When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. There is no middle ground.

Now that we're getting closer and closer to the end of the series, that powerful quote from Cersei back in season one is proving to be true.

Any week, anyone can go, and anyone can lose or gain a lot of power.

In "The Spoils of War," there are significant power shifts, as Daenerys wins a major battle after a major loss last week, and Cersei's wins come back to haunt her. This week many characters made good and bad decisions, and they all had some consequences.

Every week, we'll round up which character was the smartest, the dumbest, the luckiest, and more in our power rankings.

Here's the "Game of Thrones" power rankings based on season seven episode four, "The Spoils of War" in order of who won and who lost.
