User blog:Leolab/Vin vs Jon Snow

For the first battle in my new tourney, we have Vin, a young Mistborn from Luthadel (that place sees a lot of my battles, doesn’t it?), the protégée of Kelsier and the one who assassinated Siegfried in the final sim of my last tourney; versus John Snow, the bastard son of Ned Stark and the 998th Commander of the Night’s Watch.

So, for the first time, I’m giving edges to weapons, in the style of my match predictions posted on Deadliest Warrior wiki.

Short range: Dagger wins. Steel is better than glass, even if Glass can’t be influenced by Allomancy. Edge: Jon Snow.

Mid Range: Koloss Sword wins. Anime-sized sword beats normal-sized one, especially since the wielder has Allomancy to enable her to swing it. Edge: Vin.

Long Range: Pushed Coin wins. Sure, the Bow and Arrow may be a good weapon, but how do you defend against a coin that has been Allomantically Pushed towards your head that you can barely see, unless you’re an Allomancer burning Steel or Iron? Snow is no Allomancer. Edge: Vin.

Special: Allomancy wins. Tin can be used for a physical edge as it enhances the senses, Pewter can be used for added strength, Steel and Iron are used to influence metals (such as swords and daggers), Zinc and Brass can influence Jon Snow’s mind, and Atium gives near-godlike powers for a very limited time. Ghost is fearsome, but he’s just another body on the floor. Edge, Vin.

So…

Who. Is. Deadliest? Vin Jon Snow
