Galen Marek and Darth Vader vs. Revan and Darth Bane
Two powerful teams face-off.
Setting: Death Star throne room with Palpatine overseeing the fight.
Combatants: This is Vader and Marek from TFU II, Revan from his novel and Bane from Rule of Two.
Rules: This is an all-out fight, no morals, no restrictions.
Bonus: The victorious team has to challenge the Emperor.
Team 1 maybe. Bane is the best fighter imo but Revan is a weaklink. Vader or Marek won't be able to defeat Bane, as he's a superior swordsman to both of them, can match their TK and might overpower them with difficulty in lightning. But I think Revan will likely lose before Bane defeats his opponent. He's outmatched in terms of lightsabers and in the Force..... eh, he can definitely block Galens lightning but I would not bank on him doing the same against their TK.
I guess its a case of who wins first and easiest. So maybe a toss up.
I'd say both teams can beat the Emperor though.
Actually, I see Revan facing Galen and Vader facing Bane. Revan and Galen are both decent lightsaber duelists, but Galen may be a bit stronger in the force, though if Revan gets the opportunity to block Galen's lightning (which he can), then Galen's screwed. I don't see revan getting overwhelmed by TK either, if the Emperor couldn't do the same. As for Bane vs. Vader, Bane may be a slightly better duelist, but Vader has more impressive TK, and he can block Bane's lightning with his saber (if Zannah was able to without too much difficulty, I don't see why Vader couldn't), so this battle can go either way. I do think Revan has a good shot at beating Marek though.
Which Emperor? Anyways i'm pretty sure both teams have a decent shot at beating either emperor.
Bonus: Which Emperor? Anyways, i'm pretty sure team 2 would lose to either emperor, as Revan is the weak link imo.
Didn't he have orbalisks when he used that force wave? If this is Orbalisk Bane then he solo'es. Anyways, i'm not seeing how he "very comfortably" beats vader in sabers, Vader has combated foes that are as fast as Bane (Maul for example), and he's moved so fast a force user couldn't see him. Bane doesn't have a strength advantage, not a skill advantage, etc.
Yes he did, but I hardly think it matters. Bane used the same attack multiple times in the fight and had enough energy to fight for over an hour. It clearly isn't an attack he needed to strain to perform. Besides which, he becomes more powerful after losing the orbalisks (perhaps being just as powerful in DoE as in RoT) ad shows he can still disintegrate metal in that book.
Maul isn't as fast as Bane and Vader lost the saber fight with him. When did Vader move fast enough for a Force use to not see him?
Vader half turned. "Do you think I do not recognize Roan Lands? Do you think I would be foolish enough to let you take him away?"
"He is a former associate, yes, but --"
It happened before he could get out another word. Faster than an eyeblink. Faster than he'd seen anyone move, anyone except Yoda.
The lightsaber hadn't been there, and then it was, and the lightsaber was a blur. Vader moved without seeming to move, and the lightsaber sliced into Roan, straight into his chest. Straight into his heart.
So yeah, Bane is still faster than "Slow Assh*le" Vader and would beat the shit out of him in a lightsaber duel. Bane moved faster than an entire room of Sith in PoD could comprehend, and obviously he is far faster than that now. He's fast enough to wield a dozen lightsabers from Zannahs perspective, dodge Rasktas attacks, fight 3 Jedi at once evenly, move quick enough to blitz Farfalla were he not BM-enhanced and block and dodge a pouring storm for 10 minutes in DoE. His reflexes are such that he was able to speed up his perception until time was frozen.
He is faster than Vader.
