"There’s a reason the Game of Thrones fandom jokes that the most useful thing Melisandre did was light a bunch of torches in the final battle against the Night King and even that barely made a difference.
I’m currently rewatching and there are three episodes I’m aware of that cover a single nighttime battle (Blackwater, Castle Black, and Winterfell) and Blackwater is the only one that feels properly lit."
"I couldn’t see a thing the whole episode! When the Dothraki had their swords on fire, I said 'finally! Some light!' But they all get snuffed out immediately, and we were left squinting for the next 45 minutes."
