The Boneway is interesting and a hard sell.  Simply because you might be waiting awhile to trigger it, only to watch it get discarded when it has 5 vengeance tokens on it.

Or having Treachery used on it.  Boneway is thematic for sure for Martell in terms of delayed effects, but when you have other players spending 2 gold on Lightbringers, Raiding Longships, or Longclaws which have an immediate effect on the board, Boneway falls short I feel.

Agreed on Boneway in general, though 1 thing I'd add is that I do think it could work in a more defensive deck like MartWatch. You can just throw out chud challenges and accrue tokens or get uo - either is nice!

Attainted otoh looks good. Being a non terminal negative attachment means there is a lot of potential.

Clash of Kings in every deck!

Boneway is tough for now, especially b/c Newly Made Lord is coming soon.  After a bit, though, the fact that losses on offense still give you a token adds up quickly enough to see this as a 1x in some Martell decks.  It isn't stellar, but it fits the delayed rush playstyle pretty well.

 

It also soaks location destruction.  If your Boneway gets discarded, it means your Sunspear/Ghaston/etc... didn't.

 

Attachment is obviously amazing.

Only half way through but I think Tommy has Jakob and Andreas mixed up.
Racist.

Yowza!

Love it when Bruno and Greg are on the cast. Just hearing those two spitball is great. Their differing view points are healthy for the game.

You are right MrDav, totally did that. My mind was in melee mode and was thinking about the game with Andreas - thanks for calling me on it! For the record, both are outstanding players...
