LSP95's "I wrap my toes in duct tape to keep them from getting away" EDGES!!!!

Close Range EDGE: Broadsword - The Broadsword is a much larger and powerful weapon than the Acinaces, and its large brutal nature fits with the Viking's fighting style.

Mid Range EDGE: Persian Spear - The Persian Spear is an all around better weapon than the Great Axe. It has a greater balance due to the metal ball on the opposite end of the wooden pole, opposite of the blade, not to mention that this metal ball was used as a blunt force tool in combat.

Long Range: Persian Bow - A bow will almost always be a better choice in combat than anything thrown.

Special Weapons: Sagaris - Viking Sheilds were shit. They were made of leather and wood and broke easy, and while you can kill with a sheild along with blocking, I rather have the Sagaris for its greater killing power.

Overall EDGE: Persian Immortal - Persian Immortals were exceptionally well trained warriors. They bring superior training and superior weapons to this bout, and that is why they are the deadliest warrior.
