"So the oldest brother, who was a combative man, asked for a
wand...that must always win duels for its owner: a wand worthy of a
wizard who had conquered Death!'
So with that, all the other comments I've already included, plus
those thoughts and ideas within DH, we are still given the
impression that anyone with the wand cannot be beaten.

Lynda:

That's from a wizarding fairy tale--a story told children to teach a lesson
or a moral and to entertain, but fairy tales are just that--fictional
stories.  So, unless I'm also going to believe that the invisibility cloak
really belonged to Death at one time and the Ressurection stone as well, why
would I believe that the Elder Wand would always win a duel for its current
owner rather than transfering its allegience when its owner was bested by
another wizard?
