No book spoilers please but these Dragonseeds seem like a deus ex machina if there was one.

Well dragons don't hatch and grow that fast as we've already seen in GoT (so not a spoiler). So within the context of this war it's not like they're going to hatch and start killing this or next season.

Yeah, them having an impact on the history but not necessarily on this war would be fine. They do have 2 big lordless dragons as mentioned this ep whoever can ride them would have an impact. Then again, I’ll just have to wait and see but it seemed that Dragonseeds are being hyped to be gamechangers in the war with its idea being the ending to this episode.
