Arya is going to kill the Night King in the trap laid out by the Three Eyed Raven. Once she gets her pants back on.

looking at Instagram they don’t seem that well shaped.


Google her leaked pics and you'll see that they are real and more impressive than you'd think.

Wouldn’t need to use it like a real sword, just needs to stab dead people with it

wrist action is pretty important when swinging that sword.

Yep. Try and swing a sword without wrist action and it will be such a long swing you'll die in seconds. That being said, they could attach a short sword or dagger to that arm and he can use it just for stabbing.

Although maybe he will prefer a shield in that hand? We haven't really seen him fight lefty in awhile so maybe he's improved a ton and would rather fight with sword and shield in hand.

What’s interesting is like the 2 times we watched Jamie fight he used 2 hands (short fight vs Nedd and when he got a sword vs Brienne)

You would think his left hand could do something.

What's amazing is how few troops are left in Westeros.

North fielded a 20,000 man army when Robb marched. Lannisters had 40,000 or even more. Free Folk marched 100,000 on the wall.

They have literally wiped each other out while the NK marches South.


Jon Snow? Is that you?

Aren’t there a few decent sized dornish armies just hanging out down south?

You would think so. I mean, I know Euron attacked Yara's fleet with the Sand Snakes but there had to be other troops on land I would imagine.

This is something else I wondered... like yeah Euron ambushed and destroyed the Sand Snakes, but did they really travel with their entire navy and army in tow to Dragonstone?

I guess maybe they do have a large army but we can fan exposition this issue by saying there's a power vacuum in Dorne and no one really has the power to mobilize the Dornish army?

Yeah she beats the Waif (heavily implied it's because she had an advantage in the dark) and all of a sudden shes the best fighter?

Agreed. People are putting too much stock in her beating Brienne during their practice fight.

My thoughts on best fighters in Winterfell

1. Jon Snow
2. Brienne of Tarth
3. Hound
4. Grey Worm
5. Arya (until proven otherwise)
6. Tormund
7. Jaime
8. Ser Baric
9. Pod
10. Gendry
11. Jorah
12. Theon
13. Ser Davos
14. Samwell Tarly
15. Tyrion

She's a decent fighter but she has NEVER fought in a battle. She's never seen anything like what's about to happen.

You just made a list of greatest fighters without Bronn or the Mountain.

Bronn/Mountain are tier 1, you can argue about the rest

This probably triggered 10 pages of content. Are we talking 1 on 1, or just an asset to the squad in general. Because although Arya is just an assassin that must of the bigger skilled soldiers would beat 1v1, they are definitely setting her up to have a Legolas esque impact fricking people up with arrows, throwing daggers and her darth maul staff. That being said, your list isn't bad other than the Jorah slander.

Random thought.
Is Cat Stark in the crypt? I can’t remember what happened to her body after the Red Wedding. I know about the Lady Stoneheart stuff in the books but that didn’t make it into the show.
If she’s not in the crypt could she show up as a wight?
