The moment you’ve been waiting for (if you are a major Game of Thrones nerd, that is) has finally arrived: ~Cleganebowl~.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with this term, Cleganebowl is what fans call the super-anticipated showdown between brothers Sandor “The Hound” Clegane and Gregor “The Mountain” Clegane-who basically hate each other and have a violent and dramatic history.

The buildup to the brothers’ fight has been seasons in the making, and it went down in Sunday’s penultimate episode of Game of Thrones. To quickly recap: The Hound managed to sneak into King’s Landing with Arya during the complete clusterf*ck that was Daenerys destroying the city.

So, who won? Well, The Hound stabbed The Mountain, then The Mountain straight-up pulled the sword out of himself. *Then* he squeezed The Hound’s brain and eyes (!!!), and then The Hound stabbed his brother in the head. It was honestly the most intense and gruesome thing ever, and yeah, they both died by falling into a pit of fire. Did Cleganebowl live up to the hype? The reaction is mixed:

In short: meh.
