Since we already have (2) Deadliest Warrior: Sci-Fi style going on here, I thought this idea also deserved some thought.
One thing I would really like to see would be a Lord of the Rings warrior going up against a Warcraft one. My preferred fight scenario would be:
Rohirrim vs. Felguard
Rohirrim:
Strengths - Versatile array of weaponry, all of which he can use skillfully. Extremely powerful when mounted. Very agile.
Weaknesses - Does not pack too much raw power. Crippled without a mount.
Weapons: Spear, Longbow, Shield, Sword
Felguard:
Strengths - Extremely powerful physical strength. Most hits would deliver a one-hit kill.
Weaknesses - Not too bright, nor fast. Chest and one arm are completely exposed.
Weapons: Greatsword, Greataxe, Minor Fel Magic
My personal vote would go for the Felguard. The Rohirrim may be a great fighter, but all the Felguard needs is one hit to cleave both the Rohirrim and his horse in two.
Who do you think will win this battle?

Rohirrim > Felguard
It's better to be agile, but not as strong than to be slow, but strong; you can out-maneuver you opponent, then strike; rinse and repeat.

I wouldn't call fel guards slow. They just aren't more agile than a standard warrior. I don't get what's with the idea that if something isn't fast, its slow.
Anyways, I don't really know enough about Lord of the Rings to really say one way or the other who would win.

I like the work you've put into this, but could u add some links? I don't play LoTR so I hav no idea what the Rohirrim are. And untill then I can't make my vote.

So... they're just soldiers on horses? In that case, a felguard would lay waste to one.
No, they're not just soldiers on horses. They're the damn best horsemen to have ever been spawned!

True, but the Felgaurd can take a good bit of dmg and if the Rohinim guy gets knocked off his horse its over, for him.

One Rohirrim wouldn't win against a Felguard, because his greatest strength is in the horse, and in small numbers, that can actually become a weakness. Now, if you had a legion of Rohirrim against a legion of Felguards, I'm not saying the Rohirrim would definitely win, but it'd be a more interesting fight.

A 5 v 5 battle, yeah. Those Squad ones were interesting. That one IRA decimated the Taliban (to those who saw that episode)
Still, Brute force has been shown to be superior then elegence in a matter of cases. Such as Mafia vs the Japanese Mafia (can't remember their real name)

The greater Tech always wins. As was proven in Pirate v. Knight
