You just blew my mind saying the Gandalf/balrog battle being more of an ending chapter of the war of wrath. Been reading Tolkien almost exclusively for a while now and never really thought of that. Almost embarrassed I missed that

As to would he have shown/given the balrog all he had? Absolutely he would have. I think the gloves were off for that fight so to speak. I seem to remember thinking that he wasn’t so much killed by the balrog as he was killed from the exhaustion of the battle. But I don’t really remember. I suppose I should read The White Rider chapter from the two towers again.
