Syrio is criminally underrated in this thread.

He actually did cut thru 5 kingsguard...with a wooden sword

Syrio did not wait for them to reach him, but spun to his left. Arya had never seen a man move as fast. He checked one sword with his stick and whirled away from a second. Off balance, the second man lurched into the first. Syrio put a boot to his back and the red cloaks went down together. The third guard came leaping over them, slashing at the water dancer’s head. Syrio ducked under his blade and thrust upward. The guardsman fell screaming as blood welled from the wet red hole where his left eye had been.

The fallen men were getting up. Syrio kicked one in the face and snatched the steel cap off the other’s head. The dagger man stabbed at him. Syrio caught the thrust in the helmet and shattered the man’s kneecap with his stick. The last red cloak shouted a curse and charged, hacking down with both hands on his sword. Syrio rolled right, and the butcher’s cut caught the helmetless man between neck and shoulder as he struggled to his knees. The longsword crunched through mail and leather and flesh. The man on his knees shrieked. Before his killer could wrench free his blade, Syrio jabbed him in the apple of his throat. The guardsman gave a choked cry and staggered back, clutching at his neck, his face blackening.

Five men were down, dead, or dying by the time Arya reached the back door that opened on the kitchen




Also if Trant wasnt wearing Plate and Syrio didnt have a wooden fricking sword (shoulda picked up one of the fallen guards swords..) he woulda fricked his world up too...

quote:

The first sword of Braavos does not run,” he sang as Ser Meryn slashed at him. Syrio danced away from his cut, his stick a blur. In a heartbeat, he had bounced blows off the knight’s temple, elbow, and throat, the wood ringing against the metal of helm, gauntlet, and gorget.

That might be impressive if it wasn't against Meryn fricking Trant.

Why do some of y'all think the Stark men are weak fighters?

Not being in the top 10 doesn't mean weak

it was never confirmed in the books either that he liked men just a rumor

Leave it to Hollywood to amplify the gay tenfold.

Re: the analysis, I thought we were basing it only on the show? If so, Barristan shouldn't be that high. Yes, I know he's considered elite but they haven't shown much of it. However, if the analysis does sort of meld the show and books, then Robert Baratheon must be top 5 at least. On the show he was a drunk fatass but the books certainly detailed his exploits as a younger man.

I found it odd that the giant statue outside of Braavos had a broken sword just like Syrio's in his fight with Meryn Trant

Kickass typo, I'm leaving it. That makes it sound like he's the knight of morning wood
