Beginner Question about Starting Greyjoy

By Hellion3, in 1. AGoT General Discussion

Hi, how is everyone?

I just started playing A Game of Thrones a little while ago, and I have always been a Greyjoy fan and I was just wondering what are some of the best products to get when starting up a Greyjoy deck. I have the Kings of the Sea expansion and the core set. What other products would be best?

I really appreciate any help that you can provide.

Cheers,

Hellion

The Change of Seasons chapter pack is probaly a good choice along with the one to make it winter

I agree with laughing Tree. If I look on my greyjoy deck now I have 80% of cards taken from Kings of the Sea and Raven Cycle. Other cards i have in my deck from other sets are:

Distinguished Boatswain from Tales from the Red Keep 3x

Euron from A Song of Silence 3x

Die By sword from Lords of Winter 3x

I play still them in a winter Deck. If you wanna try raiders subtheme you have to buy all brotherhood cycle.

It would be a good idea to collect all of these and put them into one sticky post, one for beginners. These questions come up all the time on the forums, and it would be faster/easier for them to just reference that post, yes? (Obviously, we'd do this for every single house, not just GJ. :) )

the problem for sticky post is known... just imagine that in Events there is stycky the european championship of 2009 :-) and i asked several times to put OCTGN2 post stiky but nobody replied me.

Thanks guys this is exactly what i'm looking for. I hope to eventually get my hands on all the current chapter packs, but I just wanted a good place to start.

I really appreciate your help.

Some other gems:

1x Ancient Enemies (A Clash of Arms): Fury of the Kraken (restricted so not as useful, but the other restricted cards are in Kings of the Storm and the Defenders series which have less cards of interest to you.), Salt Wife

3x Sacred Bonds (A Clash of Arms): First Mate, Herald of the Sea, To Be A Kraken, Dragon Chaser

1x Refugees of War (A Time for Ravens): Alannys Greyjoy (Only one of her... so buy more if you like her), Island Refugee

3x Return of the Others (Defenders of the North): Tarle the Thrice Drowned (I think this one also has Val in it).

1x A Song of Silence (Brotherhood without Banners): Euron Crow's Eye, Retaliation (Cragorn, Longship Silence good for raider decks), (River Raid, Euron's Mongrel good for Mill decks).

1x Of Snakes and Sand (Brotherhood without Banners): Refurbished Hulk, (Bloodthirsty Crew, Euron's Enforcers, We Take Westeros good for mill),
