The difference in how power is accessed through the different systems makes things complicated…but assuming the Allomancres/Feruchemists had large-ish supplies of 'fuel'…how would it go?

I pick out of the characters I know and I picked Vin because Vin could most likely beet Marsh and Vin is MUCH more powerful then Kell.

Rand. It's easily Rand. I immediately disqualified the Dark One because he isn't mortal. So, after that Rand easily beats any of the other choices. As someone once put it on here "No other character has such devastating earth-shattering power". I'm assuming it's a "no holds barred" type of scuffle and in that case Rand picks up Callandor and lays waste to whomever he is fighting and anything else within 20 square miles. Fight over.

I agree with Rand being up there as a bad thing. He is easily more powerful than all the others, Dark One aside, who I also discount due to the fact that he's almost a god (power-wise). Rand would most likely, as others have put it better than I, lay waste to everyone before they really even had a chance to do anything.

Well, what if this is Sazed after the end of MB3?

Rand is kind of destroying everyone on the charts.…

rand is probably the most powerful (non god-like) entity on the list. The mistborn/pre-ascension sazed etc. are powerful, but rand (and possibly any WOT channeler) could beat them mostly because they have more and varied offensive and defensive powers, since they can do pretty much anything with the one power.

The dark one and post ascension sazed are unfair to compare against the rest.

(also, rand technically beats the DO by default, as his purpose of existance is to defeat him, so I think rand will win in a fight against him, and we will see :P )

Yup. Wheel of time main character. The most probable reason most votes are for him is because, as written, channeling from WoT is signifigantly more powerful on its own than any of the systems from mistborn.

For example, Rand could easily lay waste with barely a thought to a literal army of non-channelers, whereas the characters from mistborn would have to fight individually every single enemy, and would likely get overwhelmed quickly.

All this talk about who would win, I finally did a search for Mistborn fanfiction. Now that I've discovered there is Mistborn/Naruto crossover fanfiction, though, I think I'll stop looking for now.
