The Wolves go for the throat. We go for the eyes. Then the tongue. Then the hands. Then the feet. Then we skin the crippled remains, and offer it up as an example to any still bearing witness. The wolves were warriors before they became soldiers. We were murderers first, last, and always."

And the last third was stupid as hell.
Well most of the 5th Edition Codexes were pretty bad especially the Space Marines and their counterparts but the SW and the BA still retained some modicum of awesomeness. The Vanilla Smurfs? Nope.
We'll have to disagree on that - the Ultramarines and their descendants still hold true to the promise of the Great Crusade.
Eldar? An Avatar might beat him.him.
Technically, an Avatar is a Daemon, so no.

I'd agree to an extent with the Blood Angels, but the Space Wolves was IMHO worse fluffwise than the vanilla Marine codex.
By eliminating fear, superstition, religion, and magic, the Emperor meant to starve the Chaos Gods by withholding from them the sustenance they gleaned from worship, knowing and unknowing, that the minds of humanity poured into the Warp. If all he needed was his own psyker powers then he could have just went to the Eye of Chaos and kicked the Chaos Gods in the ass. Well, maybe not Nurgle and Tzeentch as Nurgle embodies life and its decay while Tzeentch embodies change which is necessary for order.
That isn't how the Chaos Gods derive power though. And the Emperor, despite his power, is still bound to a mortal vessel.
Give me a little bit to find and download Collected Visions, which has the quote.
Any Grey Knight can do that provided he's not tired and he has enough energy left. Bloodthirsters are Khorne's babies and as I said Grey Knights OWN Chaos' ass.
That's not true at all.
In The Emperor's Gift, a full squad of Grey Knights fights the weakest tier of Bloodthirster, and a Grey Knight is ripped apart and nearly has his corpse eaten.
Punching a Bloodthirster to death within the Warp is an impossibly impressive feat, even for a Grey Knight. Particularly so if you consider fluff from Eye of Terror (the book), where Bloodthirsters in the Warp are big enough to accidentally destroy planets by flying through them.

Ingethel says similarly to... I think it was Lorgar? Maybe Argel Tal. Or it might have been Erebus who said it.

No gods no primarchs no emperor. Just based on skill with a hand weapon no supernatural abilities either.

Well if that were the case the following guys are the ones in the running:
Kharn (he's awesome), Mephiston (even without psyker powers he's badass), Ghazgull, or that giant squiggoth.

Mephiston has the physical might of a Daemon Prince, which is what enables him to achieve feats like ripping Carnifexes to pieces. What opponents above his level has he defeated with nothing more than skill of arms?
Dante on the other hand has killed Skarbrand.

We're talking about a battle the Wolves won, by isolating the enemy general through pack tactics, and threatening to kill him, without a hope of defending himself. It was a balance, 50/50 - Angron overpowered Russ, and the Wolves were losing ground to the World Eaters; but Russ and his warriors had Angron by the balls, and barely broke a sweat.

How do you know? Of course there were other Grey Knights there. It was a battle after all. Draigo and Geronitan didn't just take a Strike Cruiser for a spin to go and confront a Daemon Primarch with no back-up.
Other Grey Knights were present, but it was made clear that they didn't help Draigo against Mortarion, while it was made clear that those present did aid in the banishing of Angron.
