Who got the best out of Ti Lung? Chang Cheh or Chor Yuen?

I have a feeling most people will say Chor Yuen cause Ti Lung always played second fiddle to David under Chang Cheh. 

But can anything under Yuen beat his performance in "The Blood Brothers"?

I personally get bored pretty fast of him just playing "righteous sword hero" in those Chor Yuen films. Granted, there are some nuance to some of them beyond just that. But merely thinking about them as a whole, they mostly blend together in my mind and that is the image I'm left with.

Not so with his roles for Cheh. Yes, he was sometimes sidelined for Dave to shine, though they also got equal opportunity in movies like , Have Sword, Will Travel, The Duel, Duel of Fists, Anonymous Heroes, Deadly Duo etc. And as far as roles designed for him to do his thing, I'd say Dead End, King Eagle, Delightful Forest and yes, Blood Brothers are good examples.
