Rand can’t win. His author died of tedious hand cramping, writing endlessly about the color of the hem of dresses and the texture of the paint flakes drying on a building (which is also tediously detailed). But the time Rand gets through his ‘clothing details’ he’ll already be dead. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Oh, and Doubledorf is a old turd.

And that, my friends, is how this tale ends. But now Kvothe is off to battle the perhaps unstoppable Jaime Lannister. As @frantiforce said: Kingslayer versus Kingkiller! Check out our recap of the round here: http://bit.ly/9x9dFi And check out Kvothe versus Jaime here: http://bit.ly/c5VWxg

You seem like an ok, reasonably intelligent chap. Why are we having an internet fight? I didn’t mean to make false statements about Kvothe alright?
All I was saying was that characters as powerful and intelligent as Kvothe and Dumbledore (and we know that much about them at least) would take every precaution before going into a fight with one another, and therefore would be suitably able to defend themselves against magic one way or another.
Dumbledore has access to an almost unlimited number of magical artifacts through the collection at Hogwarts, and that room that gives you whatever you need. Kvothe has proven time and time again that there is no situation he cant overcome given 2 minutes to think about it, be it gaining access to a magic blocking amulet from another world, or using the technique described by Liam up there.
To me, this means that after a good few hours of blasting each other with magic, its eventually going to come down to who is better at hand to hand combat. And we KNOW that Kvothe is good with a sword, and we KNOW that Dumby is getting on in his years a bit.
Sure theres alot of assumptions etc there, but bear in mind we’re talking about a fictional tournament with characters from other worlds here, we need to use our own opinions, and assume things about the story, otherwise we’ll get nowhere, and it really will be just a popularity contest.
So, in conclusion, I apologise, it was not my intention to speak bullsh!t about Kvothe or Dumbledore, I was simply trying to offer an opinion.

I sincerely hope that, when the time comes, everyone gets behind Rands opponent, no matter who it is. I’m tired of fanboys whining ‘balefire! balefire!’
