[Spoilers] If Arthur Dayne and Gerold Hightower faced off against Jon Snow, The Hound, The Mountain, Jaime (2 Hands) Lannister, Oberyn Martell, and Qhorin Halfhand who would win?

Arthur Dayne is considered by far the greatest swordsman the Westeros has ever seen and in the battle at the Tower of Joy we saw him and Gerald (until he was killed by Ned) easily kill 4 of the men brought to rescue Lyanna, incapacitate Howland Reed, and almost kill Ned Stark before being stabbed in the back of the head by Howland.

If instead in the present day Jaime, The Hound and Mountain, Oberyn Martell, Jon Snow, and the Halfhand, 6 of the best swordsmen in Westeros fought against Dayne and Hightower, who would win?

In my opinion, the first to drop would be The Mountain. The Mountain is able to prey on lesser opponents who aren’t nearly as skilled and would probably just charge in like Howland Reed did in the Tower of Joy fight and with a swift swing of the sword, the mountain would be flat on his back.

The other 5 would quickly split into 2 groups. The Halfhand and Hound fighting Hightower while Jon Snow, Oberyn, and Jaime fought Arthur Dayne. The Halfhand and Hound would quickly overwhelm Hightower and he would be killed while Jon Snow would be cut down by Arthur Dayne.

The 4 experienced fighters would try to surround Dayne who would keep them at bay as best as he could. Out of the 4 remaining fighters he would recognize the Halfhand as the weakest. He would work to escape the circle the 4 swordsmen had created and began to focus on the Halfhand. Dayne would focus all of his energy on the Halfhand and strike him down, escaping the encirclement. Now Dayne began to move on Oberyn, but Oberyn was to agile and Dayne would be hit by one of martell’s spears and the poison would begin to seep in. Now Jaime and the Hound would begin going after Dayne who would be unbalanced, and the combined strength of the three remaining swordsmen would be too much and Dayne would be cut down.

This is just my opinion and you can disagree. I picked these 6 just because they came to my head, their probably are better swordsmen.
