Fantasy Game of Thrones: Season 7, Episode 7 “The Dragon and the Wolf” rankings

Happy Game of Thrones Day everyone! It’s time to set your lineups for our fantasy Game of Thrones game for the last time this season.

For those who haven’t played yet (what’s wrong with you!?) I’ve constructed this fantasy game in the style of DFS. Each episode you draft a new team of five characters. Each character will have a price associated with them, thus preventing the ability to create an all stacked lineup that’s sure to win you all the fantasy points (though that didn’t stop Heath from just destroying all of us last week with a well timed Night King draft pick). There are obviously plenty of ways to score points and I’ll be writing up a recap article Mondays breaking down each episode and tallying final fantasy scores.

If you want to play, tweet your team of five to @FakeTeams or post it in the comments. And make sure you take your time building this lineup as we do announce winners, and someone needs to beat Heath.

Quick scoring recap:

5 killing random character
15 killing White Walker
25 killing known character
50 destroy an army/sack a city

10 pass out drunk
-10 character not being able to hold their liquor
15 post-coital wine
+5 to any eating/drinking if it’s been their first meal in forever and they attack food and drink with starving ferocity

The Players

Like I said above, each team will be constructed of five players and you will have 12 points to build your team. I’ve assigned points to each character based on expected screen time and on how likely it is for them to score points in multiple categories.

Oh man, this is a tough episode to rank because so far I’ve wildly underestimated the damage that Daenerys does on her dragons. Also, this episode could either be a bloodbath or just a casual party in which every one shares their feelings. That all being said, I think I feel pretty safe in bumping everyone of importance to a five point ranking. Choose wisely.
