    No chance Arya survives she had her big moment ,she's a going to die ,
    I think she is going to get killed by the Mountain going after Cersei and the Hound finishes the Mountain, with Jamie finishing Cersei. Arya doesn't want to be a Lady or a faceless man. Besides finishing her list she doesn't really have a purpose.

    Gendry
    Aegon Targaryen.

    Dany will JUST check her so called worst impulses. But it will cost her her life. Jon eventually claims it in her honour.

    What he does with it is another question. Keep it or disband it or lessen its centralised power. No idea. Varys can assist him here.

    That redheaded Stark one, with the small fella, he'll come good for her at the end.

    Bran doesn't even want to be Lord of Winterfell so anyone betting on him being King of the 7 Kindgoms is wasting their money.
    Not wanting to rule was one of Tyrion's, Varys' and Douglas Adam's criteria for a desirable ruler.

    Someone who wants to rule usually wants power and is unburdened by the sense of responsibility.

    I wouldn't bet against Bran.

    Daario Naharis.

    He has more experience of leading than any of them at this stage and deserves Westeros more than the current crop of bumbling fools.

    I wouldn't rule out Bran as a figurehead with Sansa / Tyrion / Samwell forming a Small Council that actually does the ruling behind him.

    Obviously Snow. He makes 1980s Hulk Hogan seem beatable by comparison.

    Rescued by Dany when in the north facing the White Walkers.
    Rescued by Sansa in the battle of the bastards.
    Rescued by Arya in the battle of Winterfell.
    Rescued by Mellisandre when he was killed.
    Rescued by Ygrette when he was among the wildlings.

    He is more rescuable than unbeatable. (Always by women.)

    I get what you're saying but there is a difference between someone who is a reluctant ruler who makes a good one eg Tyrion becoming hand and actually being good at it or Jon Snow being convinced to become Lord Commander, and someone who has zero interest in it ala Bran. Bran is almost robotic at this stage and the only thing he embraces is his role as the Three Eyed Raven. He would not be a good ruler.

    Tyrion and Varys might like a such a disinterested figurehead who would leave governance to them or others such as Sansa.

    You forgot he was rescued by Benjen when he fell in the water and it was Ghost who warned him of the wights in the Lord Commanders quarters.

    I'm sure they'd love that but it would go against Bran's identity now to agree to it in the first place.

    Iron throne will be destroyed.

    Otherwise I believe Tyrion will claim the Iron Throne.

    I hope Tyrion dies at this stage tbh.

    Dany/Jon both die, so Drogon as Danys child will get the throne :p

    I expect Sansa to be involved in some sort of council rather than a throne.

    Sansa
    Gendry. So after all that happened we’ll be back where we started a Baratheon on the Iron Throne.

    First they came for the socialists...

    I'm going for the Hamlet ending where the main characters in KL all die and that Prince of Dorne emerges to rule! The nooooooth will stay the noooooth with Sansa in charge. About as happy ever after as it can get!

    Dany dies, dragons new master becomes Jon Snow because of bloodline, Jon takes the throne or gives it to Sansa and retires up north with the free folk.

    Thats my enhanced prediction :D

    I agree, she's earned the respect of the Northern lords, I think Jon will go North of the wall and live a simple life with Thormund and co (and Ghost!).

    BUT - I think they will change to a more democratic system, with each rulers of the seven kingdoms having a seat at the table. No one ruler.

    - Gendry in Storms End
    - Yara on the Iron Islands
    - Robin in The Vale
    - Bronn in Highgarden
    - Lewyn Martell in Dorne
    - Tyrion in Casterly Rock
    - Edmure in the Riverlands?
    Dunno about Kings Landing.

    At this point, is Danaerys' descent into madness not advanced enough that she will just wipe out anybody who disagrees with her? Is she going to wait for an opposition army to form itself (and for Sansa to make an appearance), or just crush the leaders instantly?

    She is effectively invincible in battle unless the dragon is taken out of the equation.
    And a sneak attack/poison/similar isn't something in keeping with the remaining characters really.

    So, I'm not sure how it will all pan out and with 1 episode to go, I suppose credit is due to the writers for that.
