SGB7777 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 the battle of the bastards is inevitably going to be an episode 9 moment. everybody is expecting jon snow to win, from the stand point of progression of the story , yes this seems like the most likely outcome. But dave & dan prefer shock value over story progression. i think it is very likely that ramsay will end up if not winning the battle at least killing off jon snow for good this time. I will now refer to the two game of thrones trailers for season 6. a quote from Tormund in the second trailer goes like this "i thought he was the man to lead us through the long night and i was wrong." this quote has not been said up to episode 8(the time when i write this). I assume he is talking about jon snow but their is a chance he is going to be talking about Mance raider. it would imply that whoever Tormund is talking about is dead this to me is strong evidence that jon snow dies but maybe wins the battle. jon is fighting against all odds therefore we assume that he is going to win it is a bit of a television trope that the underdog always wins if they are heroic ( this is why show stannis lost ). yes it is tedious to see ramsay win but HBO know people 'love' shock value as it gets the show trending on social media. in the books i reckon jon would win GRRM has said that jon will be around to the end. anyone else have thoughts on the outcome?

dbunting Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Do you really think that the show would change the outcome of this battle from the books, knowing how big it is? Saying that they will do this for shock value so twitter lights up makes no sense. The story is the story and changing something this big would likely not make sense, unless GRRM plans to have Jon die at this point also. I see them as losing the battle until the Knights of the Vale show up to save the day at the last minute. You say that GRRM said Jon is around until the end, do you have a reference?

ICEStark Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Tormund's Dialogue " "i thought he was the man to lead us through the long night and i was wrong." . it could be in reference to Bran Stark. Bran not Jon to lead the fight against the white walkers. And tormund gets to say it after the wall comes down in the finale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Deleted] Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Pretty sure Jon survives. Are we sure it was Tormund who said this? Could it be Davos talking about Stannis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreenBell Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 According to 2 people who leaked the outcome on reddit Spoiler Ramsay and Jon meet across the battlefield. Ramsay releases Rickon and tells him to run toward his brother. As Rickon runs, Ramsay starts shooting arrows up in the air one at a time that keep missing him. Jon starts galloping toward Rickon but just as he reaches him, one of Ramsay's arrow hits him and he dies in Jon's arms. Sansa is the smart one. She tells Jon before the battle that Rickon is already dead. Jon chooses to imprison Ramsay rather than kill him. and...

Smoke317 Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Spoiler The guy that spoiled True Detective season 1 had very similar spoilers and has been spot on. He says that Jon beats Ramsey nearly to death but he says that Wun Wun survives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are already reunited in the show. Well, since it's a description from an on set perspective it's likely that they weren't aware of events from early episodes of the season. Still, like all spoilers I'll truly believe it when I see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
