By Behesi, in 2. AGoT Rules Discussion

When a card say something like "when you win a challenge by 4 or more TOTAL strg, do something" those that meen the diference between my strg and the defense strg most be 4 or more, or those it means I have to have 4 or more total strg, doesn't matter how mouth the other player strg is?

Cards that follow that template mean that your STR total must be X or more greater than the defender's. So, if you win a challenge 5-1, you can play a card that says "if you win by 4 or more total STR", but if you win 4-1, you cannot.

Contrast with Make An Example, that merely requires you to "count" 8 or more total STR. It doesn't care what the defender's total was so long as you won with a total of 8 or more.
