This deck is a modification of a previous one which worked well in tournament and in funny context (against skilled players). It was stable ( I won against a /, $Stark/Fealty, , , ) but the match-up against was unfavorable. I tried to include some changes to obtain a better balanced against this faction (, , ,...).

This deck allow to play in first or second position with the possibility to be agressive or defensive. This is due to the use of Highgarden, Mare in Heat (combined with Arbor Knight), Randyll Tarly and other characters with keywords which work in both cases. As I said in the title, I have some interests for a deck control strategy. The use of Seen In Flames and "The Bear and the Maiden Fair" which allow to see in the hand of the opponent and to anticipate (exluding some embarassing cards) the next draw. This strategy gave me interesting advantages in the tournament (including in lost games :-), reducing the extent of damage). The increase of strength and kneeling action have some interest to make combos with Street of the Sisters or Put to the Sword but it's not the main element of this strategy. Concerning the problem, I try to change Maester Cressen by Rattleshirt's Raiders, Maester Cressen can be controled Milk of the Poppy, it was a problem when your other characters were attached by Craven... I also changed a plot (Here to Serve) by Confiscation. Finally, I think it will be more effecient.

Why did you face problems with NW? I think you will need a bit of more speed to get them quickly. NW has a huge weakness to renown decks, because they don't plan on winning any challenge, but rather to oppose all in order to get the Wall to work. Personally I'd invest in more Knights, (Hedge Knights, Knight of Summer, Davos) and close an early game with Tourney for the King.

@HidaHayabusa I played this and i had 3 Hedge Knight in my deck but I lost each game I played against . My opponents played Kings of Winter and they played quickly The Wall. As they draw easily, and they played quickly Craven and Milk of the Poppy... (I lost one game with Craven on The Knight of Flowers, Randyll Tarly and Milk of the Poppy on Melisandre...). If I can't attack, it's hard to grab some power tokens against my opponent.

Well, the approach with Knights uses 5 summer plots, making his Choke less effective. NW can control as much. If they Milk Crassen, it means that they won't milk somebody else. If you go double Crassen, Confiscation and 1 Rattleshirt, chances are you are keeping them busy. NW is some of the easiest matchups with Renown knights.

@HidaHayabusa It's not a bad idea (add Maester Cressen in *2). But it's surprising for me thant you say is not the worst match-up for me. I will try to make these changes.

NW has three weaknesses. Power heavy decks, renowns and the mirror match.
