Your mostly typical Wall deck updated after Valar meta. The additions have made NW one of the best houses in the game, in my opinion.

Tournament had 20 or so players, played against (in order): Tyrell Fealty?, Greyjoy Fealty?, Targaryen Fealty, Martell Watch (incredibly boring game, nobody ever attacked -I think I did maybe a couple of times just to get UO's, and that was it- and I was lucky to get the Wall out early enough), Lannister Kraken (probably my worst game all day, thankfully I was swimming in Milks and Cravens and he couldn't get through my defenses).

I got lucky since there were a couple of pretty strong Bara players with decks that would have obliterated mine, but it's their fault for not winning every other game :) Overall, I'd say the deck is pretty solid and can give almost anyone a run for their money.

A few notes regarding unusual choices:

Plots

Fallen from Favor - Absolutely amazing in this meta. If you get it out on a Valar Morghulis turn, you get to save someone + a shitload of gold to use. If you got a milked Benjen Stark/Arry or a Dolorous Edd who just lost a challenge, you can use it to get rid of them when otherwise they'd been useless. The fact that it can fuck your opponent up really good if you happen to use it on their Varys's Riddle turn is just the icing on the cake. Also, not unheard of to have a completely wiped table after a double Valar Morghulis. 7/7/1/7 for free, yo.

Valar Morghulis - Too good of a plot not to use it. More often than not it'll work to your advantage even on a 100% defensive deck, thanks to Maester Aemon, the The Haunted Forest and the fact that most of your characters are cheap and non unique.

Filthy Accusations - This got in after a friend's recommendation (way better player than me so figured I'd listen to him). Typically unexpected, usually forces your opponent to bring out another big character which they may not have planned on doing before you knelt their main guy. I've opened with it, won games with it, and had times were it did nothing for me. Wish it had a higher reserve. Check it out.

Chars

Shadow Tower Mason - This guy is a x3 as long as you plan on defending The Wall.

Thoren Smallwood - I really love this guy. I figured I'd have to drop him to x1 after Qhorin Halfhand is out, but I may not be able to: he's too good.

Locations

The Haunted Forest - Just like the Shadow Tower Mason, this has to be a x3 as long as your win condition is protecting The Wall. I've had several people argue that it should be a x2. Trust me, they're wrong.

Would appreciate any feedback.

Really like your amendments here mate. Fallen From Favour is a lovely touch. That plot is seeing something of a resurgence in a few builds as of late.

How do you like Sweet Donnel Hill? I've been resisting putting him into my NW decks.

Antrim 213

@action_johnny I think I am the only one playing it in my meta, but I love it so much I'm going to put it in every deck I play. Seriously, I'm tempted of going x2.

@Kakita_Shiro Very situational, with a blade he's great against Stark and maybe Greyjoy but that's about it. In my meta nobody plays Stark and I haven't lost a game against GJ in a hella long time so x1 is max for him, and he'll probably be out by next chapter.

I've tested Fallen from Favor and I have mixed feelings about it. It has amazing stats but sometimes, especially shortly after a Valar, you just don't have the bodies to swing it. I definitely understand the inclusion though.

Why no Sworn Brother? You have a lot of Location that they can help.

Antrim 213

@Joe From Cincinnati I've been playing the plot in almost every deck since Valar came out. I'd say every few games I may find myself in a situation in which it can backfire on me, but most of the time I make great use of it. The other day I had an only location setup and my opponent played Varys's Riddle assuming that I was gonna open with the typical Here to Serve. That was fun.

@uBaH What do you take out? They'd be useful for sure, but you'd need at least x2 since you want to see them really early or they lose their value.

uBaH 139

I would drop 1x Milk of the Poppy and 1x Thoren Smallwood.

Still the most important Icon you care is Power.

Antrim 213

@uBaHI like the chances of a dupped Thoren Smallwood and possibly milking a big char a whole lot more than maybe saving a bit of money.

Joe From Cincinnati 1672

1 Halder and 1 Hill would be much easier to swallow.

uBaH 139

@Joe From CincinnatiI wouldn't drop Hill. Surprisingly for me he started to draw stealth to him than other targets at time (Practice Blade or not). With the approach @Antrimwants to follow it is really hard to cut 2 cards for Sworn Brother, but I'll for sure try and make some.

Curious, will you set up with The Wall, The Haunted Forest and Castle Black? Then play Fallen from Favor on your first plot.

Antrim 213

@Joe From Cincinnati That sounds more doable, although I hate going with less than x3 for Halder. May need to at some point, but probably not for a couple of Sworn Brother.

@uBaH I'm glad to hear he's working that well for you. He's never been amazing for me, so he's probably out by next chapter.

@ironlix Depends on the rest of the hand after setup, but I'd probably do that more often than not. And if you catch their Varys's Riddle because they want to look for their maester, that's just the icing on the cake.

This deck is pretty bad honestly. Wall gets owned by Treachery and Nightmares which Haunted Forest does nothing about. 3x Halder further proves the point. There are better wall decks out there.

Joe From Cincinnati 1672

@LickMyBalzactrololol

Antrim 213

@Joe From Cincinnati He's got a point, there are 58 cards in the deck -including The Haunted Forest- which do nothing about Treachery and Nightmares, yeah. That's why I thought it'd be smart putting the x2 The Hand's Judgment in there ;)

Joe From Cincinnati 1672

@AntrimWell, I mean what you should have done is use the agenda that says "the Wall can't be Treacheried or Nightmares'd."

It makes the deck run so much more smoothly.

why fealty? king of winter wouldn't be better?
