Bastards!!!!

1-1 in Melee, 6-1 in Joust... Bastard Theme. Only loss in Joust was to a NW/Lanni/GJ, Pillage and Recruit deck which Valared in round two, wiping out a board which was 7 strong including a fully bestowed Black Walder (which I guess I was asking for.)

The theme/Strategy: is of course Bastards, with the idea of using either Walder and other Freys and/or Ellaria and other Bastards to make sure you are getting all three challenges off. Tend to start strong, and either win mid-game or lose a little ground nid-game, but come back strong end-game.

My impression: I love themes and I know my deck build suffer a little for it. I usually do not like to have 1-offs in a deck, great when in hand, but I feel it ruins consistency. So between some 1-offs and the sticking to theme I know this can be improved so I am looking for suggestions.

Events: Other then Superior Claim and Vengeance the other events have had little to no effect on games, i.e. never in my hand at the right moment.

Plots: Just got educated on exactly what Varys's Riddle does and my recent loss has highlighted the absence of a reset card in my plots... really interested in what other people think.

Locations: Might be over the top on income cards, but I got bestowed peeps to pay for. Twins has only been out once, late game, and it was not a huge factor. My step-son plays a lot of Baratheon, hence the 1-off Throne as meta.

CHAR: Black Walder has only been fully bestowed once and then got Valared before I could kick the tires on him. The other Frey's have all performed amazingly, 3rd Challenge, 7 Str Lordling is a Champ.
I have never fully Bestowed Ellaria.

Competition: Wins against Bara-Rhyllor, Targ-Summer, Lanni-Reigns, Tyrell-Crossing-Blitz, NW-turtle, and GJ-GJ.
