Man an Unglued set for AGoT would be funny. I'd love to see what they come up for broken versions of the big characters. Like an Eddard Stark that said, "While Eddard Stark is participating in a challenge, you automatically win. Kill Eddard Stark if you smile."

And for those who don't know, Unglued was a fun MtG set with absurd cards like Burning Cinder Fury of Crimson Chaos Fire. That card made it so that every time you tapped (knelt) a card you gave it to the other player. Or the Hokey Pokey Knight which said "WW: Do the hokey pokey to give Hokey Pokey Knight Protection from X until the end of the turn." Ahhh… good times.

While the Kingsmoot variation uses alternative titles, I think I'd enjoy some new or additional titles added to melee to spice things up.  Maybe change the titles and what they do every 6 months or each year.  That is a dumb idea, yes, but I would enjoy some dynamic added to the game other than waiting for new cards.

Make some up and use them I don't expect FFG will provide content like that. It's up to the player base to take some initiative with the game to help it develop. The NYC meta is trying out a two chapter cycle + Core + 1 Expansion deck format for our league play. I'll let you know how that goes… So far my Stark kill deck isn't looking pretty without any draw. >.>

I'm getting to try my favorite terrible card, Trident Reinforcements, again, though!

I could say the same thing about making up my own cards in general.  If I were going to design my own game, I guess I would do that.  Plus, the folks that I know would not want to steer away anything that is not part of the current card pool and rules.  We don't play often enough to want to do that…

Your league play sounds like it would be generally fun with your own built-in restrictions.  Doing that is where I think deck building can feel more interesting, dynamic, and competitive at the same time if you keep switching up the card pool limits since there would be some interesting decks build unlike some of the T1 builds in the most current card pool.
