Darth Bane & Darth Zannah vs. Anakin Skywalker & Obi-Wan Kenobi [SABERS ONLY]

Bane & Zannah as of Dynasty of Evil.

Anakin & Obi-Wan as of Revenge of the Sith.

Sabers only. Battle takes place on Lothal.

Bane can't carry the team to victory.

Anakin fumbles against Zannah's defenses for a while until Bane finishes Kenobi extremely quickly and tears his whiny head off.

An all out would be a more interesting contest, really. Team 2 solidly.

Team two with room to spare. Both Anakin and Obi Wan are better saber users then Bane.

Personally I feel that Zannah is very well suited to fighting Anakin. His power attacks will be nullified just like Bane's were by her style that focuses on pushing attacks to the side with her spinning blade rather than meet them head on. Her impeccable defense will likely frustrate Skywalker into making a critical mistake, much like what occurred in RotS.

Bane is also well suited for Kenobi. Given that he's much stronger, faster and powerful than him. He would semi-blitz him. His focus on advanced Djem So and highly unpredictable assault will naturally assist in swiftly overwhelming him.

Switched around Bane overpowers Anakin and two Metapods use harden at each other indefinitely.

Anakin would plow through her.

Like Bane did? Anakin can't muscle his way through a defense that specifically negates strength, he can't outspeed her when a faster duelist failed to, he cannot use the environment against her because Lothal is a flat grassland. So how exactly would Anakin "plow" through her?

Like how Bane was going to do, or that other featless Jedi from RoT.

Bane explicitly couldn't plow through her. Hence why, after trying and failing to do that, he backed off and resorted to an indirect strategy that didn't involve breaking himself against her defense.

Bringing up a fight that happened far before her prime to prove a point is stupid and you should feel stupid. Because you are stupid. And also you are adopted. So that is also funny. Idiot.

Also you're ignoring that she only needs to hold him off long enough for Bane to shove his lightsaber up Obi-Wan's one ring.

Man, you throwing out insults already? I can already sense previous butthurt running through your boner.

If you think that's a legitimate insult you should get off the internet right now.

Another insult?! Jez dude, calm down. Just a teen loving Star Wars here.

And Traya does > Revan btw.

Remember that Tier List we're working on?

8 and 6 vs. 9 and 8.

Stomp.

Bane needs his armor to stand a chance of taking on a 9 and an 8 with irrelevant help.

Zannah is a 7 at worst, tbh, she's probably an 8 in her own right. That said, Anakin is a 9, and Obi-Wan has her beat in virtually every area when it comes to sabers.

I couldn't care less about your tier list. It's a pointless exercise that oversimplifies a complex subject. Anakin isn't going to beat Zannah because she's a 6. Bane, an 8 according to you, couldn't directly overpower Zannah in direct combat and needed to indirectly use the environment to penetrate her defenses. Anakin possesses nothing that will allow him to get through her defense where Bane couldn't.

If you're going to say team 2 wins, actually look at the duelists and how their abilities match up. It tells a different story than your point system.

Ah, but Anakin>Bane. Just cause Bane can't do it doesn't mean Anakin can't.

No. Somebody's placement on a made up tier list shouldn't be used as an actual argument ever.

In what way does Anakin surpass Bane?
