Can anyone explain to me how sansa is smart?

>outsmarted little finger
By being tricked and baited by him every step of the way. She killed him the first few seconds she got the power to.
>convinced the vale
Cried. Like any fucking bitch would do to get their way out of a lie
>Ramsey would kill rickon
Actually she didn't give any accurate advice. She just said Ramsey is evil and will try to make you do something
>wouldn't send her army
Did she know that or did she just parrot that after she was told it.

Really not that smart just a cunt

She smartened up after having to see how Littlefinger operated for years.

Showed a modicum of growth that she realized the guy was lying this time around to save his own ass.

>Rickon
I'm now reminded of this boy. What the fuck happend? Is there even a chance of them adressing it?

You didn't have a problem believing that Tyrion was smart even though he fucked up since season 1, was is the fact that Sansa has learned with all Westero's players hard to buy? We've seen her making mistakes in the game, but she is better at the board than anyone left.

He didn't fuck up at all. He made it through all the shit he went through and he's obviously very smart.

Sansa has done nothing other than beat littlefinger. And that would be largely due to him underestimating her.

I'm sure her character should have been expected to learn a lot from him, but that will be limited to learning his type of skillset.

She was so smart that she was able to figure out that the dude who has done nothing but trick and betray her since she met him was the bad guy and not her literal sister.

He was killed by an arrow from Ramsey at the battle of bastards.

She doesnt trust anybody
Basically Cersei logic
>if i dont believe anything then im too smart to be fooled

Shes street smart now.
Not book smart

And literally no one has cared since.

I care.

Sansa is wamin, womynz smart.

oh shit fuck this show even harder now

They're not even really portraying her as doing smart things. They're just saying she's smart.

guys the leak discord was shut down those fucking monkeys has anyone the new discord?

Wtf fucking gay

Littlefinger basically taught here everything right?

Bran outsmarted LF. Sansa and arya were at each other's throats until he stepped in. Or maybe not - the show didn't fucking tell us.

Convincing the vale lords that lysa killed herself is literally the only bit of manipulation she has doen the whole show and it wasn't even to benefit her.

She knew the psychopath would kill someone? What a genius.

Cersei not sending her army north is obvious, which is why the wight plan was so dumb. Don't give props to the character when the writers just made everyone around her retarded.

Jon only went into battle at all because he thought there were no more troops to be had. Sansa literally created the crisis it took her and lf to solve.

Trained to do this as a girl and has nothing to do with politics or scheming.

Great - the last hope of a desperate writer - just have other people say she is smart.

Tyrion isn't smart now. I won't argue with you there.

>1: Arya said so.
>2: She realized that an army needs food. (When no one else did. even those soldiers in the army)
>3: She invented layering clothing to help keep warm. (A first in the history of the North)
>Bonus extra: In the next episode she will instruct the fighters to hold their swords by the hilt, instead of the pointy end.

It was needed to give Sansa a complete story. GRRM's notes had Sansa becoming quite good at 'The Game of Thrones'. He meant of course the political intrigue part - Manipulating others and swaying public opinion. Playing factions against each other to better one's ends. But D&D are hacks. Bad Hacks. Clueless Hacks. Instead they took being good at the 'Game' as being book smart, or tactically smart. Which is a shame, because there was a great chance for a good 'Sansa' arc. And it could have happened. (and it still could happen in the books)

Here's how her Character arc should have played out ...
Sansa starts out as a wishful young princess, who believes the fairy-tale stories of what life at court is like.
> Romance with a handsome Prince,
> Festivals with valiant knights
> Loyal loving servants
> Uniting the Kingdom with wise counsel
> Lemon cakes

Through lots and lots of tragedy, her idealistic dreams are shattered. She learns what the 'Game of Thrones' is really all about.

> Marriages of convenience,
> Bread and Circuses to placate the masses
> Bribing servants to spy on their masters
> Backstabbing other nobles to gain/maintain power
> Poisoned food
And the most important thing she should have learned is - How to do it all, without being caught.

While being used as a pawn, she comes in contact with those that really know how the 'game' is played. Some of the best. (Cersei, Margaery + Grandma, Littlefinger). Out of necessity, she starts to play the game herself. Initially for self preservation, but eventually to help herself and her bloodline. She was the right person to eventually take Littlefinger out, but she should have done it discretely, and by getting someone else to take the blame (probably Cersei).

Her arc should have been from naive Princess, to cunning Queen. Cunning! Not smarts! But I don't think D&D know the difference. She still would have become a Stronk Womyn, but one with a character arc that makes sense.
Opportunity wasted.

>one of the Winterfell peasants looks down and sees he's holding a mace, sweats nervously

She keeps her hands behind her back and speaks in a contrived regal tone, this is Game of Thrones for smart and good at governing

If she was dumb, she'd probably be eating chicken with her hands throughout this entire scene or something, and being loud, which is Game of Thrones for stupid and bad at governing

Learn the difference or you'll miss the nuances of the show white boi

Because she's a woman, duh.

based

this thread reeks of reddit.

niggers

Imagine being this mad at a character who didn't get their due arc because the show runners rushed it, like they've rushed everything else. Just say it's shit writing and literally have sex, you're seething for no fucking reason.

Faggots.

If you hate Sansa you are going to be mad af when the series finishes, the only consolation will be the blue haired Danyslags getting BTFO.

Imagine being this mad at people criticizing your fictional medieval waifu

>"Smart"
She's not even smart. She says the most obvious things and a lot of the times she's even flat out wrong or dumb.

>Told Jon not to fight Ramsey and to wait.
Wait for what? Jon even said that that was the biggest army they could get, and to his knowledge there was nothing else he could do. Sansa was the one who kept the info about the Knights of the Vale from Jon.

>She tells Jon NOT to go to Dany.
Jon manages to convince her and now has a bigger army. If he listened to Sansa they'd all be even more fucked.

>Sansa questions how are we going to feed everyone?
She was the one that was supposed to think about that shit in the first place. Jon went to see dany. Surely there was a chance she would Join. It's Sansa's fault for not even entertaining the idea that Jon would convince her to help him. So the food problem is on her.

and many many more. She's straight up stupid or unwilling to take the risks necessary that Jon is.

Sansa grew up a pampered and naive brat, there is no way she suddenly is smart now. She has become normal at best through her misery.
