What purpose can Tormund possibly serve to the story at this point? As a pure storytelling device, the highest and best use of his character right now is to kill him off and keep the audience tense.

But again - bad storytelling.
They could be throwing you a curveball with him. He got out of there only to be killed when NK attacks eastwatch. They could brutalize it by him about to shack up with Brienne then death. I'm holding out hope they do something creative.

Really though they need a face you can recognize at the wall. I think that's it.

That would have been amazing. Truly amazing.

Spoiler!
She had a coat

It's a mace with fire in it. And the prevailing theory is Bran sent him.

They only defended their position for a couple minutes and they were about to get overrun.thats not unreasonable.

John escaping is wonky. He may have had a dragonglass dagger or something.

It was like 2.5 days. Still too short even for Drogon but far better than what you think.
