The TV Euron sucks.
Yep. Weakest part of the later seasons was introducing a (somehow) unbeatable antagonist out of noooowhere.

They could have easily worked him in instead of DOOORNE in Season 5. Condense Dorne by having Cersei call back Myrcella and Trystane in the opening parts of Season 5. Have Euron make an alliance with the Tyrells to re-take the Iron Islands. Have Marg send Jaime (and Bronn, since HBO loved his "Q level", to isolate Cersei and narrow Cersei's allies.

Seeing Euron as a complete (and worthy) badass in Season 5 would have been awesome and made his heel turn in Season 7 much more satisfying.
