Arya has to lure the waif out and lead her to her trap, but she was caught by surprise. Her rest and the excellent care of Ms Crane helped her heal enough to jump,slide and roll. Milk of the poppy is strong. Stick fight training is like the original Karate Kid training with wax on wax off, she learned other skills but didn't know it.

Some of those folks lived with giants and watched the Night King raise the dead so it takes more to impress them. The Night Watch is still trying to digest everything that just happen with the coup and then Jon getting even. The Norther houses got their hands full with crazy Bolton and some houses switching sides, they trying to recover.

In all these battles everyone has to travel over a distance to get to the battle that's why they always get there at the last minute. Think about it Littlefinger had to get the raven gather the troops and start marching. The same with Tywin and Stannis.

Someone already explained this she killed the top guys like Michael Corleone. Khan Drogo was not interested but he changed his mind so the others could change too after a speech from Danaerys on a Dragon.
