“Battle of the Bastards”
Ramsay rides to the front of the lines, leading Rickon by a rope. He brandishes a blade, holds it aloft, and then cuts his ropes. “You like games, little man? Let’s play a game,” he tells Rickon. He orders the poor kid to run across the battlefield. As he prepares to fire an arrow at Rickon, Jon rashly mounts his horse and rides out to collect his little brother. Just as Jon is about to reach him, an arrow pierces the boy’s heart.

I can understand why Rickon Stark ran straight. If you're in a life threatening situation with adrenaline running and you're starting to panic your instinctive response would be to run in a straight line.
Our lord Bolton is a master marksman <3
Why are people forgetting he was with Ramsay?! I bet the poor boy was scared as shit and also underfed so he was weak. I bet none of y'all and even me could run that fast and also not get hit by an arrow. Like if you all think you could have done better than him then prove it. I am honest I know to damn god I would not be able to run and not get hit.
Goddamn Prometheus School of Running Away From Things. Claimed yet another life.
Only reason I think this is brutal, is because Jon hasn't seen is youngest brother Rickon in years. And when he finally gets to see him, he is killed maliciously right before his eyes. That's his baby brother, and he died right in front of him.
You know what would've been funny, if he baited jon snow and killed him instead of rickon lol
ZIGZAG! WHEN YOU HEAR THE TWANG, RUN LEFT!
Now that I think about it, why the fuck did he ran in a bloody freaking straight line?
SERPENTINE MOVEMENTS ! DAMMIT!!!!
300 meters center mass shot with a medieval bow and a shitty arrow, I call bullshit
Didn't feel bad that he died. He didn't zigzag. The fucktard deserved it.
Ah Rickon, you died like you lived. pointlessly, with no bearing on the plot and no idea what is going on.
He dodges arrows like Roccat lol
And here Ramsay kills Draculas Son. He should have learned how to turn into a bat. Does everyone understand the reference?
This retard deserved to die for STUPIDITY LOL
i'm not even mad or sad. idiot would've died stupidly not long after even if he DID escape.
I know people are entitled to thier own opinion but why is everyone going so crazy about why rickon didn't Zig-zag? i mean the boy was running from a psycho who had thousands of men with bows and arrows and people expect him not to run as far from them as possible i mean do you people think ramsay is that shit of a marksman?
ZIGZAG RICKON, WHY WOULD YOU RUN IN A STRAIGHT LINE
