Darth Thanaton runs the PT gauntlet!

im sick of arguing other sith vs vitiate, so lez do a thanaton gauntlet. how far does he go, with full rests in between? setting is in the dark council chamber

1. Aotc obi wan
2. Kit Fisto
3. TPM Maul
4. ROTS Obi Wan
5. Count Dooku
6. ROTS anakin
7. master yoda

Thanaton is an overrated pussy. He stops at anywhere from 2 to 4.

im not sure about that. thanaton could kill a lenico gargantuan with his lightning, and was able to defeat exal kressh before his prime(admittedly in no small part due to his cunning.)

Yeah, but his getting his ass kicked by Darth Nox is quite damning.

Nox was enhanced by the power of 4/5 Sith Lords at the time as well as being prodigously powerful in his own right. Its more that Nox is a beast than Thanaton sucked.

i'd say darth nox is very powerful, considering he/she had 5 sith spirits bound to him/her. i can see thanaton getting decently far in this gauntlet. plus the beast that he kills hith his lightning is huge, and he does it before his prime.

I'd say he at least makes it to Kenobi.

AotC Kenobi can deflect Dooku's lightning without any difficulty. I'd imagine RotS Kenobi can resist Thanaton's long enough to dice him to bits.

And he doesn't last 20 seconds against Dooku.

Dookus lightning is shit though. You think Kenobi could deflect this:

7.00. Its cracking the ground with its power. Kenobi ain't taking that.

almost looks like it creates a maelstrom of pure energy, or is that kallig?

😉 A drugged Dooku disarmed three nightsisters with one hand.

LOL, it takes him several seconds to charge it up.

i have an honest question: has dooku ever killed someone with lightning? im not trying to argue that thanaton is superior, but i dont recall dooku ever killing anyone with it, just incapacitating and what not.

Oh my, 3 whole nightsisters! Still crappy. 😬

If Thanaton needs time to charge it, he can fly to the top of one of the statues:

12.40.

Also observe Nox and Thanaton's first duel:

YouTube video

15.30. Note that at this time Nox was already a powerful Sith able to beat Khem Val, kill Terentateks, kill Sith Lords with her Force power drained from her and shatter stone with lightning and was amped by the power of 2 Sith Lords already. And Thanaton kills her in 5 seconds.

As an aside, man, Thanaton really sounds like a whiny b*tch in these cutscenes.

Thanaton is among the best Dark Councillors, and while many disbelieve it, I don't think he's weaker than Ravage or Mortis.

Sorry for double post--But I say though 3 and 4 should logically beat him, I'm not sure they can properly defend against his powers. He loses at 5, if this is the case. Though normally I wouldn't rate him Maul's superior.

Maul certainly is a really good combatant who does have a good chance. However, like you I just don't think he'd be able to withstand Thanatons powers. And now that I think about it Kenobi may not be able to either.

TCW Maul would beat thanaton i think, because he too has extremely potent TK, while retaining expert saber skills

also, wasnt thanaton a capable lightsaber duelist?

The guy had a tablet of Tulak Hords lightsaber techniques, so he was likely no slouch.

But did you watch Neph's video? Thanaton used a ritualistic power to completely dominate Nox, who by this point is more powerful with the Force than the likes of Kenobi.

Stops at 4. Maybe even 3.
