10 Worst Kings In Game Of Thrones

6. Robert Baratheon

Out of the three Baratheon brothers, Robert was the only one who sat upon the throne, and he's probably the last of the trio you'd actually want there. Back in his day, Robert was a mighty warrior, after all, he did end the Targaryen reign and seized the Seven Kingdoms, but like Robb, his mind was sent spinning by love. Lyanna Stark's death was a bombshell for Robert, and that ignited his decline. As he sat the throne, he became obsessed with wine, women, war and anything to fill the hole left by Lyanna. His fury at the Targaryens festered, and knowing there was no more he could do to get revenge was a torment. He simply messed around in King's Landing while his counsellors ruled in his stead and counted the cost of his lavish living. Robert's death sparked the worldwide carnage still shaking Westeros in the latest season, though if he'd been a more stable king, the transition would've been far smoother. Robert was likeable enough, but he simply exploited his power in order to party.
