Hard, paineful stop at 3.

I don't know, far inferior Force users can throw Vader 10-15 meters. He's pretty sad.

Vader being faster than Mace, Soara, Kenobi, Anakin, etc

Impresses me more than raindrops. Considering this was Vader before his prime, I think ROtJ Vader is infinitely superior to the iteration of him that received the aforementioned accolade.

So yeah, Vader.

Did Sora **** Soa?

LOL if joker says wasn't Vader conflicted imma be pissed AF because how he down played Ferus kicking Vader's ass

Obviously emotionally conflicted tho. True... We should also not ignore that Vader could have ragdoll stomped Ahsoka on a whim. He just didn't feel like it.

So yeah, Bane could very well end there.

loses all other than Scourge and Marr

Kek at Bane beating Dooku.

4.

Likely down at 3, definitely down at 4.

The order of this thread is an actual disease.

Freedon Nadd is immensely more powerful than Dooku, and it's Force powers that matter more against orbalisk-encased Bane, not to mention Nadd wields orbalisk armor himself, but I know that one is controversial.

RotJ Vader and Exar Kun is controversial either. You can easily toss it up every day.

Marr above Malgus may be controversial, yeah, since Marr is supposedly superior to Malgus, but only to an iteration before FE. On the other hand, Marr is supposed to be superior to Malgus just a year before False Emperor, multiple years after Deceived... So I think they are even at worst.


I may have messed up 12 and 13, if one considers RotS Palpatine superior to both Plagueis and Krayt, but I think different.

If it goes for 14... yeah, okay, it may be messed up somewhat.

- DE Palpatine > Darth Plagueis, very clearly
- Karness Muur < Krayt, but only barely
- Naga Sadow & Ajunta Pall < LotF Jacen Solo, pretty clearly

If you think DE Palpatine isn't as much above Plagueis, as Jacen is above Naga and Ajunta, then you may be right. That round is messed up, I can admit that, but it's far from "cancer" lol

Bane is a hypersonic fighter so he clears easily. But I'll use the interpretation of Bane best accepted by Gideon's Establishment:

Loses. Dooku has infinitely better saber feats and accolades and enough speed and strength in the Force to make it a duel (he ragdolls Obi Wan, lifts giant pillars, etc.)

Bane routinely struggles with random mook enemies in RoT/DoE; Dooku while drugged disarms three nightsisters with a gesture, clowns Obi Wan, Force lightnings Anakin Skywalker, etc. Only issue is his orbalisk armor, but Dooku can disarm him and then it's just a matter of putting his saber through his skull.



No idea TBH. Vitiate feared him so Bane probably loses.



Gets destroyed and crushed through his armor. 80% of Palpatine and his feats in TFU >>>>>>>>>>>> anything Bane has ever done. Look at how pre-prime Vader handles seven Jedi ambushing him and compare it to Bane struggling against eight shadow assassins or random mercenaries.



Probably loses. Kun has better saber and Force feats and was a threat to post-DE Luke.



Bane dies within 15 seconds.



Not sure TBH.



Caedus by Invincible explicitly > Vader, and can contend with Luke as a swordsman.



Malgus flattens him.



Loses, but why is this so high...
