Elgb's "Of Orcs and Dwarves" EDGES!!!

Main: Lol the only thing going for the Ball and Chain here is its range and length. But if you can get pass that large ball, which won't be that hard concerning that its pretty slow and a dwarf is able to dodge it, then you can render it almost useless (just don't get tangled with those chains). Its area effect sure, but the fragmentation it caused aren't like the shrapnels of an artillery strike here, so the area damage it has is slim. The Hammer of Angrund can dish out way more damage (it can break through magical armor) and its easier and more ergonomic to use. Its faster and allows Belegar to defend himself with it too through parrying or blocking. EDGE: Belegar

Secondary: A battle between the best defense against a good offense eh? Well this is a tough one. I have no doubt that the Shield of Defiance would block all of what Azog can throw at it. Azog's weapons can go through the light armor of his universe, but probably not somethign that can block magic and bullets. The only way for Azog to counter it is if he use the curves in his mace to pull the shield away, or better yet just wrestle it out of Belegar's hand. But then he has to deal with the hammer so it won't be easy. EDGE: Belegar

Deadliest Warrior?

I'm giving this one to the dwarf leader Belegar Ironhammer. The best thing about Azog is that he was a capable tactician who had to go up against dwarves, elves, humans and a wizard. But truth to be told he was throwing everything that he has against a small contingency of dwarves and elves, and an inferiorly armed city of humans and still lost (if he actually used those large worms that he had he might have won, lol like in HISHE).

Belegar might not have the same feats, but he has a large advantage in weapons and armor. All of Azog's weapons were made for brute force and shock and awe, while Belegar's has a perfect mix of offense and defense. As much as Azog tries to pound on Belegar with his strength and weapons, Belegar can push him off with his shield and deal a mighty blow with his hammer. That hammer is going to do wonders against Azog's unarmored body. Sorry Azog, but you are the one who's getting defiles today.
