Could the Night King breach the wall without a dragon?
Could the Night King breach the wall without a dragon? He didn’t necessarily need a dragon. What he needed was a way to get his army past the Wall. He lucked out and was handed the single quickest and easiest way of doing that when Dany brought her dragons onto his turf, and he shot one of them down and reanimated it.
Did the Night King plan to get a dragon?
The Night King’s entire plan revolved around waiting for Daenerys and her dragons to arrive – Viserion being the target. Once Dany’s dragon was within shot, game over. After reviving the dragon to be his steed, we’re guessing that his intentions are now solely focused on the Wall.

This theory not only covers the idea of the Night King’s army swimming across, but also why they don’t use their magical winter abilities to freeze the water and walk across. And it’s simple, really: White Walkers are allergic to salt.
Why couldnt the White Walkers pass the Wall?
Despite the fact that the White Walkers can’t go south of the wall. Benjen told Bran and Meera last season it’s because ancient spells were carved into its foundation so the dead can’t pass. As the podcasters point out though we’ve already seen wights beyond the wall in Season 1.
