probably

He is an excellent swordsman which makes him an excellent witcher. And yeah ciri isn't a witcher, so he probably is.

Vesemir or Eskel is stronger than Geralt by example if you wanna know.

Geralt and Letho are two the best swordsmen in the North. Ciri just a good warrior, but not the best.

Eskel trained at the same time as Gerelt. I can't remember if it's the books or the character info in the game, but Eskel is better. Also in the book, Vasemir is the fencing instructor and the only one who survived the assult on Kaer Morhen. Also, because of his age, he is the most experienced. So I'd assume he is the best.

It would be fair to assume so.



Geralt defeated 3 Viper school members and can kill Letho

There's 2 Cat school members he can kill.

Eskel was defeated and nearly killed by Caranthir, who is killed by Geralt. They're very close in skill though, as Caranthir had to resort to quick teleports to attack Eskel from behind.

Vesemir was killed by Imerlith, who is killed by Geralt Though there's no way of knowing how strong Vesemir was in his prime. He is the one who trained Geralt after all.

The only question is Lambert, we never really see him fight a stong opponent one on one. He can die at Kaer Morhen from a group of enemies, but that's not much to go on. It's safe to assume that Geralt is better, I guess.

As for Ciri, she has strong magical power, but she doesn't have the advantages of the witcher mutations - the enhanced speed, strength, endurance, and reflexes, plus the ability to drink toxic potions to further enhance their abilities. If we're talking about which is the better fighter, it's clearly Geralt. Though Ciri can kill pretty much whatever she wants by screaming, I guess..


tldr: there's no witcher in the series shown to be able to match Geralt.

So being syrong by default makes you excelent swordsman? I wonder why all the strongmen in the world are not master swordsman.

How is that a feat of strength?



The OP clearly asked about strongest, not about the most skilled or powerful.

Reading skills are clearly evading these forums.

There is no way of telling since there is no strength stat in Witcher games for Geralt or the other witchers

There's nothing to suggest that OP is talking solely about physical strength - especially since he mentions that he considers Ciri to be stronger than Geralt, which would obviously not be true if he were talking about physical strength.

I would believe the English language is very clear on the difference between strength, skill and power.

And I dont really care what he think dince there is no way of knowing that. I can only judge by wgat he writes. So if he write the elephant is pink I dobt care he thinks its green - he wrote pink. Its like you wack a guy in the head with a baseball bat and when the police arrives you tell tgem you only meant to say hello. Thats doesn't matter. Its your actions not your thoughts we judge

In the game when Geralt's fighting alongside the other witchers he has to do all the work. vesemir's blows dont do squat and Lambert sucks ass. Same with Eskel. I hope they're better in the books an infant drowner could kick thier ass.

Since geralt is the PC it would be stupid if Vesemir could kill everyone while you run away to pick more flowers for your garden

Context is not a difficult thing to understand. If you want to take everything 100% literally, then go ahead. But it's not unreasonable to assume that he's asking if Geralt is overall the best fighter among the witchers - essentially asking if there is a witcher capable of defeating Geralt. Or do you honestly believe he thinks Ciri is physically stronger than Geralt?

Then Letho is surely the strongest :)

Huh? Psychical strength is only a minor reason for Geralts skill with a sword. His agility, speed and reaction time are the main traits he uses and they are all prominent because of his training and mutations.
