I wonder where Grey Worm would fall on this list. The Unsullied are apparently badasses, but is that in regard to their individual prowess or their skill as an army? I lean towards the latter, but I wouldn't be shocked to see Grey Worm pull out some Viper-esque skills with a spear.

Selmy might be the biggest badass of all. He started competing in knight tournaments at age 10.

If no Jamie because of his hand then the answer is Barristan Selmy. Hands down the most badass knight in all the lands on the show.

Barristan and Jamie are the two bestswords men in the history of Westeros

But if you Include the books and discount Jamie because of his hand and Barristan because of his age then the answer is much much different

I think Shagga, son of Dolf, and Timett, son of Timett, should be mentioned.

They give precisely zero fricks. Hell, Timett burned out his own eye to prove himself to his clan.

You sure as frick wouldn't want to see the Burning Men on the opposing battlefield, believe that

I'm pretty sure Jorah Mormont was never in possession of the sword. Jorah would've sold it to pay for his wife's lavish expenses.


he left it with his aunt Maege who sent it Castle Black for Jeor, she looks like this in the show

Woops. I guess the flaming sword confused me. I know thoros used one in the melee during the tournament of the hand for ned stark. Thought it was him who fought the Hound in the trial by combat, thanks

Are you saying thoros is THE lord of light? Think he was just a red priest or something

No he's not The Lord of the light.

He uses The Lord of the light to revive Beric
