Here is a summary of mindset of fans of Legacy era characters.
Observation: Lumiya defeated Luke
Excuse of Legacy era fans: Luke lost because of unfamiliarity with combat style of Lumiya
Crucial observations overlooked by Legacy era fans:
- Luke disarmed Sidious earlier (his power and skills were not lacking)
- Mara never lost to Lumiya
---
Observation: Nyax's powers proved to be too much for Luke to handle
Excuse of Legacy era fans: Nyax drew power from the nexus
Crucial observation overlooked by Legacy era fans:
- Luke had help from 2 more Jedi
- The Jedi also drew power from nexus after Luke's insistence
- Nyax was potentially stronger then any Jedi of his era
---
Observation: Caedus injured Luke in a duel
Hype from Legacy era fans: Caedus > TOR era champions
Crucial observations overlooked by Legacy era fans:
- Luke have limitations and history of failures in combat situations
Observation: Shimrra overwhelmed Luke but the Jedi got the opportunity to win due to additional lightsaber tossed towards him by Jacen that Luke pulled from Shimrra's grasp and the tide shifted.
Misrepresentation of Legacy era fans: Luke defeated Shimrra without any problems
---
Observation: Luke and Krayt fought Abeloth and did equally well, in-fact Krayt demonstrated superior durability.
Hype from Legacy era fans: Luke >>>>>>>> Krayt anyways

I can mention more gems.
But nope. TOR era fans are devoid of logic and have made this era undesirable for others to debate. 🙄
I''ve been following the debate for a while, and I think most of us (with notable exceptions, unfortunately) can agree that:
- Caedus is demonstrably in Luke/Sidious/Yoda tier in sabers
- Caedus's force feats outstrip those of the TOR team by a fair amount
With this in mind, Caedus wins the fight easily.

- Yes, Caedus can be regarded as among the top duelists of the mythos. However, it is a stretch to assume that nobody from TOR era can compete with the likes of Caedus, Luke, Sidious and Yoda in martial aspects of combat.
- Caedus is among the best explored characters of the mythos. He benefits from this exposure in versus debates. This doesn't means that he can take on a Strike Team of some of the greatest Jedi in history and win.

HoT have history of defeating many powerful and notable opponents and noted for his immense power and exceptional martial prowess within the lore.
Braga is among the strongest and most resolute Jedi of the Order.
Zallow blitzed two battle-hardened Sith warriors and overwhelmed Lord Adraas.
Darach demonstrated unparalleled dueling ability in technical context on-screen. He managed to fight two powerful Sith Lords (one of them was already among the greatest warriors of the Empire) simultaneously and overwhelmed both. Darach's on-screen feats are also decent.

I don't think that any Jedi in this Strike Team is inferior than Kyle Katarn and Caedus cannot realistically take on 4 Katarn-level or superior opponents and win.
