Science advances day by day. He sometimes even scares us with his findings. A similar thing happened this time, as a data scientist calculated the probabilities for the death of the heroes of the Game of Thrones series in the 8th season of the broadcast.
Taylor Larking from the company DataRobot used a computer algorithm in the prediction, with the help of which he found which of the characters in the popular series will die in the final season.
The new episodes will otherwise only be available later in the year 2019. Larking took on a very difficult task, as Game of Thrones is known as a series in which it is difficult to predict the outcome of events. Last but not least, its main character Eddard Stark was already beheaded in the first season.
were included in the analysis 2000 profiles from the website A Wiki of Ice and Fire. The probability of death was determined based on age, loyalty, gender and relatives of the characters.
Which 10 characters are most likely to die in season 8?
10. Gendry – 39.87 %
The illegitimate child of Robert Baratheon made the list mainly because of the many deaths in the family and the male gender.
9. Arya Stark - 49.04 %
Arya is a woman, but the fact that her mother, father and brother are already dead certainly doesn't help her.
8. Sansa Stark – 50.28 %
She not only shares genes with her sister Arya, but also the probability of death.
7. Euron Greyjoy – 54.95 %
In the previous seasons, things did not turn out very well for Euron. It doesn't help that he is male and that many of his relatives are already dead.
6. Jon Snow – 58,99 %
The reasons for the high probability of Jon's death are similar to Euron's. Jon has grown into the hearts of many fans of the series, so few want to see him dead.
5. Cersei Lannister – 60,39 %
Many people wonder how it is possible that Cersei is still alive. Perhaps her last hour will strike in season 8, as she is already 39 years old.
4. Bran Stark – 66,02 %
Bran excels in the role of the Three-Eyed Raven, but his chances of survival are diminished by dead relatives and gender.
3. Tyrion Lannister – 70.76 %
Why is the popular midget so high on the list? The answer lies in deceased relatives, gender and old age.
2. Jaime Lannister – 72.91 %
The reasons for Jamie's possible death are the same as those we have already given for Tyrion.
1. Daenerys Targaryen – 83.77 %
The beauty Daenerys, who comes from the Targaryen house, will have the hardest time surviving the last season of the series. It doesn't help that the dragon will no longer be able to protect her.
Will the predictions turn out to be true? You will find out in the next calendar year.
