Game Of Thrones Season 6: 26 WTF Moments

1. Does Cersei Actually Have Any Allies Left?

GAME OF THRONES WTF

The rise of the Mad Queen is an exceptionally promising arc for season 7, and the idea of Cersei as a war queen with enemies at every door is a truly great one too, but there's a fairly big problem.

Even if Cersei aligns with Euron Greyjoy (which seems inevitable since his common enemy is going to be Danaerys), she's lost the Frey army and the Tyrells - both of whom she needed to even function militarily. She might have the best trained army in Westeros, but it isn't massive (hence having to ask the Tyrells for support) and she has no money (again, that came from High Garden).

In other words, she hasn't a friend in the world and she's suddenly been pushed to her most powerful position. Are we supposed to believe that Qyburn, some Wildfire and the Mountain are going to be enough to fight off Dany's army of Unsullied, Dothraki, Ironborn, Sandsnakes (and whatever Dorne can provide in troops) and dragons?! It's entirely improbable.

Unless of course she's going to make some sort of alliance with the Night's King... But that's surely not going to happen, right? RIGHT?
