'Game of Thrones': Before Season 8 slays you with the biggest battle sequence on TV, here are the top 5 battle scenes from the show

Every single battle was fought under some dire consequences, and the sheer ingenuity behind their choreography is what made them unique.

'Game of Thrones' is nothing without its epic battle sequences, and we are already looking forward to Season 8 that contains the longest battle scene ever filmed on screen. The scene is apparently so meticulously petrifying, and at the same time so very long, that all the actors whose characters are best known on the show for their battle skills expressed gladness when it was over.

Every actor in his/her interview have stated at least once how the end battle has both physically and mentally draining.
