Hi, I'm new here and I speak french so sorry for the grammatical errors.

So, the goal is very simple:
1) Summer comes into play on turn 1 for rapid cards avantage (Meraxes, Meereen and the new plot Negotiations at the Great Sept are here for the same reason)
2) Wait for your Dragon and Daenerys (duplicate if possible with Dance with Dragons or Summoning Season for protect them for any nasty cards)... While waiting, kill all others (Strong Belwas, Maester Aemon or Viserys Targaryen by example) characters who controls if needed (never use a duplicate!)
3) Finally, have fun killing characters, discarding locations and gaining powers... Oh, and Win the game of course ;)

What are your impression? Have you some suggestions for upgrade my deck? I play this deck in melee AND joust... Are you agree?

3 restricted cards for Joust is a problem. Personally I would remove the Kings of Summer. This deck is about dragons and you don't really need the summer stuff to make them stronger. I would add in Dragon Lore to help get dragons in fast. Might think about adding Balerion the black with Dragon Lore. Maybe toss in Khal Drogo that has direct kill ability.

For my tastes when I am running dragons its about getting as many out fast, trait manipulation to make more people dragons. Thats my opinion though.
To me, it looks like the Long Summer, Crown of Meereen, and Blood of the Dragon could go since they are quite expensive. Why not try replacing them with doubles of some of your 1x events?

As Rhaegar noted, you also have 3 restricted cards for joust, which is OK for casual play but not tournament legal. Threat from the East causes you to draw 3 cards, which basically negates the advantage of Summer agenda so I'd look to cut that one and the Long Lances. Replace the Lances with another House Targaryen Loyalist (and/or Meereenese Fighting Pits) and Threat from the East with Take Them by Surprise if you like riskiness or The King's Law if you don't....it's nice to ensure going first when you need to!
My bad, I forgot to change my deck with the recent restriction list... Iwill keep King of Summer cause I really like the extra card and I have not seen many white raven in other decks (Is it just an impression?)

No problem to replace Treat from the East by Take Them by Surprise, it's a good idea... For the Lances, I lean over to another Exiled Knight cause of the deadly keyword.

Dragon Lore may be usefull but I have not maester character (except Aemon)... I don't really think this is a good addition. However, if I want to play Dragon Lore (with the addition of Balerion the Black), which maester should I choose?

Thank you for your past comments!!
Advisor to the crown is your go to. Has influence and a power icon. It can be used with at the gates. I use this for dragon lore. In my deck I have a fair chance to hit a Maester or Dragon lore on setup. With that I can get in Dragons faster. I usually don't have DL on Aemon unless I don't have a choice, but when I do that it is almost always to drop in Balerion that turn and everything not dragon gets knelt so i don't worry to much about Aemon dying for a mil claim.
Thanks everyone! I'm going to see what I will do :)
Perhaps a few Advisor to the Crown (QoD) might be in order? They give you influence which will help your deck with ambush and other cards. But they also have the "Maester" trait for when you use Dragon Lore (CbtC). I would also get Balerion the Black (RotO) to add another big dragon into play.
