would Lyanna Mormont?

No. I can't see any Queen or Lady using a broadsword to lop off someone's head. Theon Greyjoy took like 6 swings before he was able to hack that guy's head off back in season 2 or 3. Arya uses Needle and the only other woman on the show that actually swings a sword is a 6'8" Amazon. Your picayune attempts at discrediting Sansa just don't hold water, champ.

Needle could lop off a head

 

[Deepster]

Needle could lop off a head

Then why hasn't she lopped one off yet?

 

[August_West]

Then why hasn't she lopped one off yet?

Because she hasnt sentenced anyone to death via execution.

All her kills are revenge hits.

By all rights Littlefingers head should have been on a block yesterday.

Needle could lop off a head

even though it's valaryan steel, there's no way Arya has the brute strength to get through a neck

 

[OneTrickPony]

All I can say is...to all those backing Littlefinger to win the GOT...you know who you are...my deepest condolences on your recent loss. Console yourself with the fact that your loss is humanity's gain...

Indeed you finally see the light...half-way. This was a revenge hit. It was a collective revenge hit for Sansa and Arya and all the Starks. This was not the King in the North sentencing him to death. They laid out his crimes in a semi public forum solely so that those in the Vale understand the reasons, and that they don't lose support. Why do you think the murder he was accused of was the head of house Arryn? It was politically brilliant.

Actually is was a "trial"

'Game of Thrones' Recap, Season 7 Episode 7: The Show That Just Ghosted Everyone

This writer is clearly plagiarizing this board.

Yes, the story has suffered, but this writer clearly forgot that there were 6 previous seasons setting up, in the background, the fact that winter was coming, and with it many terrible things from the North. Now that that's happened, she's pissed? She's more shallow than the writing she's criticizing . . .

 

[intlzncster]

Littlefinger and Varys were great players of the Game. It is hard to make them as loveabley effective when the plot turns to Zombie Fighting. There isn't as much call for intrigue and backstabbing.

Tyrion's character poses much the same problem. He is a thinker like Littlefinger and Varys, but now the story is turning to Hero Stuff and there are only so many brilliant maneuvers to assign. John and Danny and the rest get most of those plotlines.

Once the white Walkers are defeated (god willing the world gets stuck in eternal winter and jon becomes the Night King), it'll get back to strategy a little bit.

But at some point, it was always gonna come down to swords.

 

[intlzncster]

So what happens to Pipsqueak Arryn now that Littlefinger is dead? I hope they don't redeem his character. I would like to see Sansa manipulate her way onto that throne.

Just to rub it in August's face. She is officially the head of House Stark. Everyone knows that right? John is the Targaryean heir once his parentage comes out and Sansa the True Lady of Winterfell.

Technically, it's Bran, even though he claims he's the 3-eyed raven. Normal people (everyone else) would say he is.

 

[intlzncster]

I agree. You re making my point for me.

Waiting 2 or 3 seasons too long to kill them waters down their deaths a lot. The audience forgets some of the power moves they have pulled and their accomplishments don't seem as meaningful since they happened 4,5,6 seasons ago.

Since they haven't had any use for them, why drag them along for so long? Their deaths would be so much more shocking/impactful if they happened when they were actually doing stuff.

But Tyrion might win the game. And he's probably the most liked character in the whole show, so if he does kark it, it'll be pretty damn impactful.

"Don't matter who did what to who at this point. Fact is, we went to war, and now there ain't no going back. I mean, shytt, it's what war is, you know? Once you in it, you in it. If it's a lie, then we fight on that lie. But we gotta fight."

-Slim Charles

Nice one.

 

[intlzncster]

I had more correct predictions this season than anyone. Go through thread.

hahaha this is such a cesspool move.

 

[intlzncster]

Why not a Lady Stark? Show me where the motto "One who passes the sentence shall swing the sword" has the caveat "except for women". You can't.

You think little lady Mormont wont swing the sword on her own? Everyone who watches the show knows she absolutely would. Why can she, but not Sansa?

Not even sure little lady mormont could lift that dagger...

 

[August_West]

Shed manage.

 

[intlzncster]

Come on. Clegan Bowl has been predicted by everyone and their mother. Even citrusdog has gotten that one right. Only Adub is foolish enough to change the prediction now.

#GradeInflation

hahahahah

 

[intlzncster]

It's ok to admit she's no longer the dumb 13 year old from season 1. We've all been there.

She's still dumb tho. Just not quite as dumb.

 

[intlzncster]

Shed manage.

I had to read that statement like 4 times. I first read 'ménage à trois in a shed." Scratching my head

I dont bother with punctuation on a mediocre conference submarining sports team fan board.

 

[intlzncster]

If your eyes are that good, you should try going to Alaska and seeing what countries you can see.

Apparently Russia is quite visible if Palin is to be believed.

 

[intlzncster]

Thats not the Stark way. With leadership comes responsibility.

I'm not a Sansa fan, but the Stark way seemed to get yourself killed pretty damn quick. So maybe it's for the best.

all those people are Dead because of Sansa.

Not Rickard or Brandon. Starks have a long line of dunderheads.
