In the LOTR and Hobbit universe, if these two enemies met on the battlefield. Who wins?
-
Balrog?

Pikachu

1 ReplyUmm, if you have read the silmarillion it says that Balrogs ride dragons. So the Balrogs are already the master over them.
-
Smaug. He's a dragon come on people.

WW2 Russia. Probably the viewers :D

Batman with prep time

Side thought: if Sauron had been aware of Durin's Bane and rallied him to his side would he have won?

8 RepliesBalrog apparently. Did some research and found someone on another forum who knows what they're talking about. [quote]There were three battles occuring with Balrogs: - Glorfindel vs. a Balrog: both perished - Echtelion vs. Gothmog: both perished - Gandalf vs. a Balrog: both perished There were four battles with Dragons: - Turin vs. Glaurung: Turin killed the dragon without dying himself - Eärendil vs. Ancalagon: Eärendil killed the dragon - Fram vs. Scatha: Fram killed the dragon - Bard vs. Smaug: Bard killed the dragon Can any conclusion be made from this? The Balrogs fought with two Eldar and a Maia, and all of them perished in the fight.The Dragons fought with three men and a half-elf and none of the latter died in combat. Do I really have to say it out loud? The Balrogs would win over dragons any day![/quote]

1 ReplyWhilst the Balrog did technically kill Gandalf, he fought him one on one. Gandalf didn't try to fight Smaug one on one and even though Smaug died to a normal human I feel like he may have been kind of distracted. I don't know. This is a tough one. But I'll say Smaug because Gandalf took out a Balrog singlehandedly. The real question is can they actually harm each other?

11 RepliesEdited by Roose Bolton: 1/15/2014 1:00:51 AMBalrog's are basically demigods. They can't really die. Whereas as we've explicitly seen, dragons including Smaug, can. There's your answer.
-
I want to say Smaug because Benedict Cumberbatch and actual conversational skills, but he really wouldn't stand a chance.
-
My vote goes to the Balrog. Dragons are mortal (though extremely long-lived) creatures, whereas the Balrogs are immortal spirits in physical form. Zizou's discovery makes a good point as well.
-
Probably Smaug. At least, against the balrog Gandalf beat. Gothmog could probably best Smaug.

Edited by Dovahkiin: 1/14/2014 9:35:02 PMBalrog, no contest.
-
Smaug is more agile.
-
Uhm... The Balrog would actually win but dragons r kewlr
-
This isn't even a contest. Smaug. The dragon had only one weakpoint. The spot with the scale missing. Otherwose he was invulnerable. Gandalph took out the Balrog in hand to hand combat.
-
Balrog is a dark power. He has the power to inspire armies and and strike cold fear into the strongest of foes.
-
Smaug.
