Khal Drogo vs Edmure Tully in full plate armor


the storm king returns

Recommended Posts

drogo ripped out a man's tongue though his throat barehanded. if it came down to a grappling contest there no doubt drogo would be the one to walk out alive.

That doesn't require superhuman strength. If I recall correctly, he didn't punch through his throat bare-handed, he cut his throat and then reached through the opening created. Flesh is not that hard to tear, especially if it's largely soft tissue and you are pulling it in a direction it was never meant to be pulled.

If Drogo is pinning his arms how is Drogo gonna grab a knife?

He's going to do some super amazing ninja move, like bash in Edmure's visor with his forehead, or tear off his helmet with his teeth and then bite his nose off and let him drown in his own blood! raarrrr Khal Drogo is such a manly man raar he can break Edmures neck with one well timed squat thrust raarrrrrr

Or he does the immediately obvious thing and uses his knees to press Edmures' arms to the ground with the weight of his entire body, like boys of all ages do when they fight. That way he can use his hands freely and Edmure can't.

That's when Edmure starts kicking him in the balls.

Cute. But there is actually not much you can do to prevent a much stronger person to do that kind of deadlock if they can rub two brain cells together. Police and military would not use such and similar maneuvers if they weren't reliable and safe.

And again... I'm wondering about the Drogo that fights Edmure... Is this the fearsome 'never-lost-a-battle' warrior pre or post lethal scratch to his chest? Cuz you know... after Khal had that booboo he was less an effective fighter and more a fleshy flytrap.

So not only does Drogo pin Edmure, but he moves his body around to knee him. So, when exactly does edmure wake up from the knock out drugs he is on? Because he needs to be on some if Drogo can do all this stuff without him stabbing him once.

You do know that wound was poisoned by Mirri Maz Duur right?

I seem to recall him killing one other Dothraki dude in the books but it has been a while...

He personally slayed some other khal and maybe his sons in some offscreen battle I think. We never see him in combant, which is why Jason Momoa asked the show writers to give him a combat scene.

Right.... Of course this is all stuff that the Dothraki said about themselves. If you took a step back you would realize that the Dothraki are little more than a joke to Planatos. Go read the Drogo Heavyweight thread.... It is gone over in mind numbing detail there how the only person who praised the Dothraki, Jorah... did so because he had a vested interest in making his information seem useful. In fact... when talked about abstractly the Dothraki are known for hit-and-run tactics and attacking lamb men. The Dothraki were little fish swimming around in a rain puddle.

Sorry.... we all know Drogo was so Dreammmmmmy.... But where do people get the idea that he was some unstoppable warrior? It certainly ain't in the text.
