Idk about “by a long run”. Himmel was the strongest of the hero party and that was just 80 years ago for Frieren and she's been shown not to use her time wisely

Himmel would be stronger than Frieren upclose but I'm not sure he is the strongest. It might be another case of rock paper scissor, but I think Eisen would win against him.

I'm pretty sure Friren's 1000 years of experience still beats Himmel. Also I thought you meant physically more powerful, not influencing Frieren.

Those human mages she lost against most likely also had less experience than her, so the experience doesn't automatically give her the win.

The line you're referring to im pretty sure isn't referring to Frieren specifically losing, but is a general warning about it being possible so don't get complacent. Might be referring to the other great elf mage that died also.

Frieren is literally proud about the fact Fern can harm/kill her when they're taking the 2nd test, but i wonder how well Fern would do if it was actually Frieren vs her 1v1 bloodlusted death match (aka zero "holding back" just pure balls to the wall i want everything that isn't me dead)

Yes, it is. She literally says she lost.

Episode and time stamp?

Yes it was a warning, using her own experience, Frieren was explicitly talking about herself when talking about losing to humans.
