At the end of Season 7, episode 1, when the wall was brought down by the NK, we saw more than one giant. I'm just surprised the directors didn't avert their minds to this. Despite the many giants, we only saw one in Season 8 Episode 3. I mean can someone explain that part to me?

The remaining giants were still on their way to join the others, but unfortunately they didn't make it before Arya killed their master.

Are you satisfied now?

Keep looking for loopholes you hear?

Stop pulling excuses out of your aśs just to defend a poorly written, poorly crafted screen work. Only Arya killed him, and he died too easy. Too soon.

Please don't reply me. angry
You too calm your nerves. Your are taking this way overboard. Just because the NK got killed easily(thou a lot don't agree with that) doesn't make the episode poorly written. If you want people to get your point, then you should learn how to pick your words.

I know. That's why I'm talking about his armour. Shouldn't that have been constructed to protect him from dagger stabs?

Who will construct it for him? Gendry? You?

Because they showed one doesn't mean only one was present, dragon fire could have killed the others, another soldier could have killed the soldier, a hundred possibilities could have happened

The gender of the person who kills the night king isn’t important as long as he has been killed but you were saying rubbish , I blame you not . You’re suffering from Stockholm syndrome

Quick one. Did you even see how the people already in the crypt looked at Sansa? (Yes i know they were in despair) but only Gilly stood up.
She had the audacity to even hold small talks with Tyrion about the Dragon Queen.....good thing Missandei shut her down.

Have you ever seen Dany with a sword before?

Did you hear her whinge about not knowing how to use it?

Tyrion really fall my hand there by not stepping out...the guyman picked up some items at the beginning of the episode. I thought it was weapons...didn't know it was just wine and maybe bread. grin grin . If they were given small chance, Sansa and Tyrion would've made out right there sef.

Meanwhile i salute Melisandre, Beric, The Hound and Arya.

There is a very small mainroad that separates being brave and being stupid. I prefer being wise. I'd chose the battles I fight well.

Each single person knows where they are good at. Where they are competent, and where they are not. We have warriors, but those in the crypts were not warriors. They do not understand battle, it's strategies...fighting in general. What's the use of putting them in battle only for them to become a liability.

Some people on this thread called same a coward. They faulted him for not going into the crypt. His incompetence on the battle field caused the death of Ed. Would have also caused that of Jon.

You can't eat your cake and have it. You can't chastise Sam for not joining the people in the crypt as he is useless in battle and still go ahead to call those who went useless because they can't pick up a sword and fight. No. It doesn't work that way.

If those in the crypt had fought on the battlefield, best case scenario, they would have died and become wights, worst case scenario, they would have cause the deaths of other soldiers who would probably want to save them...and they would have also died.

One of the bravest things to do is know who you are, who you really are. And be contented with it. Those in the crypt weren't useless. They just stepped aside for those who were good at the killing do it.

Not necessarily, at the emboldened. I think you should understand why 'it had to be Valyrian Steel' and not even Dragon Glass or just any metal.

Valyrian Steel are supposedly forged with Dragon Fire, according to legend. Every Valyrian Steel is said to contain magic spells, giving it magical characteristics. Besides, most typical swords can comfortably pierce through armours, depending on how it is forged, the type of armour and all.

So regardless of how huge or little the steel is, it still carries the same power as the other forged Valyrian Steel. One could even argue that the Night King's knowledge of Jon being in possession of the Steel was what made him reanimate fresh bodies in order to defending himself. The Night King saw the power of the steel in the previous season.

The steel is not just rare because Valyria not longer existed. The argument would be the number of Dragons available, spell casters to fuse the spell and the Dragon fire in order to forge to steel.

An armour wouldn't have been able to stop the power of the steel.

You shouldn't have answered the guy. Dude just speaks irrelevantly.

If Valyrian steel can harm Nk. . . .why can't Dragon fire.
I mean Valyrian steel is special cause it's forged in the breath of Dragon fire so. . .?

One would have thought those quotes would give you better understanding but alas they are colored by your bias.

"look the truth in the face" and see that it takes "heroic strength" and "wisdom" to stand by in this situation "and do nothing".

Everyone did their part, no one is weak, no one is useless, except maybe the fumbling dothrakis with their flaming swords, who did not stick to the plan.

LET THE FIGHTER FIGHT, AND THE RULERS RULE.

How many fights have you seen Danaerys in? Onion Knight? Sam?

Tyrion offered to go up, not to fight, but to offer strategic assistance, and was laughed out the room. Even when he brought up his experience at the black water.

Everyone down there was useless. It's now a matter of to what degree. Varys may be useless in battle, but he's an excellent spymaster. Tyrion may be semi-useless in battle, but he's a good bureaucrat.

Sansa is useless in battle and useless as a ruler. Useless in marriage, and now that she's no longer the only stark, she even useless in politics!

Sansa puts the U in uselessness

Just some observations from this thread:

1) The way people use the word useless, you'd think they have the experience.

2) People just want the end. There is a journey brothers and sisters. Every single peice plays it's part.

Arya may just be the ‘prince’ that is mentioned in the prophecy. A relentless battle until a last minute reprieve by Arya. Too many dark scenes, it was quite difficult to see what was going sometimes so had to turn off the lights in the living room. I suspect people with poorly calibrated TVs would have also found key moments during the battle of Winterfell difficult to see. It was a epic episode, people who are calling the NK execution disappointing are forgetting Cersei and Kings Landing will be a challenge. She is a true King as she is ruthless and cunning. Don’t underestimate her.

Well, let me defend the showrunners if there is even anything to defend. I feel because of budgetary constraints, they had to do with just one. There were so many creatures that were supposed to appear on screen e.g ice spiders etc but because of their budget that had to just stick with what you saw on TV.

All I'll say to you is to look at that scene again, and don't just look with your eyes alone, look with you brain too, so as to decode what I meant.

You people on this thread are wicked oo. Which one is look with brain again grin

But I felt the same way too when I watched that scene. I thought Jon was a goner. Then my brain tried to do some explanation. Maybe it's because it's a rock. Maybe it's because rock is different from ice. Maybe ice melted because it's water but rock did not melt because it's stone. Maybe it's because the rock is hard, very hard.

But wait, dragon fire can melt stone now. Okay maybe it's because...Ehmm, Maybe it's... Maybe...

I can't explain it.

Thank you for trying to explain to the Sansa haters club.

But i am sure your explanation will not be enough for them.

Also no armour is ever perfect? I recall a scene out of Dark Knight when Bruce Wayne was speaking with Lucius Fox about the armour for the next suit. An armour requires flexibility and ease of movement however these points will make the wearer vulnerable. Ever heard of chink in an armour? Well the Night King had one so easily penetrated from close ranged weapon grin.

Great episode until the Night King was killed by Arya. Death was too easy for the NK in my opinion. [b]An experienced fighter like NK [/b]could not see that move by Arya?

Well it has to end sha. The show that is.

If Arya wore the face of bran and pulled that stunt I would have been more impressed than jumping out of nowhere to kill death himself.

Rating 6/10

How do you know this please?
Have you seen him fight on the show?
Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Magnifico2000: 8:18am On Apr 30, 2019
I think the showrunners listend to the fans. They ate fond of killing favourite characters like what they did with Need, catelyn etc.

So they decided to keep the main characters till the last episodes.

Good.

Well, that is kind of the point. Up until hardhome, Valyrian steel was nothing more than rare resource from an extinct city. It was at hardhome where we saw it could break whitewalker ice swords.

Prior to that, Valyrian steel wasn't piercing or breaking other steel artefacts like that.

Case in point, Jamie Lannister fighting Ned Stark in season 1. Only Ned had a Valyrian steel sword in that battle, and it was not shown to have any other special abilities when used against other metals.

NK possibly has some metal workers in his retinue - it might explain where the chains came from, and how the previously shirtless whitewalker goons rolled up to winterfell clad in armour.

If he could come back, maybe he should do what you said up there, and get a refund cheesy
