What, you think he overpowered Bane? Bane would have to be very powerful not only because he was the Sith'ari, but because he is, he was ment to destroy the Sith and rebuild them to be even stronger. He would have to be very strong if he was gooing to do that.....

I've got nothing against his power. In truth, if I had the power to rewrite Star Wars as I see fit, every successive generation of Sith and Jedi would get steadily weaker and weaker until we reach Anakin fulfilling the prophecy, but hey that's just me.
The problem I had was Karpy's writing style. Reading the novel, I felt that it was written purely to placate the fans who love lots of Force powers and lightsabers, and tediously baseline backstabbings and schemes. It all felt a bit forced and maladroit. Now compare the Bane novels to Cloak of Deception or the Revenge of the Sith novel... hmm mm! They're pure literary gold by comparison.

It has? I mean, i know Sidious has an almost certantty of victory, but he could be suprised to see the man who made his order. Maybe even respect him or something, because i think we can all agree Bane is no pushover.

Again. Shock and awe at the time travel factor, just isn't a factor.

Look, I know im losing this, but Sidious is NOT all powerful, or he wouldnt have been killed by a blaster shot in the back by Han, he ould have stopped it somehow. Bane obviously has a small chance of victory, in every vs thread both have a chance of victory. But i think we should wait for a more developed Bane character before we make any solid conclusions. Right now we have 3 books, and a comic i think. Another is coming out, and maybe more.

Sids isn't all powerful no one is all powerful in SW with the exception of one thing which is the force itself.BUT sids is second ONLY to Luke end of story.
the blaster shot didn't kill sidious at all it was the jedi cyborg friend of luke and all the jedi that whent before them that took sids out.
and lets say more is developed on bane to the point where he is uber awesome in the end Sids>bane ALWAYS its CANON now stop being a fanboy.

Dude, canon can change, anything can. If Lucas changes his mind and wants Bandon to be the strongest sith ever then it is. I just have NOT READ ANY MATERIAL THAT WOULD SUGGEST SIDIOUS IS LIKE THAT. I have only read the Bane books, but have been looking for some time, about a year, for stuff like what you are saying.

Ok then. Sidious kills Bane, but with considerable effort. Im ok with that dude, im just trying to see if there are some things i may be reminded of that would kill Sidious, but I got nothing.

Wait, so one of the most powerful sith lords in history, and the most powerful, Bane is killed with little effort? Every one knows that Bane is well versed in lightning, Sidious wont pull that on alot. Sidious cant use a wormhole on Bane, because then they would both die. It would take alot of effort dude, Sidious would always have a hard time killing him. No argument. And anyways i lost but there is the odd chance that Bane wins. Out of say, 100 fights, i would say Bane would win at least 1 through an odd mishap. But there would be effort, dude, lots of it.

DE Sidious will do Bane in. Not "easily", but it won't be challengiung enough for Palpatine to contemplate the possibility he may lose. Or break a sweat.
1/100, sure. But that's 99% odds stacked against him.

nope. Bane may be one of the greats but sids in all his power is just THAT much more powerful than Bane so is yoda and caedous and Luke and cade. Possibly ragnos as well but ragnos is my opinion.
Ragnos IS more powerful than Bane, at least in force lightning. But Yoda has a 50/50 chance with Bane, as both are like, uber jedi/sith. Caedus has practiacally nothing i am aware of that would give him the win, so can you state some combat feats? And Luke is a force god, he cant die except from old age because the ppl at lucasarts thought it would be great to make a guy that pwnz all and can destroy the galaxy when he perverted the jedi order. Ragnos covered an entire PLANET in his froce lightning from orbit. I heard it from a friend who reads a whole bunch of stuff and probably saw it in a comic/book.

What? Where is this Lightning covered planet coming from? The guy's got less sources on his feats and abilitites than Revan or the Exile.

YOur friend lied to you about ragnos the ONLY time you see him is when he is dead. he has NEVER been shown using lightning you know NOTHING about ragnos
Yoda is the most devastating foe the darkside has ever known. if you watch ep3 he beats sids in the lightsaber fight. but all this is for a different time
and i'm fairly sure I know how luke will die after reading OMEN. I highly doubt its of old age.
Ok, i did a while back but i can not think of any truly exceptional feats. Bane fought an echani jedi battlemaster, a jedi master, AND a jedi knight, to a standstill while they were empowered by a jedi masters years-of-perfecting battle meditation.
