Best human swordsman doesn't really mean most powerful fighter.
I'd guess that there are a lot more powerful martial characters than someone who is simply a very skilled swordsman. Regardless of D&D rules, in lore terms, there is a clear distinction between world-champion skill and the quasi-supernatural gifts that very high-level characters can attain. |

In Cannon History? I'm gonna assume some giff with a cannon who started blasting cr@p, though maybe it was someone using Thayan bombards and "cannon" is a little more loosely defined. |

Shuruppak or Abordabe, either one. If pure fighter, then Abordabe. If more versatile warrior, then Shuruppak.
As for Harmel Arrtu, have stats ever been given for him? I remember Ed posting that he was the greatest swordsman but don't recall any stats. |
I have a dream that one day, all game worlds will exist as one. |

Harmel Artru (NE hm Ftr9/T7: Dex 17, Cha 16) - although I suspect that's a 1E/2E version.
