The High Sparrow is feeling pretty good about himself right now. Margaery may be passing notes to his enemies, but she is relatively impotent toward him at the moment. Not a lot of people can get away with telling the Queen she doesn't need to enjoy sex she just needs to wait it out. Personally I think the HS may be giving Tommen a little too much credit, I can't imagine many 14 year old boys lasting long enough to require patience....

Compared to his median draft position, no one has overperformed more than the High Sparrow. He has taken a firm hold on the trust of King Tommen and has neutralized the threat against the faith from the Lannister and Tyrell factions. I'm not sold on him surviving to see the end of the Game of Thrones, but I would count on him playing a prominent role for at least a little while longer.

The High Sparrow is having a very quiet, very successful season so far. He is expertly handling Tommen and the Tyrells. The Lannister twins will be a thorn in his side but he seems incapable of dealing with them in a way that doesn't infuriate them further.

The High Sparrow is juuuuust outside the Top 5 in scoring this season, he continues to be a major thorn in the side of House Lannister and he is more than willing to flex his muscles with Ser Jaime. Thankfully for the other Sparrows, the Kingslayer didn't call the Sparrows bluff and end his tenure as the High Septon.

Is anyone more condescending in the Seven Kingdoms than the High Sparrow? He manages to be holier than thou while also being the best at being humble. Very impressive start for the wily veteran. Expect him to continue to be both wily and a veteran going forward.

The High Sparrow pulled his dick out and put it on the royal table last season. He's got two Tyrell's imprisoned, embarassed the Queen in a way no one had thought possible before, AND has an army of rabidly loyal religious fantatics. This could go one of two ways: either he's a genius and a top 10 finisher in points this season or he tries to do too much too fast and everything falls apart and he dies a horrific death. Either way, worth a third round pick if you ask me
