Also, the differences between each tier get progressively more massive the higher you get. So Vader hitting tier 10 repeatedly is far beyond anything ROTS Sidious has to claim. The only argument is how much did Sheev really grow afterwards.
For all the arguments against Knightfall Vader, I've still yet to see anything beyond Mastery of the Force arguments. Which are neither genuine in terms of accolades nor really relevant.
Knightfall Vader is still the GOAT.

Yeah, the early version was only 7 tiers, with 8 being a "cheat" tier.
The latest I believe was in fact 9 tiers, and NG later stated that Anakin was pretty much a 10, or at least tapping in the realm of 10.

He based it off numbers given to him by Lucas. They agreed on that tier system.

That's genuinely pathetic. Gillard got his own rankings by consulting Lucas and spent time on the fvcking game getting every single character down to level based straight off of the script before the film itself.

"How does one quantify fighting prowess, and does such a quantity have any practical value? When Stunt Coordinator and Sword Master Nick Gillard sets down to script a lightsaber duel, he needs to have some guage as to how competent the combatants are. On equal-footing, such ranking could easily determine the victor."
It has little to do with stunts. It's perfect for something like forum debates.
