Geralt should have meditated, drank potions and prepared for this fight. Or just flee before it even started.
@brayandiaz8101
I dont think that would have worked. They needed a god damn high class vampire (a monster Geralt acknowledge to be almost impossible to kill) to get rid of Vilgefortz. Vilgefortz is just the definition of pushing your skills on a craft close to the asymptotic limit of perfection. Geralt is a proficient swordsman, but he is far from that.
@@brayandiaz8101 He is more than a skilled swordsman, he was considered the best swordsman in the entire Continent.
@@ThePalebloodHunter I dont think the books make that explicit. For example, we dont know how a fight between him and Bonhart might go.
In the Book, the battle did not last even a minute. Vilgefortz simply beat Geralt with his staff.
This is an audio-visual mode, not a textual one. The viewers need time to see and understand, just how much Vilgefortz is toying with Geralt. That time is more than to read from the book.
i feel like the choice to make it a little longer was better just given that there was no cool fight moment for Geralt to have without it. but let's not even begin with how epically bad the fight for Aretuza was...
@@aakashdas1742 He should’ve just beat him with the staff
When the (usually frail) mage has also specialized in melee combat!😨
Battlemage.
The staff isn't just for casting spells
@@thevampirecielphantomhive2342 Well, it should be, because it seems unfair.
This wasn't a fight, this was a pure destruction of Geralt's butt.
In the books it was even worse. Vilgefortz didn't use magic at all, he humbled geralt using skill alone 😭
@@Heavenly_Father Yes but Vilgefortz made it clear he is using magical staff.
“Your arrogance, Geralt. I will disabuse you of arrogance. And I will do so with the help of this magic staff here.”
Sorry but Vigefortz cant have the skill of Geralt in 1 million years since he never had the training for survival witchers had. So he uses magic to catch up. Cowardly of course but he is just a villain
@@ceckolalovia He is not a coward for using his abilities to its maximum. He would be a fool to use melee combat with him. Witcher is a mutant, thus you can say also a cheater against a human.
Vilgefortz proved he is not a coward by facing 3 of them, not backing up but going directly towards them in the last battle. He literally destroyed them. The only reason he had to die is for good guys to win. It is more than obvious he is that powerful.
Since this is a book, thus fantasy and not reality, what is what is only based on author's choice. If you could ask him, you would have definite answer on this question.
I actually love vilgerfortzs' style. He uses his magic to enhance his already deadly reflexes. His staff weighs nothing, and he has very clearly mastered the weapon and the ability to use it like an automatic parry.
Never thought I would see a non-cliché scene in a modern show. This was Beautiful.
As it is literally following Sapkowski's book book apart from the site.
@@taomahNEGEV And Vilgefortz lines in the books are less cringe than these
@@moonknightish It happens when the series manager consider herself superior to the original material. She mistook the sky for the stars reflecting upon a pond at night.
Man ... In the books the damage is like WAY worse.
Vilgefortz: You mistook the stars reflected in the pond for the sky.
Geralt:...what?
Vilgefortz : You know, that sounded cooler in my head, anyway enjoy that pain. k thx bye.
He is the same Vilgefortz who was beaten bad in season 1 fort fight. He held back his real powers until he knew Ciri is useful. What a weird plot!!
He was faking it
Holding back. They literally both worked for the same person
Funny , no really, in the books it's way worse, Geralt gets absolutely crushed within seconds 💀
Imagine geralt feels the sun and starts flying with his eyes turning red
this scene was like in a books, incredible
No it wasn't. This scene is rather retarded.
"You like my staff?" Eww
Vilgefortz ability to fight with that staff throws any adversary of there rythem.
If you watched carefully all throughout the fight he kept materializing the staff to wield with either arm so it allowed him excellent defence and easy counter attack swinging from the left then materialized to swing from the right.
Makes defending insanely hard going from left to right right to left. Just bad ass fighting abilities.
Just again makes us wander what the writers was smoking in season 1 when he got his ass beaten 🤣🤦♂️
Sir, homie, my brother in Christ, if you listen to what he is saying in this video he literally says he was holding back before
Watching it 1000 times❤😅
Modern Star Wars creators should really be watching this and writing things down.
You know, with Vilgefortz's staff, he basically has no openings Geralt can attack, since he's able to teleport it exactly where he needs to block the attacks.
This is quite possibly my favorite 1v1 fight in fantasy, despite the hero losing.
I love that Stregobor, Artorius and Vilgefortz all had their own unique looking staff. Was Vilgefortz' staff disappearing in the book too?
No it wasnt. He also havent used any magic.
@@ilive4hs Oh, but he did. That is the biggest lie EVER from The Witcher. His staff was completely full of magic, that's why he was able to throw Geralt meters away with just one hit. It wasn't because he has superhuman strenght or something, it was because of tha magic in the staff. Plus, as Geralt tries to hit Vilgefortz, it is said that the staff was moving as if it had its own will. If you say he didn't use spells and stuff like that, yeah, he actually didn't. But no magic? Bull ... The staff was full of it.
@@ldcardoso2806 I was talking about casting. Staff was clearly magical otherwise it wont be able to break witchers sword. 😅
@@ldcardoso2806 He is not)
For whatever reason this reminds me so much of the Anakin vs Ahsoka fight.
Geralt "I will not be your partner. I will not join your fight"
Vilgefortz "Arrogans will be your undoing"
Geralt" And steel (or rather steal) will be yours" Fantastic line Henry!
"Today I hold back no more" Look at Henrys moves!! Vilgefortz is a martial artist AND a wizard! That heavy iron staff weighed nothing in his hands. He could accelerate it and teleport it as he pleased, and even if Geralt GOT IT from Vilgefortz, he was still able to teleport it back to his hand.
In a fair fight Geralt would have got him a bunch of times... I have not seen the last series in TW in wich Henry is playing Geralt, but a very good fight scene though!
I am not sure if you are reffering to the series or books or both, but I agree that Vilgefortz uses magic in both versions which is not pure skill like everyone thinks.
"Fair Fight" can be interpreted in many different ways.
If you mean without manipulating magic during the fight then yeah, Geralt wins.
However, let's not ignore the fact that Geralt was actually enhanced by magic and alchemy, he is not human anymore.
Same example can be applied to Iron Man and Captain America. Tony will literally destroy Steve in every scenario. Then someone would come and say that Cap would kick his ass without the suit, of course he will....
This was the whole point of them having an argument in Avengers 1 that Cap implies that Tony is nothing without the suit while Tony as a response says that everything special about Steve came from the Serum, and they are both right and wrong at the same time.
Same with Geralt and Vilgefortz. Both are knowledgable and skilled to a degree without magic or alchemy involved, but these things became their second nature at this point that there is no point in comparing them without their abilities.
@@andreymavian3400 yet Tony without a suit would destroy Steve without serum the same way how Vilgefortz destroy Geralt without any enhancements. I remember Vilgefortz trained as an Assassin as well.
You will be my warning to the continent.
It is truly remarkable how everyone in medieval fantasy Poland is so diverse like modern day California. Truly faithful to the book.
You know Witcher doesn't take place in "fantasy Poland"?
@@ruster2230 It takes place in a world which is inspired by medieval Eastern Europe.
Does the name ''Vilgefortz" sound very Indian/ Pakistani to you?!
@@doublep1980 you are correct to a certain degree it is inspired by not just eastern european myths and stories but also norse and celtic ones and both vilgefortz and geralt are german sounding names.
@@olmeno It is made by a Polish man who wrote his medieval fantasy story to have it like Tolkien did for Lord of the Rings. It is most definitely Polish medieval inspired fantasy...
@@2nerC9 bro i am Polish and i've read the original books and i guarantee some elements like the wild hunt or the culture of nilfgaard empire are not of eastern european inspiration
I wasn't expecting Vilgefortz to be that badass especially going up against a witcher of Geralt's character.
know this Gentlemen, that the very first dangerous weapon in the world ever invented by humanity..is Staff
The staff is the best weapon.
@@SceptiKalmannsSandbox I remember Brother Bear..Koda seeing the cave painting of man holding a stick to a bear..he scared by them..by the picture of a Man whose holding a stick.
In Chinese lore, it's known as "The grandfather of all weapons." Which makes sense.
@@HLsteppa I like that. The Grandfather of All Weapon...hmm
First time ⌚ I see geralt get injured this bad
One of the very few scenes that are actually good
This vilgefortz guy surprised 😱
This reminds of the fight between reign and supergirl💯
These fights are always good and surprising asf
This is moment when a strong proud protagonist is given a reality check 😊
The moment when he knows that he f*cked up 🤓
And i love it 🔥
No Witcher without Henry
Film producer killed geralt because he didn't let them get his virgin hole out there.
Sadly yes
Nikdy neumis čest je druhý meč není ,aby porazil jen aby jiným ukázal cestu ..❤
Liam Hemsworth will never be as good as Geralt as Cavill was he was perfect for the role
Epic.
3:04 - tear:(
What i do wonder is how Cahir destroyed Vilgefortz with little effort. Surely that had to have been theatre from Vilgefortz part
Against Cahir, Vilgefortz was holding back his true power.
I have seen him lose first time but I lose like this every time.
okok so Geralt finds himself on the beach out of nowhere... did Netflix just referenced the Geralt VS Ofieri mage fight from Hearts of Stone expansion?!
His staff is made of Diameritium
Is that true or are you guessing?
He paralyzed him
All that tom foolery with the staff switching could have been avoided with a dagger and a grapple.
how did he struggle against the villain in season 1 tho?
He didn't 😶😐 that's why he woke up unscarred he was just doing it for his own purpose
He calls back to it in this scene, that the hardest part for him, was holding himself back all this time, not revealing what level of fighter he really is.
geralt vs fliegenfurtz
Svět jé v jiných najdi můj meč druhým se obou strany meč

Guys I only watch season 1 of Witcher is the other seasons worth it
Worth it, yes, but not as good as season 1. 1 is great, 2 is good, 3 is...fine.
Absolutely not. Go read the books, don't waste your time
Just go read books, don't waste your time on Netflix garbage
@@jpjordan90 but season 1 is bad...
@@jquid2337yeah but it's watchable
Jiný přijde druzí odchází .
Fun fact in the books it is Geralt who actually defeated him with help of Yenn.❤
and Regis but that in the final books though, this is their first meet and Geralt get his ass beat by Vilgefortz.
Geralt could win if he had the Cat Potion.
Nah not cat that's for eyes he just needs a dimeritium bomb
Cat only used in darkness
How was this dude able to compete eith Geralt
Mages are powerful and stronger than Witchers lol
i just feel like this actor can't pull off menacing like Vilgefortz needs for a villainous appearance
The fight is overchoreographed and kinda sucks ass. If they didn't want to follow the book's version of Geralt v. Vilgefortz, they should've made this more grounded, instead of a ballet. Feels like both of them don't aim for the vitals, but for the opponent's weapon instead. Also, against a staff, Geralt should've used mainly stabs, as well as go for Vilgefortz's hands.
Proč boj je věčný jen krása život a
nonsense. How can a wizard who grew an ass on the sofa beat a Witcher who swings a sword on a horse every day? illogical
A smart warrior would not engage in a fight with this character who is flawed from the script. He goes and gets xp, that's how he comes
There's no way Geralt should have thrown this fight so hard
It was even worse in the book lmao😂😭
why the fuck did they change vilgefort's ethnicity ? tired of this "inclusive" bullshit that actually just means " let's replace a white character".
Henry does not look mean enough to play Geralt. They needed a dude that looked like the one from the Witcher 3
Anson Mount
@@kingdanversnah, he has pretty boy face too
Nah
Mads mikkelsen
the reason why i don't like this at all is because i'm a tv show only, i have a bit of knowledge about the books, but i didn't read them
what i do know however is that this guy got m*lested by cahir in season 1, and now he's touching a witcher so disrespectfully? naaaaaaaaah
My theory is that he was already working with Nilfgaard and purposely threw the fight because Yen was watching.
I have to say Cahir was also very inconsistently written, one time he gets beat by random redanian caravan guards and the other time he wins a battle vs magically enhanced twins.
@@bryansnl01 my own theory is that the writers finnaly decided to read a bit of the books in season 3 lol
i get your theory, but velgifortz was actually knowcked out in the fight against cahir, like fully unconscious (when he hit his head on the tree)
he had no way of knowing cahir would not kill him since the cahir himself shouldn't have known about the alliance between emyr and velgifortz
and i find it hard to believe the actuall strongest mage in the whole continent would leave it all to chance
@@waddahyana494 yep then it makes no fcking sense he lost in the first place
0:38 watch from here you got the answer. Vilgefortz is cunning and powerful obviously he lost on purpose.
@@waddahyana494 on second note I agree with you. There’s also the fact that he starts bleeding from depleting his chaos. That’s a very far stretch if it was intentional even for vilgefortz. I hope the show doesn’t make up some stupid lore reason that he is weak without the staff
The movie series is such abyssmal crap in comparison with great original polish books series....
Сцена конечно красивая боя, но это бред ..... Всё переврали. Вильгефорц маг высокого уровня, он заколдовал Геральда заклинанием а потом тупо избил его посохом..... Так бы зритель увидел силу магии и на сколько силён маг. Если бы они дрались на мечах, Геральд победил бы на третьей секунде. Ведьмаки всю жизнь тренируются с мечом. И потом Вильгефорц белый и с многочисленными волосами на голове..... 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ Какой пи.....ц. По любому женщина писала сценарий...... столько глупости и нелогичности....🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Political correctness will destroy everything, I watched three episodes at random, it's impossible to describe, total crap.
This fight was bullshit. Plot device alone.
Why though, Gerald got defeated in a similar way in the books.
@@Tayfungurses777 they didn’t have to slow Geralt down in the books. or reduce his durability to suffer hard from blows he appears to have tanked before.
@@DrmikaeruVilgefortz just hits that hard. Broke his femur out his leg in the books and made him vomit before knocking him out. And Vilgefortz did not use magic in the book fight.
@@stew-03 the problem is that in the TV series, vilgefortz got manhandled by cahir in season 1 .........
@@waddahyana494he says in this scene he’s been holding back
What a ruined to shit series...with worst choreo fights ever created.
The first season has on good fight...and then it gets worse and worse...
Pure shit fight compared to the books and video games...
Which idiot writer wrote this part! Geralt trained for dacades and vilgefortz was totally unharmed. Writer can't write.
Vilgefortz had beaten Geralt in the books, this is their attempt at trying to honour that moment.
@@BigBadKayy I know that that's why I am saying how idiot that book writer is I would not mind if vilgefortz had little blood shed.
@@BigBadKayyOP didn't read the books. Just some wannabe fan who only played the games or watched the show. It's happening a lot with media.
@@swamp345 OP?
@@dovahkiinslayer752 Opening Post
if only they found a good actor for Vilgefortz role. I just can't watch a call support guy or an uber driver beating Geralt lol
This is crap, Very low budget cinematoghraphy. Nothing like in the books. Nothing at all. I mean lieterally nothing. Emptiness,. Geralt was giving it all defending Ciri. Its just not there.
