nice bait
>>70649890
He's a meme character
>>70649890
I don't understand why he's so loved on this board when he was literally the shittiest candidate to the throne

Stannis is reddit
>>70651228
Well he kinda is:
>Marching in winter condition where starvation is real scenario, doesnt guard provisions and horses.
>losses provisions and horses
>still decides to continue and marches on against the all odds
>Lost the battle (imagine) and dies in the process
He could literally just kill himself, save his honor and troops. Instead of great Commander he will be remembered as stubborn idiot.
Nice meme right there.
Stannis is Jeb Bush tier. Always found him a sad try-hard character.
>>70651228
Who does he do better than? Renly never really fought any battles, but he prolly woulda beat Stannis otherwise no need for Shadowpsycho.
Stannis got thwarted by Lannisters twice, and then by Boltons. 5 seasons of all losses.
>>70649890
His claim to fame in the books besides not starving to death because Mace was incompetent was defeating the retard known as Victorian in battle. He defeated a retard in battle, congrats.
>>70651382
>Stannis is Jeb Bush
Kek it fits
>>70649890
Oh no, you just pissed off the redditors on this board.
Prepare to get swarmed by 200 angry replies.
>>70651377
The winter that's coming will last like 20 years.
That was his best opportunity.
book stannis and show stannis is different
<--- /got/ general
I think Theon Greyjoy might be a bit better of a commander as well, because at least he won a battle and held a castle for a while. Also, he didn't die at Winterfell.

ebin picture
Stannis does his duty even if its to his end.
Stannis is the Roman Soldier they found standing at his post in Pompeii who refused to run when the volcano erupted because nobody dismissed him from his post.
Its Glorious. He's like Ned Stark.
Ned is the anti-Borgia in Machiavelli's the prince. He lives an an ideolistic world and refuses to see the world as it is and play by the real world's rules leading to his downfall.
GRRM is clever. The show however, is retarded and unaware of any of this.
>>70651614
What book are you talking about? What chapter has Stannis winning the war and not dying?
>>70651695
Maybe in the books you have time to build up a loser character before you crush him back down to earth, but in a show, it's best just to kill losers off quickly.
>>70651377
>Attempts to lay siege to a fortress with literally no siege equipment of any kind
>>70651228
This is /tv/ faggot. Fuck off
How would have Stannis handled this?
>>70651915
He planed tp dig trenches, ,maybe to make mud balls from extra dirt, that will show em!
Keep it in one thread
>>70649890
im glad hes dead so they cant shit on his character any longer
i like him in the books but he got completely cucked by shit writing just like all the male characters in the show
>>70651853
>Quickly
>5 fucking seasons
Pick one.
>>70652246
Yeah, show kinda went to shit since 3rd season, honestly i cant wait to see the ending, cant stop watching since im so far into it, they are smart tho, feminists are pretty agressive fans, try to go on public forum and talk shit about the show, they will literally lynch you!
The wrong brother died in season 1.
>>70652046
He wouldn't have to deal with sea mines and booby traps, so he would have 0 casualties
Because the book version is fucking based and literally the best candidate for the throne.
>>70652424
dont worry the faggot died later
S T O I C
>>70651708
Well even if he loses the Battle of Winterfell, he beat the wildling army using superior tactics and soldiers, he retook deepwood mottle from the Iron Born capturing Asha in the process and enlisted the help from several northern houses
that alone puts him miles above his show equivalent who just decided to march on to Winterfell while staring at chess pieces on a map
>>70652729
This is why i hate book/game adaptations on big screens, chances they will fuck up some character and make opposite is 101%, Warcraft movie did it, LOTR did it, even fucking Hobbit managed to fuck up 200 pages books even tho they had 3 fucking movies to make shit right! Game of thrones doing the same, 2000 pages books tons of interesting story, they managed somehow to make bunch of episodes just boring fillers and spoonfeed you with story, fuck me, its impossible to enjoy something after you read the books.
- He's the tragic hero. Many Stannis supporters suspect that he wont win or even survive the series. He's not a simple boy of destiny like Jon Snow
he doesn’t have ridicules amount of plot armor like Tyrion, and neither has he powerful dragons like Daenarys. Whom we know will have a role to play at the endgame and therefore CANNOT DIE yet.
- He doesn't have Lannister gold or Tyrell charm. He's not popular or likable - to the people of Westeros or even much of the TV/book audience. He's probably as doomed as a character can be.
Even when most of both worlds stands against him, Dumbshit Drukendildo, creators of Game of Thrones seams to despite and misunderstand him. But he fights all the same.
And we here on this godforsaken chan will continue to support him. Not only, is he the rightful King by law. He is the only one who earned the honor to sit in the iron Throne.
By sitting in the small council, for so many years, Stannis ruled the Kingdoms with Jon Arryn, while Robert wasted the realms coin, he is well known on Westeros, its people and its laws.
He saved the realm from the free folk, and then saved the free folk from the white walkers. Acts of a true King.
- Finally, Stannis Baratheon was Ned Stark's pick for king. Ned died because of this endorsement, and he rightfully claimed that the crown belonged to Stannis.
If Ned Stark meant anything to you, and his honour worth the breaths he took to speak, then Ned's choice of Stannis for King has to have some weight.
