The Spoils of War is easily the best episode of Season Seven thus far. While the last few episodes have been very good, they've felt a little lacking in comparison to the previous seasons. Not this one though. Spoils has some of the best, most exciting and well-directed moments in the Game of Thrones canon.
The fights are amazing and the battle we actually see take place is powerful; and the conclusion of the fight emphasizes how allegiances in war are a costly thing when the side is not the right one to choose. Tyrion didn't want Jaime to run charging at Daenerys like a 'fucking idiot', and even though they're brothers on opposite sides of a war, you don't want to see either of them come to harm. They're simply in a fight they want to see come to a not-so-bitter end.
Spoils of War is another great and massively important chapter in Game of Thrones.
