So a while back I was kinda tired of the defensive style of NW decks, so I thought I should do something a bit more aggressive this is the result.

Your goal is to slowly wear down your opponent with tiny advantages, the icon spread is therefore really key, every challenge is important. I've had a lot of fun with this deck, it really forces you to think and prioritise your challenges a lot! Your goal is to wipe the opponents board and keep them from replaying anything good though so mill challenges are often the thing you should focus on.

Since valar was out i was thinking a lot about cutting down on the Ghost Arry and Samwell Tarly but all of them are really good for the small advantages you need to win and because of Varys it's very seldom a problem.

Political Disaster was really great, would have been even better against more greyjoy. Even if it just gets 2 reducers its worth it and you only really need White Tree and a The Roseroad

Put to the Torch didn't do a lot, I mainly had it because I expected more tyrells, The Arbor is the doom of the deck!

If there's any questions, feel free to ask!

Neat deck! I'm trying to do something similar. What are your thoughts about putting Will in a deck like this? His disadvantage is real, but Stealth and Intrigue is so appealing. Also, has dissension been worth the card slot?

Azathas 17

Will is definitely not worth it, you have nothing to help you stop the uo. Dissension has been good just to remove reducers, the way you win on board is through claim so chuds can really ruin your day. It's not really a key card though

Nice deck, Azathas ! What about Yoren? Did you manage to use him often after a Varys turn?

Azathas 17

Yoren is supergood! Since I often start with wraiths he is effective from turn 2, reset or not. But yes I used him after varys a few times, to great result, and the turn after first snow, He's just overall really great as a followup to resets
