I think this is the second build inspired by that video, I'm going to have to get around to watching the series...
Some parts of this build really shine while others pale a little bit. You do sell the character really well but when it comes to the gameplay section you start on a sour note....
"To be honest, this build is a bit gimped by its lack of crafting investment."
...and then compound it by talking about how the character is more reliant on a follower. Combining this with the half developed perk spread, level 25/unfinished skills (Block/4/5 light armor) gives the impression that you got frustrated/bored with the character half way through making it...
You do include MfD in your shouts list and I couldn't help notice when watching the video (again) and reading your other notes just how appropriate it really is. In the video he already knows he's won, his opponent has already been 'marked' and Bronn is basically just waiting for him to tire himself out by using his speed and lighter armor to stay out of the way...
It's this element that I think you should have really placed emphasis on in the build. Marking tougher opponents and then dancing around them until they get weak from chasing you, then cutting in and bringing them down effortlessly because of their weakened armor rating...
I think you should definitely continue to bulk it out, sometimes I read a build and I just really enjoy the concept and everything in your 'Why play a sellsword' section is completely true. Presentation wise I'd let the video continue to do some of the talking (maybe embed it properly rather than just providing the link, I can help you with that if you like) and perhaps find a really good pic for your title image rather than just a clip from the series, just something to tie it to Skyrim a little more...
