Saci Targaryen Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I know this is a bit like comparing apples with oranges, but I could speculate the following:Sandor CleganeGregor cleganeJaime LannisterOberyn MartellBronnBrienneLoras TyrellAssuming Robert, Ned, Barrister etc... were too old by the start of the 1st book...

Mulled Wino Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Do they have to be swordsmen? Why not fighters.Oberyn diesnt fight with a sword Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My big fat red wedding Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Loras is a good jouster to be sure, but I can't recall an instance where he proved himself to be a good swordsman too.I think some other character said as much, Cersei perhaps?

We've never actually seen Garlan fight though. Oberyn doesn't use a sword either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summer Stark Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Jaime Lannister was supposed to be the best before losing his hand, but Barristan Selmy has still proved himself a powerful opponent, even with his age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saci Targaryen Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 Sure, we can talk about warriors rather than swordsman. Didn't Loras kick some serious ass during the assault on Dragonstone??Also, there is a passage on SoS where Jaime reckons that the Clegane twins were better than him, and so was Robert Baratheon when he was younger and less drunk.In a FfC Jaime ponders that Sandor is just as strong as Gregor, though much quicker. As for Oberyn, he chose to duel against Gregor with a long spear because that was the only way to counter the Mountain's reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickon the Reclaimer Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Garlan would probably win in a one on one with all but 2handed jaime (barristan is too old), but would be close between the two.Does Jaime know how good Garlan is?If not Garlan could suprise him.
