Be aware, there are spoilers ahead for Game of Thrones episode 8.4.
Woof. Game of Thrones episodes don't get much more divisive than 'The Last of the Starks', the fourth episode of the final season, which sent heads rolling, somehow gave Euron a dragon death, and gave Ghost an even worse send-off than fans were fearing. RIP Rheagal. RIP Missandei. RIP King's Landing probably next week. And considering the divided nature of the fan reaction, it's perhaps not surprising that the meme culture this week was a little tamped down.
So who won the Game of Memes this week? Eh, no one? And not in the Arya Stark way. There weren't a lot of winners in this episode -- except maybe Cersei, though her reign as the mad queen seems tenuous as ever -- but if there's one character who spawned the most content it's definitely Sansa, who very strategically let Jon's true identity spread like wildfire through the realms biggest influencers. Y'all mad, but she didn't let that slip on accident.
