Game of Thrones

I don't think Jamie really meant that there were 3 people that he knew that could've beat him. More like admitting that he was very good and maybe on a few could best him. He does probably think Barristan would be one of them, but I don't think we've actually met any others that would be better (books or show) and still alive when Jamie mentions this. Obviously Dane would have been better than either Jamie or Barristan, but not alive when Jamie said it. So it's more of offering the possibility that others may be better, but very few.

Pretty sure he was talking about Selmy and the Clegane brothers.

Oberyn Martell might have been able to give him a good fight as long as he didn't let his emotions get the better of him like he did against The Mountain. Pretty sure he would not have been one of the guys Jaime was talking about though. On the show Jaime didn't seem to have any idea how good Oberyn was until the trial by combat.

It was common knowledge that Jorah Mormont was exiled from the 7 Kingdoms when he made that statement so don't think it would have been him. Not sure if he would have been a contender anyway.

I don't think Syrio Forrel was a house hold name in Westeros.

Thoros of Myr, Loras Tyrell, and Alliser Thorne are a few dark horse contenders. I can't really think of anyone else.

I thought of Oberyn, but was he a swordsman, or a pikeman? He fought the Mountain with a pike.

Not a master swordsman as far as I know. I don't recall the exact quote and if it specified swordsman or not. Jaime of course would have been using a sword but perhaps not necessarily his opponent. Either way he wasn't talking about Oberyn since he didn't seem to be very familiar with him,

He was a master sword swallower

If you haven't noticed, the Night King actor was changed last season due to scheduling conflicts with the original Night King actor Richard Brake. Brake portrayed the Night King in Seasons 4 & 5, and Vladimir Furdik portrayed him in Seasons 6 & 7.

Some of you may recognize Richard Brake from Batman Begins...his character killed Bruce Wayne's parents.

Somewhere in past seasons, Jamie was telling Brienne that there was maybe only three people that could best him with a sword. (Obviously before he lost his hand)

Anyone know who the three people he was talking about?

Arthur Dayne, Barrastan the Bold and Gerold Hightower. Jamie always considered Dayne the GOAT

 

[Inquisitor95]

Got my new digs. Ready for the rest of Season 7.

Arthur Dayne, Barrastan the Bold and Gerold Hightower. Jamie always considered Dayne the GOAT

He was using present tense when he made the claim so he was talking about guys that were still alive.

In the books, Selmy was the only living Knight he considered comparable

That may be so but the quote is from the show and he most definitely was talking about knights that were still alive.

T - 25 minutes.

Next week's episode is going to be freaking intense...

Next week's episode is going to be freaking intense...

That was my thought immediately after the preview finished.

"Next week..."

Does it matter if Rhaegar actually married Lyanna Stark?

 

[DarthVedder]

Does it matter if Rhaegar actually married Lyanna Stark?

If he did, Jon is the rightful heir and not a bastard, creating a conflict with Daenerys. he likely doesn't care about that and isn't interested in the iron throne.

So what does the scroll given to Littlefinger say?

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

So what does the scroll given to Littlefinger say?

It was signed by Sansa. But I couldn't read the rest. Guess I'll be using the pause button tomorrow night when I watch it again.
