Kyp Durron vs. DoE Bane

No prep time/no amp.

Neutral setting.

Who wins?

Bane.

Atm I think Kyp wins via vastly superior TK. Kyp can move black holes, Bane's got nothing on that.

Black hole moving Kyp would defeat Bane and the vast, vast majority of Force Users. But that isn't how he is consistently portrayed, much like Luke.

And?

So you don't like the feat, too bad.

I love the feat and have been one of Kyp's few supporters over the years on the basis of that feat. It's not about disliking the feat, it's about the feat not being a reflection of how Kyp is conistently portrayed as being. You want to use that Kyp, that's fine, but you need to make a note of that in the OP. Just like we wouldn't use Mace's CW feats unless we specify it's that particular potrayal of the character we're using.

wut?

Character's feats define said character unless they were amped. It's Kyp's high-end showing, no doubt. But that's ok.

I don't need to specify every time that only high-end showings apply. That's silly.

Unless we talk about specific incarnations of characters, like, say, TPM Kenobi and ANH Kenobi. But that's it.

Kyp; moderate ease.

I understand you have your preferences Tempest but you should really know better than joining in with and aligning yourself with the new breed of trolls at this forum, simply because they troll against the characters that you don't like. Unless you want his place, which was once a really good platform for debate, to turn into a place overrun with Carthage's antics and trolling.

You really should stop projecting your own quirks onto others, app. Bane's good, Kyp is just better. 👆

How about instead of looking at what defines the combat prowess of a character (which I presume is what you mean), you look at what defines a character in the first place? And in a collaborative universe filled with inconsistencies as the SW universe is, it's not the outliers that define the character, it's consistent, regular potrayals.

It's Kyp's high-end showing, no doubt. But that's ok.

There's a difference between a high end feat or one of a character's best feats, and then feats that are so over the top that they are completely incompatible with how the character is usually shown to operate. The black whole feat falls into the latter catagory.

Kyp slaughters

Bane, comfortably.

Tempest has done nothing but encourage the trolls and attempted to add fuel to the fire and join in with them. TBH the only things he does these days is troll, albeit in a less aggressive and offensive way.

Better in every possible way 👆

@ Neph, wow Bane will defend against Kyp's TK? Just curious.

He cant. Bane has no barrier feats at all to suggest he can't get ragdolled.

I've done nothing to encourage your behavior, actually, and have done everything to try to curtail it bar complaining to moderators. But your hatred for Sidious and the PT has just spun wildly out of control.

Not sure how your constant "Claiming X feat is overrated" is any less trollish, and you constantly violate REXX'S additional rule by dragging out conversations in spite of losing arguments.

But ok everyone else is a troll 🙄

Pretty sure Badabing recently and publicly admonished the dissenters for their thin skin. Not sure why some can't tolerate a difference in opinion. Feel free to protest and disagree, but to shout "troll!" every single time someone doesn't conform to the (frankly unpopular) notion that Bane is some demigod is pretty silly.

I understand that you like having the forum accept Sidious as the most powerful Sith, and the PT era as the golden age of lightsaber prowess, and the general dominance of the likes of Yoda, Vader and various other movie characters, but it shouldn't be that way at the expense of turning the forum into a place filled with juvenile trolling and such a narrowminded environment that really inhibits having a good well thought out discussion.
