⚔️TOP 10 GAME OF THRONES SWORDSMEN⚔️ 🔥Based off on the show, not the books🔥 Who do you think is the best swordsman? Thank you for watching!💙 #shorts #gameofthrones #swordsmen #gotswordsmen
Honorable Mentions: Ned Stark: I didn't forget about him. According to GRRM was a good swordsman, but nothing more. In the show we might think he was even better because we love the character, but he's not a top 10 swordsman. Arya Stark: I decided not to include her in the top because she has more of an assassin role than a swordsman, but if I had included her, she would be probably equal to Brienne of Tarth.
Ned never fought in tourneys because the honest answer is that we're not supposed to know how good he is. He keeps up with Jaime well enough when he's 15 years out from his last swordfight.
Right. I would love to see Robert in action too. He was apparently a beast in battle. I think in one of the books it says he takes out multiple people in one swing. Something like that
@@Gonic1 right lol. I bet some war scenes with him would be amazing. I think Ned Stark said "His hammer was so heavy I couldn't even lift it." And Robert was just swinging that thing around like nobody's business lol
@@ballsballsballs3617 doesnt make sense by game of thrones lore. Kind of a cool name though. Lucifer Morningstar is the Christians fallen angel (devil). So sword of the morningstar would be like Lucifers own kingsgaurd knight :D
A defeat is a defeat. You can argue if he didn't had a second spear he would habe lost the fight fair. But I think he is not on the list because he is not a SWORDman but a SPEARman. 😂
@@TheSoldier1984 Bro he literal got beaten lmao Oberyn dead cuz of his anger and distracted by his wife. Otherwise even after he got mountain down he didn't let his guard down.
No face guy was the most lethal if we talk about pure dominance in a fight but he wasn't a particular fighter but a ghost assassin. For me he was the most lethal guy in got and his student Arya start who was just a kid literally fooled and killed white walker king. He is criminally underrated.
Jon is way too slept on, not many out there that can go toe to toe with White Walkers and beat them. That alone should put him in the top 5. By the time he's a full grown matured adult he'll be insanely good.

@@leodaai3543 we never really get to see him truly fight though so his skills in battle are left to the imagination. Assassins don't usually fare well in actual battles or even fights because they rely on stealth and surprise. I do imagine he was a pretty good fighter though, or at least teacher as he taught Arya and that other chick very well relatively quickly. Could he stand up to a full blown White Walker though? Not sure on that one, or maybe even some of the higher tier fighters like Gregor and Sandor, Tormund, Brienne, Oberyn and etc. Only chance is if he can catch them off guard , if not he's probably getting cleaved lol
Everybody forgot about the man, the myth and the legend khal drogo. He's the most respected khal among the strongest warriors/army (dothraki) in the series.
@@stew-03he is actually. He's said to be a great fighter with all weapons and used swords alot. He only chose spear to fight the mountain so that he could have better reach to avoid being split in half if he got too close lol
Jamie was a squire for both Dayne and Barristan and when asked about being wowed or star struck by a great knight's skills, he does not say Dayne. He says Barristan. George RR martin also says the only thing that makes Dayne best Barristan was his sword.
No face guy was the most lethal if we talk about pure dominance in a fight but he wasn't a particular fighter but a ghost assassin. For me he was the most lethal guy in got and his student Arya start who was just a kid literally fooled and killed white walker king. He is criminally underrated.
Personal Ranking: #1: Ser Arthur Dayne no doubt #2: Ser Jaime Lannister, with both hands there was no person alive that would beat that man #3: Ser Brienne of Tarth: The only one who got close to it even though one could argue that jaime was in terrible condition (she also played with loras and defeated the hound) #4: Ser Barristan Selmy (in his prime) he was very good but he said himself (in the books) that jaime was better by far #5: Sandor Clegane/Ser Gregor Clegane (bevor ser Gregor became a monster at least, but I won‘t count that as a human being) #6: Jon Snow, the best Swordsman in the North after being with the wildlings and after the battle of the bastards #7: Khal Drogo, seriously, did y‘all forget about that monster? (He was portrayed better in the books though) #8: Ser Bronn, smart enough to win against stronger enemies by outplaying them #9 Loras Tyrell, no one had a finer technique (again, also regarding to the books) #10 Arya Stark, everyone would always underestimate her, but still she somehow killed the night king and made Brienne become angry
the Brienne bias is so bad in this post, Barristan in his prime fought his way out of two castles by himself, defeating countless knights and soldiers just to get put behind Brienne and Jaime, Drogo should definitely be up there even further than Brienne and Jon

Better you would have put the Black Fish or Garlan Tyrell or Loras Tyrell or Yohn Royce or Oberyn Martell who also fought with the sword, only he preferred the spear, or Great Jon Umber or Victarion Greyjoy instead of Qhorin
Selmy Berristan in his prime, was a match for Dayne. Never mind, how the hell did I not see he was number two on the list. I do think there’s some reference in the book that Jamie considered Barristan better than Dayne. I don’t think Jamie deserves to be ranked that high. In the show, Ned held up against him pretty well, and like you said Ned is actually not as good a swordsman as his reputation from “beating” Dayne.
Agree with the list, but i would put Ned over Jorah as he has killed many skillful knights and hound over mountain any day. Hound was far more skillful.

Someone give me your full run down Who’s your small council What faith will you push Who you’d marry your heir to(1 son) Who you’d marry your daughter to for alliance power(1daughter) Who you’d marry to be your queen who is your hand Who’s the 7 in your kingsguard
We cant really scale jon becasue he got better during the show he could even beat brienne or the hound at the end of the show, the worst is season 8 is not even his prime jon talent as a swordsman is really underrated
The mountain should not be on this list. He's just freakishly big and strong, which gives him an unfair advantage. He can handle a greatsword with one hand and wear extremely heavy plate armour. It's not his swordcraft that makes him the feared opponent he is.
Exactly! He is not a good swordsman he is feared for his strength and size but guys like Jaimie, see barristan, dayne, oberyn, and many more would whipe him with ease. People like to forget that oberyn technically beat him while toying and taunting him
The Hound is a better swordsman than The Mountain, his lesser known because he wasent as brutal and cruel like his brother. They fought both times in the show and both time the Hound won. And i would rank Oberyn higher than the Mountain aswell, considering if this was straight up war on the battlefield and hes fighting to kill, instead of getting a confession, The Mountain is definitely dead. I would say 1. Arthur Dayne , 2. Barristan Selmy, 3. Jaime Lannister , Oberyn Martell, 4. Prime Robert Barratheon, 5. The Hound, 6. The Mountain , 8. Karl Drogo, 9. Robb Stark , 10. Jorah Mormont, 11. Jon Snow , 12. Bronn, 13. Brianne
Very good list, if I had to do the video again maybe I would change Ser Gregor to a lower position, but I still consider him one of the most dangerous and strongest characters in Got
Exactly 💯, No face guy was the most lethal if we talk about pure dominance in a fight but he wasn't a particular fighter but a ghost assassin. For me he was the most lethal guy in got and his student Arya start who was just a kid literally fooled and killed white walker king. He is criminally underrated.
Well, I would have considered Ned Stark - he was a tough opponent to Jayme Lannister and could have won, if not stabbed from behind. And Brienne could get a higher spot - she won in the fights with Jayme and Sandor

Ned stark in GOT was shown Old but he was greatest swords men in the north in his time
replace the mountain with khal drogo.
@@gouridebraj3245 that’s just not true
Ned never fought in tourneys because the honest answer is that we're not supposed to know how good he is. He keeps up with Jaime well enough when he's 15 years out from his last swordfight.
Syrio Forel is not on here?
when u realize that top-3 were the kingsgaurd to the mad king
bro had a stacked starting line up
If only he wasn't mad...
all the mad king's kingsguard is badass
Ser Arthur Dayne wasn't a kingsguard to the Mad King
@@Niggasonic_Teenage_Warhead Yes he was
we need a Robert's rebellion prequel so we can see some Arthur Dayne action
Right. I would love to see Robert in action too. He was apparently a beast in battle. I think in one of the books it says he takes out multiple people in one swing. Something like that
@@devonhoward8620yeah he wielded a warhammer lmao, could you imagine getting all your bones crushed by a 300 kg warhammer? 💀
@@Gonic1 right lol. I bet some war scenes with him would be amazing. I think Ned Stark said "His hammer was so heavy I couldn't even lift it." And Robert was just swinging that thing around like nobody's business lol
@@devonhoward8620 I don’t remember if it was specified in the show but in the books Ned couldn’t lift it
@@Gonic1 ya that's what I'm talking about
“He’s better than my father..”
“Far better” 👀
Dayne is clear of everyone on this list only Selmy would stand a chance in a 1vs1 against him Dayne would wipe the others out in seconds
Ser ARTHUR Dayne ⚔️ history of westeros 🔥 sword of the morningstar 🌟 one of the best knight forever 💯
Sword of the morning, but yea.
Yeah sword of the morning star makes no sense 😂
THE best knight
we lost him to early maybe we see him in a spin-off from the Roberts Rebellion
@@ballsballsballs3617 doesnt make sense by game of thrones lore. Kind of a cool name though. Lucifer Morningstar is the Christians fallen angel (devil). So sword of the morningstar would be like Lucifers own kingsgaurd knight :D
*What about the Butcher’s Boy?*
“He didn’t make the *cut* “ - Hound
😭
He ran... not very fast - The hound
Arthur was back stabbed. The greatest swordsman😢😢
Oberyn not being here is criminal.He defeated the Mountain in single combat but because of his arrogance for him to confess her was killed.
A defeat is a defeat. You can argue if he didn't had a second spear he would habe lost the fight fair.
But I think he is not on the list because he is not a SWORDman but a SPEARman. 😂
@@zappbrannigan2394 Same for Robert Baratheon he's a Hammerman
Oberyn not a swordsman. He favored the spear.
It says swordsman not warrior. Oberyn used a spear
Spears mate
Brian defeated the hound b/c he was injured. And the mountain was defeated by the viper.
He wasn't, at the end it was fair fight
Oberyn gets his eyes gouged and head crushed…while Gregor got poisoned by the venomous spear.
It’s a DRAW
@@TheSoldier1984 Bro he literal got beaten lmao Oberyn dead cuz of his anger and distracted by his wife. Otherwise even after he got mountain down he didn't let his guard down.
@@anarkrimli1415 yeah I know red viper’s quest for vengeance failed…he got himself killed
But hey he killed Gregor with a poison coated spear 😭😂
Glad you read the short title well.. It says "SWORDMEN" not "SPEARMEN" 😅
If im correct… Not only is Ser Arthur Dayne the greatest in Got but the entirety of a song of fire and ice
Yes
Nope.
@@aleftwinggamer3950 he is lol
Questionable... there are Aemon the Dragonknight, Cregan Stark, and Daemon Blackfyre that can possibly take that title from Arthur Dayne
@@1-2-bap78That wasn't a personal opinion. It's actually been stated that way.
The top tree are the most dangerous swordsmen in the 7 kingdoms, add ser Gerold hightower " white bull".

@@leodaai3543can u stop writing that under every comment? The video is about swordsmen not weird assassin monks
Honourable mention "No One"
I KNEW IT a girl has no name
@@missing8068 Arya out fenced Brianne when they were just sparring. IMO in a real fight Brianne would kill Arya.
@@treyhelms5282Arya probably sucks with a real longsword
@@stew-03 Yeah
i think jon snow deserve more
Jon is way too slept on, not many out there that can go toe to toe with White Walkers and beat them. That alone should put him in the top 5. By the time he's a full grown matured adult he'll be insanely good.

Everybody forgot about the man, the myth and the legend khal drogo. He's the most respected khal among the strongest warriors/army (dothraki) in the series.
Khal drogo was very strong, but i have only included traditional swordsmen in this video, they used another type of sword
I am waiting for Robert's Rebellion show so that I can watch Arthur Dayne 🔥
Oberyn has to be on this list. He was so talented.
He finished the Mountain.
He is very good but he is not a swordsman
@@stew-03he is actually. He's said to be a great fighter with all weapons and used swords alot. He only chose spear to fight the mountain so that he could have better reach to avoid being split in half if he got too close lol

Senti falta de sir Barristan aí tbm. Ele velho é melhor que vários cavaleiros jovens juntos.
Barristan said himself in the books Arthur was better than him
Oberyn is one of the best, he only died because he wanted an answer and he needed the Mountain alive.
He mainly uses spears.
@@mrlabeouf9002 Good point, still, he is one of the best fighter and scholar in Westeros and Western Essos
He still basically killed the mountain as well, but qyburn did his sussy shit

Skill issue.
Viper was also skilled swordsman...Rhaegar was also one of the best swordsman
oberyn doesn’t use a sword
Robb and Theon(prime) are also good fighters like Jon Snow they were trainted by Ser Rodrik
Robb is on a whole other level compared to theon what lol
Theon is more on archery rather than sword, can say he's one of the best Archer in westeros. Well at least before Ramsay broke him
They literally say that rob stark is a better swordsman than Jon
Pretty accurate. If you had just included obreyn martell . But well done
he was included tho
Last one is suuuuuper underrated, what a badass
Ser Arthur Dayne 🐐💯
Personal Ranking:
#1: Ser Arthur Dayne no doubt
#2: Ser Jaime Lannister, with both hands there was no person alive that would beat that man
#3: Ser Brienne of Tarth: The only one who got close to it even though one could argue that jaime was in terrible condition (she also played with loras and defeated the hound)
#4: Ser Barristan Selmy (in his prime) he was very good but he said himself (in the books) that jaime was better by far
#5: Sandor Clegane/Ser Gregor Clegane (bevor ser Gregor became a monster at least, but I won‘t count that as a human being)
#6: Jon Snow, the best Swordsman in the North after being with the wildlings and after the battle of the bastards
#7: Khal Drogo, seriously, did y‘all forget about that monster? (He was portrayed better in the books though)
#8: Ser Bronn, smart enough to win against stronger enemies by outplaying them
#9 Loras Tyrell, no one had a finer technique (again, also regarding to the books)
#10 Arya Stark, everyone would always underestimate her, but still she somehow killed the night king and made Brienne become angry
Barristan Selmy in his old age would absolutely destroy Brienne
@@Killerincrocs23Like carving a cake!
the Brienne bias is so bad in this post, Barristan in his prime fought his way out of two castles by himself, defeating countless knights and soldiers just to get put behind Brienne and Jaime, Drogo should definitely be up there even further than Brienne and Jon
Ser Jaime vs Jon Kings North, well never see it
Pretty accurate I think. Definitely got the best listed though!!!
100% agreed with this list

I wish we got more of ser arthur dayne and house dayne the show never even spoke of the house dayne not even about asshara or darkstar
I’m sure we’ll get a spin off involving them
There are thousands of such reels in the Internet but the top 3 remains the same every fu**** time .. 🔥
Better you would have put the Black Fish or Garlan Tyrell or Loras Tyrell or Yohn Royce or Oberyn Martell who also fought with the sword, only he preferred the spear, or Great Jon Umber or Victarion Greyjoy instead of Qhorin
Game of thrones. Meaning the series not the books. Smartass

I don’t think Jamie deserves to be ranked that high. In the show, Ned held up against him pretty well, and like you said Ned is actually not as good a swordsman as his reputation from “beating” Dayne.
Dayne only beats Selmy because he wields the sword “Dawn”. Otherwise yeah they are equals
@@stew-03 Maybe. The ambiguity makes for good story telling.
I know this only for swordsman but as fighters oberyn and khal drogo were crazy good.
Love the half hand making the list
This list is surprisingly accurate
Agree with the list, but i would put Ned over Jorah as he has killed many skillful knights and hound over mountain any day. Hound was far more skillful.
The first sword of Bravos?!?
A great swordsman, but I decided not to include him because we never saw his true potential... but he would be in the top 10 for sure :D

This is the perfect list
Ranking Jon Snow as #8 must be unrealistic thing ever
Someone give me your full run down
Who’s your small council
What faith will you push
Who you’d marry your heir to(1 son)
Who you’d marry your daughter to for alliance power(1daughter)

We cant really scale jon becasue he got better during the show he could even beat brienne or the hound at the end of the show, the worst is season 8 is not even his prime jon talent as a swordsman is really underrated
Jorah and Bronn can be swapped.... I personally feel Jorah is a great swordsman
Thank you for the Half Hand respect. Bro is better than Jaime! Jaime can’t use his left hand
With his right hand, Jaime was the best with Barristan and Arthur Dayne
The mountain should not be on this list. He's just freakishly big and strong, which gives him an unfair advantage. He can handle a greatsword with one hand and wear extremely heavy plate armour. It's not his swordcraft that makes him the feared opponent he is.

@@ballsballsballs3617 exactly the only reason oberyn lost was due to own arrogance he literally had the fight won
Agree
Only swordmen because for the Warriors this is not the same classment
Loved the added detail of him dual wielding swords. It was awesome and so well choreographed
Pretty accurate but Loras Tyrell and young Robert should have been in it
Arthur dran impress me in a short time
When I saw first ones seen in got I was shocked 😳
Is the night of flowers a joke to you?
Jamie has no hand💀
Arya stark watching this reel and adding this channel owner on her list! 😬
Arya is not swordman, she was assasin
Bahahhaha
Ned in the books wasn't a skilled swordsman but a good commander , but in the show they almost made him equal to Jaime
I don't know if ser Gregor is good or if he is just strong.
dayne selmy jaime all day baby
The Hound is a better swordsman than The Mountain, his lesser known because he wasent as brutal and cruel like his brother. They fought both times in the show and both time the Hound won.

Very good list, if I had to do the video again maybe I would change Ser Gregor to a lower position, but I still consider him one of the most dangerous and strongest characters in Got
Your the best for putting Prime Robert up there on the list. Man was called the “Demon of the Trident”.
The great Jon Umber is a major snub
I love it !!! ❤
ooh Bronn and Jorah would be a interesting duel
jhon snow is 8😢
he was the one who defeated a lot of white walkers and theire masters
Arya 👀
I saw multiple videos discussing this topic.... number 1 is always same
Where da hell prince oberin at 🤔🤔🤔
Bronn deserved a better rank
Prime Robert said Hi.
Aeris Targaryen had the strongest King's guard in the entire history of Westeros
Literally everyone of them is a one man army
You should have added Thoros of Myr maybe even Syrio Forrel.
syrio forrel was amazing, if he had an actual sword there we could have seen much more
Sword of the morning
What about Ned Stark or Oberyn Martell
bro , jhon snow and arya stark is the only two swordsmen who defeated the masters of white walkers
Well, Prime Jon Snow was considered one of the greatest swordsmen in the 7 kingdoms..
And yet Dayne fell to Ned and his retinue and Sir Selmy is still alive and well as far as we know from the books.
Dayne was back stapped..... Dumb person ... Dayne killed 6 person before dying and defeated Ned.. but he was back stabbed
Don't confuse swordsman with fighter or killer. Not every fight is with just swords or in a clean honorable manner.
Exactly 💯, No face guy was the most lethal if we talk about pure dominance in a fight but he wasn't a particular fighter but a ghost assassin. For me he was the most lethal guy in got and his student Arya start who was just a kid literally fooled and killed white walker king. He is criminally underrated.
Fantastic show
Solid list
It would be interesting to see a fight between Selmy and Dwayne... I dont know why but I think that Ser Barristan would win 😅
Actually the creator George rr Martin said that if they were to fight that dayne would win
Make a list of warriors
Probably my next video :D
Prime Robert Beratheon was pretty good...
He used a hamner
@@Xero-rr2ola big fookin hammer
Oberyn martell?
Oberyn is one of the best fighters, but he is not a swordsman, that's why he is not in this top
No where did anyone ever say the mountain was good, he’s just big
he was very skilled fighter too
@@stjepankaraman8367and hes pretty quick for his size
Best is Arya stark❤❤
Briann destroyed the hound she deserves to be putted in his place on that list + arya is not there !?
Syrio Forell was a politician? 😂 should have been here
Swap the hound and mountain.. and it's good..
Well, I would have considered Ned Stark - he was a tough opponent to Jayme Lannister and could have won, if not stabbed from behind. And Brienne could get a higher spot - she won in the fights with Jayme and Sandor
I doubt Jaime was trying considered Ned and 4 others got soloed by Arthur
Agree 100000%
I like bronn's fights.❤️🔥
Arya?
Hahahahahaha
John snow at 8 is wild
No Ned stark???
You forgot Loras Tyrell
I would say Arya had bigger balls than each of these
i wouldn’t
Those balls are called THE PLOT
Best list ever. I am sad I can not like it more than once
Above the Rest
Jorah mormant & Ser Born 🔥
agreed
Jon>>> Sandor
Jon Snow should be ranked higher. He survived so many battles.
Oberyn Martell Also Strong
Top 10 Swordsmen - starting with the guy with the spear... :D
To show that in GOT not all are swordsmen :D
