Game Of Thrones: Ranking EVERY Major Death Worst To Best

37. Qyburn

Death: Head smashed by The Mountain during the Sack of King's Landing.

Given that Qyburn's (Anton Lesser) death occurs during Daenerys' sack of King's Landing, that ridiculously misjudged narrative turn, it's pretty hard to have much appreciation of this one. As well as this, seeing this pretty awesome character killed in such a flippant way was fairly jarring.

Still, there's an amusing irony to it. This unethical scientist gets killed by his own creation.
