If you steal a used/pillaged/discarded Kingsroad from your opponent using Euron, then use it for marshaling next round, does it go back to the opponent's discard pile to be stolen again? And if so, was that really intended...? Potentially infinite Kingsroads seems pretty insane.

Please post the full text of cards for which you are asking questions (or include the cardgamedb images).
Reaction: After Euron Crow’s Eye discards a card using pillage, put a location from the losing opponent’s discard pile into play under your control.
We can't speak as to whether it was intended or not, but that's certainly how it works. A Kingsroad sacrificed by your opponent will wind up in their discard pile, but once you take control of it with Euron, once you use it, it'll go back to that discard pile, as per Ownership and Control, p.14
xxIf a card would enter an out of play area of a player who does not own the card, the card is placed in its owner's equivalent out of play area instead.
So yes, if you win a challenge with Euron against an opponent that used a Kingsroad, you could potentially generate a kingsroad for your "next" turn every round.
Before you decry that as overpowered, keep in mind that you can easily compare Euron to Tywin - who is also a 7 cost 6 str tricon with renown, but guarantees you 2 gold a turn, rather than "maybe" netting you 3 (if you win a challenge and your opponent has sacrificed a kingsroad - which they could just not do if you have euron on the board), I would say that Tywin has the clear advantage here. While that's not a 'bad' use of Euron, the real meat is when you steal one of those lovely 3 cost locations (or Ghaston Grey)!
