Reacting to Character Rankings in Game of Thrones 

everyone questioning bran‘s placement seems to forget that no one has a better story than bran the broken

Bran was missing for one whole season and i didnt even notice untill someone pointed it out.

The Wrap: Stannis is one of the worst main characters Anyone with a brain: A lie, take it out

I think people get "likeable character" mixed up with "well written character"

three minutes in and i'm already convinced people just throw the characters names in random number generators to decide those rankings.

laughing so hard at Grey Worm being #2

As the old saying from the North goes: "Brace yourself. The Casuals are coming"

Grey Worm at #2 had me wheezing

Theon lowkey had a character arc from beginning to end. Can't say that for most characters in season 8

whenever I saw Bran come up high I laughed, it became a recurring theme

Hot Pie at 84? How dare they, Hot Pie is the Shrouded Lord.

STANNIS AT 49.!! "These pardoned lords would do well to reflect on that. Good men and true will fight for Joffrey, wrongly believing him the true king. A northman might even say the same of Robb Stark. But these lords who flocked to my brother's banners knew him for a usurper. They turned their backs on their rightful king for no better reason than dreams of power and glory, and I have marked them for what they are. Pardoned them, yes. Forgiven. But not forgotten." That is not a speech of 49th character!

In fairness to the list that had Bran 14th, I think they may have only considered who were the "main characters" and then put Bran last.

The wrap's list is low key genius. Hodor's placement had me rolling. Then there was Qyburn on 5 and Grey worm on 2.

Olenna is Margery's grandmother, not mother. (EDIT. I realise you misspoke rather than being wrong)

imagine brann being in the top 5 for doing nothing

I feel like a character tier list would be interesting.

And no love for Meera Reed (both in the show and on these lists). She really deserved better.

That 2nd list caused my brain to completely erode 💀

Ned Stark may have only been in 1 season, like you said, but he had a lot of screen time. More so than characters like Robb Stark despite being in more seasons.

I honestly feel that the less they were in game of thrones the better the characters were. Oberyn, Bobby B, Robb, Ned, Tywin, Joff all had the advantage of not being dragged down by dogshit writing. Essentially if you made it out before season 4 they got away pretty unscathed. Comparatively characters like Jon, Tyrion, Arya were on the same level of great (if not higher) but then season 7 and 8 happened. Jaime Lannister has one of the best arcs and should therefore be an easy top 5 (at the very least top 10) slot. But if you consider the whole scope of the show, he plummets hard due to the 4th and 5th episodes of season 8. Think it's hard to make a list just based off of how no one really escaped the deconstruction of D&D. Also where is my boy Pod on these lists?

YOU DARE PUT STANNIS THE MANNIS AT 49

I don't like it when people dislike Sansa only beacause of her "passivity" in the early seasons. She's in a very bad situation and does the best she can do to survive, plus she also tries to help here and there when she's given the possibility like saving Ser Dontos for example by kind of outsmarting Joffrey.

Any character ranking without Tywin in top 10 is trolling us

Not gonna lie I would put Theon in at least top 3. Sure his arc takes longer than it should but Theon himself is probably the most complex character in the show and I find his story to be the most "real" if that makes sense. Also Theon was one of the characters who didn't suffered as much from horrible writing and he actually got a satysfying ending

Glad I know what websites to never take seriously when they make lists

Nobody has EVER encapsulated gaslight gatekeeper girlboss more than Olenna and Margaery Tyrell

bran technically is not a full character he is supposed to reach a climax in his story in the long night, but unfortunately we did not get that. but in reality -thanks to d&d- yes bran sucks.

these lists are something else. Putting Jaime, Tywin, The Hound and Ramsey in terrible spots isn't good. They are some of best GOT characters easily.

The real tragedy with Brenner, I feel, is that her best stuff is all internal monologue, because she’s so shy and insecure. That’s hard to translate onscreen, in the style of the show at least.

The Hound, first sentence: "He may not be the most loveable character" WTF?! He is literally loved by EVERYONE who tf wrote this nonsense??

How are Sansa and Bran higher than Theon?

They forgot to put the one true king, Stannis Baratheon, on the first place!

Any good top 10 would have to mostly consist of characters that *weren't* ruined by the later seasons.

For the best written character with the most complex arcs, Tywin, Tyrion, Jaime and Cersei should be an easy top 10 at least along with maybe Joffrey, Varys, Littlefinger... Favourite characters aren't necessarily the best written though and the more likeable ones get up there too. Like Davos, Jorah, Sam...

I know everybody is entitled to their own opinion, but what is with some of these takes? Do they just assume "more screen time" = "better character"?

A lot of these lists are basically just the characters that were in season 8.

I became a fan of the shown right when season 6 had just ended and had caught up in time for the season 7 premiere. I specifically remember wondering why people both online and in person kept referring to Daenerys as Khaleesi that late in the story 😅

An appropriate reaction to some of these lists: "Stop this madness in the name of your King!"

I did enjoy the reactions, for sure. I'd love to see more.

Tywin is my number one favorite character and the fact that he appears on none of these lists in any meaningful way is mindblowing

You should do more reactions, this video was entertaining af. Love your content!

I would love a character video series. Like “why is Tyrion so great?” and so on

Agree with you more and would love more reaction videos. Tywin as a character is a master class of his characterization.

I honestly think the reason Tyrion is loved is because of Peter Dinklage I mean in the books Tyrion gives you no real reason to love him but the way Dinklage portrayed allowed us to love him and understand him and his motives. Also I believe most audience members don't appreciate a good villain because they are a villain simple as that, especially the more mainstream movies. I mean James Gandolfini got a decades worth of people to love a vile man in Tony Soprano and I can't really think of a pure villain people love. For example, I love Doc Oct from the Rami Spidermen movies, and not because of the actor but his motivations and corruptions seemed so mortal that it could happen.

This is hilarious! Loved your reaction to the list at 6:02

I really love Theon in Dance with Dragons book. I think, he has the best pov chapters and best story of the book.

Stannis, Tywin, Jaime , Cersei, Tyrion, Littlefinger, Olenna, Oberyn, Joffrey , Robert, Ned , Robb, Catlyn , Roose , Ser Alliser are the characters i enjoyed on screen the most. Largely due to actors playing them (only counting seasons 1-4 btw)

This Video was the BEST IDEA. I just LOVE IT how Supercuts Delight destroys all those Bullshit Character Rankings in one go, and how the last part just has the Name *"Im losing Faith in Humanity"* . Bwahahahaha!

For the lists that don’t Include MY TYWIN LANNISTER (my 2 favorite, 1 is Lord Baelish) AND FOR THE LISTS THAT PUT STANNIS IN 49 AND FOR THE LISTS THAT INCLUDE BRAN I only have one thing to say: Look through your sins, For your Mind is dark and full of errors

Hot pie at 84?! Blasphemy! He went from pissing himself to conquering the kitchen and our hearts with how soft he was. Man was like a Chef Samwell

You grabbed my honorable mentions on your list. Good enough 😁

This is the most emotion I’ve seen from Supercuts delights.

Tywin is top 5 for sure, the man commands respect! Maybe Cersei, Jaime, Jhon, Danerys for top 5

8:04 “I need to Speedrun this list” Three seconds later: #19 Euron Greyjoy

19. Euron Greyjoy That is the funniest shit I saw today xD

The reaction to the second list is the funniest this channel has ever been lmao love it

I feel like this ranking is not just about characters's writing but more about what kind of feelings they inspire, nice, cute and badass characters are generally higher than others

You should do more videos like this one.

Your genuine malding is so entertaining.

Tyrion should always be bound to be #1… I mean he’s George’s favorite so he’s given all the best moments in the content George wrote

These lists prove that some people have opinions and some people are just wrong

Can we talk about how ellarias description says “commited one of the greatest and most upsetting murders” was myrcella really that sad like the girl had 10 lines

“Every scene the hound is in is entertaining as hell, but with brann I’m out here falling asleep and foaming out my mouth” 😂😂😂 Holy shit that joke caught me off guard 😂 was funny as hell

Dude the Skrim background music is so soothing

Loved this video thank you! Would love more reaction videos

I think that once (if) the books get finished, Ned will be a lot of people's favorite characters. One thing that the show lost with the R+L=J reveal was the lengths he went to protecting Jon

Fun video, thanks

This is easily your best video man. I think you’re a lot more entertaining without a script

You could also react to lists of the best moments or episodes of Game of Thrones.

Bruh at so many points I straight up forgot that Bran was even a character in the show

Bruh the Wrap’s list had me dying

dude i wish you linked these lists cause holy shit. i need to experience the trainwrecks first hand

3:43 Even tho the music is from Skyrim, that part sounds reeeally much like Daenery's theme

YOU for sure have missed dany's place amongst the greats, won george his biggest award, her chapters only, and she has one of the largest followings in modern history.

Olenna isn’t Margaerys mother. Its her grandmother. And Margaery also did alot of work on Joffrey to tame some of his craziness. She should’ve been Top 15 and Olenna should’ve been too 5 along with Tywin. Daenerys would’ve been Number 2 as well she was a much more compelling character than Jons one noteness! And season 1-4 Tyrion would be 1 but anything after that is a NO!

The thing about Bran's story is that except for one conversation with Meera, no one really brings up how f'd up his story is. He's this nice kid who likes to climb and dreams of being a knight. He gets pushed out a window and is paralyzed. Then every adult and near adult in his family leaves him alone with his little brother and some servants. They get invaded and he's forced to make adult level command decisions. Then he goes on a several year journey through hostile territory to meet a weird magical tree guy who overwrites his brain with the Encyclopedia Westerosica. Add in that in the books there's pretty good chance he ate his friend. HIs whole family is like, "He's a little weird now." Sure, it's been no picnic for them, but they're looking at a completely different person in their little brother's body and just accept it.

that second list legit looks like they just put all the characters in there and hit shuffle

I’m literally posting a video ranking game of thrones main characters as this goes up what is the timing

Can you make a video of your ranking of game of thrones characters? Would love to see it!

My top 3 are Tywin, Sandor, and Catelyn. Charles Dance's performance is one of the best in television history. He acted the hell out of that character, I completely share your love for him. The Hound is such a fun character, so complex and badass. And Catelyn, I just love her, her fierceness and determination, her willingness to admit her flaws, her undying love for her children and husband. One of my favorite scenes is when Cat throws her hands on the assassin's blade to protect Bran - I think about that scene when I need to motivate myself through pain. And when she cuts the throat of Frey's wife after Rob is murdered - holy shit man, it doesn't get much better than that! The raw emotion!

You got absolutely trolled lmao. Grey worm #2 hahahahaha

more reactions ! I love it

I kept waiting for this big Bran moment and it never happened.

Lmao this is hilarious🤣 part 2 bro pls

More reactions!!!!! That was funny!

Top 5: Varys, Tyrion, Littlefinger, Olenna, Tywin. Top 10 include: Bobby B, Cersei, Jaime, Oberyn and the Hound.

i personally didn´t like arya, sansa or bran very much..... don´t get me wrong their arcs and their plot had very much potential to be entertaining, but the way it played out, not so much. arya could´ve been very interesting with those faceless men but she got way too much plotarmor and then had her invincible killing spree and then plotarmor again in kings landing. sansa didn´t do anything proactive except trust littlefinger and undermine jon´s effort to fight the boltons. bran you already covered: did nothing.... hodor was more interesting than bran those 3 wouldn´t even come close to a top 30 list in my opinion

I just skipped to the next list when I saw Euron

I loved bran in the first seasons. His whole story felt like lord of the rings a little bit. But it just got soooo much worse

If you use the season 6 rule then you could also grant an exception for Dany being that high

I honestly don’t know if IGN has ever had a list that wasn’t bad or terrible. They’re really weird. That 2nd list HAS to be a troll. Lmfao I feel like HBO HAD to pay some of these sites to get Bran so high when they still shit on him. 😂

I felt your pain, that wrap list can't be anything other than trolling it can't be real I refuse. Any list that doesn't have Tywin in top 5 is irrelevant and just plain wrong :/

The second one is definitely a favorite over best characters

If Tyrion, Jon Snow, Arya, Jaime, Cersei and Ned are not in the top rankings then I am not interested

Your reaction to that masterbation comment had me dead 😂 Also that list was definitely trolling.

My top 5: 5.Olena 4.Oberyn 3. Daenerys 2.Tyrion 1.Tywin

Ironic how I started watching this video after I had just closed down playing Skyrim.... I'm hearing the music and wondering did I shut it down! :P

Ah I see you used my favourite soundtrack (wind guide you).

I think Oberyn should at least make top 15 imo. Not only is the character well liked but the acting is top notch and he oozes the aura of a refined character
