What do you think of Sansa's character overall and her growth throughout the seasons? I've seen haters say she isn't a leader, she couldn't raise her own army, she knows nothing about battles or strategy, etc.
………. so who won the Battle of the Bastards?
Do people not realize that if it weren’t for Sansa then Winterfell would still be under Ramsay’s rule? Jon was ready to just give up, she galvanizes people.
Sansa doesn’t just inspire loyalty in the people around her, she inspires devotion which is how she gets followers
which is how she’d get an army
Not to mention that Sansa is one of the most strategic characters on GoT, that’s the only way she’s been able to survive as long as she has, it may not be as flashy as burning cities and then not knowing what to do with the people afterwards but it’s a lot more practical and it’s a lot more long-lasting:
I mentioned this before but Sansa is an observer, she’s learned from all of the people around her whether it was Cersei,
Or growing up around her parents. She understands what it is to lead and she understands what it means to strategize because she’s seen it done in a multitude of ways and has struck her own balance
She has foresight, she’s an excellent planner
and she trusts in those who serve her and not blindly
Which is all to say that I really like Sansa because I think she’s a good example of what development looks like and she is a great leader. There’s more to ruling than setting shit on fire.
