Here's the new video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQ1r37JMEtQ 

This is a Patron-only pre-release. It includes a typo (it's hard to spell Torrhen) and is missing a lil visual effect on the Rhaegar infographic (which is now in the final version of the vid thanks to Patron Joe).

Am not entirely happy with the vocal performance in this vid – it's a bit croaky at parts. Otherwise, it's a solid video. Enjoy!

Stephanie M

Is the final going to have the two separate Audio plugs or just leave the one at the end?

Alt Shift X

It'll have both. In future, I'll probably go with just one or the other – still figuring this stuff out.

Rikke Holmberg

I came here to ask the same question. Did you mean to include two Audible adverts? (now I see, that you did ... ) And I have used many different words to describe your voice, but croaky is definitely not one of them :)

G.R. Penn

I wish Olenna Tyrell were the thumbnail but otherwise, wonderful, as usual!

Stephanie M

They plug between Jon Con and Jeor was close to the end so it I think it seemed a bit much with the longer Audio advertising at the end. I really liked the book reference for the Cersei/Jaime scene. I haven't seen someone bring that up yet.

Joe Randazzo

Well, my Game of Thrones life is now complete.. shout out from Alt Shift X.. woo! Happy to help, btw!

Josh Cooper

Do we think 'Varys having to die in the foreign land' has something to do with the voice that came out with the flames when his nuts were burnt?

Rikke Holmberg

I think you'll get a lot of smack for having two. The one at the end seems natural. The one in the middle of the video seems a bit forced. IMO.

Stephanie M

I was thinking the same thing! One last hoorah for our Queen of Thorns.

G.R. Penn

She had a small part but she completely stole the show.

Rikke Holmberg

Yes. And yes. I thought he would have used Olenna.

TowerOfJon

Another great vid. One minor point: you mention that the other houses of the Reach aren't shown in the show, but in the previous episode Jaime tells Randyll that the other Lords of the Reach look to him for guidance, which I think is the show's way of saying that all the other Tyrell bannermen will follow Randyll's lead. So I infer that when Jaime and Randyll take Highgarden it's in conjunction with all the other Reach Lords, which is why they took it so easily. Not that that makes what you said wrong, just that I think the show spotted the issue and hand-waved their way past it with a line of dialogue.

Alt Shift X

Yeah I think you're right, guys – will try to get the middle ad removed before release. Thanks for the feedback!

Rikke Holmberg

You actually listen! This (among many other things) is why we like you so much :)

Alt Shift X

Yeah well Kinvara pointedly brought that up last season.. So maybe that voice prophesied Varys death in Westeros? It's possible I guess

Josh Cooper

Perhaps Varys has been R'hollor this whole time, knowing all his secrets through the flames when people talk over campfires, at their hearths and when ships are aflame.... *cue suspenseful music*

Alt Shift X

Yeah I agree. We are probably meant to assume that at least some of the other houses of the reach went over to Cersei along with Randyll - but yeah, the show doesn't make a big point of it either way.

Alt Shift X

Maybe Varys has a palantir- I mean a glass candle

Josh Cooper

*gasp!* even better and more much plausible! :) haha. Thanks for the replies my man, have loved your videos for many'a'season now.. share them with all my friends every week. :D Always get excited when your guesses match mine haha

Aliapollo

It was perfect like alway. I like the fact videos are posted on Fridays now. Little goodie starting a weekend. By the way, the Unsullied reference was right in target.

Aliapollo

Alt shift X - Im not sure where or what is a best platform to ask you questions. Yet, I'm dropping it here in hope of you seeing it. Question: is in possible to create a video on golden spiral (PHI) they showed at very beginning? I also wonder about the meaning of the shapes on Quaithe mask & Melisandre's neckless. Thanks!

Caroline

Lost my mind at "lost a layer to his character." Nice!

Kerri Lewis

"The Death of the Sand Sneks" heeheehee

Aliapollo

I think we already count them as dead! :)

Kerri Lewis

I was more tickled that it sounded like he said Sneks instead of Snakes ;)

Alt Shift X

Was wondering if someone would notice that (:

Emily Crocker

Y'all finally convinced me to join! Your teaser in Schwifty Squawd was the final straw. Perhaps I'll be better at lurking here. Maybe.

Stephanie M

Yay Emily! I'm so glad you decided to join. I want you to lurk as much as you want but don't blame me if you don't. I think it's too much fun but we'll see.

Aliapollo

Yeah, haha Nevertheless, this is Alt Shit X and I personally like his tone and accent. :)

G.R. Penn

Now it's perfect. :) Grey Worm certainly deserves a thumbnail. His is coming. But this one, I felt, belonged to Olenna. :)

Aliapollo

I think Harry Potter reference was hilarious. 👌🏼

Fucsia

This was great! I wish these were longer. Maybe like... Two hours longer.

Alt Shift X

Hi mate, you mean the corpse-patterns left by white walkers? As for the hexagonal patterns on Mel and Quaithe, I figured that refers to Asshai, because Mel and Quaithe are both from there. But in Season 6, the pattern also appears on red priests in Meereen. So maybe it just means 'exotic magicy red person'? Maybe worth a video at some point.

Noah McDonald

He mentions that Euron semi-circumnavigates the continent, but doesn't it seem more likely that he just had a fleet of ships waiting in the Iron Islands?

Alt Shift X

Yeah that'd make more sense. But they specifically zoom in on the fancy ironborn ship with extra sails, which presumably represents Euron's SIlence - so I think we're meant to assume that Euron is there.

Rikke Holmberg

Haha, Emily. Yeah, that post of mine turned out to be the best commercial ever for Patreon. I should really get commisions ;)

Patrick Lorang Skoglund

Hey Shift! Dunno if this is the right place to ask, but is there someone who can confirm if episode 4 is leaked, and if so where to watch it? Would of course prefer to watch it at release on HBO, but hate when then internet spoil the whole thing for me. Thanks

G.R. Penn

Episode 4 did indeed leak, however, the sites supporting it are being taken down just as quickly as they are being uploaded (stolen content, laws against that, etc...) I am ashamed to admit that I watched it and can confirm its excellence. Probably the best episode of the season so far. Don't miss it.

Patrick Lorang Skoglund

I appreciate your comment. You got my really stoked now! Can’t wait, and will be watching it on the legal platform.

Aliapollo

Thanks for responding: 1) Yes, also S6EP5 it is in Bran's vision. "Magic Ratio PHI Golden Spiral". Good Vs Evil ? 2) Thanks for consideration! .....Correct, it seems all Red Priests using this symbolic shape in different way. We can see it on a Male Priest in Meereen. Thanks again buddy 👍🏽
