SO HOW WOULD YOU HAVE DONE IT?

>hard mode
Everyone dies at Winterfell, the dead march south and win

>Nightmare mode
The dragon gets shot down mid episode
north men turn on easterners because the horror
Cersi wins after they wipe each other out

>OTDCKPFTM
I guess nightmare mode is the same thing here

I would have made Jon a Super Saiyan

Infinitely better than what the show came up with

How are any of those hard? The outcomes aren't what's so horrible about this season, it's how they were lead up to.

A castle of cards, my dude.

>HARD MODE: You can't change anything about the past seven seasons.

Nightking creeps all the way to King's landing and gets stopped way more southern.
Tyrion gets kill, Dany snaps after torching red keep and accidently the whole KL. Either doesn't get killed, but also doesn't want to get the Throne (aka she gets traumatized by the price she paid for it), or, in a tragic way, gets misunderstood and killed for that.

>NIGHTMARE MODE: You can't change the outcome of the Mad Queen storyline.

Nightking creeps all the way to King's landing
Tyrion gets kill. Jon Snow goes in exile for north because he is literally sick of the lord squabbles and Game of Thrones. Bran serves as the God Emperor while six kingdoms adapt voting system similar to kingsmoot of the ironborn.

>ONLY THE DEAD CAN KNOW PEACE FROM THIS MODE: You can't change the outcome of the Night King storyline.

Tyrion gets kill for his shitty advices.
Arya goes after Cersei as planned and actually kills her and Jaime.
Dany gets killed, and Drogon fries Jon Snow for that (optionally).
The war is so devastating, that the rulers of seven kingdoms agree for a 1000-year-truce and decide to rule the realm as the council of seven, understanding that another wall will kill them for good.
At the end, Arya either returns to the House of Black and White, or gets killed by faceless assasin for good.

Hard mode.
Cersei wins and kills them all, including her brother.

Nightmare Mode.
Daenyris wins and then tries to execute Snow like Ned. Arya saves her brother and kills Daenyris. At the end bran reveals himself to be Littlefinger.

Last mode
I dont give a shit about the dead.
I didnt really give a shit about the storyline.

Impossible. Causality has been dead since season 4. You cant fix it. Just hope thanos sends you to an alternate timeline where grrm finished the last two books and att didnt buy out hbo

>first two episodes are the same
>episode three ends with night king reaching for his sword
>episode four picks up with the army of the dead having retreated back north for some reason; bran is missing and presumed to be dead
>everything else is the same through episode five
>during her attack dany ignites previously unknown wildfire caches that burn most of the city
>people assume all of the fire is because of her dragon
>jon turns on her because of this
>instead of picking a king, the kingdoms are broken back up into individual kingdoms
>final scene is bran being turned into a white walker, but in a way that indicates they turned him so he could be their leader

After Bran the Broken asks his counsel of Drogon's location and when he says i might look for him, we see Podrick take him to different room.

What if after that then Bran was alone and he was getting ready to worg and try to find Drogon his eyes started glowing blue implying that Night King somehow was able to take control of Bran before Arya killed him.

Or for me it would have been even better if sceen ended as Bran was alone in his room looking at the sea and thinking about life and shieet he reached for his arm and it be reviled that mark that Night King left him when he touched him started glowing blue again implying Night King took control of Bran before Arya had a chance of killing him.

Do I have to do it in the same number of episodes? Because I can't.

Ok I am gonna go hardest difficulty and give you this ending, change nothing about the entire series up until the post credit scene...

>After a long day Bran is exhausted and goes to his room
>Cuts to him looking out the window absent, he seems sad
>Sansa sits down besides him
>Bran tells her he doesnt feel it was right and he feels bad about what Jon had to go through
>Sansa tries to calm him and tells him he did good
>After a bit of silence he tells her that he can barely sleep because he feels guilty for all the chaos they left behind
>Sansa bends over to him and kisses him on the head then whispers to him "Chaos is a ladder"
>GOT THEME STARTS PLAYING

1. Wall breaks down, dead start marching south.
- This forces Westeros to unite to fight the greater evil

2. Jon Snow enlists all the famous lords to establish a war plan
- Conduct a fighting withdraw all the way down the north
- Evacuation of living to the south begins by land and by sea
3. Forces of men unite and use ambush tactics to weed out the dead and burn them
- Slowly but surely they whittle down the number of the dead
4. Final battle is in a kings landing devoid of all but fighters and rigged to blow with wild fire, they try to kill as many dead outside the gates as possible before luring them into the city
- Once majority of the dead are in the city, the decision is made to detonate the wild fire sacrificing all who remain in the city to kill the dead there, while a massive living cavalry force appears to clean up the rest.
5. Dead are eliminated. Most of the chars are eliminated heroically. Kings landing and the north are in ruins.
6. Jon rules in the end because of his strong moral values and willingness to sacrifice himself for the benefit of others

Something along those lines.

>Make it so Dany's armies didn't magically repopulate after winterfell
>Nobody to lock Jon up after he kills Dany
>Drogon comes back to be with the last Targaryen
>Jon gets to / has to be the king of the shit left behind at the end of the series
>Borderline suicidal now that his qt wife is dead and he can't just live out the simple life he wanted
>Arya fucking dies in the rubble because the white horse was actually pointless, as was her dumb mission to be the not-first person to sail West
>Tyrion dies because he was clearly supposed to

>Sansa bends over to him and kisses him on the head then whispers to him "Chaos is a ladder"
>Bran replies with "I see it more like a ramp."

Episode 1: the same

Episode 2: tormund and Ed's come back from the wall - really amplify the horror aspect - cersei begs borrows and steals to get the money for the golden company (kills a few nobles - acts dictatorial)

Episode 3 -winterfell: everyone is planning for the attack, tormund comes and tells them it's suicide. They need to retreat to a better location. Discussions continue the whole episode. Meanwhile introduce golden company and new nobles of the reach and dorne, begin plotting down south. Eventually - they decide to leave winterfell after bran convinces sansa, who convinces the leader of the vale. Sansa is a queen of whisperers here as well as castellan. Sad scene with Starks saying goodbye to winterfell.

Episode 4: forced retreat down south. Dothraki and armies are defending the migrating northerners. They head for the neck. Historically a good defendable location. Meanwhile, cersei marches north.
She gets stories of dead men rising in the riverlands, people have heard about the northern migration. Sympathy grows.

Episode 5: get to the neck, it's been heavily - heavily fortified. When asked about it, howland reed said he had many years to prepare. He saw this in a dream, as did his son. This episode is now exactly the same as episode 2 but instead of Sam telling Jon about the targ blood, howland tells him because he was there at the tower of joy.

Episode 6: you can keep the same if you want. The ending twist however is the golden company showing up immediately/during the war.

All set up for a 9th season strictly based on the growth of the mad queen Dany.

Stannis comes back. Stannis kills the night king, kills Dany long before she ruins King's landing, kills Cersei. Brands himself with a large A to atone for his disgusting adultery that book Stannis would never have stood for. The remaining Lords of Westeros realize that this paragon of virtue, honor and manliness is their true king. He renounces the red god, reveals it was a wildling girl be burned. Rules the 7 kingdoms, all of them uncontested and in absolute harmony. Names a district of the city after Bobby B. Before the credits roll we see Stannis as looks out upon the harbor from the king's quarters as he prepares to dutifully make love to Salsa to cement their alliance. The apparition of Bobby B looks on with pure pride and approval on his face. He bellows GODS HE'S BASED. Credits roll.

>Varys doesn't get caught and escapes to Winterfell in secret.
>After Jon kills the mad queen he doesn't wait for Drogon, gets scared and runs away. Drogon tries to incinerate him, but he fails. Drogon starts burning the city again, this time doesn't care for anyone.
>Jon uses the chaos to retreat to Winterfell with what he can muster. Tells Arya to free Tyrion.
>The Dothraki fuck off to elect a new Khal.
>The Unsullied regroup with what's left to avenge the mad queen.
>Drogon is ravaging what he can see - random villages in Westeros get obliterated.
>Battle between Westeros and the Unsullied - it is bloody as both sides are exhausted, but the cold climate and the chaos at King's Landing have left the Unsullied worse of than the Westerosi.
>Westeros wins.
>Tyrion tries to bribe Bronn again to make him fire the last few scorpions left at Drogon.
>No one knows where Bronn is. Except for Varys.
>Bronn refuses.
>Bran tries to warg into the dragon. It doesn't work, but some connection can be established.
>Bran wargs into Bronn and shows him what awaits him should he keep out of it.
>Bronn agrees, it's a last ditch effort. Brann wargs into Drogon to connect and tell him that Jon is responsible for the death of the mad queen. Bronn is lying in wait with the scorpion, hoping to hit Drogon before he can kill Jon.
>Scores a hit. Drogon still flies. Misses. Scores another hit, just as Drogon starts burning Jon. Jon hides behind in a crevice in the rocks near Winterfell, but is engulfed with flame.
>Drogon is now mortally wounded, flies around and burns what he can before plummeting somewhere in Winterfell, next to Tyrion. Tyrion sees sadness in Drogon's eyes as he dies.
>The flames at the crevice where Jon was extinguish. The rock has melted, but Jon has managed to survive, his clothes burned and his armor partially melted, proving his heritage.
>Jon is asked to be King.
1/2

Oh. We have an actual kinographer here. Go on

>Jon refuses, because he is guilty for killing the mad queen.
>He also says that you can never know what is really in the heart of a Targeryen.
>Council insists they know him and he will know what's good.
>Jon says he thought his queen knew what was good, and still refuses.
>A council is called, they agree they've had enough of the Targaryens and pick the legitimized Baratheon bastard as king.
>Gendry is overwhelmed and doesn't want the position.
>There is no better candidate and it is agreed, that if Jon abdicates, as he does, he is the rightful ruler.
>Gendry becomes king, with Varys, Tyrion, Sam, Davos, Brann, Brienne on the small council.
>It is the Age of the Bastard, councilled by the the eunuch, the dwarf, the fatty, the handicapped, the cripple and the feminine knight.
2/2

Oh and Jon decides to explore beyond the wall for a while. His ending is open.

Pretty good. Needs more Stannis. But a far better ending than what we got. Still doesn't really resolve what happens to Dorne or the situation with all the Iron Bank debt threatening to collapse the seven kingdoms within the fiscal year tho.

Lol.
>Stannis comes back
Based bro

Yeah, well, it doesn't make any sense why they would give the loan in the first place too...

I suppose it is Dorne who secede. Makes more sense than Winterfell. What's left of the Unsullied escape there, plotting with their new allies for the upcoming sequel. Which I hope doesn't happen.

Jon and deanery's argue about who should rule and have an epic one on one fight and leave each other wounded but alive. They retreat from the city and their supporters follow them to the north and south respectively. A decade passes. They both grow bitter and insane through a strange mix of love and hate, they launch war across all of Westeros in one final battle and kill each other simultaneously. All factions involved then retreat to their homelands and continue their petty quarrels Ad infinitum.

Salsa seceding was shitty. D&B already hammered home the theme of women being petty unstable cunts, and then they had Salsa secede from her own brother's kingdom. It was too on the nose that time. Bran is a literal cosmic being of unrivalled insight and foresight, her ability to rule would forever be undermined by the fact that he would rule her much stronger neighbouring country and know all the goings on in her country without even having to send spies or ask questions.

And still she was like "I want my own kingdom >:( I earned it somehow"

Yeah, it really made no sense for her to split off, considering the North would support Jon over her, if not Bran. And considering Bran is the ruler of the 6 kingdoms, it would make no sense to have Sansa, of all people, be the queen of Winterfell.

Tyrion kills Dany on the steps as she declares her victory. Grey Worm kills Tyrion. (he killed his own mother, why not kill THE MOTHER OF DRAGONS?)

Jon ascends the throne with Drogon by his side.

Jon decides these new dudes are fucking gay and still follow the Mad Queen so he scorches them with Drogon.

Good luck figuring out his tax policy.

I get many LOTR vibes from this. Even after the big battle for minas tirith, which felt like a climactic end, there were still a few loose ends that needed to be handled for the return of peace.

But Jon was already burned.

>The night king story going nowhere really was the worst part for me, after episode 3 I felt that you could have removed every episode involving the nights watch, bran, and anything beyond the wall and the series would have lost nothing since it meant nothing in the end.

this. what a joke of a storyline that turned out to be. literally anything good about the show is the human politics; what does this anticlimactic unexplained faggot contribute to that?

i mean the script writing of the later seasons sucked balls; but the whole concept of the night king is squarely the fat fucks' writing blunder.

There must always be a Night King
The Night King dies and all the dead just go mental, spreading out and tearing the north to pieces. Brann somehow takes control of them and they push dragonglass into his heart to let him be immortal.
Then Euron abandons Cersei when he realises the baby isn't his. The golden company get burned to pieces but a scorpion on the city walls takes out a dragon.
Jaime goes back to look for Cersei, and finds her dead with Arya standing over her. They fight and both die, he smashed her stupid fucking face in with his golden hand while she stabs him full of holes.
Dany takes KL, has a victory feast where she finally eats, then shits herself to death after ingesting Varys' poison.
Jon takes the throne.

Stannis shows up with a giant army he gathered in the last 3 seasons and dabs on the iron throne.

this is breddy gud. would the knight king made seem less pointless, to hint at a continuation of his existence/powers

>to weed out the dead and burn them
pretty retarded sentence comprehension skills you got there tbqh

Make Westeros a fully agrarian society, feed the king various forms of cattle until he's full. That's it. Every farm in the kingdom pays in alphabetical order.

Revenue for the throne is generated by charging tourists to ride on drogons back.

This is now my headcanon.

Charging them what? An arm and a leg if the king is feeling happy? Otherwise it's more?

5 gold dragons per mile. How do you think the currency got that name? Bran went back in time and implanted that idea in a previous king's head after seeing how things turned out.

True kino desu

>Charging them what?
about three fiddy

Everything occurs as has been shown, even all of Season 8
Bran wakes up in a modern day hospital bed, he's been in a coma since he was hit by a car when out for a bike ride.
The entire series was all in his imagination as a means to keep his mind occupied. Lots of people he's met are people close to him 'in RL'

shouldn't nightamre mode and onlydead mode switch places?

>Battle of Winterfell
>Dany gets killed by the NK in a dragon fight, brought back as a whitewalker and then gets killed by Jon
>She regains human conscience for a little as a tearful goodbye takes place
>Azor Ahai requirements met, Jon's sword goes on fire, nukes the battlefield
>Fight with NK who is actually shown to be a skilled fighter, has Jon on the ropes a number of times
>Ends similarly with Arya leaping to kill the NK just as he was about to kill Jon, but this time Arya's dagger drops down to Jon instead of her other hand who then kills the NK
>Jon carries on Dany's will as he makes his way to King's Landing

All but the final episode is the NK spamming southward with his army with the MCs from Winterfell in a frantic, constantly harried retreat. KL is razed(Jaime and Cirsei still die but Cirsei is gutted by a wight and Jaime dies cs NK.) Dany has Drogon attack the NK as a frantic last ditch effort. NK survives, kills Drogon. Jon and Arya engage NK, Jon is wounded but survives, Arya still gets the KB. Dany sees this as the perfect opportunity to seize the Iron Throne, still orders her nigger horde to RAPE KILL BURN the remnants of KL. Jon makes Grey Work his bitch, kills Dany, rallies remnants of Golden Company and Goldcloaks to drive the remaining horseniggers and nigger niggers into the sea.

Jon claims the throne by right of Conquest.

Bran is made king just as in the show.
A few weeks pass and Archmaestar Sam wishes to show Bran a recently discovered relic shipped from the citadel.
It's an ancient painted stone mural.
It shows the children of the forest and the first men united in battle. The CoF and First Men are fighting three figures of ice, blood, and fire, each emblazoned with an ancient rune, all standing in a black spiraling circle.

Sam tells Bran that this doesn't make sense--the legends only mention the figure of ice, the night king. Bran states that 8000 years is a long time, books fall apart, gets retranscribed. That's why the stone relic is so rare. Bran says it is perhaps the oldest surviving description of the Long Night.

Sam asks what the runes mean. Bran looks blankly at Sam and says, "the figure of ice is 'past', the figure of is 'present', and the figure of fire is 'future'. The spiral means 'mastery' but can also mean 'to fly like a bird'".
Sam's face twists with sudden understanding. Sam backs away towards an open window in terror of the Three Eyed Raven's gambit.

"It's okay, Sam" Bran exclaims in a familiar voice, "getting caught was part of my plan."

Cut to credits Sopranos style.

Completely agree. Night King death was the biggest blue in television history.

Gendry is too underutilized for this, would be a hamfisted full circle ending and barely better than what we got. 5/10

>an anonymous shitposter can write a better ending than the (((official))) writers
Bravo

8/10 bretty gud

After Dany went nuts and burned down the city, she flies away and is never seen again. King's Landing is a ghost town with a bunch of looting Dothraki. Every region is independent, she truly was the breaker of chains.
