Category: | Stark |
Deck Name: | The Plot Thickens |
Deck Contents: | Total Cards (60) House (1) House Stark (Core) x1 Agenda (1) The Maester's Path (GotC) x1 Plot (7) Bungled Orders (OSaS) x1 The Art of Seduction (LotR) x1 The Tides of War (RoW) x1 Winter Festival (WotN) x1 At the Gates (GotC) x1 A Time for Ravens (ACoS) x1 Regroup (KotStorm) x1 Character (26) Bran Stark (Core) x3 Meera Reed (TftH) x1 Arya Stark (CoS) x1 Catelyn Stark (AToT) x1 Ranger of Winter (TWoW) x2 Maester Vyman (TWoW) x1 Maester Luwin (FtC) x1 Winterfell Reserves (Core) x3 Jojen Reed (LoW) x3 Ser Kyle Condon (APS) x2 Advisor to the Crown (QoD) x1 Oldtown Raven (TIoR) x3 Grand Maester Pycelle (TRS) x1 Galbart Glover (CbtC) x1 Raff the Sweetling (Core) x2 Location (18) Frostfang Peaks (TWH) x3 The Inn of the Kneeling Man (FtC) x3 Harrenhal (ODG) x1 Northern Fiefdoms (LoW) x3 Karhold Rookery (CbtC) x2 Lord Eddard's Chambers (Core) x1 Vale Rookery (TRS) x3 Sunset Sea (LotR) x2 Attachment (13) Crown of Winter (LoW) x3 Brass Link (HtS) x3 Tin Link (CbtC) x2 White Raven (TWoW) x1 Summer Tax (ASoS) x3 Formal Petition (PotS) x1 Event (3) Citadel Law (MotA) x3 So the idea of the deck is to cycle your plot deck quite a bit. During this you will also be milling your opponent's deck and also gaining power through limited challenges and Jojen Reed (who will also be helping to mill the opponent's deck with the help of Raff the Sweetling and Winterfell Reserves). Ser Kyle and Arya are thrown into help take the hits for military challenges you may lose. Galbart is to help team up with Luwin once you start using your Citadel Laws. Formal Petition and Summer Tax helps you win with less power obviously. This deck is currently untested but I plan on doing so of course. |

Though now I am starting with a brass, tin and collar under the agenda.
With the plot acceleration I was looking to abuse the river plots a bit. During my game I was changing out my plots 2 to 3 times in a turn. This was allowing quite a bit of when revealed high jinx. The river plots double even that. I was also going to put Reed's Crannogmen (RotO) in the deck to ready Bran Stark (Core) an additional time through the use of it leaving play by using At the Palace of Sorrows (VM).
I will look at the City but I currently play them in my Baratheon Brotherhood and not many of them would be highly tool box enough for this deck I don't think. Maybe Secrets, Sin, Soldiers, and Spies. Hmmm.
One combo I was looking to try was first turn Bran Stark (Core) and The Inn of the Kneeling Man (FtC) with Feast or Famine (KotStorm) as first chosen plot then first Bran use for Under the Bridge of Dream (VD) then use Inn on Bran and third plot selection would be At the Gates (GotC). Giving me 11 gold first turn and a free Maester. That is just one combo idea.
Satin (WLL)
be a nicer option here? in addition, Galbart doesn't work with Luwin :/
and the Inn is cool with Bran, but at first you have to make it summer/winter to use the inn.
I already had some thoughts on such a deck, too
I would play
Marya Seaworth (KotStorm)
to stand Bran, you can reduce her cost with the Narrow Sea
And instead of At the Gates, I wanted to cylce the plots, to use Manning the City Walls more often.
My Plot choices would be:
Manning the City Walls (CD)
A Time for Ravens (ACoS)
Winter Festival (WotN)
The Art of Seduction (LotR)
Shores of Ny Sar (VM)
On Dagger Lake (VD)
and last but not least
Alliance (PotS)
The Maester's Path (GotC) x1
Plot (7)
Above the Sorrows (VM) x1
At the Palace of Sorrows (VM) x1
Before the Black Walls (VD) x1
Shores of Ny Sar (VM) x1
At the Gates (GotC) x1
Under the Bridge of Dream (VD) x1
Feast or Famine (KotStorm) x1
Character (29)
Bran Stark (Core) x3
Maester Vyman (TWoW) x1
Maester Luwin (FtC) x1
Winterfell Reserves (Core) x3
Jojen Reed (LoW) x3
Ser Kyle Condon (APS) x2
Advisor to the Crown (QoD) x3
Oldtown Raven (TIoR) x1
Maester Aemon (Core) x1
Eddard Stark (LoW) x1
Hodor (Core) x1
Reed's Crannogmen (RotO) x3
Catelyn Stark (LoW) x1
Follower of the Many-Faced God (CD) x3
Satin (WLL) x1
Marya Seaworth (KotStorm) x1
Location (18)
Frostfang Peaks (TWH) x3
The Inn of the Kneeling Man (FtC) x2
Harrenhal (ODG) x1
Northern Fiefdoms (LoW) x3
Lord Eddard's Chambers (Core) x1
Vale Rookery (TRS) x2
Narrow Sea (Core) x3
Godswood (Core) x2
Great Keep (Core) x1
Event (3)
Citadel Law (MotA) x3
Attachment (10)
Brass Link (HtS) x3
White Raven (TWoW) x3
Bodyguard (Core) x2
Apprentice Collar (GotC) x2
Thinking about removing a Brass Link, Apprentice Collar and the Oldtown Raven for x3 Flood Waters.
I don't own the new River plot Crossing the Ruby Ford (RotK) yet but might be something to look at. Also On Dagger Lake (VD) might be a good replacement for Before the Black Walls (VD), still haven't had a lot of success with that river plot.
