What about the Mountain?
This universe is an uncaring and amoral place. It owes you nothing and you owe it nothing. If you can wrest happiness from it, at any point, then cherish it. Revel in that happiness.

He lost a couple of tourneys to Rhaegar but I'd probably still go with Dayne, Eddard stark was meant to be a monster back in the day and he said that Dayne was the best he ever saw. He's pretty much remembered as being the perfect knight. If you're talking living people then it's a harder question, Loras Tyrell is a monster but he's too small and Brienne of Tarth is better than him but she's mentally weak.Originally Posted by Drhunglow
Maybe give Barristan a few black coffee's and he's the best, long as he doesnt break a hip.**#3 always delivers crew**

Dude is too old. Maybe Jamie when he has a hand and is fully healthy with his confidence. Hound is a big fuker but never seemed that skilled, just brute force.Originally Posted by DatPass

Alive... and based on current age I'd say it'd be out of Loras and Jamie.

Men like Arthur Dayne and Barristan Selmy are legendary in Westeros for their prowess. Both were Kingsguard.Originally Posted by rnaco

definitely Barristan the Bold in his day. Apparently Robert Baratheon was pretty good with his hammer back in the day also.

Barristan Selmy in his prime would of gave anyone a run for their money. He's been in more battles than most others and still lives to tell the tales.
Jamie Lannister was a great swordsman at tourneys, but how many real battles had he been in? No doubt he's good but I think he's more talk than anything. Likewise for Loras Tyrell.

Living? The vibe that I got from the book was that Barristan was the shizz. I'd think the list is like this;
Barristan Selmy (even old as fukk)
Jaime Lannister (before losing a hand)
Thoros of Myr (won the melee at the hands tournament with his flaming sword)
Honourable mentions include;
Dancing Master (before dying, obviously)
Khal Drogo (before dying, obviously)
Loras Tyrell
Brienne
Ned Stark (before dying, obviously)

I get it from this fight, 7 on 3 and they almost won. Dayne apparently almost kills Stark but Reed saves himOriginally Posted by DatPass

Daario Naharis and Greyworm? They seem to be pretty competent just don't seem to have as many feats at the moment.
Here's a picture of Daario in some nice armour.

Ser Gerold "Darkstar" Dayne
Drogo was unbeaten though, so don't count him out.
Selmy is a has-been
Arthur Dayne is the socially acceptable answer, if you want to be one of the herd.
thing is, Arthur Dayne is dead while Gerold Dayne is still alive.Last edited by surf junkie; 06-11-2013 at 09:26 AM.

He's reported dead, same in the show. We don't actually see him die since the chapter is from Arya's POV.Originally Posted by henrycole
^ They're definitely not all equal. As of the finale of season 3, I'd say the most formidable warrior is Gregor Clegane.
