Like I know how fun the /cleganebowl/ meme has become but let's be serious, it's a bit out of GRRM's creative writing style. Even setting aside the numerous logical leaps required for Sandor to return to stand champion of the Faith, people must still realize that it's simply bad writing.

If Jaime really is the "little brother" then that holds a little more emotional resonance to me, although I can't really think why he would be fighting for the Faith.

Lancel would get butt pummelled. Even the Faith probably don't have that much faith.

Who could it be lads?

Or it'll be brienne following the trend of the show.

I want HBO to drop this shit meme.

could theoretically be lancel, as he is canonically part of the faith militant.

i personally believe that GRRM has wrapped up sandor's arc and that he intends to leave him as the gravedigger, but its GRRM and he's surprised me before so i believe there's a small, but legitimate chance that sandor will be the faith's champion. would require sandor to want to join the faith militant which i dont believe is really plausible but still.

could be some random mook.


SHIT HOW COULD I FORGET. tyene sand is in the capitol attempting to get in the high septon's good graces. though im not sure her skills with poison could help her against an undead version of gregor. i pick her as my wild card. even if she isnt the champion for the faith, i do believe that doran has sent her to KL in order to make sure that cersei dies.

Jaime McValonqar for the books.


Brienne of Terminator for the show.

why in the world would jaime be the faith militant's champion.

How about Bloodraven acting through another body?

Fuck knows what his plan is, he could be controlling the High Sparrow for all we know.
