Kas'im and Mace Windu run the Gauntlet:

They get enough rest between each fight to at least be prepared for the next one. Assume for each match, it comes to sabers or mele

1. Four Magnaguards and General Grievous

2. Galen Marek and ROTS Anakin Skywalker

3. Ulic Qel-Droma and Darth Malak

4. Exar Kun and Darth Tyrannus.

5. Rule of Two Darth Bane and Raskta Lsu

6. Marka Ragnos, Ludo Kressh and Naga Sadow.

7. They make it.

I'd call it at about 5.

Interestingly, Kas'im vs. Mace was my next idea for a fight. It's Interesting that you'd pre-empt me. On second thought, maybe I'll still make it.

I think they would be defeated at 4.

5, I believe could be a tossup. Kas'im would probably be capable of killing Raskta, as would Mace, whereas Mace could be formidable enough to engage bane on his own. Bane's advantages of a curved hilt saber and familiarity with dueling forms would be rendered void against Mace.

And make that thread!

i think they lose at 5. Raskta would take kas'im IMO. Bane and mace would be a long duel, with possibly a slight edge to bane, so if Raskta DOES beat kas'im, and moves against Mace while he's still fighting bane, then mace is screwed.

Kas'im's recognized at better than Raskta, TJ. It is noted he was the best swordsman of the time.

my bad, didn't know that was in there. been quite awhile since i read POD. I still think they lose at 5 though. If bane has his orbalisks, he's probably going to beat Mace.

They would lose at 5, if not 4.

Well, TJ, if Kas'im kills Raskta, it's quite possible a combined assault will bring Bane down

Yeah, that is true.

btw, this is irrelevant, but, is anyone going to post on my quigon vs obi-wan thread, cause i really want to hear your opinions.

possible. I just don't think so. Does the quote you referred to earlier talk about HOW much better Kas'im was than Raskta?

But if they do get it done, they still die at 6.

They clear this gauntlet. The major threats are at four and five. Either member of the team could outduel either Dooku or Kun at four, and at five I see Bane's orbalisks being a bit of an issue, but either Mace or Kas'im can take out Raskta in a respectable amount of time (since she doesn't have BM to back her up) and then double-team Bane.

Mace and Kas'im together? Bane is going down HARD. All we know is Kas'im was the better and very likely Mace as well.

6...to be honest, in a blade match, I wouldn't put it past either Mace or Kas'im to handle Ludo and Naga at the same time

I'd be willing to bet that Kas'im could take all three members of Six on at the same time and still win.

I wish I could disagree with you.

ROT Bane would own Kas'im; unless his lightsaber skills have degenerated (they didn't), his Force powers diminished (they haven't), and he magically lost the orbalisk armor (he doesn't), he smashes his former master into the ground. Considering the type of man Bane is, I highly doubt he'd let a weakness as prominent as susceptibility to Jar'Kai persist.

Good thing the two preeminent Sith Lords of their era could obliterate either with the Force.

If they somehow slide past 4, they get their asses handed to them at 5.

Could you humor me and post reasons why? Because, in all seriousness, I don't see it.

Because if they obliterate Mace, I'm thinking that Yoda or Sidious could annihilate them effortlessly.

They either lose at 5 or they clear it, and number 5 and number 6 should be switched. The three ancient sith suck.

Faunus, OP says that the matches come down to saber or melee. No offensive Force powers, I would guess.

😄

Own is a bit of a strong term. Raskta was able to at least hold her own there and while Bane has improved, KAs'im with Jar'kai was substantially better than him ten years prior.
Of course, it could always go as Mace against Bane while Kas'im does away with Raskta

Don't forget: for all intents and purposes, these are saber battles
