Beyond the Wall Istaril Darknoj Thesaurusrex Podcast First Snow of Winter Deckbuild Regionals Game of Thrones
Regional season begins! We go over some news and tourney results, and then bring on Sean E (thesaurusrex) to help us build a Greyjoy deck that's well suited to the new First Snow of Winter meta. We fit in a tip of the week, and then some actual closing comments. Despite Istaril's best efforts, Darknoj still manages to squeeze in a few Mountain jokes... *sigh*

Errata:
None (yet).

Chuck beats Greg every time.
How can you even think that!
He's 76. Against this.
These ridiculous match ups assume the participants are the most competitive versions of themselves. Occasionally they consist of the fictitious characters portrayed. So, Mountain Vs Commando Chuck, Texas Ranger Chuck, Martial Arts Chuck, or Dodgeball Chuck. Commando Chuck has machine guns, grenade launchers, rockets, and possibly a flamethrower. Martial Chuck is basically the Red Viper with no need for a spear or grandstanding. Texas Ranger Chuck gets stronger based on the atrocities committed by his quarry. Dodgeball Chuck is assumed to have all the powers listed via internet fact lists, given these abilities from a combination of Cult of Personality and access to the sum akashic record of humanity. But, this is the real world. Septuagenarian vs a walking muscle in his prime. Chuck still has an edge. It's called the Total Gym.
This is the latest Aaron Glazer project that Jon has been roped into, which was so wonderfully advertised by Alex and Jon this week.
lol
So the most competitive version is undead super G....don't mess around how is chuck gone kill something that is already dead....
Ok. Frankenstein Bobby Strong wins against current Chuck Norris. Commando Chuck still has heavy weapons, Martial Chuck may have an issue with an 8 ft light tank, so he'd need to use a weapon this time, Texas Ranger Chuck is still fueled by the power of justice and a Dodge Ram, and Dodgeball Chuck just kills the undead knight back to life since Dodgeball Chuck = godmode Chuck.
I feel that next week, I'll be pestering Jon about his + Ironswimsuit's new podcast.
One day Aaron and I will make you guys appreciate the value of Rattleshirt's Raiders. Not putting them in this deck is mental.
I tried them out in my GJ Crossing for a bit but found them difficult to afford - as a four cost neutral character. Both in testing and in tournament play I found x2-3 We Do Not Sow to be enough attachment control.
Most other decks, I'd throw them in. In my opinion, Greyjoy doesn't need the help with attachment removal.
I'm WAY behind on podcasts, and not all the way through this one yet, but....
Regarding Dany and the King trait, maybe the 1st Ed Brienne that was released near the end was kind of a test to see if the "this character is considered to have the X trait" mechanic was broken. It wasn't, so maybe we will get a Dany that is considered to be a King, but has the printed Queen trait? Maybe a stretch, but it might work.
I played the deck today in melee (with joust decks), lost a Great Kraken on turn 1 to a NML, pulled off a support of the people to go fetch another... and then remembered we only had one. Sigh. Raiding longships not very good in melee
.
Managed to convincingly come back from a disastrous Tickler (on someone that other GJ player) nuking my Euron, and then Winterfell locked me at 14 power by chewing up a number of UO triggers, keeping poor Asha down.
In joust, the deck was pitted against a Stark deck (Fealty) and a screen of Drowned Men managed to keep me from the high pressure of Ice (after Ice!), and won convincingly on T6
