🧝Legolas vs. Glorfindel

[Link]

Who would win.


I picked Glorfindel.

 

[FrankSinatra]

Yes

No doubt, Glorfindel.

 

[Burb]

Glorfindel would rip legolas apart.

 

[BlackCaptain]

Glorfindell killed a Balrog and is an ancient elven prince of the greatest elf-kingdom of all time. Legolas is the son of a king. I wonder who would winn...

 

[Ithrynluin]

Glorfindel, without a doubt. He is a High Elf, Legolas is not. I think that's quite a distinction.
If Legolas was pitted against a Balrog would he have succeeded in killing it? Who can say, but I believe he would have perished in the attempt without much success.

I agree completely

 

[ms Greenleaf]

I actually chose Legolas just because of the arguments you put up... I would gamble on the underdog because if I won it would mean more cash

Legolas scared of Balrog

When Legolas was confronter by the Balrog in Moria he dropped his bow and let out a squeal.
Glorfindel could ride out to confront the 9 and had already killed a balrog.
No contest

I just got through reading FotR again and oddly I don't remember that, when exactly did it happen?

Anyway, I agree with everyone who thought Glorfindel would win, and I think it would be no contest. And I wouldn't be placing any bets so I wouldn't worry about the odds.

 

[Maeglin]

A wise and correct choice by all of you with the exception of Ms Greenleaf. If the 2 were to fight it would be a duel lasting no longer than a span of 11.87 seconds!

 

[FoolOfATook]

This isn't even a contest- Glorfindel would tear Legolas apart. It's kind of like if, say, Boromir challenged Beren, or Shadowfax dared to take on the legendary Bill the Pony.

Actually, he said something like 'Ai, ai, a Balrog! A Balrog is come!', which is just about as useful. Although they wouldn't directly fight eachother, Glorfindel is easily more powerful.

'Ai, ai, a Balrog! A Balrog is come!'

Hmm. Not too convincing if you're gonna try to tell me that Glorfindel would be defeated.

On the other hand, Glorfindel looked pretty girly to me in the movie version of LOTR. In this case, I'd place my money on Legolas.

 

[BlackCaptain]

Actualy, it might depend on how far apart the two started... I don't recall reading anywhere that Glorfindell was a master archer, although Legolas can draw his bow and have it strung in the blink of an eye... Legolas might have a fighting chance, but only because it takes one arrow to kill someone if it's stratigically placed, say in the middle of the chest

 

[Lantarion]

Haha.
I also voted for Glorfindel, but the question is quite vague: in hand-to-hand armoured combat Glor would win, hands down; if the two were a long way from each other I think Legolas would make Glorfindel look like a porcupine before he had even seen his bow.
But as the latter is very, very rare scenario I think voting for Glorfindel would be wise.

 

[Beleg]

This is the funniest thread that i have ever come across!! LoL.

Definately Glorifindel! I dare Legolas to stop a Black-Rider while even the Witch-King feared Glorifindel. Conclusion! Glorifindel GO!

Boromir challenged Beren, or Shadowfax dared to take on the legendary bill the pony

The legendary bill the Pony would only remain as a Legend, the rest would be destroyed. Afterall Shadowfax is the NinjaHorse!!!

Conclusion: Shadowfax go!

 

[Gil-Galad]

Well............
1 I hate .......I do hate Legolas.
2He did nothing actually.He is the only one from the fellowship who didnot have any personal development,who didnot change.
3Glorfindel is GREATER THAN LEGOLAS IN EVERY ASPECT WE COMPARE THEM.

I think that explains for who I will vote.

 

[Lady_of_Gondor]

No contest...........Definately Glorfindel. He is much older and wiser, and he has had much more battle experience. Legolas, though noble in his own right, is just a woodland elf. And besides that he is a mere child in the span of an elvish lifetime. It would be like a healthy 35 year old man challanging a 8 year old to a dual. There's hardly an argument here for Legolas.

 

[legolasismine]

I place all my money on Legolas!
Why cause if he won I'd get all your money.....lol but if he lost I'd really wouldn't care cause I still love him!

 

[Beleg]

And may i ask why do you love him?
