Control Deck that wins games whilst losing every challenge

Plays like a nights watch deck, feels like a Baratheon deck and flies under the Martell banner punishing people for winning challenges

Won 3 lost 1 at a local store tournament (could not draw any econ in that last game) and couple of tense moments were poor play on my part almost threw it but I managed to recover

Basic Principles are get Gendry out and then focus on ensuring you win dominance over making any challenge , between Feast for Crows , Chamber , Gendry and Boneway you can get a max potential of 8 power for winning a single dominance (you average 3 a round and sometimes gain the opportunity to sneak in an unopposed challenge when Nymeria/Caleotte is out)

To assist in this you have the full Baratheon Kneeling banner package, Healing expertise combined with my 3 maesters kept Gendry alive more times than I expected, Obviously the great Ghaston grey and the mighty Areo Hotah!

Remember if Gendry has no power and your opponent wins the Dominance you can sacrifice any Bastard and this deck is crammed full of them as claim soak

Motley shocked me how effective it can be when place on somebody who likes to make multiple challenges, Ser Jaimie, or that Randy Randyl costing an intrigue claim just to use at any time is brutal.

Deck can struggle during first snow and if you see a rush deck try and keep their hand low with Motley and Bastard Daughters (try to get a few intrigue challenges through and save your vengeance for them as well) won a VERY close game against a stark power rush crossing deck this way

Love to hear back what you guys think

Some questions: 1 don't you feel the need for +1 throne, +1 boneway 2 what about here to serve instead of confiscation 3 nymerya instead of 3 arianne? 4 what about 2 eyes of the viper instead of 2 judgements 5 doesn't having only 2 attachments get them confiscated immediately?

@RDude - Awesome questions, this is the deck how I took it to the tournament after quickly putting it together and yes I really wish I had that 3rd Iron Throne, Also dropping an Arianne (who was useful) for Nymeria would be far more effective

Here to serve was in it before confiscation and it was pretty good but in my practice games I was struggling against seal of the hand and made the last minute change without regret

Motley is a nuisance more than a vital part of the deck and people didn't seem to prioritise getting rid of it over setting up their board, its easy to get rid of but it's only a 1 gold investment for instant benefit

His Viper eyes is a great card but its basically seen in flames with a different condition and no kneel, judgement managed to prevent a winning superior claim and a put to the sword and is a very useful card in preventing them dirty treacherous lanni's

As much as boneway was more of a bonus than a vital card I think your right and making room for a second would have added to the pressure the deck could put out, was just unsure at the time of so many locations but yes definitely +1 throne and probably +1 boneway
