@@dusanradin5868 Aiel are excellent runners. They can maintain running for great distances, and they can keep with people on horseback. So, honestly, shitting your pants is probably the better strategy. Maybe the smell will keep ‘em at bay.
The Aiel were born in the waste, and learned to fight for everything they wanted. Unless you're a channeler, you're most likely to end up a warrior. Ahvienda is just one Aiel, imagjne an army...
Now thats a fight, sorry, dance. It has some kind of magic quality about it, something I also expected, but sorely missed, from the swordmasters. One point though, I thought Aviendha would be taller
"I am Aviendha of the Nine Valleys sept of the Traidad Aiel. Far Dareis Mai. My water is yours." When I heard that in the TV series, my eyes were full of tears! I am really a fan of WoT book series, I read it several times. In the moment when I heard Aviendha, that was the first time I really FELT that this is WoT TV series. Before that moment, I knew that, but I did not feel it.
I think the actress is doing a fantastic job so far. I'm still a bit worried about what they did to change her appearance from the books though. Even the show itself has made it clear that Rand looks like an Aiel, and specifically his red hair. Hopefully, when we see more Aiel, that line somehow makes sense again
You being worried says more about you than the series. Must be nice to worry about things so frivolous. How easy is your life to feel some sorta way about a book character not looking how you want her to look.
@@JabroniClue I already knew this would come up, and no. What concerns me isn't that they made that change, but that they're inconsistent with things they themselves set up. So calm down, and ask yourself why you feel the need to call a concern for consistency "frivolous", and why you feel the need to downplay that as me wanting her to look different
Doubtful about the consistency part atleast region and blood ties wise. They've already kinda thrown the bathwater out the window with that one. But the show is so far well written enough to ignore these things. Shrug. Personally I was happy to see an actually well choregraphed fight scene overall in the series. I swear these scene are dying out with tackless actors/actresses/ directors when it comes to fighting and stunts.
Perrin is the most useless character in this show. This dude is an absolute joke. That fact they made Aviendha op makes him look even worst. They destroyed his character.
her scene is badass but appearance is so far from the book. To be honest, I secretly hoped she was just a random Aiel till her tell Perrin her name though it worked out pretty okay. Very strong choice from the show though
Aiel aren't Captain America super soldiers, they're just well trained competent warriors, and Perrin should be holding his own, not relegated to random sidekick. They should've hired a fight choreographer who wasn't from the WB.
What a bizarre complaint. In the books Aiel fight and win against wetlanders even when vastly outnumbered. She also doesn't have Captain America powers. Her whole fighting style in this scene revolves around using momentum and controlling her opponent's movements to make up for the fact that she's likely not a match for any of the men in raw strength. Perrin has had zero weapons or unarmed combat training so I don't know why you are expecting anything out of him going into a fight against a whole squad of professionally trained soldiers while being unarmed himself. He's not a badass fighter in the early books either, staying alive and not getting in Aviendha's way IS holding his own for someone with his lack of experience.
