Be it a Gentle Giant, an Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy, or The Big Guy with a mean streak, this character is an unbeatable scourge that other fighters either dread facing or anticipate fighting in order to gain fame for being the first to beat him. However, they all fail. But nothing lasts forever... Basically, this is a character who is introduced as and/or is famous for being brutally unstoppable, and, for a long time, they continue to be so, until that one hero (or villain) can finally show the world what he's made of by defeating him. These characters appear in varied roles: they can be a Big Bad, The Dragon, or, sometimes, just some seemingly unobtainable goal. Often, such a character will also be either a Jerkass or somewhat intimidating to give the hero even more support for beating him, but not always. This character may also play a role of the Goliath if the one who beats him looks to be totally outmatched at first glance. --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs ...

gregor clegane was never undefeatable though. he loses in season 1 and while that's technically true, when he loses in S1 its not actually a direct duel he loses (and even at that, it's with the only other person considered basically unbeatable) and he's still considered essentially an unstoppable force that nobody is willing to go against and in S4 --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs ...

the hound fights gregor to a standstill, and in the tv show, bronn specifically says he stands a chance against the mountain
gregor fits the trope of the dreaded more than the unbeatable, imo. but i do see why people are picking him, and it's more sensible to me than picking a face-heel turn for villainous valor! --- yet all sailors of all sorts are more or less capricious and unreliable - they live in the varying outer weather, and they inhale its fickleness ...
