Saruman vs. Smaug Can't Post

Ok, with it being said that Saruman is better than Gandalf the Grey, and he has a Ring, then who wins this one?

Smaug [In reply to] Can't Post

- Gandalf the White > Saruman the White/Many-coloured
- Smaug > Gandalf the White (if the other battle is anything to go by)

Therefore:

- Smaug > Saruman the White/Many-coloured

Cheers

Smaug could sit on him [In reply to] Can't Post

He's big, he breaths fire, and he can fly. Saruman's real power lays in his leadership abilities. For example, when all of his orcs got torn up by the ents, he was near powerless to effect the battle.

Hmmmm [In reply to] Can't Post

Yes but by then he was Saruman of many colors. Saruman the White however, was much more powerful than Saruman of many colors, but still not good enough for Smaug.

And I say.... Smaug! [In reply to] Can't Post

Tongue I've always liked Dragons too, and as facts state, Smaug would.

Dagonet,
Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shdows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

Restatement [In reply to] Can't Post

Actually, Padster's right. Saruman of Many Colors is more powerful than Saruman the White. Many Colors had a ring of power, and I forgot about that. So perhaps Saruman would defeat Smaug.
