A joint venture between house Greyjoy and Targaryen. Bases of the idea is getting the most out of challenges with Balon Greyjoy, Asha Greyjoy and Theon Greyjoy, with using stealth, Seal of the Hand and Magister Illyrio. Use Rise of the Kraken as game ender.

I am open for comments, inprovements and discussion. It’s my first decklist I published on ThronesDB.

@Denooijer

GJ and Targa should work well together, just some ideas for improvement: - Watch your economy. I would include at least two copies of The Roseroad and even an additional plot with higher income (Calm Over Westeros, A Noble Cause or Supporting the Faith - actually all of these have very low ini so this decision might be tough). You will need the gold to pay for Magister Illyrio’s effect! - I would cut back on the Targa reducers and include 2 or 3 copies of The Unsullied, they are a great combo with Balon Greyjoy for unopposed challenges. - Include at last 1 copy (and search with Support of the People) of Great Kraken for stealth for Balon Greyjoy and the draw power (this is even more important as you also aren’t playing Counting Coppers, no cards in your hand might be losing the game) - If you rely on Magister Illyrio you should add one more copy to be sure to get him - although the effect might be a bit expensive for GJ decks

Some more really nice cards to think of: - Throwing Axe to scare your opponent from blocking with valuable chars - Iron Fleet Scout to push Balon Greyjoy for his effect and everyone else for Put to the Sword or Superior Claim - We Do Not Sow to get rid of annoying locations (The Red Keep, Highgarden, The Wall, …)

Just some ideas, discussion appreciated! Keep on bulding and publishing ;)

@arthagon Thank you for the feedback. Some of the suggestions to add where cut from the deck to hit 60 cards.

Maybe I should remove the following: 1 Heads on Spikes 1 Drogon 1 Viserion 1 Rhaegal 1 Targaryen Loyalist 1 The Seastone Chair 1 Support of the People

To add: 1 A Noble Cause 1 Magister Illyrio 1 Great Kraken 2 Unsullied 2 The Roseroad

And then just add 2x Throwing Axe and accept a deck of 62?

Youd dont need support of the people but the 3 roseroad 3 kingsroad is autoinclude

Also to provide a counterpoint, there’s no way I’d cut the Targ reducers down at all. Part of the best thing about bannering is being able to include the 6 1-drop characters to help with your setups and provide cheap claim soak. I haven’t looked at this yet enough to make other suggestions, but absolutely keep the 6 reducers in.

Thanks. Maybe I will rebuild from the start. I feel that 6 reduce characters should be included and also accept it wouldn’t hurt to have 1 or 2 roseroad to keep the gold rolling.

Next to that the key characters are Asha Greyjoy and Balon Greyjoy. Supported by Seal of the Hand and Magister Illyrio
