Say we work out that Hurin was 0.00001% better than his son. Does that mean that if they played out a one-on-one fight 100 times that Hurin would always win? Of course not.

Entirely true. Then again, figuring out that Hurin is "0.00001%" better than Turin is exactly what this thread is for, since he would be, by a small margin, a better fighter.
Not that I think Hurin is. I'd be inclined to give Turin the edge, but you're right that they both should be near the top (if not at the top).

Leave Eowyn off and it might be a decent list. And saying "Elendil" would make it even better.
Quote:
Eowyn may not seem that good

Because she's not good enough to be on that list.

but she did kill the Witch-King

She happened to be the one standing there when he was made vulnerable by Merry's magic sword.

Rosie Cotton could've done that.
Stab the guy in the face with a sword while he's just sitting there. Who can't do that?
