User blog comment:Leolab/DFWiki Anniversary battle: Dalinar vs Marsh/@comment-3189283-20120722200915

I will have to go with Marsh in this battle. Dalinir loses out big time on the weaponry and when it comes to his special Marsh's hemalurgy is far more versatile. Marsh can pull and push dalinir around with steel and iron, cloud his judgement with zinc, use atium to predict and counter near any attack dalnir tries and do multiple other things to prevent Dalinir from mounting any sort of impressive offence. His superior experiance will also help him out as he has been alive for a lot longer than Dalinir and thus has learnt more tactics and will be used to a wide variety of combat styles, weapons and opponents which will allow him to understand and counter the fighting style than Dalinir brings to the table far better than dalinir will be able to counter his fighting style.
