Who is supposed to be the greatest fighter in the Game of Thrones universe?

[CementPizza]

He's not....trust me

ohhhhh, interdasting...

[FeralBeast]

brb guetting killed by a coward stuard

notsureifsrs

take the dragon glass dagger away and I'd like to see any ******* kill a whitewalker.

howland reed, etc would get wrecked 1v1 sword fight with one of these beasts.

[Pastier911]

Honestly I don't think Jaime is as good as everyone thinks. He got destroyed by brienne, yes yes i know he was famished and such but brienne was said to be fighting to contain Jaime, while Jaime was fighting to kill.

I'd say Arthur Dayne, Barristan the Bold, Khal Drogo, The Hound. Not in any specific order. At the tournament where Gregor goes crazy he's fended off by The Hound who like in the Brienne and Jaime instance was fighting to contain, not kill.

edit: apparently Jaime won a tourny at 13 so he must be pretty beast, but i stand strong with my point.

[walshyn93]

Just started reading the first book and pretty sure the hound was mentioned as being the best near the start when the king's company visited Winterfell. He's portrayed as being big and clumsy with only brute force in the tv version though.

[gatovolador]

The terrible trio has two reasonably deadly guys in it, Bronn and Pod (who killed one of Kingsguard to defend Tyrion, I believe).

[Mizzoutiger26]

What about Qoran Half-Hand?

[Pastier911]

Says gimli could possibly beat the mountain


Says boromir would probably beat Ned Stark and how he's mostly a good general/lord.

lol Tyrion would absolutely wreck frodo

lol Tyrion would absolutely wreck frodo

Frodo wasn't much of a fighter. Tyrion was a lot smarter and meaner.
Frodo was just a giant walking furry pu55y.

[frank112]

In my opinion, it will be Jon Snow.

Don't worry, I won't give the book 6 spoilers out...

[Soonerjohn]

I'm going with the black dragon. Should be able to easily kill any of the other fighters mentioned so far. Or if it has to be a human, it would Danerys, since she controls the dragons.

[Blitzy]

A Faceless Man, like Jaqen H'ghar, is probably the most dangerous.

But how they would fair in 1v1 combat versus someone like the Mountain is hard to say because their style is assassination.

[Blitzy]

Can't wait to see this fuker in the show. We don't really have any idea of how his fighting skills would be though.

[Madvillainy]

taking into account all 5 books,












































i'd go with barristan for living people.

jaime is overrated as fuk. he got tooled by a girl. even if he was weaker at that point, that's bush-league. and with no sword hand now, he doesn't belong in any conversation about best fighter.

arthur dayne was regarded as the best out of dead people.

[AKMuzzle]

dont know if anyone has mentioned it but...Gregor Clegane (The Mountain.)

Dude beheaded a horse

[demadio]

In a duel, "The Mountain" would be rather hard to beat

Oberyn, that's all i'll say.

Stop saying the mountain guys, srs

[boilermaker06]

This conversation should be for book readers only. If you've only seen the show, you don't know what you're talking about.

The sword dancer? The Mountain? u srs?

There's no real answer for this because they all have different fighting styles and the only things we know about the old-school legends is from stories.

Personally, I love the Hound. He's definitely not #1. Top 10 though.

[testing101]

Why do people keep mentioning Arthur Dayn when he got his ass beat several times by Rhaegar Targaryen

[Woody72]

Victarion Greyjoy is pretty badass. No idea how he'd fair in 1v1 combat though.

[henrycole]

what about jaqen?????????? he wrecked mad fools

someone could just hire him and then mark HIM for death... strong loophole.

[Sinix]

Khal Drogo was never properly trained. He'd get wrecked by prime Jaime, Robert, Dayne, Barristan.

[Woody72]

After careful scrutinization i've came to the conclusion that Ser Dontos is infact the greatest fighter in Westeros.

[CementPizza]

Khal Drogo was never properly trained. He'd get wrecked by prime Jaime, Robert, Dayne, Barristan.

He was ok against naked sandy horse people but would get pwnd by real warriors. He was also pu55y whipped w/k and not bright at all.

[WhatsaGime]

I'd say top 3 are/were:

Arthur Dayne, Sword of the Morning
Aemon Targaryen, the Dragon Knight
Barristan Selmy, the Bold

Are they supposed to be invincible or something? Yet to see one actually fighting.

The terrible trio has two reasonably deadly guys in it, Bronn and Pod (who killed one of Kingsguard to defend Tyrion, I believe).

Bron was pretty beast when he killed off that champion in full plate armor and shield.

[The_Albatross]

itt: people arguing over fictional characters, and their fighting abilities, as if they are real people

[WhatsaGime]

They generally lose to Kings and Princes on purpose don't they?

People keep mentioning him because every character that talks about him has nothing but respect and admiration for him.

Because discussions about 10 pitbulls fighting 3 giraffe's are so much more enlightening.

[angryguywalking]

Implying Oberyn won that fight...
