Forgive me if someone has pointed this out already (from all I can tell, I haven't seen it), but I was re-watching season 1 for the first time since seeing season 6 and I noticed an interesting parallel between Ramsey Bolton and Robb Stark. In season 1 episode 9 when Robb captures Jamey, Jamey offers to settle the war in single combat to which Robb declines explaining,"If we did it your way, you'd win. We're not going to do it your way." Flash forward to 'Battle of the Bastards' (again, episode 9), before war, Ramsey meets with John and John makes the same offer of single combat to which Ramsey now declines. What's interesting is that, not only do Ramsey and Robb give virtually identical responses, they were also both ultimately defeated in battle (or in Robb's case, betrayed by former "allies").
