toolbox combos + lots of kill potential. If you flop Rickon, you can get 2 Maesters out by leading with At the Gates, which also opens up Outwit. Use Luwin to search for To Be a Wolf and/or Winter is Coming events. Rickon's search kicker can work with To Be a Wolf, the Kennels, and Maege's ability for quick deployment of key cards (Bear Island + Harrenhal). Galbart Glover can also be added for extra search flexibility. Use Brienne and/or throw needle on Cat o the Canals to help push high claim challenges through. Use Edmure to recycle used events, dead characters to keep your search and draws going. The usual dire wolf synergies are here as well, including attachment Shaggy+Grey Wind. This deck could use more events, or really just one of each of Stark's good ones (No Quarter, Breaching the Wall, Die by the Sword, Nightmares, Price of War, etc), as To Be a Wolf lets you search for any one you need (or TWO if you have Rickon in play!)

I really like Rickon with Maege Mormont. It's hard to make Maege work because the location toolbox is pretty limited in stark to begin with, and she doesn't provide any tempo, since you're trading her 3 gold cost for the location. But Rickon actually turns her into a tempo machine as well as an improved toolbox.

It seems like there are a lot of cards that could add to your synergy. For instance, Galbert Glover. If you use him with to be a wolf, they have to choose events or you get to play them back and forth from your discard and stand as much of your team as you want. Widow's watch would help you find your pieces (maege, rickon, edmure when needed, brienne when needed, arya when expecting a sweeper) as well as being toolboxable by maege and repeatable by rickon. Riders of the Red Fork seems like it would fit very well.

I guess what I'm saying is that you're pretty clearly strapped for space in the deck, making tough decisions on what synergy cards to leave out. Which makes me wonder why you use 7 cards (2 brienne, 3 arya, 2 needle), that also don't fit into your direwolf sub theme, to prevent effects during challenges. Is this a metagame call? What are you so worried about?

Also, why no call of the conclave? Seems you would always want to search up your pieces or dupes of them?

Digger: Brienne & Cat+Needle are big metagame calls. I've fallen victim to too many Red Vengeances to count. I actually do have Galbart Glover in my current version, who works wonders, and the Red Forkers would be great too. Eventually I'll make a Tully variant of the no agenda pieces and see how that works, but so far this deck has performed very well. I don't use Conclave because Luwin + 3x To Be a Wolf usually does the trick. I could swap it for Valar I guess. If I need to use Valar with this deck, I'm probably not going to win anyway.
