Who Is Smarter, Varys Or Littlefinger?

Let me put it this way. Varys knows what Littlefinger is up to. However Littlefinger doesn't have a clue as to what Varys is up to.

Varys, he plays the game longer than Littlefinger and like greywindsrage state knows what LF is up to

"Littlefinger.....the gods only know what game Littlefinger is playing"- Varys

Lf waaaay smarter. Imagine if he had Varys' resources.

I'd say this disproves that argument.

But Varys built all of his resources himself.

Littlefinger inherited most of his.

Explain Sansa's disappearence from KL right under from under his nose where Varys had no clue what happened or where she left to.

Why didn't he stop Joff's poisoning by the Tyrells (with LF's help) or manipulate it another way more to his advantidge? Of course, he might consider it "good for the realm" that Joff got poisoned but I don't recall any evidence that Varys was in the loop about Joff's poisoning.

Are you sure he didn't know? One can never know when Vary's is telling the truth. Plus he is not concerned with Sansa. Varys knows that LF wants to power for himself but does LF know that Varys' wants to bring down the Lannisters and help Dany claim the throne?

The main reason we cant use the whole "they know what the other one is thinking" is two fold

1. Littlefinger is a liar

2. Varys tells half-truths as well as lies

We simply dont know what they know, much less what they know about each other.
