Game of Thrones – VARYS PLAN EXPLAINED! (1×05 “The Wolf & The Lion” Analysis)

The rivalry couldn't be avoided because of Ned's stupidity at Robert's rebellion

The conflict was unavoidable. The events were set in motion by Little Finger. If both sides avoided conflict, more schemes would have been hatched to pit the Starks and Lannisters against each other.

2 in a handful of weeks? yes 😀

ANY war (in real life too) is avoidable. But stupid people rule the wars.

Unavoidable, even if the Starks stayed in the north the Lannisters would have eventually looked to control the entire continent.

If Ned wasn't speared and one of them died, Jamie or Ned? (Ned most likely) then what..

honor insist green cause lay publisher hard direct opinion.

Damn. That was deep. I love it.

I love these! Also I miss Ned 😢

It would have bee avoided had Catalyn Stark knew her place and kept her yap shut…her input of incorrect information was the catalyst for the War of the 5 Kings and being away from Winterfell allowed Theon to come and sack it

YEEESS keep doing this videos

Sadly, it was avoidable, but that won't matter. The Lannisters and only the Lannisters will pay for their wrongdoings. When does Arya pay for the people she killed, like that serving girl, to get near Walder Frey and his sons? When does Daenerys pay for all the small folk who will likely be victimized by the Dothraki while they're in Westeros? King Robert was right. The Dothraki in Westeros would do what they did in Essos. Their geography changes, not their culture. Yet Daenerys is fine unleashing them to get herself the throne. The same goes for Jon and the WIldlings. Nope. It's only the Lannisters that must watch their house crumble. Sad.

Keep continuing the review…

Game of Thrones doesn’t care about horses

YESSSSS I LOVE THESE!!!

Keep 'em coming!!! As i re-watch the series, I love watching these in-depth episode reviews. (More and faster please!!!)

No. Its not avoidable. Jamie pushed Bran from the tower in the first episode. Not sure if Cersei told Littlefinger to blame Tyrion to try to have him killed by the Stark's, and because of that her father would go to war with them. Killing to birds with one stone type thing or if Littlefinger took that opportunity to create chaos so he can climb that ladder???

Well done! Loving these so much.

I open the video and first thing i do is "like" the video.

OR !!! Gendery is not a bastard and the legitimate air , that was smuggled out of the red keep and reported as dead , to keep Robert's children off the throne , and a full blood Lanister on it .

Great job! The war could have been avoided. It was Catlin’s fault it started. Had she not taken Tyrion, perhaps they could have worked it out in court?

13:57 "when Ned drops his Hand of the Kingpin on the table," 💪💪
Eddard is pretty boss ('till he gets captured and executed)

Of course it was avoidable. Starks could have stayed in the north. Cersei would have still killed Robert, resulting in a Lannister on the throne. The war of the 5 kings becomes the war of the 4 kings. Starks, believing Joffery to be a legitimate king, likely join the crown in fighting Renly/Stannis. Varys is happy, as this war weakens the forces of Westeros, thus making a return of the Targaryens easier, either through Dany/Drogo, Aegon/Dorne, or some combination thereof.

Littlefinger still remains a wildcard. His best play is to control the north by controlling the Eyrie. With Kat still alive, he still has a path toward this. He'll try to arrange a Arryn/Sansa marriage and a Stark/Lannister conflict. That might turn into another red wedding, with Arryn and some Starks dying. Enough to put Sansa at the head of both kingdoms. If he can blame that on the Lannisters, and support that lie with info on old Jon Arryn's poisoning, Cersei's murder of Robert, Joff's illegitimacy… maybe the conflict isn't avoidable…

What about the parallels of Ned getting stabbed in back (of his leg) by a Lannister soldier while duelling Jamie just as Howland Reed stabs Arthur Dayne in the back when duelling Ned.

Well in the books . . . Young Griff never goes with Tyrion in Mereen. Young Griff landed in Westeros. He follows what Tyrion tells him before he goes to that brothel and gets carried off by Jorah. Sorry to be annoying about this.

Give me 10/20 good men… Everyone talks about those good men, but we never actually se them in action.

AWESOME analysis! This was a great episode…I still weep over Eds death

Do a list of the best movies and tv shows in 2017

Perhaps Varys reported on Daenerys's pregnancy in order for Robert Baratheon to order her assassination. No matter how inept the mere attempt, which Varys hinted to Jorah, would incite Khal Drogo to rush his invasion of Westerod

I do think that the conflict between them was unavoidable because I think Cersei would’ve viewed anyone Robert trusted the way he trusted Ned as a threat.

Gonna have to watch after work

Yes all Ned had to do is refuse to serve Robert.

MORE MORE MORE

I love your commentaries but can we stop with the 'Robert started a war for Iron Throne bc Lyanna' stuff? If Aerys had behaved like a normal person Robert would have swallowed his pride and watched his betrothed being his queen for a lifetime.

A Dothraki hoooooorde!

Please keep these coming

Love your reviews! 😊❤️

This needs more frequent uploads

Internet explorer?

Yesss back with another episode! Please do more 😁 butttt quicker? Haha! Keep it up 😁

one mil!!!!

I never left pornhub so fast…

There's another Mountain actor in Season 2 in Harrenhall

Of course the conflict with the Stark's and the Lannisters was avoidable. Honestly, if Ned would have had an ounce of political savvy he could have avoided his own death and spared his family, friends and the Seven Kingdoms alot of pain.
