Curious to see what Davos does with Melisandre. Seems many are expecting him to try to kill her. I'd normally disagree just based on how pragmatic Davos is, but they seem to be building towards some type of showdown. [Reply]

When you have a massive numbers advantage, why wouldn't you? Sure, you'll hit your guys, but each individual loss hurts them much more than it hurts you.
Seems pretty pragmatic to me. Afterall, There's a pretty solid chance that many of those guys get cut down anyway. [Reply]

Jon is certainly more honorable but he's a bastard with something to prove. Switch the two and Robb may have been more like Ned.
On the battlefield, apparently they're all the creme de la creme. Ned led a successful rebellion, Robb never lost a battle and Jon's fought the undead.
Pretty interesting that honor got both Ned and Robb killed, only for completely opposite reasons. [Reply]
Jon Snow getting trampled, then buried underneath bodies had me tapping out there.
augh. My worst nightmare is being buried alive. :shiver:
I was cheering that tactic by Ramsey's dudes. Encircle and apply pressure. Reminded me of the trash compactor scene in Star Wars for some reason. [Reply]

... don't forget Jon. He tried to do the honorable thing, and was killed for it as well. [Reply]

Showing zero regard for the lives of the soldiers you are leading is not pragmatic. If you're part of the force that hasn't moved in yet, what are you thinking watching that? How about if you're an archer, flinging arrows at people you know? [Reply]
In the love for the Battle of the Bastards, which was no doubt great, no one is commenting too much on the battle for Slaver's Bay. That whole sequence was fantastic. [Reply]
