10 Game Of Thrones Warriors Who Could Defeat The Mountain

9. Daario Naharis

HBO
"I only have two talents in this world: war and women."

Once a sellsword and co-captain of the Second Sons, Daario becomes besotted with Daenerys, causing him to savagely kill his fellow leaders and pledge his own life and his mercenaries to the Mother of Dragons.

In a show filled with spectacular, choreographed battles such as in The Mountain and the Viper, Daario is an abrupt, efficient killer who -€“ unlike Oberyn €“- doesn'€™t beat around the bush in combat. The full extent of his killing ability is seen at the gate of Meereen, where Daario strikes down the horse of the enemy champion before cleaving him in half almost instantly.

Daario Naharis professes to be skilled in the ways of women and war. His persistent approach to winning the affections of Daenerys have shown the former to be true and,€“ based on the evidence, the latter seems to be equally accurate. With his choice of Dothraki weaponry, Daario would be significantly faster than The Mountain, and his documented ruthlessness means he wouldn'€™t give Clegane any recovery time after inflicting first blood.
