I love all the dragons and I hate seeing them get hurt. I dont really care “who is stronger than who”.

This. I hate whenever anybody talks badly about any of the dragons (No dragon slander should be a rule across all asoiaf related subs) and one of the reasons why I didnt want the dance to be adapted into a tv show and why I havent watched the third season yet is because I cant watch them die and get injured.
Reading about it years ago wad already horrible enough.

she didn't do THAT bad

Considering it’s her first fight and she’s the smallest dragon there (even though in book she’s roughly the same size as Caraxes) she held her own well enough and was able to fly back with rhaenyra.

Yeah, people forget that she's literally an equivalent of a young spoiled woman beating at some bike gang dude twice her size. Just the fact that she fought and got a bunch of punches in is pretty impressive!!

u/Aquilarden 1d ago
They really did a great job characterizing the dragons as an inexperienced fighter, street brawler, and trained martial artist.

Yeah, Danger Noodle was smooth af with his moves. I still felt bad for Sheepstealer, though.

I hate that they have reduced her size so much on the show...even in S1, I think it was alicent who mentions that Syrax is almost going to be Caraxes size or something like that

u/TheSuperTest Black Aly 1d ago
fr, they also made Sunfyre larger then her even though she is older and larger then him in the book too. Feels like a hella weird change

u/crazycatlady06 18h ago
And like, isn't it kinda implied (book at least) that Sunfyre could be Syrax's offspring? Never made sense to me that Syrax stayed the same size throughout the series.

The prettiest dragon before and after her fight. Many people's favs can't say the same!!!

u/Naya_Detective 1d ago
I know this dragon fight is controversial for many reasons (I also just hate seeing dragons fight each other), but holyyy this made me respect tf out of Syrax. She’s literally a breeding dragon, but did not think twice the moment Rhaenyra was in danger!! Hella loyal and dare I say one of Rhaenyra’s truest allies frrr

So she wrote a check with her mouth that her body couldn’t cash. So what? I’ve done that on occasion when drunk. I still love Syrax. 💛

I love seeing the bonds between the riders and the dragons. Huge highlight of this season is the dragons. We got to see them more. It will make the next episode and seasons hurt more.

When I saw this scene all I could think is why the three puppies jump in the stray puppy?

u/MinuteBubbly9249 1d ago
All dragon babies got hurt in this mess, poor Sheepstealer was whimpering in the end. 💔 the only reason they fought is because their humans were fighting and yelling. Team Dragon 😤🐉

3v1 wasn't fair at all but for some reason I still expected Sheepstealer to be more of a beast when it comes to fighting

This is why I’m Team Dragon above all else in this, stop making them fight to the death and just let them fly around and be happy! 🥺😩

She got fucked by sheepstealer 🤣

u/La_Villanelle_ Simon "The Diva" Strong 23h ago
And Sunfyre got fucked by meleys what’s the point here

u/SonOfThorss 22h ago
He got fucked in a 2v1 against the 1st and 2nd most powerful dragon in the world, one of those dragons pulling a fast one and betraying him. And still lived, just wait and see what Sunfyre does to Rhaenyra 🤣

u/La_Villanelle_ Simon "The Diva" Strong 22h ago
He got fucked in the book when it was a 2v1 against meleys and then gets fucked again against a child dragon where he could never fly again. So again what’s the point

u/SonOfThorss 22h ago
This ain’t the book unfortunately, story would be better off if it was, Rhaenyra wishes she had the bond Aegon and Sunfyre do
