It's true; Balor managed to get his 6 suborned generals to do his dirty work, but must have forgotten to mention that carrying out personal vandettas was forbidden. They seem to fight each other quite a bit, and something tells me it has nothing to do with brown-nosing for love and affection from Balor. Rather, each infighting Fallen seems infight in the first place for personal reasons.
When people mention who would win in a one-on-one fight, the Watcher or "___?" I believe such questions are pointless. Being one of the the greatest in Myth means not just holding your own in personal combat, but commanding an army with skill as well.
Perhaps the Watcher "barely survived" because he was bested 1on1, but his army defeated the Deceiver's & then came to his personal aid. If that is the case (though I don't like to think it) then the Watcher remains victorious for -1- surviving, and -2- smashing his enemy's army.
Also, I believe that his own power [the arrows] is the only way to destroy him. Connacht seemingly didn't think of that, so he did the next-best thing, and that's trap him indefinitely. One or 2 more golden arrows would have shattered the Watcher, just as a few good berserk swings would have done it.
As you may be able to tell, the Watcher is my favorite too.

Btw, what is your email address, Entity?
