I've been trying to make Martell/Rose happen for a while now to varying degrees of success. I love the efficiency of re-using Arianne over an over to get solid 4-5 cost bodies on the table. With the introduction of Knight of Summer, I think a Martell/Rose deck could be very competitive.

First, you have a toolbox with Building Orders. Building orders allows you to grab the icon strippers, Ghaston, and Milk (as always) but now with the added targets of Venomous Blade from the new pack and Mare in Heat, given we have a small knight theme. Combining icon removal with Mare in Heat makes it difficult for your opponent to successfully make challenges.

This deck can also put on some heavy military pressure. House Florent Knight and Venomous Blade cut through claim soak, Ghaston clears an attacker, and Olenna's informant can be popped in to give a second military challenge if needed.

When I've made this deck in the past, it had a hard time closing out games, but Knight of Summer and Knights of the Sun give some much needed renown, and you chud knights can join in on the fun with A Tourney for the King.

Some numbers could use tweaking, but I feel like this deck could solidly dominate the challenges phase and come out ahead.
