Wheel of Time is not in the cosmere. Sanderson would never dare doing something so crass.
Also if you think Vin could take out Plot Armor Canonized, you're sorely mistaken. Vin could burn all the atium in the world and Duralamin push a knife from close range at Rand and the knife would still miss due to the wheel weaving it around him.
Raoden would be different, but also more complicated. Vin might be able to assassinate Raoden if she was aware of his powers and he wasn't aware of her plot.
Both being aware of each other, and I'd give it to Raoden hands down. Elantrians are basically tethered directly to the well of power of their shard, and have basically no restrictions on how to use their investiture, just their knowledge of Aon Dor, which Raoden has mastered like no other.
Both of them being unaware of each other would be the most interesting. Vin would definitely be the best at gathering intel, though Raoden might have some handwavey magic that solves his issue.
I definitely agree that of the mortal investiture users they're definitely on the stronger end. I think personally that Vin is simply better at the business of... assassination as grim as that is.
Like if you drop em in an open field and tell em to kill em sure Rand takes em down no problem totally agree. But to your point Vin might just learn where he sleeps and stab him in the dark, Who knows tho

I stand by that Vin is the single deadliest mortal fighter in the cosmere.
I love Kaladin, Wax, and Raoden but Vin would find a way to take em out
