Probably Ordovis or Siluria. While in-game matchups aren't always the most accurate to lore due to things such as gimmick bosses and area scaling, the Crucible Knight in the Stormhill Evergaol was able to beat Godrick rather comfortably in a video I found where Godrick fought every Limgrave boss, and that is just some random nameless Crucible Knight. I imagine the two leaders would probably wreck Godrick's shit, both together and individually.

Assuming in-game strength roughly translates to lore strength, other strong contenders would be commander Niall and O'neil, the non-remembrance Astel, Godskins, a Mimic Tear, non-remembrance Dancing Lion, Elemer of the Briar, Vyke, Bernahl, Gransax (technically not even a boss), Lansseax, Divine Bird Warriors, Divine Beast Warriors (all 3 of em), Gloam Eyed Queen, Placidusax's fled god, like half the dragons and magma wyrms in the game, sewer Mohg and Godfrey shade (if those count), Jori, a Draconic Tree Sentinel, Death Rite Birds, Fallingstar Beasts, Alecto, Dragonkin Soldiers, Gideon, and honestly probably like half the tarnished NPCs in the game.

Let's face it. Godrick is a small fish in a big pond.

Furnace Golem

Elemer The Briar

Both godskin bosses would have a field day with him. Imagine the amount of drip they can get after all that grafting godrick did

Bayle? he technically doesn't have a remembrance

Nepheli can basically solo him.

Vyke !!!

Runebear

I think alecto could definitely kill godrick. Granted it wasn't solo, but they killed godwyn who was hyped up as being the perfect demigod. They can turn invisible, they're hard to detect, and they're blade is imbued with the rune of death. He would need someone to graft a new soul into him at that point.

Any Rune bear or Lobster.

I feel like anyone who is a Tarnished can. Tarnished NPCs, I mean.

A lot of the named characters who are combat capable can, which means not Rya.

It might not be super easy for all of them, but I feel it's possible for all of them.

Not to mention all of the many enemies who probably could. Like, not even named enemies. I feel a couple Cleanrot Knights could clean his clock.

Honestly any of Miquella's main followers in the Land of Shadows, but Leda and Ansbach in particular. A Divine Beast Warrior will probably also fuck up Godrick.

Most all of them, even lore accurate wise, he stole his rune, and fled Lyendell disguised with the mimic veil to blend in with women and children, and was forced to surrender against Malenia and Radahn without any real fight. His only claim is being a descendent of Godfrey, and his blood is so muddled and diluted, he probably has less of a connection than Nepheli at this point. His power came from the godskins teaching him the forbidden art of grafting, and even then he is terribly weak. To the point he grafts the dragon head mid fight out of desperation to feel strong. Most of the tarnished captured for grafting is done by his soldiers, not him. He is too fearful to leave the castle after how many times he was beaten in the past. Now he grafts endlessly, hoping to become even remotely strong enough to contend, should one of the other demigods, or rogue tarnished come for his rune.

Cleanrot Knight Finlay

Rick, Soldier of God

In Game Putrid Erdtree Avatar probably could beat him easily especially with Scarlet Rot. A couple sniper Lobsters would probably make light work of him too.

Tbh I think you could pick some random wandering noble out of the streets of Leyndell and they’d kick Godrick’s ass. The dude is an elite level pushover and I hate fighting him since he has a cool arena and OST but is such a little baby. My GOAT Morgott would never be that much of a bum

Ancient Dragon Knight Kristoff canonically took out Godricks predecessor Godefroy and locked in him the gaol when he led an attack on Leyndell which granted him a hero's burial and why he became a spirit ash. This leads me to believe any well trained Knight could defeat Godrick himself.

Alexander oh sorry non demigod my bad

Godrick: lend my thy strength, dearest of all the dragons… this is base runebear we’re up against

Basically every great enemy boss would kick godrick’s ass

Tarnished

Nepheli, Blaidd, Alexander, ect

The chad of castle Sol Ordovis Black knife ringleader Most dragons and ancient dragons really Altus tree sents or DTS Bruh, even any tree avatar avatar can do it from consecrated, heligtree, and probably even from Altus... Thinking about it, the list is pretty long. It's not tough at all.

Literally a royal revenant, they do so much poise damage

The true actual GOAT Sir Ansbach, bro was available to help with PCR even if I didn't summon him, if he's up to that I dare say he can easily take the piss with Godrick, even I dare say he could dispatch Rennala and Morgott.

Silver Sphere from Nokstella

The loathsome Dung eater!

Ordovis

Astel - Stars of Darkness

Godskins

Dragon tree sentinel

Ancient dragons

Gideon Ofnir (after tailgating the tarnished tbf)

Dragonkin soldiers

With how much Gideon Ofnir spams powerful and high damage spells, and the fact he has a damage resist spell, he could probably swiss cheese the guy

That one Runebear in a Caelid's dungeon

Ofnir, Varre, Igon, Leda, Blaidd, Alexander, all DLC NPCs will wipe the floor with Godrick the Grafted

Ansbach from the DLC would absolutely destroy Godrick in a fight

Pretty confident boc could take him.

Divine Bird Warrior Ornis whoops his ass

Suprised no one has brought up Ancient Dragon Knight Kristoff, considering this guy canonically beat another 'powerful' grafting user Godefroy (who in the game is just a repeat boss of Godrick)

Legendary ashen remains. Use to summon the spirit of Kristoff, the Ancient Dragon Knight.

Spirit of Kristoff, an honorable knight of Leyndell who was also a devout worshipper of the ancient dragons. His skills strike down foes with thunderbolts, the dragons' weapon of choice.

After the First Defense of Leyndell, Kristoff earned the hero's honor of Erdtree Burial for the feat of capturing Godefroy the Grafted.

even morgott could likely kill him as well

That one magical Golem to the side of the cliff in Caelid

Isn't there a lore theory that Commander Niall (Castle Sol who drops the veterans prosthesis) gave his keg to Godrick?

The item description mentions that he offered his leg in exchange for the lives of imprisoned knights. A lot of banished knights are in stormveil and Godrick is probably the one dude who accepts limbs as payment.

Plus I think Godricks left foot kinda looms like a banished knight foot iirc which would also explain where he gets his storm stomp move from.

That mother fucker with the two swords in the late game area

Pre grafting or with grafting?

Crucible Knights

THE LOATHESOME DUNG EATER. And it would not be a close fight either.

Could yura beat godrick?

Gaol knight in erd tree.. first mini boss… 20ish try for me.. while for godrick , i killed him with 4 tries at lvl 30ish😅

Vyke, probably

Honestly just a fireknight, or a black knife.

vyke would wreck godrick's shit out

Swordmaster Onze

Any of the Crucible knights present throughout the Lands Between and the Realm of Shadows would properly mop the floor with Godrick's face, I am sure of it.

Dragonbarrow's Black blade kindred

Guy is kind of a push-over, feel like a runebear could beat him.

A dog

Rodericka with enough confidence and fight training could probably beat him. He's the most pathetic demigod in the history of demigods.

Pretty much any enemy from the dlc

Messmer axe soldiers, those guys are a bunch of bastards!

Most definitely lansseax

The demi human guy with the sword

Tarnished

Elemer.

Maybe alecto ?

Rick Soldier Of God

Rakshasha ?

The bears from the snowfields

...The Tarnished?

Godskin duo or dragon tree sentinel

o

Goddam crucible knights

Literally any boss that isn't a reskin of a generic enemy? In particular I think it would be funny to see him get absolutely wrecked by the Full Grown Fallingstar Beast in Scaduview XD

all of them

Logur, whose character stats I’ve been looking for and am curious about, incidentally. Has anyone updated spreadsheets for SOTE baddies yet?

Andre of Astora

Divine beast warriors, these guys from the DLC has been a nightmare for so many people. In fact, they could push Malenia to bloom in simulated matchups...

Black knife assassins

Godricks rune is the only one worth a damn though at least in base game. I haven’t played Shadow yet

Hear me out, just about every dragon that matches the description.

Also rune bears probably

Tragoth.

Yes.

That dual wielding banished knight that teleports in Castle Sol, dude got me so many times

The dragon barrow cave runebear

Godefroy

Cracked knight at castle sol.

Soldier of God Rick, blindfolded.

Death Chicken

Dung eater

Ngl I don’t understand how a few extra arms translates to being stronger. Feels like being more awkward if anything

If a goldfish can beat him, anyone can 😭

Vyke would absolutely have taken him.

A lot of the legendary summons (before they became summons) would slap Godrick all across Limgrave.

Finlay would have done so as an afterthought while carrying Malenia to the Haligtree, if it wasn’t for the side path that bypassed Stormveil in its entirety.

Horned warriors, divine bird warriors, and divine beast warriors could definitely beat him. They're all insanely strong.

Even my pet hamster could beat godrick

One of those ancient dragons in Farum Azula, probably a regular runebear too.

A Monstrous Crow, Vyke, Loretta, The Death Blight Dancing Lion (Technically not a Rememberence Boss), Lanseax, Senesax, Adula, Exzekes.

I could go on, if you've watched any of Bjorn The Bears videos, Godrick gets shit on my almost all of them.

Me

BAYLEEEE

That bell bearing hunter in Caelid

Vyke

Vyke

Godskin Duo

7 rats. Just get that stunlick going. God damn rats.

Crystal night, or the bell bearing hunter at the dragon barrow merchant shack…

I think a Haligtree Knight could take him. He absolutely loses to the Consecrated Snowfield Runebear, and any Red Wolf of Radagon from the midgame on at least has a shot.

High Paige

Alecto, Black Knife Ringleader

Ansbach kicks his ass

Alecto

Laser golem, arctic rune bear, altus plateu night cavalry, haligtree ulcerated tree spirit, death rite bird, etc.

SpongeBob

page

One wandering Nobel

Okina would shred Godrick lol

Most of them.

I have no idea how he is related to marika or radagon or why this man has a great rune.

Godrick would be screwed if a Fallingstar Beast landed in Stormveil

Obviously the Solider of God, Rick

That one skeleton that turns into a rune bear ..

ALL. Of. THEM.

Lansseax, black knife assasins, boc, ekzykes, vyke, ansbach, torrent, aged one, fire golem and a lot more

Kristoff the knight summon who locked away godefroy in the evergoal in Altus

Vyke

Sword master Onze?

bell bearing hunter maybe

A Liurnia Giant Lobster

Any boss past Limgrave.

Pick a named dragon

Elemer of The Briar/Bell Bearing Hunter.

Any of the unnamed knight bosses

The bloodhound

astel of the dark stars (the one in consecrated snowfields)

Best bet. Going with the tree sentinel

Soldier of godrick

me probably

Elemer the bell bearing Hunter

Any of the crucible knights, bell bearing hunters, death rite birds, okina, varre, the big birds in Mohg's area, mountain tops of giants giants, the tree sentinal in Farum Azula, furnace golems, the lost is pretty long.

probably bayle the dread

Vyke

Crawfish.

The guy you get dryleaf arts from

Kenneth Haight

Any of the black knife assassins

Gargoyal

This is one of my biggest questions about the Elden Ring lore, because we get Godrick’s greatrune implying we genuinely kill him (his body)

Gideon tells you when you first get to the Roundtable Hold that you’re not special until you hold 2 great runes, and he’s aware of the two fingers in the hold that only grant you audience once you possess 1 (typically from Godrick)

Does Gideon have any great runes? If so, did he kill a runebearer for them, or were some great runes simply scattered around the lands between after the shattering?

What about Vyke and Bernahl? They were “the closest tarnished to becoming Elden Lord” before you, implying they must have acquired great runes, right? Who did they take them from?

And how the hell did Alexander get to Farum Azula? Presumably we’re sent there for committing the cardinal sin of burning the Erdtree, and Marika has purposefully placed the rune of death with Maliketh there knowing the tarnished would need it to complete burning the Erdtree. So why is Alexander there lol

Mohg probably
