” actually lord turaks so’jihn was present when rand killed him ”
and then committed suicide yay
besides who cares how he’s called. You think that his abilities to fight are smaller just because he’s no Blademaster?
PS: Go, Rand go, kill Conan, Go, Rand go

****SPOILER****
At the end of book 12, Rand becomes one with Lews Therin “they were never two people”… So he doesn’t have the voice-in-the-head control issues anymore. Agreeing with the previous commenter – if you’re giving him the voice in the head, he should also still have Choden Kal… though then the matchups would be over, since the Choden Kal is powerful enough to destroy reality and unravel time itself… he could have cracked the earth into a million pieces with a single thought – he was able to sense every beating heart on the planet and knew he could stop each one with one stretch of his mind.
With Choden Kal, Rand still may die, but so would whatever else that exists.

possible spoilers ahead:
“Mentally and emotionally unstable—a voice in his head occasionally takes control over him”
if you keep that please allow the choedan kal instead of callandor as its obviously pre veins of gold

Don’t forget about the fact that Rand is quiet possibly the most powerful Ta’veren to ever live. Chance will bend in a way to benefit the Dragon Reborn even when he may be outmatched (which is usually never, btw).

Bale fire for the win

Umm, from what I can tell, Rand = Lews Therin. They are the same person, as of book 12. So now he remembers everything and would probably win. His issues have been mostly resolved by now.

Just my 2 cents but didn’t Lan his trainer in WoT tell Rand he was a blademaster? I’m pretty positive he said, whether it was witnessed or not, he earned the title of blademaster. Again, whether or not he or anyone else for that matter agrees. Plain and simple.. Just give the lunatic a sword and see what he does with it. He is a TOP swordsman, channeler, and not to mention has the memories, paranoia, and extreme emotional management issues capable of levelling the entire universe.. Sorry, but I don’t even see the Creator himself standing up to Rand al’Thor.. Even if he/she WANTED to… I love Locke, but nothing can withstand that by themselves. Like taking on an entire nation by yourself… Jeez.. Sorry, but it’s Rand all the way.

Rand would win this fight and (should) win any other fight hands down. Personally i do not see why people think he is stupid. He is anything but. He was raised as a shepherd, but by a brilliant man. Plus he has years of experience fighting wars, and you cant fight and win wars with a stupid general. Plus he also has the kinda kill all technique Balefire. Anything it touches no longer exist before it was touched by the Balefire… A conundrum yes but a hands down fight winner
