      This is one of them because for the first time the reader and Rand see`s he deserves to carry the blade....Mat blowing the horn at Falme is another but in the early books his fight with Gawyn and Galad is probably my most favourite...

      TBH it always seemed a bit off to me that Rand could beat Turak in a swordfight. I liked the 'power move' the show put in instead. Especially since Turak is essentially just in his way while he tries to get to Egwene.

      @@jelledevries8904 You actually liked that stupid ass scene in the show? The book duel is way better. And unlike in the show, Rand actually trained with Lan for a good amount between books 1&2, plus he should have inherent knowledge and talent from Lews Therin, so it does make sense that he could beat Turak, who was a blademaster, but an aging and weaker one.

      It's Rand starting to come into his own. His character growth in The Great Hunt is amazing. He becomes a leader amd on this fight shows his prowess.
      It doesn't hurt that it was incredibly well written and paced.

    • @thomascain7587

      Because he becomes a blademaster, and before his father's sword is destroyed by Ishamael above Falme, Rand finally earns the sword on his own merit.

    Excellent selection! tbh tho, I think the music is many times more loud than it should be (if present at all), the music is almost as loud as portions of the speech and overrides the emotion of the text at inappropriate moments (such Mat slashing the man and him wasting away while screaming, it feels glossed over with the unresponsive music)
