“I fought, I lost. Now I rest. But you, Lord Snow, you’ll be fighting their battles forever.” 

Jon Snow might not be fighting forever, but he’s moving on to the Sweet 16 alongside 15 other Game of Thrones favorites as our March Madness tournament continues. Things are starting to get interested as the herd thins; we’ve got friends, family members and lovers all squaring off against each other. But first, let’s take a look at the second round highlights.

Round two saw our first number one seed eliminated, as Cersei Lannister was evicted from the tournament by Samwell Tarly. Brienne of Tarth took down last year’s champion — Littlefinger — preventing him from repeating. Theon barely escaped once again, this time narrowly defeating Maester Aemon. Meanwhile, Missandei continued her unlikely run, reigning over Catelyn Stark. Is Missandei this year’s Littlefinger? The road only gets tougher from here.

Our Sweet Sixteen sees Jon continue his rampage against his loved ones. After eliminating Ygritte, the King in the North faces his cousin, Bran Stark. Fan favorites Davos Seaworth and Arya Stark square off, while Sansa and Tormund Giantsbane face off in a ginger throwdown. Elsewhere, the king and queen of “It’s complicated” — Brienne and Jaime — meet up, while Daenerys tries to fend off a surging Missandei. Here’s the complete bracket.

Remember, this is not about who would win in a fight, unless that’s what’s most important to you. Just choose your favorite characters. Hairstyle and comedic ability are perfectly legitimate reasons to pick one person over another.
