ESB Luke vs. Darth Bandon

Both combatants are given little regard on this forum (well, Luke at this point is given littlt regard)

All-out fight in the chamber Luke fought Vader.

Who wins?

Bandon. Luke was already a natural, even at that point, but Bandon with all his lameness is too much.

I think Bandon may win.

Bandon has a strong chance of winning here. Luke at this point has had hardly enough training to contend with Bandon.

I am with Bandon. Luke as hardly a regular jedi knight at this time.

Luke was not a good jedi during this period, Bandon kills him.

If I remember correctly from one of the other Bandon threads, doesn't the databank say that Bandon is powerful? More than can be said for ESB Luke. While his power increased at an incredible rate, he is still mediocore at best, and maybe not even that. So yes, Bandon wins for sure, but not to easily, Luke likely puts up a decent fight I'd say.

Luke would not stand a chance.

Sure, he did manage to penetrate Vader's defence, but I am guessing that Vader lost much of his ability after losing to Obi-wan.

Or simply threw the fight to his son. Luke wasn't exactly winning through sheer skill with his swing-batta-batta Form style, nor was he overpowering Vader who can pick grown men up with one hand.

In ESB Vader didn't throw the fight, he was more concerned with turning Luke, so he was toying with him. The same cannot be said for ROTJ though.

So you're saying in ROTJ Luke was already a better swordsman than Vader? (just asking, not attacking)

I'm going with Bandon. Luke is mediocre at this point.

Well, Luke certainly beat Vader in ROTJ.

If he was holding back, then this shows weakness on his part.

Vader was supposed to be a Sith, and once he found that he could not defend himself, he should have tried to end the fight.

Perhaps he did try. If he did not, then he is mentally flawed, and still loses.

I am not concerned with who is the best technically - I am concerned about what happened in practice.

Luke dies. Miserably.
