An aggressive reset deck that a combination of denial, kill, choke and reset.

Ideally you want to keep your tempo up whilst simultaneously denying your opponent theirs. Varys if your opponent out paces you, and build back up faster with draw, choke and econ tricks.

The contingent of this deck are there for aggro (in the form of Asha Greyjoy, Fishwhiskers and Theon Greyjoy), and denial from both Captain's Daughter and the Lordsport Shipwright.

Captain's Daughter is a fantastic little card for denial decks. Ideally you will trigger her at the first good 3-4 cost character your opponent plays. A savvy opponent will attempt to play around her, but at some point or another your going to hit something good with her. She is SUCH a tempo hit for your opponent - they lose both their gold and 50% of their draw next round.

Lordsport Shipwright - kneel The Kingsroad if you go first. Ghaston Grey is also a great target.

Old Forest Hunter is my favourite NW card at the minute. They are just awesome. Every phase, you can discard 1 card for 1 gold. These guys give a massively needed boost your economy and allow you to make vital plays by giving you the extra gold you need. They are a x3 in most of my NW decks and a x2 at minimum. Love em.

Varys - The dark master. I use this guy both aggressively and defensively - aggressively if my opponent has got a lot of renown sitting on characters and defensively if they're hammering my board state. You've got Marched to the Wall to clear up the slops afterwards, and Counting Coppers to fill your hand if you need it. Your choke cards. White Tree and A Meager Contribution give you a pretty good chance of successfully doing this, as is the stellar draw in the form of Arry and Messenger Raven

Fun combo: Put Craven on someone big, then stealth past them with Ghost to make them useless as a defender.
