House of the Dragon: Season 1 Character Tier List

House of the Dragon: Season 1 Character Tier List

Comments

The way I saw Laena's death, she knew she was going to die either way. No c-section, the baby would have died inside which would kill her OR c-section which would kill her and the baby would probably also die. So she took the chance that her baby was a dragon (fire immune) and burned herself to save her and the baby any further pain. I didn't see it as a prideful "dragon rider's death". Just my 2 cents

The opening 20 minutes of this has got to be my favorite Barry segment ever, lol

Also a lot of y’all act as though rhaenyra’s actions don’t matter. Yes it matters if she’s a virgin or at least that people she believes she is nit only alicent and yes it matters if she has legitimate sons at least ONE. It’s annoying and unfair but rhaenyra is a woman and can’t just do whatever she wants and her father gave her more leniency than was to be expected. And y’all still expect alicent to do things even she as a woman of this time would overlook, like we can’t forgot what their society is like

AllyBoo124

No cuz SPEAK ON IT. you ate

AllyBoo124

No I agree I want rhaenyra to prevail but the lack of alicent sympathy is JARRING. Like it’s actually wild and I literally can’t wrap my mind around it, it gives me the same feeling as people who hate Sansa but refuse to have any sympathy or understanding of her

Daemon is the best character outside of Visery's

Garrett Serbin

Daemon was cheap shot by Cole in the tourney. He did knock I'm off his horse but hit Daemon when his back was turned, jeering up the crowd. Cole & Daemon are the top dogs with Aemond close behind.

Garrett Serbin

Need to rewatch. Guaranteed you'll catch more & understand a couple characters better. Took me 3 watch thrus

Garrett Serbin

You're giving Alicent WAY TOO much Credit. Character is great & actions justified sure. But by no means is she somehow downtrodden?? Lol if she took some notes from Rheanrya she would've been happier. Instead of a fake hypocrite proclaiming to stand for decency & honor.

Garrett Serbin

A good time as always!! Visery's deserves more praise. His Character was incredible

Garrett Serbin

True enough! Plus losing her own Mother b4 she was a Woman

Garrett Serbin

Alicent shouldn't care so much that Rheanrya fucked anybody. Only reason she did was jealously & a false sense of honor... Rheanrya says it multiple times "they only want me for my blood" A.K.A Dragon power. Nobody cares if she's a Virgin just Alicent

Garrett Serbin

Yeah idk what is so confusing about this. They've already addressed it in episode 1.

Garrett Serbin

Definitely makes sense yes. But Alicent is no victim like ppl that favor her claim. I like the character ALOT too but she did this all to herself. First by doing what her father told her to do (unlike Rheanrya) & married Visery's. & from that point on she gradually trusts Rheanrya less & less. The answer was for the 2 childhood friends to trust one another & rule the realm United like VISERY'S kept telling them

Garrett Serbin

Ooh naw, I have a lot of sympathy for young Alicent. She's a child who got married off to an old man, and did her duty 'cuz she didn't feel she had a choice. She tears her own hands up out of stress. I can mess with young Alicent, at least a bit, maybe even a lot I dunno, but def at least a bit. The problem I have with her is once she gets older and used to "the game" her team is playing. She covered up for her r*pist son by telling the r*pe victim "hey you know if you say anything this is gonna be on you" that's INSANE. Even if it's entirely true, the way she handled that interaction is insane. AND THEN SHE INSTALLED THE R*PIST AS KING AS HE"S JACKING OUT THE WINDOW IN FRONT OF CHILDREN AND THE GODS AND HIS OWN MOTHER naw, fucc that b what, it's okay 'cuz she yells at him sometimes...? Nnnnnnnaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww ain't nothing okay. I don't hate Alicent fundamentally, like as a person at her core. I don't think she's evil nor dumb nor whatever else, I don't even think she's uniquely bad in this show, she's in great company all around. But I don't know, at this point in the show, if I'm prepared to ever forgive her for how she's acting in these situations with such wide reaching consequences. Installing a dumb self-involved r*pist who has never shown any concern for anybody but himself as KING OF A CONTINENT is bonkers, hecc that chick for playing this game this way. If your candidate is a r*pist, you find a new candidate. And she wants to be self-righteous about it 'cuz "look how they mess around" b LOOK AT YOUR SON, tell me who is messy, please

Waaaayyy too long of a story just to make a small point time!!! I'm in the middle of a crazy move. I had a year lease and then 4 years and 7 months of month-to-month tenancy; and me signing that lease in the first place was contingent on me being told I could grow whatever plants I want; I'm big into growing food, I've got fig trees and persimmon trees and pink champagne currants, more plants than I can count, all growing in Ohio. Then I get a note on my door that says you have until the end of the month (IN DECEBER, you know, when moving services are closed for like five days near end end of the month? yea that one xp) to vacate, 'cuz the owner sold the place and the new owner doesn't care abut me and immediately wanted to remodel for a higher price, *even though my full time wages are 5x the previous [rather low] rent and I told them I could pay more*, WITHOUT them needing to reseed the lot for a new tenant, they could charge me just as much without them having to pay for an entire yard service; nope, just got a response that said sorry owner wants you out to remodel. So now I'm stuck yanking fruit trees out of the ground IN DECEMBER (as an eco-extremist, I've never been happier for the warming weather, let me tell you). Anyway, a lot of preface just to say, gosh, I sure am drained, wired and tunnel-visioned right now, and gosh, I sure did forget for a moment about the meme he's established for the thumbnail for these videos, and GOSH, I really appreciate the hearty laugh I got from this thumbnail just now. A good laugh really eased some [I suppose largely self-imposed] stress from my shoulders. I really do appreciate you, brah.

Your willingness to see and understand Alicent's point of view is awesome, a lot of watchers tend to just call her a bitch and hate her because the show is tilted in Rhaenyra's favor and we can see her POV and Alicent goes against her but her character makes so much sense when you take the time to think about it!

Neoxie

RIP Ser Harwin, didn't meet the quota for the tier list and died a fiery death, always in our hearts

Daniel

A baby in breech in medieval times, which is the vibe of Hotd, was mostly fatal for both mother and child. Lena, as a woman, knows this all too well.

Isa BXL

Daemon had a whole standing army loyal to him in the city watch, and some are still loyal to him 20 years later!! CC won by technicality, Daemon was showboating!😭Also none of us actually know the context of Daemons β€œHeir for a day” speech, as the scene cuts away before he says it. Maybe he was actually saying it solemnly, who knows?? (I understand it totally makes for his character that he said it mockingly but still not impossible) anyways there is my pitch for Daemon S Tier πŸ—‘οΈ πŸ‰ πŸ”₯ 🩸

Hugor Hill

Viserys thought he was still talking to Rhaenyra when he told Allicent about the prophecy, when he says β€œit is you. You must do this” he thought he was telling Rhaenyra that he thinks SHE is the prophesied hero Aegon saw that will unite the realm. He thinks she is The Prince or Princess that was promised I guess

Hugor Hill

You really be paying attention bruh no capπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Alicent being a bad mother is 100% Otto's fault (childhood trauma and all that)

Daniel

Merry Christmas I think people hate on Alicent due to her father being Otto. CC is a control-freak in my eyes. Keep Baela in S-tier! 🀀

Niels Vinther

Lucerys was defending his cousins and brother. Aemond was being a dick head! We'll see what you think of him next season LOL!

Melanie Vine

Excited to see where sir incel cole lands on this list. His grading will be all that he has left to HIS FUCKIN NAMEEE πŸ˜‚

Nana-Afia

She doesnt fall off and die. Rhaenyra and daemon find her at her dragon trying to fly and then bring her back to bed to wait on her lovingly as she dies. I prefer her book death. It seems like the writers just wanted to do annother death for spectacle and thought it would play well into a "her choice" scene. I was not a fan. They discarded a lot of what made laenas character great

Nana-Afia

In the books Laena gives birth (or doesn't can't remember for sure) and then suffers through the postpartum fever, gets on her dragon, flies away somewhere and falls off Vhaegar in flight, dies. Makes waaay more sense, thou it's less dramatic than her show death which I agree with you makes 0 sense in terms of dragonrider's death.

Jernej Sever

i think it makes sense considering rhaenyra got to have her children out of love, while alicent had hers out of duty. rhaenyra also had a lot of support and genuine love from her father while alicent was only ever used as a means to an end by otto. alicent was forced into motherhood with neither the desire nor the skills to be a mother so early on

june

loveee your position on alicent. i too am team rhaenyra but like you said that's mainly because we know the truth and we see her perspective most of the time. alicent's feelings and thoughts are 100% relatable and i've felt bad for her from the beginning. also olivia cooke is insanely good at portraying said feelings

june

24:55 Ok I get your problems with Rhaenyra, but when it comes to being a mother, Alicent is awful. Her old sets son jerks off out the window, has raped at LEAST one woman, has bastards all over town, and goes and bets on little kid fighting pits. Then Aemond is a complete fucking psychopath. Helaena is the only nice one, but she is different and wasn’t born with a mean bone in her body. Compare Alicent’s sons to Jace and Luke. These are good, honorable kids. So for mothers, Alicent SUCKS, Rhaenyra is very good.
