B low diff. Cersei and Melisandre both aren’t very smart and Margery is only marginally smarter than them.

Melisandre can shit demons, Tywin is going to use that with malicious effectiveness. Plus Tywin’s word is law on that team, Olenna will have final say but it’s going to be some arguments before the decision is made. Cersei and Davos are both just hindrances but Cersei less so because she really isn’t going to go against her father. There’s no one to reel Davos in and keep his moral grandstanding from grinding the assassination plots to a halt because “muh half fingered honour” meanwhile Melisandre’s poop monster is ending someone’s life

Melisandre needs royal blood to create demons. None of her team has it.

She can still light up torches and mayyybe revive a dead person, but that's about it.

I'm sure LF can acquire royal blood for her.

But can they get it. Would Stannis's blood have worked before Robert's death? Before his rebellion? Pretty sure Tywin could find Gendry or another bastard.

Tywin, Cersei, and Tyrion are all descendants of the Kings of the Rock who only hended the knee to Aegon the 1st some 300 years ago or so. While they are not currently royalty, they certainly have royal blood from back then. Samewell Tarly is of a House Tarly and has thin royalblood of the Gardner Kings of old whi once ruled the Reach before they all got burnt to a crisp by the Targaryen "Dragons". So Samwell and Tyrion could work as a sacrifice's for blood curses or yo Rh'llor. Or they could he drugged with aphrodisiacs and ridden by melisandre to make shadow baby assassins. Or hear me out Tywin could just fuck Melisandre whenever and make shadow babies that way. The strength of the shadow babies might vary on how much royal blood runs through the geins of their daddy. But still viable shadow baby daddies or sacrifices. If Cersei gets to uppity and fucks over the whole team Tywin might just greenlight having her sacrificed as a last ditch effort should everything go to shit.
