I will just proceed with my lolz/nitpicking...

Bronn's scene with Jamie/Tyrion was odd... he was clearly open to another offer... he's a sellsword, he's always looked for a better offer.... but this time he goes in and punches Tyrion and threatens to murder Jamie.... k... weird.

Also lmao at his crossbow reloading skills.... like a bolt action crossbow.

And that leads me to LMAO Rheagal..... you got rekt by ultra-ballistas m8.

Sorry but they took a historical weapon, so best guess should be history on this one:

"The bolt-firing scorpio had mainly two functions in a legion. In precision shooting, it was a weapon of marksmanship capable of cutting down any foe within a distance of 100 meters. In parabolic shooting, the range is greater, with distances up to 400 meters, and the firing rate is higher (3 to 4 shots per minute). With precision shooting the rate of fire was significantly less. Scorpions could be used in an artillery battery at the top of a hill or other high ground, the side of which was protected by the main body of the legion. "

They were shooting upwards, against gravity, at a flying dragon, from an unsteady platform on water, and seemingly were shooting like every 10 seconds, and either Euron got off 3 shots that all hit Rheagal in under 10 seconds or him and two other shooters hit Rheagal inside of 10 seconds.

No way that range wasn't 1000m or more between distance and height.

It is an amazing feat to this day if Navy Seals can make shots from large naval vessels at other moving targets with high powered, modern rifles... but Euron and his guys rekt Rheagal with Roman-era siege weapons which also can chew thru ships like they are made of paper.

And can anyone explain why Dany and her ships went to Dragonstone? Why the **** didn't they just go with Jon to King's Landing?

PS: Those super-ballistas were all in range of Drogon, why didn't they light him the **** up? Lol they established their own nonsensical precedent about the range/power/accuracy of those weapons, and then either decided to pretend they didn't or pretend Cersei/Euron are so stupid they wouldn't jump at the chance to kill Drogon/Dany....

And Tyrion...Varys.... Grey Worm... Cersei could have killed all of them out in front of King's Landing.

Sansa got some Littlefinger in her. She's kinda manipulative

Yeah she learned from him but her actions are too transparent compared to his. Of course she has plot armor to protect her.

He's always wanted his Littlefinger in her.

This is 100% spot on

I was just about to post, I forgot to add to my LOLZ list.

Half your guys.... half of every group in the Winterfell defense died, and half survived.

**** is this? a Total War auto-sim battle result?

Idk about you ******* but aint no half of the Dothraki survived... unless half of them were chilling inside Winterfell somewhere.

End of episode 3 in the courtyard area it was Jon vs A Dragon.... Brann/Theon/Arya vs Night King and 120938210983109 Wights + his 9 useless Wight Walker dudes.... and then like ten named characters vs 32948023094882304 Wights which couldn't pierce their plot armor.

99% of the troops in the area adjacent to the garden were dead lol... but some hidden component allowed a nice exact 50% to survive.

If we go with rough estimates....

20-30k North/Vale troops.... so 10-15k survived.

40k Dothraki Blood riders.... so 20k still survived (match Golden company)

Hey even 50% of the dragons survived! (Too soon?)

They obviously respawned bro

I bet the Winterfell Maester gives a +50% return of battle casualties buff.

But the buff only applies to siege battles fought in Winterfell.

Don't expect this buff to apply to upcoming King's Landing battles.

Fun fact Qyburn gives any army or navy units under Cersei's coalition a +99% siege weapon accuracy buff

 

[RacerX]

Jamie is the same Jamie. Ok dude when not under Cersei's influence and a fucking cuck when he is. Nothing has changed in 8 seasons with him.

Jamie, Cersei, Sansa. The 3 main people I just want to see die miserably before it is all over. Sadly I think I will only get 2 out of 3.

Maybe you just want to secretly rage-**** Sansa?

Don't forget the Samwell Tarley invulnerability buff that protected all the main characters. That scene where he is rolling around in pain as if he is severely constipated was actually him activaying the buff.

As for Qyburn, think his buff is one time usage given how badly they missed Dany and the preview where it looks like Euron's fleet about to get fucked.

Oh shit you right that buff is like one of the Anthem consumables, but you forget to equip it on the next mission.

"Why dis not work da same?... Ohhh no... FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUK"

 

[Gustavus Adolphus]

Spoiler

I'm actually fairly convinced that Cersei wins it all.

If she does then I think some will go nuts. Probably a few death threats for showrunners.

What they need to do is look for the milk of human kindness. That will give them +1000 shield protection

Perhaps Tormund will return with Milk of Human Kindness to buff Jon when his plot armor wears off
