Aragorn vs The Hound and The Mountain

Yeah, he was descended from the old race who were more powerful than common humans and he didn't die until he was 210.

And movie Aragorn spends two films "nerfed" basically, fighting with just his Strider sword and Celeborn's dagger.

He gets Anduril only in RotK.

Thats not Mountain, thats Ser Robert Strong who survived the blade through the skull and all that. He was Mountains zombie brought back to life by alchemy and dark magic so he is fundamentally different from Gregor Clegane and the feats don't carry over.

My bad and thank you King. I looked into some ASOIAF synopses and lore (never read the books, just watched the show), and saw Ser Robert Strong as Zombimountain's name.

In that case, this is a whopper of stomp in favor of Strider. He's a super skilled swordsman sampling superhuman stats (alliteration much? 🙂)beyond both the Clegane bros. Aragorn could do it against Zombie Mountain as Rob says, but normie Mountain? Game over.

He fought them in melee with his standard Strider sword, too, actually.

And those "some" ringwraiths included the Witchking of Angmar.

Sharku, the warg rider captain.

King of the Dead.

He's just lowballing Aragorn.

Indeed. Picture someone as fast and more skilled than Oberyn, and stronger than Gregor but he doesn't f*ck around.

Fighting off five Nazguls (including the Witch-king)... without Anduril... is perhaps Aragorn's best feat.

Witch King - No man can kill me.
Aragorn - I'll just beat you stupid until you leave.

Man, if only they could've done TV show Mountain in that manner and made him a more interesting villain. Instead, it was stand around and look intimidating, perform a Sub-Zero spine rip fatality on a Sparrow mook, then fight to the death with Sandor, and that's it.

Well, he is Surtur. Nothing more can be expected from him.

He only cares about shitposting in GDF and wanking his imaginary version of composite Karate Kid.

This is zombie mountain since that’s his strongest incarnation.

But yeah Aragorn wins. I just wanted to see what other people had to say about it. Aragorn is a beast and has near superhuman strength, speed, and stamina along with being an unmatched swordsman.

He is one of the finest Dúnedain of the Third Age.

Of course he's superhuman.

Alright u got me. Yeah, Aragorn gonna shit all over these folk. Big ol' steamy dump. With the visible heat lines coming off it too.

😂

You know, what I like about GoT fighters is that they're pretty realistic (excluding stuff like the zombie "upgrade"😉.

Aragorn... is not that.

And his last feat, that fight against the Olog-hai Chieftain at the Black Gate?

That was actually meant to be Aragorn facing Sauron himself. Before Jackson changed his mind and edited the troll in Sauron's place.

And they removed the scene with the mouth of sauron too.

And the scene where he is like "yeah, I'm 80 dawg" to that Rohan chick who wants to get dicked by him.

But the scenes you mentioned are still canon and perfectly available in the extended editions of the films.

Sauron/Aragorn fight got removed for good, we only see bits and pieces of it (and some black and white sketches) in the extras, when Jackson comments how he didn't want to steal the spotlight from Frodo and Sam, so he salvaged from the footage what he could and put a troll in Sauron's place.

Well yeah I know about them cuz I watched that extended shit.

Aragorn has been one of my heroes since a child. He mollywbops these mfers whether he has Anduril or not.

Most of Movie Aragorn's feats were performed without Anduril anyway, lol.

Isn't Aragorn a distant elfin descendant?

Very distant. He also has some Maiar (Angel) blood in him. FYI, Elrond is his many times great uncle.

Not that it really matters. Númenóreans are, as a race, superior warriors to most of the Elven races. The idea that Elves in LotR are superhuman and are far superior to men is generally untrue. That really only pertains to the Noldorian exiles and some (not all) of the Elven Lords. Even then Númenórean lords are often going to be there equal.

Basically, what I'm saying is Aragorn is mighty not because he has a little elven blood in him but rather because he is from a very noble lineage full of great heroes and kings.
