Boardsies Decide - Game of Thrones Greatest Character

TheValeyard

tywin great actor.

Necro

The Hound advances 4-2. Tywin has to slum it with the commoners in the Second Chance Showdowns later.

Necro

Match 8:

Next up is an in-house affair with a Baratheon taking on one of his bro's bannermen. I'll give Robert's full title to amuse myself, and if y'all don't like it, tough. No one reads these blurbs anyways, ain't that right

Robert of the House Baratheon, the First of His Name, King of the Andals and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm.




VS


The Onion Knight, Ser Davos Seaworth

Sawduck

Tywin does not deserve to go out round one but The Hound is slightly better imo, sucks we had to see one go

Also Starring LeVar Burton

I do Necro, I do...

Has to be Davos for me, one of the best characters in both the show and the books

Sawduck

Ser Davos, probably the most noble character in the whole series

Lady Haywire

Davos, he did come up from flea bottom!

davetherave

Davos, he is one of the very few actual good guys. A smuggler with a heart of gold.

Ficheall

Davos. Actually cared about him surviving.

Davos. He had a good soul.

Necro

Davos blitzes the good King with a 6-0 whitewash.

Necro

Match 10:

This one I imagine will not be pretty. It's the attractive Greyjoy (well in comparison to the rest) taking on the Holder of Doors

Euron Greyjoy




VS


Hodor

Ficheall

Hodor hodor hodor, as the great man himself would have said.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Due respect to Euron (much better in the books) but have to go with Hodor because Hold The Door had me blubbering like a little baby at 3am in the morning when I watched live on Sky Atlantic...

Necro

That's the most true and in-depth reasoning I've seen so far Ficheall

I'd like to combine both ficheall and levars answers for my reasoning.

Hodor because Hodor Hodor Hodor and I cried so much over hold the door.

PsychoPete

Euron is a good villain, I thought Hodor would have done the decent thing and thrown Bran to the white walkers and saved himself so Euron gets my vote

Lady Haywire

Hodor, because I got all the feels while watching that scene

quickbeam

Euron because he was good craic presenting the Eurovision a few years ago and I liked him in Borgen too, and have a penchant for great Danes.

Collie D

Hodor. Didn’t like Euron - was like a cartoon villain.

Necro

Hodor leads this contest 5-2 with the time limit expiring at 15.59

Necro

And Hodor keeps that door held and progresses to Round 2

Necro

Match 11:

Will Tyrion 'know nothing' or can he vanquish the fiery headed one?

Tyrion Lannister




VS




Ygritte

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Tyrion is clearly just the better character here, but I do like Ygritte

Collie D

Tyrion Lannister - One of the stars of the show and definitely the brains of the operation.

PsychoPete

As much as I like Ygritte, Tyrion is an excellent character

Zaph

Tyrion, possibly the best character in the whole show.

TheValeyard

Tyrion was brilliant. So he gets my vote

Necro

Tyrion leads 5-0 with 30 mins remaining

salmocab

Tyrion, great character with some real depth

RobbingBandit

Tyrion the guy owned pretty much anyone he was on screen with.

Smash the beetles Smash em is still the funniest scene I've seen on a TV show.

Necro

And two more quickfire votes put him through to Round 2

Necro

Match 11:


Something tells me this may be a little closer. Both of these guys are awesome, but for very different reasons...

Beric Dondarrion



VS



Ramsay Bolton

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Ramsay Bolton because he's absolutely repulsive but in the best possible way

Collie D

Both good characters but has to be Ramsay Bolton - an absolutely vile character with no redeeming qualities who added so much more to the show than Beric.

RobbingBandit

Lightning Lord has to win this one

Ramsay Snow was an evil blemish on the story and show overall the sausage scene was pantomime villainous he was overkill I think I cheered when he got his.

PsychoPete

Beric is an excellent character and you couldn't keep the dude dead but Ramsey was an absolute monster and another one of my favourites

eldamo

Ramsey, he carried the show in terms of villainy for a season, must say I prefer his old man rats from the flats though.

Beric was good in the books, watered down a bit in the show to be fairer to thoros.

Lady Haywire

Ramsey, purely for this scene which still has me cackling every time I see it!

Ficheall

Beric, because Ramsey doesn't deserve to have anything easy.

Westernyelp

Ramsey. Pure Bastard

Necro

Ramsay cooks another sausage, this time it's Beric Dondarrion's. 6-2 the score there.

Necro

Match 12:

Well this one is a doozy. It's the Eater of Worlds VS the most prominent Wildling in the show.

The Mother of Dragons taking on the man that Giants fear.

The Nephew lover VS Brienne's bitch

Tormund Giantsbane



VS



Danerys Targaryen

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Tormund because Dany is the absolute worst

PsychoPete

Tormund for his impeccable taste in women

Collie D

I actually prefer Tormund but if he was missing the show probably wouldn’t lose too much. The same couldn’t be said of Danerys Targaryen

Ficheall

Vote for Danny, because she did the right thing in the end.

RobbingBandit

Tormund had great chemistry with every character he was paired with on screen loved him from the start.

Danerys was just pissed at everything all the time very bad character development second only to Sansa on my hate list on the show wasn't surprised how the character ended was surprised what she did to Sam's dad and brother.

Tormund for me here just for his scene stealing with The Hound

Khaleesi of course. Yes her character went downhill but those early seasons she was the best for me and Emilia Clarke is the most stunning woman alive imo.

Westernyelp

Tormund is Great. But not against Dani.

Dani T for the win
