Today we’re going to look at some of the most powerful dragons in House of the Dragon and Game of Thrones lore. There are over two dozen familiar dragons in the entire lore. But we’re going to look at the best ones who have achieved greater feats in R.R. Martin’s books and the live action shows. So here are the most powerful dragons in Game of Thrones lore.
This is actually the Strongest Dragons in House of the Dragon ranked video. Check it out.
#houseofthedragon #drogon #gameofthrones
awful video none of danys dragons are nearly as big or as powerful as old or as seasoned as abt any from the dance of the dragons or prior
really put caraxes that low even though he kills vhagar
Caraxes at 7 disrespectful
I disagree with this list
Caraxes should've been higher…. At least higher than Vhager or just after him
The cannibal was said to be bigger than Balerion
Zombie dragon cant really die as long som bug eyed midget girl dont mary su his ass with a shitty knife trick ! Fucking writers !
Wait!! Where is the cannibal??
The Order is Trash
Cannibal is definitely my favourite because he is the only dragon who has managed to survive for insanely long. Best part is he could technically still be alive after GoT too.
Your voice sounds like that girl who was selling hot chocolate and got trolled by a man 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Sorry I don't know the name of the movie or series
my favourite dragon is Drogon Viserion the zombie dragon and his fire breath is changes into ice breath Rheagal Caraxes Vhagar the second largest dragon of the game of thrones vermithor third largest dragon in the game of thrones but I cant no his bigger or smaller than vhagar but his my favourite dragon and last my most favourite dragon Balerion the black dread the largest dragon in the game of thrones
Rhaegal does not get the Respect he deserves he would have killed his brother if he was not already dead ripping his neck and part of his face off you guys just put viserion at 2 because he turned into a walker such bullshit rhaegal was bigger and stronger
Maelys should be higher on the list since she fought a 2 on 1 battle and managed to kill one of them.
Also, Caraxes should also be higher as well as he went toe to toe with Vhagar and technically won.
Danny’s second dragon for second place is highly questionable.
Danny’s dragons are nothing compared to vermithor and caraxes let alone vaghar and visenya – please be real if you are gonna make a video

Qyburn, Gendry, and Laena Velaryon nearly made the cut. Not a Hodor fan but Hold The Door was a fantastic episode. All Bronn did was save Lannister brothers. All good ol' Uncle Benjen did was save his nephews. I liked Renly but not Loras. Renly seemed like a kind gay man.
Daemon debuted at #6 after one episode. He's now at #1 after three episodes. And I don't see anybody surpassing him. We only got a flashback for Arthur Dane and Barristan Selmy was already too old when we first see him. We get Rogue Prince at his absolute prime of his life.
Daemon is the GOAT BAMF we never got from Game of Thrones while still having a complicated and colorful personality. He's my Darth Vader, Batman, and Iron Man of GOTverse. He's my Jaime/Tyrion Lannister, Bronn, Euron Greyjoy, Oberyn Martell, Khal Drogo, and Jon Snow rolled into one.
Just for me –
Viserys > Ned
Rhaenyra > Daenerys
Rhaenyra is already funnier to me with her insults than Dany in all 8 seasons of GOT. Viserys might be a WEAK KING but I believe Paddy Considine is doing a better job as Viserys than Sean Bean as Ned Stark. I'm enjoying these HOT D characters even though I'm aware of their fate and I wasn't sure I would like a lot them beyond Daemon. I already knew Daemon's popularity and reputation among book fans prior to this show.
Lyonel Strong will move up high on my list the more the season progresses. He could be top 50 by Sunday. He's more Varys than Littlefinger. He only cares about protecting the realm. He's currently ranked 11th on my HOT D list behind Laena. It's just I'm aware Laena will grow up and be a dragon rider herself! Laena is that little girl who is going to turn into a likeable character once the decade time jump happens.
Interesting that I have Cersei, Tywin, Otto, and Littlefinger all next to each other. I enjoy bad characters if the acting and scheming are great. I also have Alicent and Sansa next to each other even though I think Alicent is more of a Margaery by this point. But I believe Alicent will keep moving up my ranks once Olivia Cooke takes over after Emily Carey.
Characters I hated? Obviously, Joffrey Baratheon and Ramsay Bolton. I thought Ramsay was worse. Was way more sadistic. Joffrey was just an annoying brat but I hated how he ordered Ned to be executed and hated that he killed Ros. I hated Shae but pretty much everybody did. If only Daemon taught Rickon Stark how to dodge arrows. 🤣 Rickon was the most useless Stark. No Bran Stark or Theon Greyjoy for me. No Yara and Sand Snakes. Well, maybe Tyene. She and perhaps her bad poosy makes me thirsty.
Hated Samwell's father, Randyll Tarly, but I guess he was no different than Tywin. While Dickon Tarly seems like a Beavis & Butt-Head joke they would laugh at. I never cared for Catelyn Stark although Red Wedding was still shocking and sad. I hated how Cat treated Jon. If she only knew Jon was really her nephew, she wouldn't have acted like a c*nt towards him all those years. Ned had to keep lying, so Jon got mistreated by his aunt. But his other aunt from his real father's side, he got to smash her.. 🤣 Incest is a perk being a Targ! #wincest
I'm impressed that 9 characters from HOT D has already made my top 50 after 3 episodes. And it will continue to grow once Alicent's children and Laena Velaryon grows up. We have another pair of Lannister twins. Does that mean Tyland and Jason sleep together? Remember when Cersei slept with her first cousin, Lancel, when Jaime was away? Targaryens do incest to tame dragons. Lannisters do incest out of fun.
My Favorite GOT/HOT D Dragons
1. Drogon
2. Caraxes
3. Syrax
4. Seasmoke
5. Rhaeghal
6. Viserion
So far, I've seen Drogon the most and he's still #1 for me even though I'm not the biggest fan of his mother but I don't actually hate Daenerys. I hated her brother more.
Drogon still looks cooler than Caraxes. But I do love Caraxes' temperament similar to his rider's. And according to Reddit fans, Caraxes is the 3rd greatest dragon behind Balerion and Vhagar. When you want ferocious, you choose Caraxes. The more I see Blood Wyrm, the more he can move up. But seeing Caraxes' belly from the recent episode made me turned off by his design.
From the three dragons from the 17 we'll see in this series, I think Seasmoke looks the best so far. His color was like camouflage in the clouds and fog. Love the shape of his head. I can't wait when we get to see BIG GIRL that Laena mentioned. I would like to see a very green dragon 🐲 for once. I also want to see a golden dragon like Sunfyre.
The Battle Above The Gods Eye between Vhagar/Aemond vs. Caraxes/Daemon should be the series finale. Balerion would actually be my favorite if we're talking books here. Balerion is the GOAT. Some are asking, did Daemon catch grey scale since he was holding Crabfeeder's wrist. But Daemon has Targaryen blood exceptionalism. Dragon riders don't die from diseases.

50. Godzilla
I wish Joe Pesci's Tommy DeVito (Goodfellas) and Nicky Santoro (Casino) made the cut but alas. They both used to rank in my top 30. Yoda used to rank higher than Han but decided to move him down a bit.
Characters I love from Mad Men like Roger Sterling and Joan Harris also didn't make the cut. Too many great characters I love. I can name hundreds of them. Don't get me started with characters I enjoyed from Tarantino films. I couldn't even include Floyd from True Romance and Brad Pitt was awesome as him. No Captain Jack Sparrow and Negan either.
All I know is Daemon Targaryen should be the poster boy of GOT lore moving forward. And he's not even the main protagonist to HOT D. I learned a new word yesterday. Walter from The Big Lebowski is described as a deuteragonist. That means being the 2nd most important character to the story. That's Daemon. To me, HOT D is really about Rhaenyra's journey to the throne.
Rhaenyra Targaryen AKA The Realm's Delight is a great character herself. Not a Mary Sue and an annoying feminist Karen like Jennifer Walters from She-Hulk is. I wish in HOT D, we see Rhaenyra face Alicent and go…
"You broke my heart 💔, Alicent. You broke my heart. I loved you. I can never get over you."
It's been 3 years and Rhaenyra still can't get over her girlfriend marrying her father. I don't mind seeing a lesbian couple heartbreak scene. Emma D'Arcy seems lesbian any way and her chemistry with Olivia Cooke off-camera is awesome. And I think Alicent still has feelings for Rhaenyra too.
Man those dragons light my eyes u
I REALLY wish they would do a spinoff with Balerion. The dragons are my favorite part of the show
My top 5 biggest:
Belerion
Vhegar
The Cannibal
Maraxes
Vermithor
Which one is my favourite? The Cannibal. We saw Viserion with blue fire and i hope they will show us The Cannibal with green fire.
DROGON ❤️
I stopped watching after spoiling death of meleys.. You know yiu can describe how formidable they are without spoilers..
Disliking the video.
Girl Meleys at lvl 10… girl no and Vhagar is a Female Dragon.
They say the cannibal was just as big as baliron
how about The Cannibal?
vhagar's female
Caraxes remembers me smaug
i hope won time in the future there'd be a prequel about dragonlords in valyria. with the doom of valyria been the peak of the show and Aegons conquest ending the show. we all need to witness Balerion's madness
just because drogon was the main dragon in GOT you cannot just say he was stronger than vhagar.(avoid giving spoilers).
This list is so weird, you mention that syrax wont be in this list because there are older and more powerful dragons, yet you put viserion and dragon as number 3 and number 2. They’re like 4 years old and half the size of Caraxes who is like 70 years old..
