Darth Vader ROTJ vs. TCW Anakin Skywalker

Battle takes place over the corpse of Darth Bane

*Anakin as of Season 4 of the Clone wars

*Round 1: Canon feats only

*Round 2: EU feats allowed

Using just canon feats, Vader doesn't have many saber feats that we know of or can accurately quantify. I'm going with Anakin.

Round 2 probably goes to Vader.

ROTS Anakin would be superior. But S4 Anakin? He's still possibly superior duelist, but I doubt that he would be able to beat his ROTJ self in all-out.

Sabers- Anakin undoubtedly, Anakin is just as strong but faster.
Force- Vader takes this
All-Out- Vader

Canon Vader would TK the shit out of Anakin.

After reading the LotS excerpt, I'd have to agree. Anakin's saber abilities likely can't compensate for Vader's huge Force advantage.

Yeah Vader could likely just Force choke his younger self.

Mmm don't push it.

Anakin gets ragdolled.

This is only S4 Anakin remember. As per Canon ROTS Anakin is far more powerful, and Machine Vader even more powerful in the Force.

Where is this "far more powerful" quote? Because that could easily be referencing from the start of the Clone Wars to ROTS. In which case obviously. And Machine Vader being more powerful in the force is true, but Anakin has beastly TK feats on his own. Vader has the hype to be above Dooku, but ANH Vader's performance against a weaker Kenobi, and all of Vader's performances against anyone of note have left much to be desired.

I'm not sure if Kenobi or Skywalker all that far stronger during ROTS. Vader with his great TK should be able to beat S4 Anakin with moderate difficulty, but to assume that would be ragdoll? Or just Force choke to the death?
You're going too far, this is madness!

Point conceded. Still don't know about him choking Anakin out or ragdolling him.
