A. What great duels? The fight with SF Malak is gameplay. We don't know what happened.B. What other Sith did Bane learn from? Only notable knowledgable Sith he learned from was Revan. If he had been studying Exar Kun and Nihilus and all the other big names before him, then it be more impressive.
n)Gameplay yet malak is described as nearly unstoppable in the databank where is the part from it
The Sith Lord had grotesquely adapted the Rakatan device to draw energy directly from chained Jedi captives. He replenished his life force from the captives by draining theirs. Malak was nearly unstoppable,
Meaning he replenished his life force meaning that Revan had to nearly kill him multiple times otherwise there would be no need to replenish your life force if you are not weakened.Not to mention Basitlla replenished her own life force 4 times before that and i dout revan could take an hour to rest in the star forge to gain more strenght.
Yet we still have Bane ranked in the top sith (around 5/6 but that is a matter of opinio Bane also learned from Kopecz,Qordis and the Kaism. Bane said revan's holocron DS has the quote which i will repost for you.

"To Bane it seemed the teachings contained within the single Holocron surpassed those of the Academy's entire archives. Revan had discovered MANY of the rituals of the ancient sith, and as the holocron's avatar explained their nature and purpose, Bane could barely wrap his mind around their awesome potential. Some of the rituals were so terrible, so dangerous to attempt, even for a true sith master, he doubted he would ever dare to use them.
How many sith lords do you that could rival the archives of the sith academy? Thousands of years have passed meaning revan knew more in his life time than the new sith would learn while they regrouped themselves. The only sith (excluding the ancients) that i would say that could rival revan in force knowledge is Kun,Caedus and Sidious. Revan would make a great teacher to learn from with this type of knowledge. And Nihilus has the on technique to his name that is extra ordinary to his name(other than tk which everyone has to some degree) and i doubt his type of drain is something you can teach to an apprentice.
But can you tell me how he did this? What he did?
How did this because of his brilliant military genius Canderous describes it the best seeing as how he was on the opposite side of the war.
"If Revan had been a Mandalorian, nothing in the galaxy would have stopped us."
"Only Revan was worthy of our respect. We swept throughout the Outer Rim without opposition—until Revan assumed command of the Republic forces. Only then did the battle turn."
"Revan embodied our philosophy, and showed us our own weaknesses"
"At the start, they were not much of a threat to speak of, but once the Jedi Revan had taken charge, things began to turn against us. The Republic fleets began to use more than just basic tactics. Feints, counterattacks, mass deceptions. Revan was a genius on the field. Revan abandoned worlds of their defenders so that others would be too fortified to strike, and was willing to make sacrifices in order to advance goals. And in the end, Revan proved too much for us."
"It was by the actions of one person, the Jedi Revan, that you prevailed."
"Revan's strategies and tactics defeated the best of us. Even Mandalore himself was taken aback by the ferocity of his attacks, the tenacity of his defenses and the subtlety of his plans. Revan fought us to a standstill and then began pushing back. We didn't really have a chance."
Still think Revan is not a great teacher?
