Game Of Thrones: Ranking EVERY Major Death Worst To Best

42. Rickon Stark

Game Of Thrones Ned Stark
HBO

Death: Shot by Ramsay Bolton.

A Battle of the Bastards death that everyone saw coming and no-one cared about.

Rickon Stark (Art Parkinson) was a thoroughly under-developed character. In fact, in his season six role he literally didn't have a single line of dialogue and therefore his death didn't hit nearly as hard as it should've done. Also, he would've given himself a far better chance had he zig-zagged while running away from Ramsay (who was shooting arrows at him), instead of running in a straight line.
