LAL, no.
Placing Bane on Kyle Katarn's or Shaak Ti 's level overall is the epitome of mental retardation.

He's said worse, too.

Again show me any no nexus feats that places him decidedly above them . Without a nexus he isn't that far above or even stronger than either of them.

All I see is a guy who's way too in love with his own opinion and self-righteous indignation that others could possibly disagree with him.

At the very least your intense bias casts everything you say on this matter into doubt.

Sounds like you're trying to confirm your own opinion that he's so far above the force users I mentioned. And lmfao at "righteous indignation", I'm not the one trawling for threads so I can find others that suit bias like you. If you've got a reason that he's far above Dooku in terms of feats, then I'd love to hear it. Again I can show threads where people are putting him far above where he could feasibly stand, and make far more laughable claims than the ranking I've given him

I can sympathise with you in that Bane gets both underrated and overrated, and I can admire that you took it upon yourself to read the trilogy to understand him better, but let me ask you this: how much of Maul have you really read?

Logically speaking there absolute no reason why Bane should be anywhere near as powerful as the people later in his lineage, especially when it's a known fact that they grew more powerful with each generation.

That only applies to those who surpassed there predecessors though, Dooku never did. In fact he was never even a real apprentice.

Nephthys The Gr8est!!!!!!!!

The RoT is also flawed in that as we saw with Zannah, the apprentices can be pretty heavily over-specialized and they develop their skills around beating one opponent: their master. Just because Cognus managed to defeat Zannah with her skillset at one point, it doesn't mean she'd also defeat Bane in a straight up fight using the same skills. Zannah didn't manage a legit win against Bane either.

SunRazer Back From The Dead

Their skillsets might not have matched well against Bane, but we know each consecutive member of the Order was more powerful than the last.

We've also got to consider that the apprentice continues to grow in strength after defeating their master. ROTJ Sidious is significantly superior to TPM Sidious for example.

Bane also says more than once Zannah has the power to surpass him.

Which has nothing to do with my point because DMB and Neph have had Bane superior to the likes of Sidious, Yoda, Plagueis, etc on many occasions. There's also the fact that this is hundreds of years after the RoT began, and aside from Sidious none of these people are miles above Dooku.

This doesn't exactly help your argument.

Nephthys The Gr8est!!!!!!!!

I haven't had Bane superior to those 3. I've argued that he could defeat or match them (only Yoda tho due to Orbalisks iirc) but purely based on his skillset, not that he's more powerful than them or superior.

Also huh? Yoda and Plagueis are on Sidious' level. If he's miles above Dooku, so are they.

Far enough I assumed you we're speaking in terms of Dooku.

That's because I don't agree with Neph. 👆

I have never had Bane above Sidious or Yoda on this forum, and I never said POD Bane>Sidious in sabers, you guys need to stop making shit up.

Not sure what all that's about, he's been in more than 1 book and I'd rather not read through all 3 just to find that instance.

Nephthys The Gr8est!!!!!!!!

Bane gets ambushed while he's exhausted by Cognus who's weakening his power in the force. She manages to nick him with a poisoned knife that knocks him out after a period of time.

Oh dry your eyes, not everything Carthage is mentioning in regards to the Bane movement has to do with you specifically. Fact of the matter is that Appletonia does insinuate that PoD Bane is > Sidious, and by a great margin at that. Besides, he was around when you did say Bane>Sidious, so what he said wasn't exactly a lie regardless of whether or not it was here.

He's attributing a bullshit claim like that to me and Neph as well, despite it not being something either of us agree with in any way.

I stopped saying that on SWF before he joined. Also that was Freshest who accused me of that.

Again, he's pulling extreme cases from the group in general that you happen to be a part of. You seem to get this odd feeling that anything anyone says about the internet-spanning Bane fanwank must be a personal assault on you.

I honestly don't recall whether or not you dropped Bane>Sidious by the time Winebottle joined, It's not like I'm keeping track of dates. But I do remember that you still had Bane>Yoda early on in your KMC career as well. Not that the small details are relevant because it's not all about you.
