Who would win in a fight: Adonalsium, Calamity, or Alcatraz?

[Furamirionind]

This question is something I personally would like to ask Brandon, but I figured I should settle for posting a thread on it, as it wouldn't be a meaningful WoB...

Anyway, we don't know the extent of Calamity's powers all that much, but I think he might be the worst off in this as is a being whose powers typically manipulate the physical realm where they can only mildly hurt Adonalsium, and where Alcatraz has such an OP power. 

Adonalsium, again, we don't know the full extent of powers.  But has significant control over all that happens in all three realms.

Alcatraz's talent... breaks things. 

Spoiler

Going as far as to "break" the talents later in the series

Could he break Adonalsium's control over him and the three realms?

I want to say that Alcatraz would win as he would just "break" (shatter) Adonalsium, and would break Calamity's access to magic... but what do you think?

I love this kind of theoretical (nonsense) questions! =)
All right the three of them would never fight, but if they did it would definitly be devastating. For them and for everything around.

If we only look at the power level, I think, that Adonalsium would definitly make the run. But Alcatraz is around and that means:

I'd definitly vote for Alcatraz. His talent is so strange and the guy is so lucky, he would win every fight. No matter what opponent, he would win (and likely destroy everything around him without meaning to).

I've only read the first Alcatraz book (Sanderson writes pretty amazing stuff, even for kids - I loved it), but I imagine that it depends where they are fighting. Calamity is more or less a non-player, since he probably has the equivalent power of a shard, and just therefore loses to Adolnasium by default. So the real fight is Alcatraz v Adolnasium.

If they're in the cosmere, Adolnasium wins, because almost by definition Alcatraz's talent would come from investiture, which would come from Adolnasium. Big A can just shut down the magic and crush Alcratraz, no problem.

Outside of the cosmere... I really have no idea. But probably Alcatraz due to the above statements.

I was thinking along the lines of Alcatraz being in the Cosmere... But having the Talents as a separate entity from Adonalsium.  So Adonalsium would still have incredible power, but no power over Alcatraz's power. (however, would have power over Alcatraz as the shards can manipulate the 3 realms... And as the talent would probably reside in either the cognitive or spiritual realms, Adonalsium would have some power over it as well...)

Having it separate from Adolnasium would require another investiture source somewhere, which would make this a lot more interesting since Alcatraz would have a patron shard  But that's not important to the discussion.

I can definitely see Alcatraz winning, and somehow accidentally splitting the realms apart from each other in the process. Or something insane like that, who even knows? Maybe this is WoB worthy.
