Game Of Thrones Season 7: Predicting Who Lives And Who Dies

13. Robin Arryn And Yohn Royce

Outside of Littlefinger, these two are the only remaining connections to the Vale, one of Westeros' more intriguing and less explored areas. Littlefinger is probably going to die this season, and it's a good opportunity to take the Vale off the board completely.

While the Knights of the Vale did play a big part in the Battle of the Bastards, the area itself feels superfluous at this stage, without enough key characters to sustain it. Robin Arryn is so sickly (and just darn irritating) it's a wonder he survived this long, and there's really no point to him now, if there ever was.

Yohn Royce is more valuable, because he's a skilled warrior, and the actor behind him (Rupert Vansittart) has teased some more troubles between him and Baelish. As a veteran warrior he could prove useful in Season 8, but he seems like a character it'd be easy to get rid of at this stage for a cleaner break.

Prediction: Both die (though Royce has more chance of survival).
