I mean I feel bad, but at the same time he was an idiot for standing so close while trying to get a confession from a much larger stronger person

Just academically speaking how does it work if both combatants die at the same time? Mistrial?

Yeah it's not enough to kill one of the best characters the series have ever seen they have to make it a gory, gruesome death.

Why can't that happen to the bad guys?

Technically one died via eye/head explosion before the other died of the stabbings

Oberyn died first obviously. at that moment the proceedings are over and the verdict is rendered. So the Mountain dying doesnt matter I guess.

god drat it. I really liked the character of Oberyn.

I would guess that the rules are dictated by whoever is running the trial, so Tywin or Cersei.

Yay for due process and the medieval sense of justice.

That was awesome. I couldn't help but just laugh out loud. I had been conditioned enough that I knew coming in that he just had to lose. No way does he or Tyrion get a happy ending. Yet somehow they managed to sucker me, and by the time it was almost over I was safe and happy in the knowledge that he pulled it off and saved Tyrion's bacon. Bravo.

If at the end of a war story you feel that some tiny bit of rectitude has been salvaged from the larger waste, you have been made the victim of a very old and terrible lie

I would imagine whoever dies last "wins." Otherwise you'd end up with parties claiming, "No wait he could totally die from that gut wound any day now!"

But yeah the medieval legal standard isn't really known for its strict adherence to precedent so whatever Tywin says goes.

You know..... I can honestly say I never gave a poo poo about Rob Starks death. Sure it was a brutal and interesting scene to watch but I didn't care for his character at all. Oberyn though, had peaked my interest as one of my favorite characters within a very short period of time. And of course Tyrion has always been one of my favorites as well. Damnit.......

The reason Tyrion is guilty is that the Mountain is only mostly dead. There's a big difference between only mostly dead and all dead, as is clearly the case with the Red Viper.

Regy Rusty

Oberyn let his hatred of the Mountain overcome his good sense. The Mountain was a monster, a tool. He was never going to give up Tywin no matter what Oberyn did. All he had to do was walk away, the clear victor and plotted other, more subtle revenge for Tywin.

This is basically the thesis of Game of Thrones.

Why did he even expect the Mountain to "confess"? It's not like he'd be at all ashamed.
