Lurtz vs. Azog

Only after the Hobbit movies, if anything.

Greenleaf didn't do much hth fighting in the LotR trilogy. Feats from Hobbits are good, esp. with Orcrist, but they still can't hold a candle to those of Aragorn.

Aragorn's massacred entire groups of goblins, orcs or even uruks. Managed to fend off the Nazguls in FotR, too. Including the Witchking.

Defeating the nazgul shits on anything Legolas did in melee.

And that was without Anduril, whereas Legolas' best melee feats have him wielding Orcrist.

First off, Aragorn has very very few h2h feats. Most of his feats were accomplished with a sword, which makes it melee. Legolas went h2h with Bolg. What h2h fights has Aragorn ever done that are memorable?

Legolas defeated scores of enemies as well in melee, he was in the middle of the battles just as much as Aragorn. Difference was that he never, not once, got hit. Aragorn has been injured and was near death.

Legolas took down the Mamukil and easily danced around a cave Troll. Agility feats like that play a big part in h2h.

Aragorn fended off the Nazgul and the Witchking but he didn't exactly defeat them (IIRC). Wasn't it Gandalf who eventually killed the Witchking?

Sounds like you need to rematch the movies TBH.

Eowyn killed the Witch King of Angmar. It was foretold that "no man" would ever best him in combat. And Eowyn being a woman technically qualified so she stabbed him in the face and he died.

Azog clearly wins.

Or you could just be a decent person and point out my mistakes.

Thanks for that. I stand corrected.
