You had, like, three scenes in season 1. Why did you pick a fight with the Kingslayer? These are the characters we think most likely to die in Season 7. We hope they all have their affairs in order.
1. The Mountain: 100%. The Mountain is the gift that keeps on giving. Every week we predict he’ll be dead, and every week he is.
2. Grey Worm: 75%. We don’t want to be right about this, but things are looking grim or Grey Worm. We’ve seen what a capable murderer Euron Greyjoy is.
3. Randyll Tarly: 60%. Randyll chose to join the Lannisters last week. Based on the trailer and the official images, Dany will likely go on the offensive “The Spoils of War,” and the most obvious target is the Lannister army, fresh from the siege of Highgarden. This puts Randyll directly in Dany’s crosshairs. Plus, he’s not a very nice guy.
4. Dickon Tarly: 55%. Dickon rarely seems to leave his father’s side, and his father is could have a close encounter with a dragon in his immediate future.
5. Yara Greyjoy: 50%. Yara survived last week, but she’s still in quite the pickle. Sure, Cersei has no specific grudge against Yara, but who the hell knows what’s going on in Euron’s mind?
6. Bronn: 45%. Bronn made his season debut last week, riding beside Jaime Lannister at the sack of Highgarden. And as we said, anyone around the Lannisters is in deep trouble.
7. Jaime Lannister: 40%. If Bronn is in trouble, so is Jaime. As a Lannister, he should probably have a bigger chance of dying than Bronn, but we’re given him the edge because he’s more important to the story, so his plot armor is extra-thick.
8. Theon Grejoy: 40%. Theon was rescued from the high seas last week, but hasn’t won any fans among the Ironborn. Should Theon head back to Dragonstone, he might end up a dragon snack.
9. Varys: 37%. Sure, Melisandre has gotten prophecies wrong in the past, but she foresaw Varys’ death last week, and that has us nervous.
