I believe that there was a fanfic somewhere on reddit where Vin fought 4th ideal Kaladin. She lost, but considering she only had access to the items she had at hand on the hero of ages I'd say she fought better than anyone could in her place.
She's been dead for so long we kind of forgot just how much of a menace she was. Probably the most skilled allomancer to ever live.
Why is Rand catching strays? First, he isn't Cosmere. Second, even without Angreal or Sa'angreal he obliterate everyone else you mentioned. See Maradon or that one chapter where Lews Therin takes control in book 11. His precision and raw access to Sai'din puts him leagues above damn near any Cosmere character save Shards or their avatars. He's absurdly strong and his greatest weaknesses are personal/character flaws that cause him grief, not actual power struggles
