But in show, I wil
If you read books, then you will see how was described four royal guards:
They were seven, facing three. In the dream as it had been in life. Yet these were no ordinary three. They waited before the round tower, the red mountains of Dorne at their backs, their white cloaks blowing in the wind. And these were no shadows; their faces burned clear, even now. Ser Arthur Dayne, the Sword of the Morning, had a sad smile on his lips. The hilt of the greatsword Dawn poked up over his right shoulder. Ser Oswell Whent was on one knee, sharpening his blade with a whetstone. Across his white-enameled helm, the black bat of his House spread its wings. Between them stood fierce old Ser Gerold Hightower, the White Bull, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard.
And this is Ned fighters:
"In the dream his friends rode with him, as they had in life. Proud Martyn Cassel, Jory's father; faithful Theo Wull; Ethan Glover, who had been Brandon's squire; Ser Mark Ryswell, soft of speech and gentle of heart; the crannogman, Howland Reed; Lord Dustin on his great red stallion. Ned had known their faces as well as he knew his own once, but the years leech at a man's memories, even those he has vowed never to forget. In the dream they were only shadows, grey wraiths on horses made of mist."
Now, it is obvious that all seven named royal guard weared full plate armor, best swords, best shileds, helmets. They even say that if they was on Trident, Robert wouldn't be able succeed. Robert defeated Raegar, but Raegar wasn't known as best, insteat of Kingsguard. Every one of them was the strongest, beyond all, especially Arthur Dayne with famous sword, the Dawn. Like if you want some comparioson, you should compare the Hound with em, or Brienna(she defeated Hound), and Brienna wasn't even close to them. The only knight that you can take as example is Barristan Selmy, and he even wasn't the strongest. Those seven knight was masters of sword. Maybe only Khal Drogo could be compared to em with only his skill(I mean he killed two Khals in one battle). The Mountain, Oberin and even Jayme wasn't even close to them. Jayme was newbie at Kingsguard.
And what did Ned? He took his friends with him...so this is looking insane, difference was too big. But then again, Ned was taking a part in a war, and maybe he was stronger than Robert in Battle. The openingwas created when Howland Reed dealed damage on Arthur, obviouselly case of Neds own skills. Only three survived in that battle 7x4, and Reed play possum....so in the end it was only Ned and Arthur who survived for last clash, and when Arthur was going to kill Ned, Reed saved him.
So what exactly have Benjamin? We know that wilds tribes, didn't even know what means discipline or rules...and we know that less than hundred Night Watch members stopped 100.000 number of them. So..
