I'd side with team two, Galen's the MVP with his Shaak level dueling and noticeably greater Force power than anyone else in this fight.

Savage beating Plo and Ventress being his approximate equal or contending with Anakin/Obi-Wan is above Shaak driving back a Galen not long after his struggle with the Darth Desolous simulacrum, and obviously better than Galen himself. I know you said we're not counting Dark Disciple, but Ventress drives Dooku back in that, IIRC.
The only way team 1 could win is through Force abuse to get rid of Ventress, but she's quite resilient and quite powerful in her own right.
Savage "beat" plo just like tpm kenobi "beat" maul or how cade skywalker "beat" darth krayt. Getting your leg cut in one move by plo koon isn't remotely impressive
And taking the duo in season 3 is nice and all(even though it also featured crap ventress ragdolling the crap out of her superiors in anakin and kenobi) but given how a supposedly superior version of oppress was outclassed by koon, stomped by maul and then was quickly dispatched by kenobi with his vast superior in maul helping him, I don't think we should take what he(or ventress) did in that single season 3 arc too seriorusly
No, it seems like I've sufficiently attracted a reaction, albeit not the explosive overreaction I was expecting from you. Ah, well. Maybe next time.
To sate your curiosity, though, I'm seriously unimpressed with Galen in sabers, especially early-game. Even on the dark side nexus of the Jedi Temple Ruins, Galen "need[ed] all of [his] skill to survive" against a mere simulacrum of Darth Desolous, which may or may not have enjoyed the same amp. The fact that he's given pause by the likes of Maris Brood and Shadow Guards even after the Felucia incident (when he was supposed to grow drastically) isn't aiding my impression of him either.
But I ask that you grant me clemency and avoid turning this into a debate, thank you very much.
