Force: Starkiller
All Out: Starkiller. Unless maybe if Bane had prep. Bane is a lot smarter than Galen, so he is capable of finding a way to defeat Galen.
All out, he was able to defeat Kas'im even before he had the Orbalisks. With it, he took on Raskta Lsu, a far better swordsbeing than Starkiller- as Gideon would say: Miles and Miles and MILES better. Bane is firmly above what (admittedly little) I have seen from Starkiller.
Starkiller has used the force on a far more extreme level than Bane. What has Bane done with TK that compare to Starkiller redirecting a free falling star destroyer, force throwing a tie fighter, slamming two heavy pillars on Vader, force throwing several stormtroopers with ease, bringing down AT-AT walkers, or rag dolling Sidious.
Starkiller's lightning was also pretty impressive.
I like how there's a Force and All-Out, but no sabers. If there were sabers, it goes to Bane. And I just don't see Marek winning. BAne without Orbalisks may be defeated by him, but Christ, with them? Didn't they deflect like a million volts of Force Lightning? Such protection coupled with Bane's more than exceptional command of the Force gives him a win. Same with an All-Out.
The Starkiller threads are getting a tad tiresome.

Bane's Orbalisks more than make up for 'I moved a star destroyer' Marek. Bane has some of the most powerful TK ever, and he is adept at using it in combat (see the Wave he sent at Farfalla/Raskta Lsu or against the Umbaran Shadow assassins. I really don't want Marek to be better than Bane.

He didn't take Kas'im in pure blades. Coupled with his power in the force, he knew all of Kas'im's double bladed sequence. As for Raskta...without the Orbalisks? She was better. Without them, she would have given him numerous fatal wounds.
In the Force, Starkiller's lightning might be Bane's worst nightmare

It's a swell thing then that Bane's an idiot. An idiot with half his organic body replaced with prosthetics. Cuz hell, if Vader of all the quick-witted acrobats in Star Wars, can't dodge or catch objects, then what chance has Bane got?
You are missing the point. Starkiller is superior to Bane in the force. You're basically saying Bane will just dodge all of Starkiller's force attacks. In that case you can just make a reasonable force duel between Sidious and Ahsoka, and say Ahsoka can dodge all Sidious's force attacks, since she is fast and all.
What i was getting at is Vader probably has a stronger command of the force than Bane, and maybe stronger force defenses, but was still eventually overpowered by Starkiller's TK attacks.
