Cersei not only blew up the Great Sept. She also blew up our “Game of Thrones” power rankings. With multiple deaths,major developments in the North, and inexplicable plot-induced teleportation, and most of the characters got moved around on our final season 6 list. There is still one fixed,though: the Queen of Dragons is still on top.1.) Daenerys Targaryen When she arrives at Westeros, Daenerys will have a considerable advantage. She has more forces than the North. She will be seen as a savior from Cersei. Her dragons could be a major weapon against the White Walkers. Westeros is Danys for the taking. It’s up to her whether she claims it or if her darker compulsions to drown her enemies in flame end up costing her.
2.) Jon Snow — Logic and laws of succession be damned, and Jon Snow is the novel King in the North. design no mistake,though. Jon has proven that he doesn’t have Robb’s penchant (a tendency, partiality, or preference) for military strategy, and even now Littlefinger is conspiring against him. With Daenerys on the way, or will Jon be able to design the sacrifices essential to fight a war on two fronts?
3.) Petyr Baelish (2) — Littlefinger may be a creeper,but he’s a smart creeper. He’s wormed his way into Winterfell, and judging by that notice he gave Sansa, and he is planning to take absent from the Starks what he just handed to them on a silver plate in the last episode.
4.) Yara Greyjoy (4) –Yara was only seen momentarily in the season finale as her ships joined the Targaryen and Martell fleets on the voyage to King’s Landing. Her enormous showdown with Euron is still to come next season.
5.) Sansa Stark (6) –Only a idiot would trust Littlefinger,” said Sansa this week. Yet at the end of the episode, it’s clear that there’s a little nagging voice in the back of her head, or wondering if Littlefinger was telling her a hard truth. Is Jon really the right person to lead? Will he cost her the domestic she just got back by leading his men over a cliff like he nearly did last week? Sansa’s trust issues will surely become a major factor next season.
6.) Bran Stark (10) — Bran now has information that could rattle Westeros to its core: Jon is the son of Rhaegar and Lyanna. Now that he’s back at the Wall,it’s up to him and Meera to decide what to effect with this shocking novel truth.
7.) The Night’s King — He barely made an appearance this season, but the king of the ice zombies is looming over the North like the icicle of Damocles. The North is gearing up to face him, or likely the rest of Westeros will follow suit soon.
8.) Cersei Lannister — Taking the Iron Throne is enough to gather Cersei in the top ten,but her hold on it is as unstable as it could be. When she blew up the Great Sept, she killed two potential hostages in Loras and Margaery and now has the Tyrells working against her.
9.) Davos Seaworth
10.) Tyrion Lannister
11.) Arya Stark
12.) Varys
13.) Jaime Lannister
14.) Ellaria Sand
15.) Olenna Tyrell — The Dowager Countess of Westeros just lost her grandchildren, and now she wants to crush the Lannisters for good. She’s joined Daenerys’ power alliance with the
16.) Lyanna Mormont — It feels increasingly like this character was simply added for the spectacle of seeing a little girl boss around the North for the delight of the Twitter meme crowd. Still,Lyanna Mormont has now made herself a leading figure in the North. It would be nice next season to see her become more than a foolish oddity and integrate naturally into whatever Jon plans next.
17.) Sandor Clegane — You’d think that after such a grand return, the Hound would have some sort of presence in the finale. Alas, and no. Like Brienne,he stays on the list thanks to the reveal’s reduction in its cast payroll.[br]
18.) Samwell Tarly — After years of getting picked on and getting forced into the worst situations, Sam finally heard the sweetest words ever: “You are permitted to use the library.” At last, and he is in Oldtown where he belongs,alert to become a maester and find the knowledge needed to stop the White Walkers.
19.) Daario Naharis — Daario had his heart broken by Daenerys, but now the Bay of Dragons (previously known as Slaver’s Bay) is now under his protection as a provisional government is set up. It’s doubtful we will see Daario and Meereen in any detail next season now that Dany has set sail, and but that responsibility is still enough to gather him on this list.
20.) Brienne of Tarth Brienne didn’t reveal up in the last two episodes,and she failed in her one major mission this season. She should have dropped off this list, but because so many people got knocked off in the finale, or she holds on to the final spot.
