Good to know Windrunner, that would make the playing field more even between all of the contestants.

I was thinking all out pit brawl style, with naitive environment, small buildings, cover concealment in large (2-3 city block radius) area. I didn't think Wax would stand much of a chance against Kel, but with firearms and steel pushing I think he could shatter Dalinar easily. Szeth Kel would be one hell of a crazy fight scene. I didnt want Kaladin As the fourth for a few reasons ( not a full potential yet, three from Roshar etc). I almost put Vashar in but I thought he might be a bit too powerful.

**Slight Spoiler aheaThis post has been reported for attempting to skirt the rules Thunder Dome challange, place your bets. Who is the last man standing? No alliances, no mercy. Enter the contestants: Dalinar "The Blackthorn" Kholin- Full Shardplate and Blade, master of fighting Blade fighting and the most feared Warlord in all of Alethi. Szeth "Assassin in White" son-son-Vallano Master Windrunner, Mass Murderer, and holder of a deadly Shardblade, with the ability to change gravity at a whim he has the best mobility in the game. Kelsier "The Survivor of Hathsin" Deadly Allomancer, with pin point control over all types of metal, a tactical mastermind who orchestrated the downfall of a 1000 year rule of the Tyrannical Lord Ruler. Waxillium "Wax" Ladrian High Lord of House Ladrian, powerful Twinborn with the ability to manipulate his own wieght at will and to Steelpush on all metal he is a deadly man. When combined with his sharpshooting aluminum pistols and haze killer rounds he is someone to be feared and respected. Four Men Enter, One Man Leaves!

Slightly OT here, but I did not want to start a separate thread for such a small theory ( which someone here who pays more attention will most Likely dis prove anyway). This statement is more or less why I think Szeth will fail in his attempt to kill Dalinar. I feel like Szeth will be arriving at the Shattered Plains the same time as Shallan and Jasnah, who have figured out the void bringer connection. I think the Szeth will find/over hear this information and therefore be compeled to return to Shinovar to inform his people of the True Desolation and the Voidbringer threat.

Just a quick observation, before the Heralds abandoned the Oathpact there were no Spren (splinters) after there. Perhaps it is was not Odium that killed Honor, but the shattering of the ten most important Oaths that Honor had ever bound humans to? Well, nine I suppose Taln still held true though not of his own volition, he had no choice as the only one who died. Anyone with more experiance in Theroycrafting want to have a crack at this?

On the topic of Szeth's blade not being a normal Shardblade I feel like it is important to note that it is mentioned that he cannot give up his Blade. Even if ordered by the holder of his Oathstone, I believe he (Szeth, in his own mind) states that if the holder of his Oathstone orders him to relinquish his blade he would be forced to kill him. I don not have. Page reference right now, posted from my phone. Off topic: First post on these forums!
