Right, but until they are all frozen, how in the world does she get that close? I mean there are a ton of white walkers surrounding that little clearing. Was she just hiding being sneaky, did she steal one of their faces, or something else?
It would have been good to have just shown something very brief to key the audience into how she was able to get there and be close enough for when they are all frozen, she can make her move. She wasn't just standing way behind hundreds of white walkers and was like, okay they stopped moving, i'm just going to sprint past all of them and hope they are frozen. She absolutely had to have been hidden pretty close, maybe in the trees or something.

I think they covered that by showing how sneaky she was being while evading them earlier in the episode. Plus, the last few seasons have shown her come a long way in her training and skills. I think all of that sort of culminates into her being able to catch him by surprise.

I just don't see the point in leaving that completely up to the audience to decide how it was done. The method could change some things going forward with what her abilities are.
I'm not questioning her ability to get there and kill him. They definitely built her abilities up enough that it is plausible. My only point is that there was no reason to not even give the audience a glimpse of what she is doing from the moment she leaves to castle to when she is leaping at NK's back.
ETA: Like say if when they had showed the wind whooshing by that one's head, have him look down slightly and you see a "face" dropping to the ground as well. Continue the rest of the scene as is. Just something simple that cue the audience into how exactly she was able to get through a wall of white walkers.

She barely had any training.
...in the show she completed her training. Jaqen said something to the effect of it looks like a girl is finally no one. IE she got the faceless stamp of approval.
im not sure why people keep bringing up the training thing. Arya has literally been training since season 1, and a couple seasons training with the faceless. A central theme of her character is having a list of names to bring to the faceless god. I don't think there is a character in this show they spent 1/2 the amount of time on training. Hell people used to complain GoT spent TOO MUCH time on Arya training.

Arya is probably the most dangerous fighter in Westeros
