Drayco90'S Edgy Edges of Edginess and is a more ruthless foe.
 * Close Range- Witch-King. The puny hunting knife won't come close to hurting the Witch King, while the wraith will easily crush through Eragon, his armor and his dragon with the flail.
 * Mid-Range- Witch-King. The Nazgul Longsword is longer thus having more reach and can also be lit on fire, negating Brisingr's major edge.
 * Magic 1- Eragon. The Screech is a very powerful tool, and will probably cause Sapphira to become vulnerable and exposed mid-air, but can only be used to set up easy kills, not actually cause them.
 * Magic 2- The Witch King. He doesn't need his weapons, though they help. Like Witchey's own Magic 1, Eragon's magic here will help him a lot, but can't score it's own kill.
 * Magic 3- Witch King. Mental Dueling would invite Eragon into the mind of the Witch-King, something Witchey doesn't need to do to debilitate his foe. Inside the head of the wraith, Eragon will find intense suffering, hundreds of years of bound duty to a relentless cause without the ability to stop- an "I have no mouth, and must scream" scenario, and maybe even the eye of Sauron himself. Eragon would be more likely to be destroyed mentally trying it than the Witch-King would be harmed by it.
 * Special- Witch King. The bow isn't going to do much, especially while riding a dragon in air-combat.
 * Mount- Eragon. Saphira is more loyal and smarter, but her close connection to her rider is easily exploitable, and makes them both vulnerable.
 * Deadliest Warrior- The Witch-King. He's more experience, has better weapons, more effective magic
