RE: SPOILERS ** Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 5 discussion ** SPOILERS

in #tv6 years ago (edited)

It was actually pretty good. Imho Euron only killed Rhaegal due to element of surprise and positioning. Not to mention it was hurt. Jon should have instructed Bran to warg scout the enemy but— he's no Rob Stark 🤷

Dany had more than enough experience to wipe them out in episode 4 but was devastated from her loss (or) the writers just wanted to bolster the enemy forces by giving them one huge kill.

Her dive and retreat attempt (ep 4) also likely showed the weakness of the scorpions; they cannot fire downward and even if they do they risk destroying the accompanying ships.

The wall mounted scorpions were all attacked from below, behind or at an angle faster than they can reload. Her going Mad Queen wasn't expected but was hinted at through her character arc and many 'fruedian slips'. Very fun to watch 😊👍

Only part I didn't favor was Cercie and Jaime going out that way 😞

yes, i enjoyed it... was just a shame it was so one sided. Good points by the way.

Thanks, I spent last week ranting after Rhaegal died myself... here's a gory meme I made but it's GOT so 🤷

yeah the whole Bran thing needs some sort of explanation or at least demonstration as to why he is important or even powerful. They kind of shelved that whole thing.
