Sword boy: Arthur Dayne v everybody




Arthur Dayne is regularly spoken off as the best fighter anybody has ever seen in any of the Seven Kingdoms, and Bran's time-trip back to the fight at the Tower of Joy shows that he deserved all that praise, and more.

It might be a bit too obviously choreographed, but his use of two big fucking swords is the equvalent of bringing a tank to a gunfight, and it takes a bit of dodgy backstabbing to bring him down. Nobody was ever going to beat him in a fair fight, especially when he has twice the usual amount of blades coming at you.
