This was the deck I brought to our store championship (5/14/2016). I went 3-1 in swiss, then won it in the cut (top 4). played Baratheon Fealty. Only had a chance to test the deck once before the tournament, but it worked out well in the end.

MVP's:

Littlefinger (extra econ in set-up most of the time. I could afford everything I needed to, hardly used him for his draws, but I put him in just for the econ).

Melisandre and the R'hllor suite (kneel everything, fiery followers stand for dom, etc.)

Stannis Baratheon and Robert Baratheon (no explanation needed.)

Vanguard Lancer (Amazing for keeping tempo. If my opponent was starting to swing ahead of me in power, I could even it back out. Stopped two wins this way, I'd definitely put a third in).

LVP's:

Rattleshirt's Raiders (didn't need their ability in any of my games, the mil icon helped a bit in one game, but that's it)

Maester Cressen (I dropped a Little Bird against Stark, but that's it. Not good).

Ours is the Fury (way too situational, and I was almost never in a position to use it.)

Plot Choices:

A Noble Cause, Summons, Filthy Accusations x2 (No explanation needed)

Calling the Banners (for the econ, but honestly, I could probably drop this. My econ game was strong without it)

Building Orders (to fetch Red Keep and Painted Table. and sometimes The Iron Throne. If I drop the Milk's for Nightmares, I'd drop this with them).

Wildfire Assault (If I get overwhelmed, this brings me back. Easier to control a small board if Stannis isn't locking it down, and it acts as a third Filthy if I have Shireen out).

Tourney Report:

Round 1, Lannister Fealty (WIN):
He got Tywin out early and triple-duped him, but he was on his knees the whole game. I was able to control the game most of the time, and he kept doing military challenges with jumpers (Burned Men mostly), which I could either oppose, or I didn't mind losing a chud. When he could, he did intrigue challenges with Cersei, but I had Red Keep early, so anything hand presence I lost I drew back. He wasn't focusing on power, and I was.

Round 2, Greyjoy Banner of the Dragon (LOSE): He devastated me early with Seastone Chair. I couldn't get past his 2 Raiding Longships, and I couldn't kneel enough to save myself.

Round 3, Greyjoy Lord of the Crossing (WIN): He opened as bad as possible, and didn't draw any key characters the whole game. I drew exactly what I needed.

Round 4, Stark Lord of the Crossing (WIN): His key characters were on their knees most of the game. I was able to oppose and often win intrigue and military challenges, and I avoided doing military challenges, so he wouldn't get Rob's ability, so I kept winning dominance and power challenges.

Cut to top: Top 4, Targaryen Banner of the Lion (WIN): I set up dominance early. He kept killing my characters, but I was generating power quicker than him. We went to time, and I had a lot more power thanks to Vanguard Lancers.

Top 2, Greyjoy Banner of the Dragon (WIN): Same guy I played in Round 2. I had answers to everything, and I kept Balon knelt the whole game. He played Wildfire, but I threw down a ton of characters afterward (to make sure his challenges weren't unopposed.) He took out Robert about half way through, but it wasn't enough to stop me. I top decked Melisandre, and the game was mine from there.

Here's what I would change: -Remove Rattleshirts Raiders and Maester Cressen.

-Remove Ours is the Fury

-Add a third Milk of the Poppy (or remove them and play 3 Nightmares)

-Possibly add a second Shireen (that kneel was really good when I got it, and makes Wildfire more live).

-Add a third Vanguard Lancer for sure. Truly amazing card.

-Add a second Lightbringer

-Maybe bump Even-Handed Justice to 3. I liked it better than Consolidation, because I almost always had a chud on board.

I had a great time! Shout out to the amazing Lord Commander (TO), Blake!
