So... Dalinar's going to be the champion. His own champion, not Kaladin.
But... Kaladin's younger.
He has Shardblade and Plate.
He might even be a better fighter.
And yes, I get that it would be better for his arc and mental health for him not to fight. And he just basically fought an entire war by himself, and seriously needs a break.
But... he's got such better chances that it bugs me.
