Yeah, the amount of plot armor lately has been frustrating. Characters miraculously survive situations over and over and over again. Overall I think the worst example of that is Arya, I can't count the number of times she should've died. You just have to kinda accept the fact that it's basically LoTR at this point and enjoy the show knowing that it's unlikely the books (should they ever come out) will follow.
