Game Of Thrones: Ranking The Probability Of Every Character Death In The Battle Of The Bastards

8. Tormund Giantsbane

Tormund Game Of Thrones

Cult-hero alert. Tormund Giantsbane is slowly approaching legend status in the hearts of fans with a string of moments that have fast-tracked his character to greatness.

Over time he has changed, he has mellowed from a ranting, raving, dark, witty wilding to a ranting, raving, dark, witty wilding with an ounce of respect flowing through him. If you’re in Tormund’s good books, he’s a genuine ally. If you’re in his bad books, you’re a dead man walking.

The flashes of a Tormund/Brienne ‘thing’ won’t stop him from being skewered by the Boltons, but the fact that he’s the main liaison between wildlings and men suggests he may cling on. Just.

Chance of death: 4/10
