Rise of the Kraken 1.0

No agenda with only 17 neutrals seems odd. Why not cut two and then have the benefit of fealty?

Because this deck benefits more from the neutral cards then it does from fealty. Which neutral cards would you cut ? And what would you replace them with?

I am not going to claim to know alot about GOT. I have gotten some deck ideas from this site that I have liked. Some of the rules are still a little fuzzy to me.

`@JoePerson made a comment about cutting 2 cards and adding fealty. I looked at @edrazpgh deck and he has a total of 5 loyal cards. So fealty to me does not have alot of value. Those cards are 1 Balon Greyjoy, 2 The Reader, and 2 locations which he is more likely to get with Support of the People I think.

Something I personally am not a fan of in a deck is trying to combo 1 x of a card with another 1 x of another card. In your deck you have 1 Balon Greyjoy and 1 Great Kraken.

An adjustment I woudl consider if you wanted to go fealty would be -1 Littlefinger, and -1 Support of the People, and +1 Balon Greyjoy and +1 Great Kraken

By no means am I a top player.

@babdeveau you're right on about Feality not giving me much. The locations com into play mostly by Support of the People which is why I have 3 of that card instead of dupes of Great Kraken , Raiding Longship, and The Seastone Chair. I'd rather be able to dig for the locations I don't have then get a dupe of something I do have. I also don't really want Great Kraken in my opening draw very much.

As far as Balon Greyjoy and Great Kraken combo goes, neither are in the deck for that combo. Great Kraken is there for the power gain and card draw only. If I get the combo with Balon Greyjoy awesome but Asha Greyjoy, Theon Greyjoy, Little Bird, and Rise of the Kraken are going to win me the game. Balon Greyjoy is only a backup. This deck very much wants to drop 5 cards during setup and can consistently do so. If I put too many Balon Greyjoy in it won't be consistent enough.

Lastly card draw is super important for this deck. Littlefinger, Counting Coppers, The Reader , and the Great Kraken all do that for me. I agree that I might be able to drop 1 Littlefinger though. I hate getting him in my opening hand but I do want it out almost every game.

Also a few more things that people may not realize. When you use Support of the People to drop a location, in this deck, that location can usually trigger right away.

And one more point about Fealty, both it and The Seastone Chair need to kneel my faction card. So they can be in conflict.

Lastly if I'm really missing anything it might be Rattleshirt's Raiders, another neutral card. Milk of the Poppy on Asha Greyjoy sucks. Confiscation can usually take care of that but sometimes she gets it twice. I also sometimes wish I had a 3rd Milk of the Poppy but I just can't really fit it in.
