Henry of Skalitz from the video game "Kingdom Come: Deliverance" takes on Zorro, aka Alejandro Murrieta from "The Mask of Zorro (1998)".

For the sake of this battle, Henry isn't in full plate and is instead wearing a bailiff's outfit.

The Scenario:

Henry has gone deep into the woods of Pribyslavitz to hunt some boars so that his butcher has meat, his bow and arrow at his side, along with St. George's sword in it's sheathe at his waist. He hears some footsteps coming from the brush, and just as he's about to unsheathe his sword, he hears the sounds of men being cut to pieces.

When he turns around, at his feet lie three dead peasant bandits, and a man in all black pointing a rapier at his face.

Being a gentleman, Zorro lets him unsheathe his weapon, and they get to fightin'.

Who wins? Who dies?

If Henry has beaten every quest in the game as a good guy and taken the combat route, he's devastatingly effective with a blade, one of the smartest people around, and a master in H2H combat, as well as the greatest champion the Rattay tourneys had ever seen.

He's defeated scores of men, some exceptionally skilled like the aforementioned Black Peter who went undefeated for years in the Rattay tourney and in a duel with the man who beat him he beat him when there were no rules, the foreign knight Ulrich who has decades of experience, Sir Hagen Zoul whose fought in tons of battles, and a Wayfaring Knight who duels for the sake of Honor.

Honestly there's a question of whether a rapier could be a superior weapon due to it's far more swift movements and the enthesis on thrusting as opposed to slashing.

But Henry is skilled enough to close that gap and then some, his mastery of a blade is almost superhumanly good.

That said, Zorro has his full kit, rapier, his whip, the works.

That said, St. George's Sword has superior reach by far.

That said if Henry gets close, it's over, Zorro needs to keep his distance, Henry is stronger, a better hand-to-hand fighter, and being a realistic knight, has knowledge of "wrestling" opponents.

I'd give it to Henry, dude is just too good despite having an arguably inferior weapon in comparison to the rapier.

St. George's Sword will also be far more deadly if it hits.
