TCW Anakin vs Darth Maul SOD

I don't think his performance with Barriss is comparable, especially since he wasn't trying to kill her. He certainly was angry, but I don't think he was trying to focus his rage in an effort to kill her as he does against Dooku.

That was in reference to you saying Anakin ragdolling Ventress was inconsistent, bro. He ragdolled Bariss as well, and she's a similarly capable Force user by this point.

But as far as pressing Dooku those other times, well I don't think that's beyond Maul's ability at all.

Nor do I.

He did not ragdoll Barriss nearly to the same extent as he did Ventress. Barriss gave him an intense fight before he overpowered her with the force, and that was after he became extremely pissed. Dooku would demolish Barriss without even thinking. The best Ventress has ever done against Dooku one on one, was clash blades with him for about 10 seconds, before being ragdolled. Ventress is absolutely no match, or even a challenge to Dooku on her own, whereas she's consistently done well against Anakin even when backed by Kenobi. If his ragdolling of Ventress was consistent, then it would have been consistent, which it wasn't, not in TCW anyway.

Since when is Barriss a similarly capable force user to Ventress? You do realize that in the series, Barriss is still merely a padawan, right? I wasn't much impressed with Anakin's performance there. That's why I didn't understand why you brought it up, TBH. Other than sneak attacking Ventress, what feats put her on par? I don't even think any of her EU or her OCW showings were taken into account due to the fact that she was stated to be a padawan on the official website.

Not saying she is near Ventress, but those are some Force feats I recall that are pretty impressive.

She also got a sneak attack on Ventress, and Ventress even pointed out not many people could do that to her.

Implying that it was a force user who attacked her.

^ Personally think she was implying it was a High End Force user.

Another nice force feat of Skywalker's (he was pretty consistent in the latter seasons of TCW) was in S6 running from Embo. When he sent those huge Ice bergs flying towards Embo.

That was on top of anticipating his surprise sniper attack in the first place, and TK'ing Embo at the end. These were all impressive because they were all immediate feats in the middle of combat.

There's also the fact that Skywalker pretty much tanked all of Dooku's Tk in "Crisis on Naboo."

Honestly I'd say TCW Skywalker (later half of the series that is) is on par with TCW Maul in Tk.
