Did they do him justice?
>>69270821
STANDING HERE
desu I kind of liked the fight scene
GEE ARTHUR, HOW COME YOUR MOM LETS YOU HAVE TWO SWORDS??
They made him a meme
this is a travesty
>literally only 2 of the kingsguard
the fuck man?
DABID didn't even fuck the episode up too much
TOJ was shit though
>>69270973
I REALIZE
Not at all
>dual wield
top meme, bravo d & d
>>69271079
double swords is literally the ultimate meme, it's worst than sandsnakes fighting anyone imo
Absolutely not
>>69270821
why does he have two swords? does he lose them often?
Dayne as a character was alright but >dual wielding and overall the scene was shit
>>69270821
They managed to make the best fight of all times into an alley brawl. Even Ned stopped being the honorable Eddard Stark.
>>69270821
Yeah it was fine
>>69271117
because no more targyren reign
>>69271311
into a meme alley brawl**
>>69270821
He took on 4 swordsman at once and beat them handily.
We all knew that Reed was going to backstab him once he had Ned on the ropes.
I would have liked to see more from Dayne, but he owned the fight which was pretty cool.
>>69270821
Ned and Jamie is still the best fight of the series so far. The shoe went full George Lucas with the duels.
I liked it, but I'm not an autistic book fag lmao

I know I think that is why I liked it. You know kind of how like something is so bad it's entertaining? That's what it was like.
It offends me so much because of how inconsequential it is. What difference does it fucking make if he has 1 sword or 2, to D&D? Like why does he have to have 2 swords? Is it as simple as differentiating from the books that they are ADAPTING? Why deviate from something if it's so simple and changes nothing about the plot? Seriously having trouble finding the logic here.
first for SOMEONE POST THE LEAK
It's a shame that HBO are hacks that want you to download their HBO go bullshit
>>69270821
I think so, i don't mind him using two swords considering he was fighting five of them at one point. Even if he's normally a single sword specialist.
>>69271301
How was it shit? Care to explain?
I think normies may have liked it.
But combat sports, hema, history, etc autists like me certainly hated this shit.
>duel wielding
>all the fighting coreography
fuck
>>69271301
Senpai, how can you know whether Dayne as a character is alright? All we know from him is from second-hand character accounts.
Yeah as best they could with such limited screentime, if they kept going on about how class he was it would have been outright pandering. I think they struck a nice balance for show and book fans 2bh

This place is worse than /v/
>>69271512
using two swords don't make you any better at fighting multiple opponents ffs
>>69271167
Probably removed Whent then realised they had an extra sword so they gave it to Dayne.
How do you fuck up both Arthur Dayne and Euron?
Bookfag here. Still fucking loved it.
>>69271393
this
Even though the fight was sort of stupid, at least they still made Dayne seem like the GOAT
Pretty good, definitely gave his fighting skills justice. And they showed he was killed in some bullshit way by Howland Reed, which was a good choice.
>>69271584
>and do they really expect us to accept that that was Rickon?
Congrats, retard. It's the same actor. He grew up since season 3.
I want every retard that ranks duel wielding to catch a stroke.

>Make him look like some plebe who dual wields
Dear god no. Dual wielding was literally the worst thing they could've done to Dayne.
>>69271706
You think I don't know that, faggot? Cast someone who looks, hell, I dont know, not 13?
>>69271643
nepotism
The ToJ scene was pretty damn good and anyone seriously complaining about it is an unpleasable autist who should just stop watching the show.

This was a better episode than the last two.
Dual-wielding Dane and all.
>>69271783
>the best swordsman ever
uses a meme technique that is as effective as wielding the sword with your feet
I don't get why they cut out Oswell Whent and/or Gerold Hightower. Didn't have enough money for a second extra after the coke binge?
>>69271419
yeah, a 6
>>69271620
How does it not, where you could strike out at one opponent before now you could strike out at two ambidexterously.
You neckbearded couch warrior fuck
>>69271807
Pretty much. Fuckers can't just sit back and enjoy. Nothing is going to be as satisfying to the reader as how a reader imagines it.
Why is young ned so ugly?
>>69271419
felt like a filler episode
not much happened at all
>>69271807
This. The choreography was great imo and, even if dual wielding fights are not possible in real life, it's fiction for christ sake
>mfw one off character dual wields sword in my fantasy show where there's a knight who's been brought back from the dead and magic swords and shit
Literally jumped the shark. Who else here has /dropped/ GoT? Fuck this cuck show.
>JUST
>my father beat him
Did Ned really claim he beat him in the books? I don't recall that
>>69270821
Him beating six people alone was too much, and Ned was too good. But I did not hate the scene
Heres the fight for everyone who didnt see it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDOWgbo1ho8
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gj-kjNQS7mw
>>69270821
Yes. It makes sense that the fight wasn't actually as epic as it was told. Nostalgia does that to peoples memory
Keep it in one thread.
What kind of fight were you marks expecting? It was a 7v3/7v2 fight not some pitched battle.
It makes sense that it was quick, Dayne was that good and the Northerners that bad, only winning with some Dusty finish by that frog manlet.
Not a bad scene senpai, not everything is shit because your life is.

Dude looked like a beast and would have killed them all if Reed didn't use his trap card.
I don't know what people were expecting if they were disappointed. Dayne wasn't magic, just a really awesome swordsman. And it was a really cool battle.
>>69271117
>>69271234
There is literally nothing wrong with dual wielding swords. It's at least more practical than double daggers
>>69271914
yeah and if you hold a sword in your mouth you can strike one more time too
>>69271948
No. His personal thoughts were he was fucked without Reed, and he never said anything about the tower of joy to anyone
>>69271951
His companion had beaten one before he got knifed in the throat.
4 is more realistic considering he was the greatest swordsman in the realm.
>>69271935
this
everyone forgetting Anguy?
>>69271774
>Being this much a nit picky faggot that you complain about an imaginary race, something so insignificant it has no bearing on the plot.
Man children everyone.
>>69271948
He said that Reed helped him, but never mentioned that he did it like a bitch.
>>69271783
>literally the worst thing they could've done
Worse things:
>sword of the morning is Marthyr Dayne, proud daughter of Starfall
>Dayne literally just runs away crying when he's outnumbered
>Dayne comes out charging all COME THE FUCK AT ME CUNTS and gets insta one-hitted by the first jobber he tackles
>Dayne offers Ned sex in exchange for leaving him alone. Ned accepts.
>Dayne wins the fight but throws all eleven of his swords away and allows Reed to kill him because he knows Ned's cause is just.
There are like hundreds and hundreds of far, far worse things than dual-wielding, friend.
>>69271784
So he was age-appropriate before but now looks too young despite looking older...
You're not smart.
>this thread is full of autism
its low fantasy niggers - people can dual wield and it was a neat scene fuck
>>69271485
not only that but he had a significant weapon in the books so its not like they just gave him another sword they left out something that actually mattered somewhat
there's no weight behind the blows
>>69271807
Dual Wielding and Double Daggers have been a running theme in the series, to do it to someone as simple to translate as the Sword of the Morning is symptomatic and bizarre and shows that the creators are simpletons.

>Let's just give him duel weilding swords
They didn't do him justice but the scene wasn't that bad until the fighting started.

>>69271774
The show was altered from the very first scene, dumbass.
>>69271485
Because normies don't fucking care about how faithful it stays to the source material, and to normies two swords looks more exciting than one badass fucking sword like Dawn. It's all about pandering.
>Dual wielding is bad or impossible to do
lol no you autists
Dual weilding has been used by Edo era samurai who dueled hundreds of opponents, and especially by Miyamoto Mushashi.
It has also been depicted in European sword training manuals like that of Hutton.
>>69272080
>Dayne offers Ned sex in exchange for leaving him alone. Ned accepts.
Classic DnD right there
>>69272012
this is the most retarded equivalency i've ever heard
you guys are really fuckin autistic about a guy using two swords
>>69272379
That sentence is perfectly understandable. Are you retarded or something?
dual wielding existed in historic but with certain weapons and certainly not in the way it was used in the show, that was the meme ninja movie shit rotating swords and shit
in reality people would side/diagonal posture with one lead weapon forward and another side weapon back
>>69272324
>unimportant
It looks like shit
Duel wielding swords is a15 year old "badass" meme
Shit, just give him a legendary sparkling sword like the books and it gets the same effect
Worst part about the fight was how forgettable it will be
>>69272322
I'm more concerned about Emilia Clarke's weigth than her eyes. What happened to that woman?
When Bran's flashback scene is the highlight of a Game of Thrones episode, you know you just watched shameless filler.
>>69271721
If one thing is Ned known is for his honor as a man, they all said his only fuck up in life was betraying Catelyn, and even then he raised the child, taking responsability for his actions.
With this scene they turned him into a liar by telling a story of the fight that didn't actually happened since he never defeated Dayne: he was going to lose, but got lucky because Dayne didn't looked at his back (he defeated easily his oponents and fell for that?? wtf) and then Ned killed him without saying something about it, just took advantage, like any cheating fighter. That was Bronn's behaviour, not Ned's.
It changed the character and it was underwhelming overall since this was the best fighters of the realms at their prime fighting against each other. Even Selmy was there
>>69272164
>those rich, critically-acclaimed and wildly popular simpletons who are among the most successful in the world at their chosen profession
>versus
>me, a fat neckbeard autist who's annoyed they left out a possibly magic sword that may possibly affect the overall plot of the books in some minor way but more than likely won't at all
I mean, I'm not going to say they didn't leave out some details about Dawn. But they did it because they don't give a shit about Dawn, not because they're idiots. Maybe they know something you don't? Maybe Dawn isn't as important as you think or hope it will be?

>>69272476
I have a dream that soon I'll win the lottery and buy a controlling interest in HBO. I'll then force a soft reboot for Season 7-8 so that every single character will always be holding a sword in each hand. I'll ensure there are plenty of flashbacks to earlier seasons, which will be reshoots with the characters each holding a sword in each hand.
I'll have Bran flash back to himself flashing back to the ToJ (he will be holding a sword in each hand both in the present-day and in the flashback) and Dayne will be holding two swords with a third one tucked between his legs. This will make him so badass that it takes both dual-wielding Ned and dual-wielding Howland Reed to take him down. Ned and Reed will remark to each other afterwards about how badass and incredibly effective this triple-wielding tactic is, and how close it came to defeating them.
>>69271311
Thats the point tho. Stories that are told are never how they actually went down
>>69272545
Does she still do stuff at all or did /pol/ scare her straight?
>>69272356
Yeah, and Bran looks 22. It's a little late for recasting any of those kids.

>b-but this is a tv show based on fantasy! It has magic and dragons!!
Thow weapons of the same lenght is detrimental for attacking purposes. You also need to defend in a point and the size of it makes it impractical.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZNZyhNFSaE
>>69271552
If you fell for the hema meme, then you must know that these people don't have any greater knowledge than what historical sword manuals tell us. For all we know pic related was happening all the time, but did it? We don't know.
And newsflash dual wielding has been depicted in such manuals.
>>69272557
Either Ned lied to protect Reed's honor and image. (We won because Reed backstabbed Arthur in the back while I was fighting him).
Or maybe NO ONE actually asked him what happened there and everyone just assumed that Ned won. Can't lie about a victory if nobody asked you about it.
>and then Ned killed him without saying something about it, just took advantage, like any cheating fighter. That was Bronn's behaviour, not Ned's.
He was in hurry, bro, her sister was dying. No time for farewell speeches or regrets.
>>69270821

Bran is recognisable at least, but when was the last time we saw Rickon? Because if it wasn't for that wildling lady standing there I sure as shit wouldn't have known who it was.
>>69272846
Starting to think the spoilers I've been seeing around are true because of this episode, but they say there's a Dany nude scene which we know couldn't possibly be true, especially since this episode had the perfect moment for it and they still didn't go for it.
FINE, I DIDN'T WANT TO SEE THOSE FLABBY TITIES ANYWAY FATTY PRUDE, WE'LL ALWAYS HAVE CARICE EVEN THOUGH HER POST-PLASTIC DURGERY FACE LOOKS KINDA WEIRD NOW
>>69272999
My favorite part is how they think surrounding Arthur and attacking him 4v1 was okay but stabbing him in the back wasn't.
>>69272809
>Duel wielding greatswords
Maybe if they had been regular swords it wouldn't have looked silly. The fight overall was really shitty.

>Dany nude scene
It's gonna be a body double anyway.
>>69273047
I fucking hate reddit
>>69273047
They enjoy things I guess.
No.
In the books you heard about him at several points spanning across multiple books.
Ned talks about how he was the greatest swordsman ever and he implies they only won at the tower of joy through some form of treachery (7 vs 3)
Jaime talks about him dueling the smiling knight and how honorable he was (Dayne let him get a new sword after he beat the shit out of it with Dawn).
And he reads about his exploits and honors in the white book.
In the show, you hear next to nothing about him. Why should viewers care about someone that they don't know and dies in 3 mins?
>>69272377
I know right
>>69273047
When Trump wins - Reddit is first to go
>>69273047

>>69273206

If you ever actually pick up a sword in your life, you will immediately understand why dual wielding is retarded.
>>69272557
Howland killed Dayne, Ned just put him out of his misery, Howland being the Stark ass kisser that he is let Ned take the credit and used swamp magic on anyone else who said different

TBQPH the best part of this show has always been the small council and the political intrigue happening in King's Landing. This episode went out of its way to remind us that we won't be getting any more of that in the future.
And don't get me started on the Mereen small council. I guess this scene was the writers poking fun at themselves for forcing two completely bland, uninteresting non-characters on us? Sort of?
>>69272225

By having Arthur Dayne wield two regular longswords like some DEXfag it completely undermines his entire character.
He's supposed to be reminiscent of King Arthur wielding a powerful and mysterious ancestral sword.
It isn't the worst thing ever, but it is another dumb, small mistake that DnD have made that has progressively worsened the quality of the show since season 1.

double daggers allow you to attack quickly as well as defensively parry with the other hand.
two longswords would be ungainly and useless in battle.
>>69273495
I'm not one of these salty anons, I actually thought the episode was good. But mate, they fucked up Tower of Joy
>>69273522
Same here bud. People who whine about the show yet watch it every week are fucking losers who have nothing better to do than redirect their sad frustration about their own lives.
Tonight we saw incredibly well-produced depictions of scene after scene of moments we've been waiting to watch brought to life for years.
>>69273863
double daggers is also a meme, you're not helping
>>69273854
NEVER reply to me again unless you're contributing to the board, degenerate showpleb
Tonight's episode was the Batman v Superman of GoT.
>>69273648
The difference between a grown woman and a 16 year old girl is much less than that of a prepubescent boy and a 13 year old one. Keep grasping at those straws though. I bet you didn't even read the books.
>>69273854
You're literally a faggot.
>>69273724
>it completely undermines his entire character.
Bro, he barely has a character. And I don't mean in the show. We have a couple of reminiscences of him and a dream sequence from a concussed, milk-of-the-poppy-addled Ned. That's it. They could have had him in a ballgown trying to distract Ned by pointing behind him and then running away and it wouldn't "completely undermine his entire character" because he's barely more than a couple of fucking sentences as it stands.
>>69273868
What would you have liked to see different?
I'm happy with what we've got, but I still wish they cast 3 kingsguard.
Also ned comes across as pissed off as fuck for some reason.
>>69272466
You're not a man if you can't dual wield your own dick
I know I can. God gave me a big pecker, so I must probably be him for all I know.
>>69273906
i know its a meme. But they are far more practical (when used by a skilled swordsman) than two longswords.
>>69273906
Well parrying daggers were real. That's about as close to dual wielding as reality gets.
>>69273950
No, that was the premier. The fact this had no Sand Sneks in makes this the Iron Man 3 of GoT
it was dumb as shit but I enjoyed it
>>69273937
>showpleb
Why the fuck are you even here, retard? Oh yeah, it's because /lit/ doesn't consider ASOIAF literature.
>>69273473
Yes, it has never been brought up in the show before. I take that as confirmation.
>>69273818
I don't remember that part at all.
>>69273854
>glow in the dark sword
It's a fucking white greatsword made out meteoric iron you ignorant fuck.
>>69274034
Congratz on being the target audience I guess
>>69273818
No it's not. The only thing Ned says is that he would have died if it hadn't been for Reed. Nothing about magic or anything, that's just speculation.
>How dare they make him dual wield!
>I was expecting something more realistic like a sparkling dildo sword!
Bookfag bed-wetters are getting BTFO in this thread.
Where is the total faggot who said that Dayne wouldn't have 2 swords? Why are you so quiet you little faggot?
>>69270821
The only problem is that it was too short. Fucking lazy raven.
But I understand he wanted to be in his comfy tree.
>>69273490
An ornate greatsword would have been infinitely better than that duel wielding faggotry.
>>69273870
fucking cuck lol
>>69272054
>so insignificant it has no bearing on the plot
>two principal characters are valyrians
>valyrian dynasty has ruled the kingdom for centuries
>show is about the fallout from these valyrians dying out
>insignificant
Shut the fuck up, cunt.
>>69273863
Thanks for the euphoric spergasm of how you feel a trained sword-fighter would handle the situation.
Arthur Dayne is a fictional character, and within that universe he is the greatest knight whoever lived, who the fuck are you to criticize the way he fought?
He dual wields longswords more effectively than the way you text multiple homely girls "Hello m'lady".
So what the fuck is Bran going to do? Is this all leading up to one of the Starks saving the world/becoming the Winner of the Thrones ?
>>69274094
Shut the fuck up nerd. Do you realize how autistic you look like right now? Nobody wants to see a fucking light bright sword.
>>69274118
>Bookfags are being btfo because the show sucks
Yeah you sure showed them.
>>69272476
It was never done, because it's goddamn fuckdumb.
>>69274122
He was humiliated and shamed in front of dozens of people. He probably went to listen to sad music in another tab and try to reassure himself that posting anonymously means it didn't really matter.
>character is famous for using a greatsword called Dawn
lets make him double wield some longswords for no good reason
>>69272984
You are an idiot scola in the video himself says that it has been used historically.
>Thow weapons of the same lenght is detrimental for attacking purposes. You also need to defend in a point and the size of it makes it impractical.
The point of two throw weapons, is that in the hands of a master you can alternate between attack and defense using BOTH swords.
So you would be using both hands in an ambidextrous manner, both hands can either attack, both can defend, or one can attack and the other defend.
Assuming we are talking about swords vs swords and not sword vs spear, the length doesn't matter. Since the length of your sword matches that of your opponent.
>>69274176
>Shut the fuck up nerd. Do you realize how autistic you look like right now?
Oh the irony that you would even put these two sentences next to eachother.
>Nobody wants to see a fucking light bright sword.
So a white meteoric steel sword is somehow "light bright"? Kill yourself.
>>69272575
>those rich, critically-acclaimed and wildly popular simpletons who are among the most successful in the world at their chosen profession
lmao
>>69273232
Says the guy on 4chan.
Imagine how pissed the bookfags are going to be when Tubby McRR dies and the show's ending is all they get. Gives me a boner just thinkin' about it.
A thought has occurred to me, do you think it possible everything to do with Rickon being captured could be a ruse?
>Umbers still actually loyal to the Starks
>devise a strategy to get in close to the Boltons
>no kneeling, kissing, or swearing oaths to the boltons
>Rickon and Osha "pretend" to get captured
>kill a black wolf and give its head to Ramsey as a show of proof
>Shaggydog is still in hiding
>Ramsey being Ramsey sees wolf head and doesn't bother to really look any further
Mind you this all seems like to deep a plot for D&D to typically do but would be funny if it came to pass
>Ghost heavily outnumbered by Ramseys dogs
>suddenly Shaggydog to even the playing field
>>69272575
>Maybe Dawn isn't as important as you think or hope it will be?
yeah lets just show this guy without his signature weapon lol
like having a Camelot program with no excalibur.
>>69272379
>I can't read
You're a sad faggot.
>>69273990
He would have been pissed, he was going to rescue his sister from Targ fucking shits. The only recount of the ToJ we get is from his fever dream, so he probably remembers it wrong.
<-----/got/
>>69274273
how are people supposed to take a guy nunchakoing two fucking longswords around you fucking retard
how is that any better
>>69274229
At the end of the day. Rational heads prevailed and they realize that a sparkling sword is dumb as fuck,
Deal with it fucc boi.
>>69274210
No, he says it's unpractical and wasn't used outside of ceremonial duels. Fuck right off, sperglord.
>>69274282
If umber is as loyal to the Starks as he claimed then I could see that. But then he wouldn't really have needed to bring Osha with him.
>>69274343
It could have been an ornate sword for all I care. I didn't want faggy duel wielding.
>>69274343
>a sparkling sword
At no point is it said that Dawn "sparkles." It's pure white you ignorant piece of shit.
>fucc boi.
Kill.
Yourself.
>>69274118
You're a retard. Yes, there is dragons and magic and shit in the series, but combat has been pretty much realistic for the most part otherwise. So suddenly having a dude spinning around two longswords like a dumbass just doesn't work, even if Dayne is the best swordsman in the land or whatever. It looked fucking silly.
