@StanLemon @Tglassy With regard to a Street alley fight, I don’t think that a mistborn will be as at great an advantage at all against a windrunner.
While an open field certainly helps a windrunner where he has full and open access to the sky, in closed quarters also, please remember the prologue where szeth killed Gavilar. He was actually able to use the surge of gravity so much better in an enclosed space, keep changing the direction of gravity for yourself or other and you have them so much confused they can not even think straight! Whereas a mistborn can only merely push and pull.
I disagree. Szeth has years of experience with windrunner surges when he first met kaladin whereas Kaladin was so new to his powers back then! But now, I am sure if they were to spar again, szeth will not win against kaladin.
Besides, there is a difference between being trained in surges and being an assassin to being a soldier ! Kaladin has a lifetime in army, he is a true soldier. He has the discipline, training, battle experience to defeat anyone in a fight!
