Farfalla and Johun are fodder, though. And Lsu has more or less only hype.

It healed instantly because it was a not deep enough cut. Still, if someone like Johun can cut him, what stops much more agile, skilled and faster Yoda to cut Bane's hand clean off?

EDIT: And that's assuming Bane even gets to Yoda. He needs to go though someone like Sidious first. Or Anakin, who trashed Dooku in saber combat.

They were enhanced by BM and Farfalla wasn't fodder, his form was stated to be perfect. Raskta was also using a form Bane's not good against, and only a fool wouldn't recognise her skill.

Bane won't be distracted by 2 other BM'd fighters, one of which was specifically syncing her attacks up with Johun's for maximum effect. His hand is also a small, fast moving target. And the joint that Yoda will be aiming for won't be in a good position for him to cut since Bane will be mainly facing him. It's still an incredibly hard area to target and gives Bane a huge advantage compared to his total offensive freedom.

He can probably get to and die at Mace's level.

Mace has TK on lock, and saber skill to boot. I don't see Bane winning this one.

Fodder enhanced by BM is a um... better fodder?

Apart from that statement what are Farfallas' accomplishments as as a duelist. Like actual feats?

Yoda's smaller size will grant him maneuverability that Bane can only dream off. In that case, combined with Yoda's agility, speed and saber mastery I can definitely see Yoda pulling that off.

Farfalla killed an injured and exhausted Kopesh (The tank). In Neph lingo that makes him at least Ulic Qel-Droma tier

"TK on lock" doesn't really help in sabers only.

my bad.

Still, he stops at Mace.

Stops at Mace or Sidious.

He probably makes it to two, given the HoT is about as bad as Bane is. Beyond that he stands no shot.

Lol @ DMB putting Bane on par with Mace and Sidious in skill

I said he definitely stops at Sidious... how is that me putting Bane on par with Sidious? Stop misrepresenting my opinions to try and make me look bad.

Calm your ****. To get past Sidious, he'd have to get past Mace, and getting past Mace would definitely make Bane a peer of Sidious, as well as a peer of Mace.

Not necessarily. Mace wouldn't have the huge sense of betrayal to bolster his inner darkness to draw upon.

Falls at 5 or 7.

TBH I have my doubts if Bane can pass Maul at #3.

At #1 Grievous will also be a problem for him imho.

He might get passed one because of his plot armor but he loses all others.

I concur. 👆

It is a 50/50 toss up between Bane and Grievous

I like how you're implying Mace needs a huge amp to be comparable to Sidious, and especially Bane in sabers.
