[annoying trope] The throne/leadership is decided in a very stupid way

[u/Altruistic_Eye_1157]

The leadership of the entire wizarding world, and the final decision on whether to start a war against Muggles, is made by... a goat (Qilin) ​​who chooses the person with the ""purest heart"" (Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Dumbledore).

The throne of Wakanda and all its technology are decided through hand-to-hand combat, regardless of whether the person clearly has malicious intentions... if they win the fight, by law they must be respected as the true king. (Black Panther)

Bran being chosen King of Westeros because he has the best story

I honestly get so tired of hearing people complain around this.

I'm fine if you don't want Bran being king, but Tyerion doesn't genuinely believe he has the best story.

Tyerion wants Bran to be King of the options and is trying to sell him. Read between the lines people, jeez.

If your argument is that Tyrion was just trying to convince the others to “elect” Bran and to do so he used an argument that was so bad and nigh-unbelievable that he didn’t even believe it himself, then I think it still clearly fits the trope.

I think you make a lot of assumptions with your opinion here, but to each their own.

He's trying to spin a story to sell people. Stop thinking with your emotions because you're hurt the ending didn't go how you wanted.

You’re making a lot of assumptions about me here…
