If he could throw an icicle at a dragon and bring it down, then why didn't he just do this to the guys standing in the middle of the lake?

It was part of his masterplan

He probably knew the dragons were coming. I'm pretty sure if all the viewers saw the same plot hole, the writers would have too.

It was part of his plan.
ofcoursh

because writers are idiot hack serial boykilling pedopervs.

12-D chess

NK is a greenseer exactly like Bran is.
He wanted the dragons to come so he could get one as a mount.

He throws all his spears then what does he attack jon snow with????

for the plot baby

Those ice spears are expensive

Lol Daenerys would have come anyway, she wouldnt know if they were alive or not. Stop trying to convince me this shit writing has any depth.

because he wanted to KO the flying one with the fall and make him drown

he needs a dragon to bring down the wall
he's a 4d wargmaster after all

Why wasn't she wearing any kind of hat or hood when she flew North?

>NK is a greenseer
>he doesn't lay a better trap and instead loses half his army from dragonfire

Why didn't Dany and jon snow just do a fly by on the dragon to show her the army and then fly back home safely? Shit is retarded

they needed one to convice cersei not dany for some reason

Can't cover Actors faces up, its all they got

>nights king couldnt have even got past the wall if this stupid mission never took place

They need to convince Cersei so that their war can stop, and they can all face the greater threat.

>Be Daenerys
>Your allies go on a mad suicide mission to the North to hunt the Night King Army
>send your best knight with them
>they will probably all die
>"k bye guys"
>raven comes
>oh no, they're all going to die if I don't do something

Why didn't she just go in the first place?

...

wouldn't it have been easier to just kill Cersei?

Gonna go with this. They must be magical or something and thus hard to come by. It's the only thing I can think of.

no she has plot armour

>See everything
>Understand the political divisions down south
>See King in the North coming to capture a wight
>Trap him on an island

Choice 1:
>Kill them all
>No wight gets taken south
>Northern lords in disarray
>Southern lords still oblivious to white walkers
>Humans continue fighting and killing each other
>Invade while human armies are all on southern end of continent and diminished from fighting eachother
>Take entire continent over with ease

Choice 2:
>Let humans escape with wight
>Allow them to unite entire continent against white walkers
>Significantly strengthen human's position in this war so I can ride a flying lizard for awhile

no they need the conflict between jaime wanting to be a hero and cersei wanting to take advantage of the white walkers because they fucked up his riverlands arc

the dragon will melt the wall in the season finale, you're welcome.

Probably because the flying one's were burning his entire army that he can easily replenish.

You don't kill the bait, the only thing he wanted was to put a Dragon in his army

I doubt it would be able to use fire ones it's dead

why does he look so retarded now

BLUE FIRE DABID, BLUE FIRE THAT MELTS THE WALL

people aren't Dragons

The Night King is Bran, so he's seen all of this already. The Night King's entire gameplan was to get as many dragons as he possibly could. That's why his goons just so happened to have chains.

He wasn't interested in killing his brother Jon.

Fucking this makes much more sense. Everyone who say DURR HE WANTED DRAGON ALL ALONG need to kill themselves.

or better yet, just quickly swoop in with the dragon and grab one soldier to take back

having the dragons just rescue the team undercuts their heroism and feels like a cop out, if they accomplished the mission by themselves it would've felt more satisfying

>sansa defending herself saying she was 13 when she wrote that letter
>arya countering by saying lyanna mormont is 10 and wont be so forgiving towards sansa

I know that plot isnt going anywhere but the fact that that pandering joke of a character even exists really makes every female character look weak. Ffs Robb was 16 and had trouble getting the northern lords to listen to him.

Why didn't Jon get on the fucking dragon? Why didn't Benjen get on the fucking horse?

No time

but then he has no way to go beyond the wall, the people trying to stop him just gave him the key to the south

because dany will then see his scars which results in boatsex
D&D are retards

Choice 3:
>flying on a fucking undead Dragon with blue eyes

Better yet take Jaime as well so he can convince Cersei

It will because fuck you the writers are lazy. NK could bypass the entire wall by going through Eastwatch while the entire southern half of the continent remains unaware of them but it's not as exciting of a plot. It would have been better if they accelerated the NK's plot a season earlier to give some time for more elaborate movements that give him some extra air of villainy. This season just feels like they realized they reached the final stretch and had an oh shit moment when they realized they had to get the entire WW plot done in 14 episodes.

because he's too little, user.

>but then he has no way to go beyond the wall

This feels like such a cop out. Are you saying that all the build up over 7 seasons was never going to happen unless he had his own dragon to bring down the wall?

You know what would have been cool? Have Cersei become the Night Queen.

You can blame GRRM for this sloppy shit

The icicle missile defense program is a threat to the peace and stability of geopolitical Westeros to be honest.

that's the way D&D are going about it
maybe it's different in the books with the horn of winter
the show just merges multiples plotlines and characters whenever it's convenient, maybe there is an other dragon in the books too, but i kind of highly doubt it will bring down the wall

What's the knight king tax policy?

I thought the icy bitch already was.

Also, like people have said why not kill Drogon? He would still get a dragon and get rid of the rest of these important warriors. Wouldnt he also know Jon Snow/Daenerys is the chosen one and definitely want him killed?

I guarantee you in 5 years these will be looked at the way we look at the Star Wars prequels.

>Why didn't Jon get on the fucking dragon?
he was securing the perimeter while everyone got on because he's a cool guy

>Why didn't Benjen get on the fucking horse?
the horse goes faster with just one person m8
Benjen is half dead, he already resigned to die beyond the wall

Night King: face expression eternally angry
Night Queen Cersei: face expression eternally constipated

i don't know m8, it's just downright bad writing, they just know some of these things will happen and they do it in the sloppiest way possible because they have to make OC dialogue and scenes

normies hated this episode as well, so should we do the opposite? so confused!

newyorker.com/culture/culture-desk/game-of-thrones-season-7-episode-6-recap-you-dont-understand

We don't know how many spears he had. Maybe they are magical spears that are difficult to make and he didn't want to waste any on humans in case he'd miss his shots like he did on Drogon afterwards.

Besides for all we know he could just not give a shit about the humans as long as he gets a dragon. Why would he? It's not like he would think that killing some retards on an island will make him win the war on humanity

Why didn't he shoot the dragon mounted by Jon and Dany? It was still on the ground, sure it would have been easier and more useful to shoot this one, wouldn't it?

>in 5 years

more like 5 hours bruh

>newyorker
>normies
Burlington Bar is the benchmark dear redditor

Those ice things are clearly some kind of special weaponry, probably on par with the Southerners Valarian steel. Why would the NK waste his sweet, yet fragile javelins when he knew the ice would eventually freeze over and he could just rush them?

Also, he now has an easy way to get over the wall.

>check this shit out

He also showed off at Hardhorne so it's not like it's out of "character".

Why do all creative types dress like moron teenagers? Fucking annoying.

So is it going to be an ice dragon now?

Would a dragon even be that useful for the walkers ? Roasted enemies can't be brought back as wights

I agree

Fwoosh > Bloosh

something like this is in the outline, it has to be. GRRM said it would be a morally grey ending, so having our heroes literally be the reason the night king is able to invade westeros is pretty much the definition of morally grey. This war will see westeros torn to pieces and everything will be all preachy and anti-war at the end. Also fuck bran and his predecessor for not telling anyone.

I do like the idea of contrasting the Mormont girl with Sansa. Wish there had been at least one scene between the two of them where she questions Sansa's leadership, maybe over not telling anyone about the Vale before the battle of the bastards or over her questioning Jon in front of everyone. Sansa can go into her whole rant about how she had to see her whole family die, and wedding night rape and blah blah blah. Then Mormont talks about how she lost all of her family, was put in charge of everyone who she has ever known including friends and the people who raised her at the age of 10. D&D could even put something in about her being at the red wedding, but was spared because she was a girl but the soldiers had their way with her. Basically she says she has had it way worse but doesn't go around acting like a stuck up bitch because of it. Contrast Sansa who deep down is driven by ambition and is slowly becoming more power hungry, with Lyanna who is all about honor and what is right for the North. End the scene with Lyanna saying Sansa is more like the manipulative lannisters then a noble northern lady. But they would never do that because then the feminists head would explode because two GURL POWER characters would be at odds.

If dubs, NK is Arya

dragons drop hella sweet loot, but you don't get lootdrops in pvp cuase got is hella casual and gay

Gain a giant dragon >>>>>>>>> lose a bunch of replaceable wights

>Unify the entire continent against you for a dragon that can be instakilled by a obsidian tipped arrow.

NK has greenseer abilities just like Bran
timeloop will be the final big twist
Nk is probably Bran himself or Bran from future who just stuck in his body

Those spears are what the redshirt WW use. The two guys that got rekt in this episode and Hardhome used these.

>ofcoursh
Can't this fucker just stick to an accent already

>flies near
>sees just the white walker army and no living people
>flies away

scary, i just watched this episode of the sopranos

fucking this. instead we got bullshittery in Dorne that led n o w h e r e

Because he wants to fuck Danny and Sansa. If he personally kills Jon, Sansa wont fall in love with and become his Ice Queen. He doesnt even want to take over Westeros, he's a cool guy. He just wants to fuck dime bitches and drive lambos, which is every great man's true ambition. Since there arent any lambos yet and he has to wait for them, he lures Danny in for her dragon instead. He wasnt even gonna kill the other dragon, what would be the point? When you get rich do you buy yourself a Lambo, and all ur boys equally good Lambos? No, you buy those fags a mustang or some shit. NK was gonna throw that spear right through Danny's heart, become Lord of Light, turn her into a white, then bring her back to life as his Fire Queen with his Fire Dick. Then he would fly down to Winterfell with his new fire hoe, and pull up his dragon next to Sansa, like "Bitch get in." Then the Nk turns Sansa into his Night Queen and they fuck all over Westeros. Then the NK flies to back to his Walkerbros and tells them all about it. He sings it to them in a song. A song of Ice and Fire.

see this dumbass

>kill Drogon while its sitting still
>kill other dragon when it comes to save mommy
>kill the humans
b-but then the show would be over....

second spear was heading for drogon till jon saw him targeting his s400 on them if dany decided to wait for jon she would have lost another dragon for sure

He wanted to display his power. To show his enemies That he ain't scared of their faggoty dragons.. even though he could have thrown it at Drogon so they wouldn't be able to escape, surrounding nearly all the people who believe he exists with his horde and fucking murder them all. But he chose not too because D&D are retarded. Because this whole episode was retarded.

NO TIME

Nights king could still hit her

BECAUSE HE DIDNT NEED TO...

Snow and Co were surrounded, why waste what is obviously some powerful weapon on them, when time will kill them instead.

Why wouldn't the dragons come, even though the fellowship was dead?
They had no way of knowing.

Where did the jobber that got eaten by a bear come from? How did he respawn afterwards, only to get thrown into a mob of walkers?

Doesn't in the books the WW like to toy with their prey? Maybe he just wants them to know fear and have an actual challenge in taking Westeros. Waiting all this time to just steam roll everything seems kinda boring.

I wouldn't mind the dragon looking like Sapphiron.

>drogon is fast enough to turn around and fry jamie charging at point blank range
>danerys waits a full minute to run away from lone spearchucker

JUST

The night king is Bran!

Trip on that for awhile......

>implying the NK knows that the world doesn't believe he exists
>implying he cares
>shows off his mean chad chuck
>Shows the Dragon Queen that Dragons won't save them in this War
>literally traded 200+ walkers for a his ticket to getting rid of that fucking eye sore that Brandon the builder made
>todaywasagoodday.jpg
>Thinking the NK won't stomp through the North with ease
>Thinking the NK won't stomp through the Riverlands with ease
>Thinking the NK won't be knocking on the doors of King's Landing

He is /ourguy/
Never Doubt /ourguy/

this is literally the moment drogon dodged the second spear almost got the friendzone warrior

He's like vegeta he needs someone to flex his nuts against

hey idiot, it was clearly established the zombies started attacking again when they saw the lake froze again.

But how will he defeat the Day King?

that is Sindragosa
