Honorable Mentions

Beren One-Hand (First Age, Man)

Feats: Cut a Silmaril from Morgoth’s crown, survived Angband.

Why Honorable Mention: His bravery is unmatched, but his feats are more legendary and miraculous than a result of skill alone.

Who is the greatest warrior in middle earth history of the 3 main races? No  Maiar or Valar. : r/lotr

Legolas Greenleaf (Third Age, Elf)

Kills countless Orcs, fells a mûmakil single-handedly.

A peerless archer with supernatural agility, but not enough lore-established one-on-one combat feats to break the top ten.

Gimli, Son of Glóin Third Age, Dwarf

Slays over 40 enemies at Helm's Deep, competes with Legolas.

A formidable warrior and fiercely brave, but doesn't have the large-scale legendary duels that define the top tier.
