The courage of Eowyn inspired Merry to ignore the fear and help her. Merry's blow distracted and weakened the Witch King so that Eowyn could finish him off. Merry stopped the witch king from killing Eowyn. He stabbed the witch-king in the back. Yes Eowyn killed the witch king, but its like stealing a kill. Merry made it possible for the witch king to die. His blade broke the witch kings defensive power and weakening him, therefore giving him (in minecraft ways) 1/10 hearts. Example: in minecraft you get a zombie to one health and give it weakness and slowness, and your friend finishes it off. case closed. however merry's sword disentigrated after he stabbed the witch king so he would not have been able to kill the witch king after stabbing him in the knee. Also it was eowyn's kill since Merry was technically a man and eowyn was not. Merry was a hobbit and Glorifdle's prophecy said no man will kill him and the that meant the man gender of humans and credit should be give to both case closed Hobbits are men.
