CHAMPION | GAME OF THRONES TOURNEY | SER BARRISTAN SELMY

Post by Kaius »

itt: we will determine the greatest fighter in the fictional world of planetos with some good ol' fashioned rm democracy.

i will post the match up, we will cast our votes, and i will then tally them up to determine the winner. we will repeat this process until a single warrior is left standing.

show watching or book reading is not necessarily required to participate, though it makes you a more informed voter as some of the characters are more prominent in one medium than the other. regardless, i welcome all to join in the festivities and vote however you would like.

we have a 32-person bracket with completely randomized seeding. i will keep things moving quickly, with a day or 2 for each match up.

good luck to our competitors!

Strong Belwas
Image

Belwas, more commonly known as Strong Belwas, is a tanned eunuch colossus. His nickname comes from the arenas of Meereen where he used to fight. He claims he never lost a fight and he allows his opponents to cut him once before they die.

"I let each man cut me once, before I kill him. Count the cuts and you will know how many Strong Belwas has slain."











VS










Brienne of Tarth
Image
Image

Brienne is well over 6 feet tall, muscular, flat-chested and ungainly, with straw-colored hair and broad, coarse features that are covered in freckles. Her teeth are prominent and crooked, and after her capture by the Brave Companions, two of them are knocked out. Her mouth is wide, her lips are swollen, and her nose has been broken more than once. Despite her overall ugliness, Jaime Lannister notices that her large blue eyes are surprisingly pretty and shine with confidence in battle

"Loras: Draw your sword, woman!
Jaime: Best hope she doesn't. Or it's like to be your corpse we carry out. The wench is as strong as Gregor Clegane, though not so pretty."

Brienne of Tarth would spill his guts after knocking out his teeth. The arakh is no good against an armored knight.

Strong Belwas as he is supposed to be lightning fast and has the experience of having fought a variety of opponents in the pits.

I am too behind on the show and haven't read the books in a few years, so I'm not voting on a lot of these, but I plan to follow with interest.

Is Belwas still alive?
