I think Robert in his prime would decimate the mountain .

[@Fir3fly798]

Probably not, the only reason Oberyn was able to was because A: he used a weapon with a ton of range, B: he was using multiple poisons (this is more clearly stated in the books, but the poisons were quickly slowing him down and dulling him. It almost seems like cheating but I don’t think there’s clear cut rules in trial by combat except that it is 1v1), C: he had unlimited spears and weaponry and D: Oberyn (again, more clearly highlighted in the book) was using mind games to frustrate the mountain and cause him to swing, miss and tire. Basically Oberyn needed every advantage possible and he still lost technically since the mountain only really died due to all the poison (not his wounds), Robert was a beast but he would stand 0 chance. The mountain was described as such a freak that people believed he was part giant. The books describe him as nearly 8 feet tall, able to wield a 6 foot sword one handed and hold an oakwood Shield with the other. He was described as so freakishly powerful he could cut men and their horse in half with a single strike (think Guts from berserk if you’ve seen it). Robert, although a beast, wouldn’t stand a chance, pretty much no man has proven they could without enormous advantages to tip the fight in their favor. Robert uses a damn war hammer for most of his fighting, assuming he could even land a blow on the mountain his armor makes him almost invincible. The only person who was able to stand toe to toe with him in sword battle has been his younger brother, because he’s described as being almost as freakishly big and strong as Gregor (part of the reason why it’s annoying the show had Brienne “beat” Sandor, because as much as I love Brienne, in no world would she be able to take him on (she basically fights with a little more technique than Sandor, she’s basically fighting a big and stronger version of herself but with less technique). They did the same thing with butchering her sword fight in the show with Jaime, where as the book Jaime is basically playing around with her in the fight and it ends in a draw with them both falling in the River. D&D seemed to do that to make her character more OP and for some dumb female empowerment crap. For context Brienne owns most dudes and even good knights (she basically beats loras the same way she does in the show) but Sandor completely destroys famed knights with his freakish strength and size. She would get beaten handedly sick with an infection or not). Long story short, you have it backwards. Prime Robert would still get straight decimated by the mountain. Sorry.

[@peterisnardi1197]

I think it'd be like Dan Dority vs Captain Joe Turner from that episode of Deadwood...two big brutes just having it out in the street, getting down and dirty when the strength began to fade...

[@beburger2054]

Nah. Sure he could beat the Mountain who Rides, but decimate? Not at all. They're both the same sorta fighter, brutish. Oberyn was the polar opposite and gained advantage with his speed. Bobby B would have to out muscle Gregor. Which is easier said Then ever don3

[@tomneville6763]

He probably could take the mountain, I believe Ned in the books even said that robert was the fiercest warrior in the seven kingdoms in his prime, 6‘6“ of pure muscle. It would be close, but Robert is who I‘d put my money on

[@RighteousPretzel]

Def Robert, the mountain was just brute strength with absolutely no sword or melee skills. While Robert in his prime was a Stag on the battlefield, Robert was smaller than the mountain, but by no means was a small man at 6’6. Ned in the books was unable to even pick up Roberts warhammer, while Robert just swings it around with no trouble. And Robert actually had skill to back up his strength.

[@kittylover62]

[@MrGeorgeFlorcus]

Robert Baratheon's portrayal by Mark Addy is, I think, sometimes overshadowed by the other excellent actors and his short tenure in the T.V. show, but I honestly think he was one of the best parts of the first season. They actually brought a lot of extra humor and depth to his character with the newly added scenes.

[@raziel6304]

Robert is the very definition of a pyrrhic victory. He won the war, crushed his enemies, but lost everything he held dear. And so he spent the last years of his life trying to find whatever glimmer of enjoyment he could, something that would later get him killed.

[@EL-ISS]

He was a "broken man" as the Septin explains in AFFC I think. Except Robert wasn't broken by war, he was broken by loss of love. So like you said, he went on to "drink, f*ck and wh*re himself into an early grave." He never saw a point after that. I always found him as just a funny buffoon of a King. But after having grown up and reread the books, so many more characters are just tragic.

You know if Stannis was named the hand of the King instead of Ned. He would’ve been able to quickly depose of Joffrey and the other Lannisters and become King. Avoiding the whole War of 5 Kings. Ned wouldn’t have been killed and would’ve been a supporter of Stannis so Rob Stark wouldn’t been crowned King. Joffrey would be dead. It may been possible Renly could’ve rebelled but if Stannis was already on the Throne I doubt it and he would’ve been defeated anyway if he had. The only reason Greyjoy declared himself King was because he saw all the chaos as a opportunity. Since there wouldn’t have been that much chaos he probably wouldn’t have either given Stannis reputation as a warrior was almost as good as Roberts.

This is a really good video on Robert makes me appreciate the character alot more thank you for this information ^___^

King Robert is in my top 5 caracters in GoT

You my friend have earned a sub. Well done, good sir.

Robert Baratheon is very similar to King Henry VIII. Both handsome athletic men in their youth, both loved sports. Both were left loads of money by their predecessors which they spent. Both loved their women and both had a ruthless streak. Both became obese through excess and indulgence.

Hes based on edward the IV. Handsome warrior who fought a mad King and won the throne at a young age

I loved this video. It was incredibly well made. Robert was my favorite character from the moment I started reading the books and I was fascinated with his past. I loved how complex his character was especially with how he changed after becoming king. I was really upset when he died. RIP Bobby B.

"I'm not trying to honor you. I'm trying to get you to run my kingdom while I eat, drink and whore my way to an early grave." First king of the Baratheon dynasty, distant cousin to the Targaryens, Demon of the Trident, the Usurper, Whoremonger King... and father of many bastard children.

[@ryanmaher4331]

He was a distant cousin? Cool

[@DeadlyMaelstrom]

@@ryanmaher4331 In the books, Robert Baratheon's grandmother was Princess Rhaelle Targaryen (King Aegon V's youngest child) and is the descendant of Orys Baratheon, bastard half-brother of Aegon the Conqueror himself. His own father Steffon Baratheon was the Mad King's first cousin.

Quality content my guy, keep it up 👍🏽

Forgot to mention his highborn bastard Edric Storm!

Your vids are so good. I fall sleep listening to your vids as they’re so interesting and soothing.

I like Robert's character. I've always thought of him as past and present Robert also.

I love hearing more about this history. I pitied him, but secretly hoping Arya and his bastard genri get married after all this. (no idea if I spelt those right)

[@Tadicuslegion78]

Oh what could have been if Robert, Stannis, and Renly liked each other and Renly wasn’t a Tyrell stooge.

[@MusaMansu]

With Stannis sense of duty, Roberts charisma and Renlys diplomacy they would have been so effective.

[@ladycplum]

People talk about Lysa and Littlefinger's poisoning of Jon Arryn and then blaming it on the Lannisters as the kicking off point to everything that happens afterwards. I say it's Rhaegar and Lyanna's sneaking around without telling anyone, which led to Robert's Rebellion and the end of the Targaryen dynasty, that started everything.

[@ShaunaCheungBoSaanWOGO]

I'm loving your videos and really appreciate your in-depth explanations and how you put everything together. And I agree with most of what you've analyzed and what I disagree with still makes sense in its own way. The only thing is that I wish the audio quality was a little better, but I'm sure you will have that in good time. Subscribed.

[@mixboy79]

His death equaled all hell breaking lose. Great back story, it all falls into place now.

[@overtenemy69]

they honestly need a mini 2-3 season series covering this

[@killadomain]

Robert wasn't in love with lyana. More so in love of the image he had of her.

[@jaywalker4821]

Definitely agreed with this

[@Captain-Axeman]

@Abu Troll al cockroachistan I don't think you understand the story. For the First Rheagar never kindnap her. They ran away and didn't tell anyone. Secound Rhaegar was in love and master Aemon can explain to you. (Aemon and Rhaegar sent letters to each other. Third Reaghar let a profecy go to his head and did not thing clery. Fourth he was forced to love a women and make children with her. And she could't handel to give birth to 3 Children. Fifth Lyanna didn't like Robert at all. And there is a theory about Lyanna being the knight, Rheagar was sendt to find. It's the Seven Kingdom fault that this happend, if they would alow true love this would never happend.

[@joynelbonetdelgado4952]

@@Captain-Axeman True love? His father was the King and he was his heir, should had taken down his mad father and claim the throne for himself and change those rules to see how the great houses reacted to that. There was no chance for him one way or the other Robert would had come after him.

[@Lordgaga160]

She would like killed him.

[@Lordgaga160]

@Abu Troll al cockroachistan wouldnt marry him either. Plus if she did, she be either exicuted, not likely, castle arrest in Winterfell, or be the first woman sent to the wall.

[@nguzabantu5391]

Robert's life resembles the life and times of King Henry VIII of England(House of Tudor).

[@BucketThinkTank14657Nerd]

Robert was such an interesting character in both the book and show and he’s still my fav character. I’ve always thought he was depressed as well, such an active and passionate character forced out of his element, in a job he doesn’t want with a woman he doesn’t love and surrounded mostly by yes men. I think even his issues with the Targaryens are misunderstood as not only did Rhaegar “kidnap” Lyanna but Robert’s parents died while on a mission to look for a bride for Rhaegar to begin with and he and his brothers saw it happen.

[@BaltimoreKid1996]

Please do lyanna stark next!
