If we are going by the books then Stannis. Unfortunately the show writers openly admitted that they don’t like the character and that is why they had him end up the way he did in the show. I would have to go with Ser Davos. He was one of the few characters who was a genuinely good person and unlike others he didn’t have some drastic change in personality that came out of nowhere. He was a loyal guy to Stannis up until the end and he was loyal to Jon. Even before Jon was resurrected he guarded his body with Jon’s loyal friends and was prepared to fight to the death. He was kind to Shireen, rescued Gendry knowing that he could be killed for it. While grey characters can be fun, it’s nice to see a man portrayed as just a good person overall and yet he is still a fun character.

Stannis was completely neutered in the show.

He is a badass in the books.

Exactly. Davos had honor, but he wasn't blinded by it like Ned.
