We already know that Discord is vulnerable to normal diseases and can be killed by simply making him behave like a normal person for extended periods of time.

If anypony dies, it sure as hell won’t be Discord. I think he may be real sad (the touching scene from the trailer with him is fueling my headcanon), but he ain’t dying. That’s Celestia’s job.

They got away with Fluttershy saying the Tree of Harmony was “dying” in S4. I think that was the first time they ever explicitly referred to death without it being a idiom like “I’m dying to know…/I’d kill for a…”. Maybe they only got away with it because it was a tree.

So, what do we think Discord was crying about? He seemed really touched that all the Mane 6 were there, and he was holding a picture of Twilight.

We just got confirmation that episode 3 will be called ||”Uprooted” and it will be about the Tree of Harmony summoning the student six, only for them to find the tree has been destroyed once they arrive there. (Trees killed so far by Hasbro: 2) ||

So it stays destroyed through the two parter? Interesting. Discord couldn’t do it, but Sombra apparently can and can make it stick- Sombra is now the most powerful character, I guess.

So, this brings further credence towards King of Edgy Edge being actually real and not some illusion to sidestep all possible retcons along with using that… thing in the first place instead of a real villain, ughh. Maybe they’ve really stopped caring after all.

I don’t know. There’s chance they’ll get it right, and I’m optimistic. Sombra has always had a lot of potential as a villain, it was just unused because bad writing. I’d rather it be Chrysalis because she’s one of the best villains the show’s got, but I’m sure she’ll show up before the season ends.

You might have your own valid reasons to feel optimistic but I have my own valid reasons to feel the opposite. Let’s leave things like that to avoid uneeded headaches, yes?
 
Plus I never really liked Sombra that much in the first place.
