The 11 Most Important Game of Thrones Season 7 Moments (So Far)

We're itching hardcore for the new season of Game of Thrones. With the delayed July premiere date pretty far off, we've got plenty of time to drive ourselves wild with theories and speculation. Luckily for us, there are already a few things we can speculate on. In the past month, HBO has released two mysterious trailers that seem ambiguous on the surface. However, as we've learned with Game of Thrones, it pays to dig deep. Here are the most important moments we've picked up on so far. Make sure you catch up on the other season seven details to get a full picture.

01
The Three Heads of the Dragon
HBO

The Three Heads of the Dragon

One of the most compelling theories in the series focuses on Daenerys's three dragons . . . and the three individuals who are destined to ride them. This brief shot from the first teaser could hint at the the theory.

02
A Trio of Ruthless Leaders
HBO

A Trio of Ruthless Leaders

With Jon Snow as the King in the North, Cersei Lannister as the reigning Queen of the Seven Kingdoms, and Daenerys Targaryen as the Mother of Dragons and Queen of the Andals, it's clear that all are suiting up for the ultimate fight. The real question is, who will end up on top?

03
More Death and Destruction
HBO

More Death and Destruction

This moment hearkens back to the most recent finale, when Cersei Lannister destroys a huge chunk of King's Landing with the ever-dangerous wildfire. It may serve as a reminder of what we've seen, but we can't help but feel like it also signifies what's to come.

04
A Queen on Her Rightful Throne
HBO

A Queen on Her Rightful Throne

Based on the second trailer, it looks like Daenerys finally makes it home to Dragonstone. This is the Targaryen's ancestral throne, and it also signifies that Dany has officially made it to Westeros. Here we go, y'all.

05
A Clash of the Houses
HBO

A Clash of the Houses

The first trailer shows 3D renderings of all the house sigils, and they're all about to collide with deadly force. We have a feeling a lot of alliances and betrayals are in our future.

06
The Reign of the Mad Queen
HBO

The Reign of the Mad Queen

Having lost all of her children and lashed out with wicked and deadly force, it's clear Cersei is not one to f*ck with. There's a solid chance this will only manifest in scarier and more vicious ways as we near the end.

07
The Breaking of the Wheel
HBO

The Breaking of the Wheel

Consider the ominous words of Daenerys: "Lannister, Targaryen, Baratheon, Stark, Tyrell. They're all just spokes on a wheel. This one's on top, then that one's on top, and on and on it spins, crushing those on the ground." As the sigils all crumble, we can't help but wonder if these historic houses as we know them will all be destroyed.

08
All Hail the King in the North
HBO

All Hail the King in the North

After the Battle of the Bastards, Jon Snow has proven his worth as a warrior. With the help of Sansa, it seems like he's finally ready to let loose a battle cry and fight.

09
A Callback to the Days of the First Men
HBO

A Callback to the Days of the First Men

When all the sigils crumble to the ground, they break into a strikingly familiar formation: it's the pattern we see when Bran watches the Children of the Forest create the first White Walker. That has to mean something, right?

10
Winter Has Come
HBO

Winter Has Come

Cersei is in a relatively mild climate. Westeros and King's Landing often seem to be bathed in sunshine. But Cersei's icy breath can only mean one thing: even the lower parts of the land are feeling that Winter chill.

11
The Blue Eye of the White Walker
HBO

The Blue Eye of the White Walker

Both teasers pull out to reveal the icy blue eye of the greatest threat in Westeros: the White Walkers. It's kind of eerie that both clips seem to unfold under the watchful eye of this foe. Maybe the houses should stop clashing and band together for the greater good. And maybe they'll realize this all too late.
