Has anyone else seen the theory that the NK might not even be at the battle (just leave his “leiutenants” to do the work) and that he’s actually gone south to KL and that’s where this is from in Brans vision

yes, and he isn't stupid to get into this battle himself, i see a good strategist in him

because also he wanted to kill a dragon in the north, so that one would be under his command (everything what dies in the north is under Night King's control)

also i think the ''crypts of winterfell'' teaser we saw, could feature in this episode 3

Spoiler:

Jon, Arya pulling their swords, Sansa standing there, and the ice coming into the crypts

i think strategically, kings landing is good for the NK and the dragon, lots of corpses to be had, but first port of call will be Bran

I think that anyone other than the 4/5 main contenders to the throne are fair game to fall in the battle, so i'm thinking the worst in the hope that I wont be too traumatised at the end

I firmly believe that one of Dani/Jon will fall

In the trailer it's snowing in the Godswood when Jon wields his sword. I think that's when and where he faces the Night King.

I don't think it will be him that deals the fatal blow. Could be Arya with Gendry's spear. Or Dany and her dragons avenging the death of Viserion. Or Sam being reluctantly heroic again. Or Bran doing some weird stuff.

That and there's no way I can see them killing off The Night King only halfway into the season

Tea, he’ll definitely be around until Ep 5
