Littlefinger is probably the single best player in the Game of Thrones.

00:04

He's indirectly led to the downfall of at least three major houses

00:08

and has advanced his own station at every opportunity.

00:11

In this video, we're going to explore what it is that he does that makes him win

00:15

and how deviating from his strategy may lead to the end of his winning streak.

00:19

Two caveats before we begin — first,

00:21

spoilers through season six and some speculation into season seven.

00:25

And two, don't do the things that Littlefinger does —

00:28

it's fun to analyze Littlefinger's manipulations and learn how you can avoid them in your own life

00:33

but don't be a liar or a backstabber — it's just not cool. So let's begin.

00:37

Game of Thrones is all about power.

00:40

Some people like Cersei use their position to command others.

00:44

Seize him.

00:48

Cut his throat.

00:50

Stop.

00:52

Ah, wait.

00:54

I've changed my mind; let him go.

00:55

Power is power.

00:58

...then there's people like The Mountain

01:00

who literally just dominate through physical brute force.

01:09

But in the long run, it's those who wield power more subtly that excel in the game

01:14

and perhaps no one is more subtle than Petyr.

01:17

He is the ultimate player in the game because he gets other people to do exactly what he wants

01:22

without them even knowing that he has influenced them.

01:25

How does he do this? Well, first off, Petyr is able to hide his influence

01:29

because he doesn't try to convince anyone of anything.

01:32

He may make a few persuasive points but he very quickly drops the discussion

01:37

when he senses that someone is digging in their heels.

01:40

Watch how quickly he allows Sansa to stay in King's Landing after offering her help escaping and having her deny him.

01:46

I can say so much of her in you.

01:49

She was like a sister to me.

01:54

For her sake, I'll help get you home.

02:01

King's Landing is my home now.

02:05

Look around you; we're all liars here.

02:11

Every one of us is better than you.

02:15

Instead of insisting, he just plants the seed of doubt in Sansa's head

02:18

and then lets her ponder it until later on, she literally begs for his help.

02:23

You said you'd take me home.

02:25

You said King's Landing was your home.

02:29

With the property of the crown, stealing you would be treason if you were to tell just one advisor.

02:33

I won't tell anyone.

02:35

How do I know?

02:36

Because I'm a terrible liar; you said so yourself.

02:40

Please, Lord Baelish, tell me what to do — tell me when.

02:45

In addition, once Littlefinger has made his case to persuade someone,

02:49

he will immediately make it clear that the decision is theirs.
