Jaime vs brienne: Jaime was starved, fatigued, hasn’t touched a sword in a year, his hands were tied and he used a sword that wasn’t made for someone of his size. Also, in the books he destroys Brienne, but only looses because he couldn’t finish her off before he got tired. So she took the chance to just tackle him. So she never even bested him in swordfighting, she won because she tackled him!

[@jameshedrick4490]

The same actually applies to her fight with the Hound. He was malnourished, worn out, and suffering from an infected wound. Had she fought him at his full strength she would have been beaten and severely humiliated first.

PLEASE stop putting Ned on these lists. He was an average swordsman. GRRM said himself he was a “competent” swordsman. He himself never prided himself on his skills.

[@jameshedrick4490]

Jaime Lannister is always underrated because of losing his hand. We never get to truly see him in action in the show before that happens but we do hear about who he was before. He became Kingsguard at 16 and killed many opponents before that. In the battle with Rob Stark Theon says he "cut down ten northmen before they could take his sword." Jaime deserves more respect both for his skill and for the intelligence and bravery he shows in becoming a strong swordsmen even without his hand.

Elite fighters like Syrio, Robert, Jorah, Bron, Oberon, Gregor, Brienne, Grey Worm, who are the best fighters of their time without having near "superhuman" Skill 4. Generally very good fighters who stick out like Jon, Beric, Tormund, Loras, Stannis or Thoros of Myr (basically any "soldier" character wo slaughters numerous nameless enemies) 5.

It's hard to tell now who would win as they have both come so far since their fight in the mountain pass. The Hound has had some rough runs though and it seems like Brienne always manages to be one step ahead of her opponent. Example: when she rocked Ser Loras. He was an extremely skilled knight.

Wait, brienne beating the hound once doesn't warrant such a large gap in ranking. Anybody into combat sports will tell you that winning one fight does not always mean you are the better fighter, anything can happen in a fight. Not only that but the hound was injured and very tired and malnourished. Even arya noted how weak it was making him stating that he was walking much slower than usual. So for the hound to be in that situation and fight on par with brienne until he lost is a huge feat. Also I highly doubt brienne would be higher than snow

Loras was renowned for his jousting but he was also a very good fighter. The scene where he fights Brienne was the championship match in a tournament with 120 participants. Meaning he beat out 118 other people besides Brienne, so thats pretty damn good and if I recall correctly the Hound was not wounded at all before his fight with Brienne, but maybe you can refresh my memory on his injury... Lastly it was Jaime that pulled the sword on Brienne so obviously he felt strong and confident enough at that point to take on Brienne. Face it man, Brienne is a badass.

In the books, during this scene it is mentioned explicitly that Jaime didn't believe the Cleganes to be in his top three; he thinks that while they're bigger, he could beat them easily with speed and technique. Barristan's definitely on that list, but I'm not sure as to the others. Garlan Tyrell could probably give Jaime a run for his money, but I'm not so sure Jaime's aware of his skill, so he might not be on the list.

@@jaehohansolo139 Jon is surely one of the best swordsmen but it would be a shame listing him with those

[@ruste_7747]

MY list would be: (Only show including) 1. Arthur Dayne 2. Barristan Selmy 3. Jaime Lannister (both Hands) 4. Either Jon or the Hound (don't underestimate Hounds strength) 5. Same here as with 4 6. Brienne of Tarth 7. Ned Stark 8. Jorah 9. Daario (isn't really a swordsman though) 10. Karl Tanner

[@fredl.7696]

The Hound #9????

[@Bowfella]

Fred L. He deserves #6 Imo. But Brienne beat him fair and square. Both were malnurished traveling on the same Terrain with a companion. Now that doesn't make her fucking #3 that's for sure. The hound relies on his brute strength. Brienne beat him because she could almost match his strength, had more refined skills, and was younger. In effect she nullified all of the hounds advantages.

[@ColinsBaldGrandma]

the show added their fight, so in the books (where this list should draw from) its not decided

[@geoffreyauguste6678]

Fair and Square?? the hound was fighting off an infection that was slowing him down(as stated by Arya) and possibly weakening him. they were no where near the same physical condition at the time. the Hound had a severe handicap which is why Brienne won

[@Vardaris]

Actually the excuse that he was infected doesn't count. If you remember their fight the Hound lost relatively easily in the sword fight against Brienne because Brienne is just superior as a swordfighter. He then tried to make the duel a dog fight where he would have a decent chance and probably win but his infection had weakened him and deteriorated his strength and stamina.

[@mayzerify5525]

Breinne was not malnurished, and the hound had an infected wound making him far slower and weaker than usual not to mention brienne was using the lighter valyerian steel

[@JohnnyTheBoyy]

Brienne shouldn’t even be on the list she only beat Jamie and Sandor because they were both injured. Jamie had his hands tied was injured and was weak from being prisoner. Sandor was injured and as Arya pointed out because of it he was walking a lot slower than usual because of it and she had valyrian steel.

[@clungemagnet3388]

V The Villain with the Valyrian steel through you have to remember it’s not the sword that’s good it’s the person that wields it.

[@Namitho19]

in the books brienne doesnt fight sandor, because obviously he will drestroy her, she beat jaime just because he was tied and tired, and she beat loras just because they are using training weapons and she use her wieght, in a real fight loras would kill her ten times before she could come close to him, the only real fight than she wins is againt some bloody mummers and rorge

[@nickdentoom1173]

@Majormarsbar Nope, since GRRM himself has admitted that Barristan and Arthur Dayne are on the same lvl skill wise, but because of Daynes sword, Dayne has to slight edge. Without the Sword, Barristan is better than Dayne.

[@JamesL0717]

@Nick den Toom You mean without the sword, Barristan is even with Dayne not better.

[@H3Vtux]

"Brienne remembered her fight with Jaime Lannister in the woods. It had been all that she could do to keep his blade at bay. He was weak from his imprisonment, and chained at the wrists. No knight in the Seven Kingdoms could have stood against him at his full strength, with no chains to hamper him. Jaime had done many wicked things, but the man could fight! His maiming had been monstrously cruel. It was one thing to slay a lion, another to hack his paw off and leave him broken and bewildered." -Brienne, A Feast For Crows

[@Bavarian_Lifting]

The Hound would easily beat the four people placed ahead of him lmao

[@godemperorofmankind3.091]

how? he was barely keeping up with gregor even pre zombiefication.

[@nojuskasperavicius81]

First - Oberyn Martell

[@My_name_is-]

johnnyXx4321 In the book, Oberon Martell was actually just as good with a sword as he was with a spear!😈😈

[@thn02]

3rays Still no chance against Ser Arthur Dayne

[@idontspeakjapanese6289]

Ser Barristan Selmy is probably the only person in GoT that could match Arthur Dayne in a fair fight.....

[@divine4099]

Yes, he should be here considering they included Daario who's not a swordsman.

[@rubeng9649]

We haven’t seen him with a sword

[@frieza1385]

Where's Arya?

[@talalhani9745]

A.N.D. Hahahaha funny

[@noahjohn4894]

A.N.D. she wasn't that good when this video was made

[@frieza1385]

Niko Noah bro the video was made in 2017, she had a duel with Brianne.

[@ragingpotato-y-]

Id consider arya as an assassin due to her time im the house of the faceless men

[@zetsu12344]

Still as assasin she should not be able to stand in single combat with a swordsmen, but she did fight Brian, and arguably she did beat her

[@Esposo77]

Jon snow is underrated

[@fulmato3440]

FINESSE BULL thank u .. I like his fights

[@sebbe3391]

[@hotguymcgee9914]

Emad AB he fights dirty. and he also had 2 shortswords so thats an advantage

[@sebbe3391]

[@adityagugale3674]
