[Trey Greyjoy]

Had to go with Jaime.

 

[Culhwch]

Jaime, hand down. I meant hands, hands....

 

[Winters_Sorrow]

Even one handed I think he'd beat this guy

 

[gigi]

We have't even seen him fight. Although I still think Jamie would win. I think it's Mance's charisma that has got him so far.

 

[Aegon the Unworthy]

Mance is no slouch Im sure, but Jaime at one point was regarded as the finest swordsman in Westeros.

 

[red_temple]

Definitely Jaime.

 

[genisis2]

looks like everyone is in agreement on this one.

Voting ends Tuesday

Seems voting may have ended Friday

 

[Wiggum]

Two people from Wisconsin.

It's starting to smell like cows around here.

Yeah, this one was a landslide.

Go vote for Bronn if you haven't yet.

 

[Weasel Soup]

Well that or hops

And sorry to dissapoint, but I am in the Strong Belwas camp, Bronn seems to use his sword only when there is a direct benefit to him and it seems to be calculated to increase his personal position. (Or to say..I see him more as a player (with no chance albeit) than a pure fighter).

Belwas sole purpose is to kill, it is all he knows, but in fairness, it is a pity these two got matched up in the first round. I see alot of names on the list that would fall before these two.

They both would have made my "elite eight" otherwise. But I'll admit after months of reading posts here I had to sign up to participate in the ASOIAF tournament.

As the tourney advances, Im sure I will be increasingly hooked.

 

[Koopa]

Still no pitty vote

 

[Detritus]

I vote for Mance. You have to remember he is the King Beyond the Wall and that's got to mean he can fight. The wildlings aren't exactly pushovers, and a man who can unite them all has to be someone who's fighting ability is more than a little respeted by them.

Yay for Mance

 

[Wiggum]

Detritus,

While you may be new (yet swarthy) I think you missed an important point when it comes to Mance.

He was a politician, not a warrior.

And all cred given to Mance for his skills politico, if he was a fighter.....we would have never of heard of the best warriors of the Wildings.

They would have been dead, not living in his tent.

 

[gigi]

Yeah, Mance shouldn't even been on this list. Garlan should though...

 

[Koopa]

Garlan is not on it? Pls tell me that Loras isnt either then

 

[TK-421]

Garlan is not on it? Pls tell me that Loras isnt either then

Yes, Loras is on the list (sighhh)...but he's matched up against Victarion who will make rose stew out him.

 

[timekiller]

rose stew i dont believe i've tasted that before, hopefully i can steal some off victarion when he's done
