I don't really feel like Aayla is superior to Ahsoka to such a degree that it wouldn't take a pretty decent amount of time taking her down.Any more folks gonna post and explain their feckin' positions or nah?
I'm also dubious if Kenobi really could defeat Vos and another member of his team in a 2v1.
Originally posted by ILSYeah, it really just depends on that. Either way I feel both versions of the fight scenarios being relatively prolonged.

Better than running away from Grievous, yes. And no, he was actually willing to kill her in that fight. He made note of that prior to and after the fight several times. And there is absolutely nothing indicating that Aurra became reckless during that fight, resulting in her loss - in fact, Aayla made an effort to talk down Aurra even while fighting her. Aurra pretended to ponder the possibility of stopping the fight, and then attacked Aayla out of nowhere, even landing a blow on her. That's a demonstration of cunning, not recklessness. After that, Aayla won.
The aurra sing and aayla databanks say otherwise.
When Aurra was hired to assassinate a Senator on Devaron, a team of Jedi was sent to investigate. Among them, the Dark Woman. Aurra sprang a trap on her former master, pinning the Dark Woman and the Jedi Master Tholme in a cave explosion. The remaining Jedi, Aayla Secura, tracked down Aurra and confronted her. What followed was a fierce duel between the two women. The fight was nearly a draw, until Aayla goaded Aurra, piercing through her icy façade to describe the wounded, lonely, abandoned child within. Aurra attacked ferociously, but Aayla bested her.True to her Jedi heritage, Aayla did not needlessly take Aurra's life. She instead scarred her with her blade, and severed the Rhen-Orm biocomputer antenna. Stunned, Aurra was easily taken into custody, and sent to the prisons of Oovo IV.

I don't find beating Aurra to be more impressive than Ahsoka's performance against Grievous.
Though, it should be noted that Aurra is honestly so inconsistent. In some works, she can challenge Darth Caedus and the Jinn/Kenobi duo. In others, she gets stomped by Adi Gallia and is almost killed by a tap of Darth Vader's fingers.

What were the circumstances behind all of those encounters, though? That could probably explain why she's apparently inconsistent. IIRC Adi Gallia took her out with a boulder. Being destroyed by Vader isn't necessarily inconsistent, maybe Vader is just that good? But if she did actually contend with Caedus, without circumstance, then she is definitely inconsistent.
Her challenging the Jinn/Kenobi duo wasn't too far-fetched after reading it. It wasn't like she was replicating Darth Maul's showing against them. She did well but the fight was pretty short.
