Who has better sidekicks: Sam or Samwell Tarly?

Both Sam and Samwell Tarly from Game of Thrones have loyal and helpful sidekicks. Sam has Gilly, a Wildling girl who he met beyond the Wall and eventually fell in love with. Gilly helps Sam in his studies at the Citadel, and they both raise a child together. On the other hand, Samwell Tarly has his best friend Jon Snow, who helps him to overcome his fear and become a brave warrior. Jon and Sam also share a deep bond of friendship and brotherhood.

However, if we were to choose who has better sidekicks, it would be Samwell Tarly. Jon Snow is not just a sidekick, but also a mentor, a friend, and a brother to Samwell Tarly. Jon helps Sam in every step of his journey and supports him when he needs it the most. Furthermore, Jon is also a strong and powerful warrior, which adds an extra layer of protection to Samwell Tarly.

So, while both Sam and Samwell Tarly have great sidekicks, it's safe to say that Samwell Tarly's relationship with Jon Snow is more complex, deep, and beneficial.
