If anyone has been following the
Suvudu Cage Match it's down to the final two putting Rand Al'Thor vs Jaime Lannister. I was really hoping that Kvothe beat out Jaime but he just couldn't quite do it.
George R. R. Martin proposed an interesting idea on
his blog. He said the fight should be "Trial of Seven" from Westeros Tradition, where the heroes will fight along side 6 of their pals each. He suggested he could take any six from his works and stories, and Rand be given a choice of 6 allies from the group of Jordan's
and Brandon's works. Kind of a fun idea.
That being said, which 6 would you pair up with Rand?
This would be my choice:
Sazed - Post HoA Sazed has to be a force to reckon with IMO
Vin - If she can be the same as the last time we saw her (end of HoA) then she could probably almost do this fight herself
Lord Ruler - This guy didn't survive so long because he was easy to kill
Vasher - With his collect of Breath's and his sword of course
Alcatraz - Chances are GRRM's picks would rely on a couple 'unbreakable' magical artifacts.
Matt - Can't lose with the dark one's own luck
I had a couple that almost made my list. They were:
Lews Therin - Might as well have him and Rand. All Rand's abilities and potential but he knows how to use 'em
Lightsong - I really don't think this fight would be in the bag and all 6 wouldn't be needed, might as well bring along some comic relief to make the fight more fun to watch.
I know people on the forum like this kind of thing, so who would you pick?
