Hello, everyone. I am building a Lannister deck for the regionals, and I would like your advice. I need location control, and I'm not sure what to put in. Nightmares is flexible, since dupes won't save you from it and you can use it on characters, too. However, Condemned by the Council seems like a more permanent solution. I am not sure which one to play. Can someone give me advice?
Nightmares vs. Condemned by the council
Condemned by the Council imo. The permanent removal is better than the flexibility Nightmares has.
Nightmares is good too though, especially if its a rush deck you're building.
I will agree with Alando. Lannister works well with condemned by the council.
Maybe you could post your deck here to give it a look.
I don't have all of the cards yet, but this is what I plan it to be:

The idea is to drop Fear of Winter on turn 1 so that they can't play all of their good cards before they get discarded. Then, just get them down to 0 cards, Valar if necessary, then procede to win the game.
