Warning: Our Game of Madness articles will include content from the five currently released A Song of Ice and Fire books and seasons 1-5 of HBO’s adaptation Game of Thrones. Some material from A Feast for Crows and A Dance With Dragons has not been covered in the show yet, but may be in season 6. If you aren’t caught up with the books and/or show, read on with care.
The Finals
The finals are here and after today, we’ll be down to just two fighters remaining. Two from the original field of 48 who will face off tomorrow in our championship match. To keep things as mad as possible, we’ve reranked the finalists based on random draw. The first two names pulled face off and the winner takes on the third name pulled. The process was then repeated with the remaining three names, leaving us with the following setup for our finals:
