You took 1st, 2nd, 2nd, 1st and didnt make the final table? Thats rough. Maybe with 64 people should cut to top 8.

I'm top 8. I finish 5th

But I have 32 points. The 4th have 33points... No soucy... Next year may be ^^

Congrats on some good games!

Just curious - how does "Good for the Gander" work out for you? Do you usually have good luck with getting to chose a useful ability to copy?

Why do you prefer the "Rusted Sword" to the "Northern Steel"?

Thanks happy.gif

Good for the Gander: When your enemy deal together, you listen what they will play. Too easy to copy draw or search effect.

Rusted Sword: When you play "To be a wolf", adversary can say event, or attachement... If you need a pump, you can search a event to make +2 F, or Rusted Sword... In add, I find I have not lot of Military icon. And Sansa Stark with Rusted Sword, or Craster, are so funny in a SIege Deck

Ahhhh - very sneaky!

Thanks for the response.

Could you explain the purpose of Reek ? Seems like a fun card, but is he just there as a game closer, e.g. allowing you to take control of an opponent's character with power on it?

Reek is auto-include in any Stark deck.

Reek + Craster or Reek + Title: +3Intrigue... is jut too easy to use his ability.

In second, Reek has a target in the face. Condamned by the kingdom is often for him. Like that, Robb, Cavalery, etc... stay alive

What's the purpose of Theon Greyjoy? This guys seems a double-edged sword. If you lose a challenge like intrigue or power, you'll have to discard your location or character as well.

The same reason than Reek. He is a target, but you haven't to got him in play. More, he is "stealth"
