    Walder Frey - villain you love to hate. Grey Worm has no character.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 9,273 ✭✭✭duffman13


    Greyworm was boring tbh, a couple of good fight scenes and a poor love plot wasn't a highlight for me.

    Walder Frey is a disgusting hateful old bollocks, reminds me of me! He gets my vote


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Walder Frey definitely one of the best of the lesser characters, who had a big impact on the story, despite less screen-time, so he gets my vote.

    Plus, what a fantastic actor.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,496 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Walder Frey - Pivotal to one of the best scenes and also one of the best acts of revenge. Grey Worm was just an unthinking goose stepper.

    Walder Flitch .... I mean Frey ... for being a mean old conniving bastard.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33 liamo77


    Walder Frey. Great evil character

    Match 18:

    Next up a side character takes on a minor character, it's an all female battle that would have actually been cool to see play out:

    The Waif

    VS



    Asha/Yara Greyjoy

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Asha because she's a much more important character in I didn't care for the Waif. Wish they hadn't changed her name for the show though.

    Two fairly poor characters to be honest, the waif was a pain in the gick, so was Yara but probably to a slight lesser extent.

    Yara to be eliminated swiftly in Rd2


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    No idea who the waif is so Asha by default.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 735 ✭✭✭Aceandstuff


    They had potential, but both were boring and pointless characters in the end. I vote for Yara, she was funny once or twice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,550 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    The Waif, if only just for the chase etc where she was finally outdone by Arya finding her capabilities.

    Yara was a character with more to tell but felt they never did.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,496 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Asha/Yara Greyjoy - Would probably vote against her in most other matches but The Waif is probably the worst character in the thread so far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,417 ✭✭✭Westernyelp


    Asha. Swashbuckling pirate queen with lesbian tendencies. What's not to like?


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 57,918 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Asha/Yara, stupid HBO - anyways the Greyjoy advances to Round 2.

    Match 19:

    The horselord takes on the defrocked Maester.

    Khal Drogo

    Qyburn was another deliciously evil character IIRC.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 735 ✭✭✭Aceandstuff


    Qyburn. He wouldn't have died from a little cut like that.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Tough call, as I feel Qyburn was kind of wasted in the end, even though he was a fun addition, whereas Drogo made the Dany storyline bearable in the first season/book and it's Jason Momoa, so think I'll have to go for Karl Khal Drogo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,417 ✭✭✭Westernyelp


    Drogo was no more than a horse with a beard. Qyuburn get the vote


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,550 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    Qyburn, a right snake.

    Drogo a character that big chaps will be keeping in the memory by replicating for many a fancy dress party to come.

    Qyburn for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,494 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    TV show I have to go with Yara as the waif didn't do alot of anything


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 4,398 ✭✭✭mojesius


    Qyburn for resurrecting the mutant mountain.
    Also Drogo was a bit rapey at the start (sure tis his culture!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,496 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Qyburn - Drogo didn’t actually do a whole lot other than die


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,494 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Qyburn without him Jaime would have died when his sword hand was chopped off and we'd have no Clegan bowl


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 57,918 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Qyburn poisons the horselord and advances with a 6-1 victory


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 57,918 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Match 20:

    Just 9 matches including this one till we get to the second chance showdowns.

    This one will likely be a slaughter....
    Petyr Baelish aka Littlefinger
