Surprised by all the love this past episode has received...
Her decision to go back and get herself and her dragon killed seemed so... forced
She had just taken out one of their dragons, and presumably the King... she could've flown back to Dragonstone, grabbed another dragon rider or two, and then they could've gone back to take out the big dragon as a team
Instead, she died a needless death, and her side is also down a dragon...
FWIW Rhaenys was actually holding her own. Meleys was a very skilled dragon in combat. It wasn't really suicide or anything despite Vhagar's size.
How many dragons does each side have? And what are their respective sizes?
Again, I can't believe she turned around and sacrificed her dragon like that!
The Greens right now have 2 truly functional dragons...Vhagar and Dreamfyre (now that Sunfyre is gone)
The Blacks have 4...Rhaenyra's Syrax, Daemon's Caraxes, Baela's Moondancer, and Jacerys' Vermax
So the Blacks still have more dragons than the Greens. The Greens at the moment really just have 1 giant one in Vhagar.
As for their sizes, the order pretty much goes...
1) Vhagar (by a lot)
2) Dreamfyre
3) Caraxes (nearly same size as Dreamfyre)
4) Syrax
5) Vermax
6) Moondancer
Now Helaena likely will never ride Dreamfyre again, so that's why I say Vhagar is pretty much it for for the Greens now.
There are other dragons that are available, per say...one of them being Vermithor, who is roughly the 2nd largest dragon in the world during this time period. It's the one Daemon sang to in S1 of HOTD at Dragonstone.
