Hypable’s second annual shipping tournament, BattleShips, continues with a knockout round to see which couple has enough of a fan following to kick Sansa and Sandor out of their spot for the Game of Thrones nomination!

Earlier this week we announced BattleShips 2.0, a fandom shipping tournament that will pit couple against couple from some of the biggest shows on Hypable to see which ship has the biggest voice. We’ve pre-selected the couples and the shows and put all the runners-up from last year up against each other, but now it’s your turn to try and vote them out!


Your goal in this round is to vote for the ship you think should represent Game of Thrones as BattleShips continues onto the show VS show stage. We’ve pre-selected Sansa and Sandor since they were runners-up in last year’s nomination for the show, but if enough fans vote for a different couple they might get knocked out of the competition!

You’ll have 24 hours to vote Sansa/Sandor out of BattleShips and replace them with a ship of your choice or vote for them to stay! But here’s the catch: Sansa/Sandor will have an additional 200 votes added onto their numbers when the polls are over, to make knocking them out of their spots that much harder. After all, they were the runners-up last year and it’s going to take some serious fan power to kick them out!


Use the poll below to vote for your favorite ship from Game of Thrones. If you’d like to vote anonymously simply select your ship and then when the pop-up comes up select “keep vote anonymous,” and make sure that you have pop-ups enabled.

And don’t forget: Sansa/Sandor will get 200 additional votes when the poll ends.

Also, a reminder for people who don’t like reading long passages of text: Arya/Gendry do not qualify this year because they won last year’s BattleShips nominations.



Check out the list of couples set to take the stage as BattleShips 2.0 continues with the knockout rounds over the next two weeks. After each couple is nominated we’ll enter them into a bracket-styled competition where they’ll go head to head until one ship is titled Hypable’s Ship of the Year.
