Hey guys i want to do a poll because i've read some people's opinion and i think theyre are totally stupid and i want to see LP's opinion.
You need to rank
#1 Spartacus:
#2 Theokolese:
#3: Onemaous:
#4: Crixus:
#5: Gannicus
#6: Cabarus (the dude from gods of the arena's final fight:
Mine is in this order:
#1 Theokolese: Beat Onemaous + should have beaten crixus+spartacus 1v2 EASILY if he didn't get blinded.
#2 Onemaous: Only one to "survive" theokolese. Beat crixus+spartacus 1v2 easily. Did decent against gannicus even if he had his hands shackled with a mediocre sword, with no equipment, and probably in poor shape.
#3 Cabarus: Was doing fine against both crixus and gannicus. Should have won if he finished gannicus instead of bragging to the crowd.
#4 Crixus: Many will disagree with this, but before he nearly died of his wounds against theokolese, he owned spartacus 1v1 VERY easily. After this, the one time he fought spartacus again he was still weak, and he was poisoned, and even with all of this he didnt do that badly.
Also the victory against theokolese is arguably more because of him. In a 1v1 fight, he managed to do a really good sword hit on theokolese, spartacus didn't manage to do anything until crixus completly blinded theokolese with sunlight (right before the blinding, spartacus didn't even have his sword anymore he was going to get owned for sure).
In addition to this, while Crixus was still really inexperienced, he was able to pull close matches against gannicus (or at least not get totally destroyed), i think once Crixus got experience and got at his best he should win.
#5 i can't really tell between spartacus and gannicus, seems like a really close match based on the episode where they fought together. Ill go with spartacus old actor > gannicus, but can't imagine new one owning anything.
Making a poll with this would be too complicated so just reply directly
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us and as we let our own lights shine we unconsciously give other people permision to do the same

Not sure how you can rank Onemaous above theokolese when theokolese destroyed Onemaous in an arena fight. It is made very clear in blood and sand that Onemaous is terrorized by theokolese.

lolll how is the relevant at all? discussion of fictional characters within fictional stories is a viable and legitimate discussion wtf...especially if it's there's satirical/political undertones within the stories/characters...
This is a stupid discussion. not cause the characters are fictional but cause spartacus is a crap show. time for a game of thrones hijack, rank these characters in fighting prowess in their prime:
(not put much thought into this, off the top of my head and prolly gonna forget some bosses):
Eddard Stark
Robert Baratheon
Khal Drogo
Jaime Lannister
Barristan Selmy ('barristan the bold')
Gregor Clegane ('the mountain')
Rhaegar Targaryen
Arthur Dayne ('sword of the morning')
edit: this list is random and not how i rank them

Theocles is obviously by far the best fighter, as you said he beat prime Onameus, and he also beat prime Crixus (pre-injuries)+spartacus.
Onameus beat spartacus + crixus (before spartacus prime tho).
Spartacus is better than Crixus, Crixus was severly wounded and is past prime and when he fought with spartacus, spartacus wasnt in his prime.
Cabarus was a tough opponent but Crixus was still a noob and he wasnt obliterated like he was against theocles
Oh wait, i totally forgot to mention it, but i meant to rank those people BASED ON THEIR prime. When you think about it if i asked to rank them of right now, theokoles would be the worst since he is dead.
RIGHT NOW i would have to agree crixus is possibly worst than spartacus/gannicus, considering all that happened to him.
also when you say "Cabarus was a tough opponent but Crixus was still a noob and he wasnt obliterated like he was against theocles" this is in some ways arguable. Noob crixus didnt really do anything to cabarus. Against theokoles, on the other hand, he actually "outskilled" theokoles by managing a sword hit that should normally have been lethal to most people, but theokoles was just such a toughie he nearly didn't care about it.
Also you would have to agree cabarus pwned everything for the whole fight, until gannicus somehow went berzerk out of nowhere (after looking at Onameus in the eyes) . its possible for "weaker" warriors to defeat stronger ones when using adrenaline, but i think that fight made it clear cabarus is normally stronger than gannicus, but hes whitout a doubt not even half what theokoles was.
I think this was the same thing as totally untrained spartacus defeating 4 warriors: even tho the 4 warriors should have won, spartacus went under extreme adrenaline and won, same thing gannicus did.
Btw about game of throne, i think its much tougher to rank them considering we don't see as many fights. If i had to take a guess i would say Kal Drogo considering to be at his place he just needs to be the strongest of them all, but ill just assume this question is reserved for people who have read the books, which i did not.
