would he be able to defeat the Vala with that ring?
Yes, he did, but he also would have if Frodo had failed 🙂 Elrond also says something like that in the book, I think... however the War of the Ring ends it would always be a disadvantage for the elves.
I dont think he would be able to... after all, where would he take the power from? He put his power into the ring in the Second Age, and now he would take it back out 😛 cant have grown so much in the meantime 😄 😛
The Ring only gives to him the dominion of the free peoples who also got some of his Rings of Power, and with the help of them he would enslave the rest.
