Beyond the Wall, Season 2 Episode 21

Beyond the Wall Istaril Darknoj Seth L. Thrones 2.0 Spoiler AGOT FAQ Speculation Podcast AGOT

Click here for the podcast.

After last week's unfortunate hiatus, we focus on the backlog of news - from Stahleck to 2.0, listener feedback to Worlds, regionals to HBO, there's a lot to catch up on. We invite Seth L. (dare I write it, aka "little C") to help us catch up on 2.0 spoilers and share a brand new Night's Watch spoiler, and then stick around for speculation regarding the (putative) upcoming pre-Gencon FAQ. The episode closes with the usual regional round-up.

-Our exclusive spoiler, GOT_127
Errata:
-Stockton was Lanni AAA vs Lanni CoS, and the CoS took it in the end.

Correction on the Stockton regional: the Lanni A&A in the final played against Lanni CoS, not Boats. Lanni CoS pulled it out. 34 players at that regional.

I blame Tagore for the false information. 

 

Also, our new spoiler (Samwell) is up, and linked in the description.

That's awesome.  That's a pretty thematic card for him at this point I think.  Sure, there could be a lot of effects that would suit him, but for his role as a Night's Watch, that is at least suitable until they flesh out other themes and parts of the books.

If you hit TRV, Ghaston, and Quentyn, you do nothing to affect Martell Aloof. Giving them Cyvasse and Orphan back helps it (Starfall Cav are a great target for it iirc). I think most Martell NA would simply turn into Martell Aloof, using war crest viper instead of POTS.

Edit - Restricting Valar - I like the idea! Gets us all ready for 2.0, or bans the restricted list.

Implement an ongoing Fleeing to the Wall effect on all players if you want to rein in those boats!

Here is the video that "Little C" and Jon mention in the restricted list talk about Mel's Favor. ;)

Martell.AAA with Warcrest Viper is just way worse than current Quentyn.

Seth's reaction tells me that DC is preparing a Stark build of some kind for GenCon...

The new Samwell looks like a depressed muppet.

I think it is great that Sam and Jon synergize well with one another. NW is looking like an interesting faction.

Note that Pipes has clarified, we *will* be able to pick up our 2.0 cores at registration for the kingslayer tournament. Huzzah!

Lovely cast. Jon, you jinxed me by calling me the Fitch that wins. Now you have to call me "The Fitch that Wins as Much as that Other Fitch" which really doesn't hav

Targ Hollow Hill also placed well at Stockton - I took 3rd. Two close losses to CoS.

There are actually a few very fun, off-center Targ KotHH builds that work well right now.
