Bonus round because I have no ****ing clue where to put this nigga: FotJ Boba Fett

Battle takes place on Dathomir.

Stops somewhere 10-13 IMO, and I'm not 100% sure but I think she could lose potentially lose the bonus.

For some reason I think #4 could give Asajj absolute hell... mmm

#9 already beat her once.

That was fairly early in the war, I believe.

I feel it could stop at warm up

Yes, but is there a reason that team didn't improve during the biggest war the galaxy has ever seen? Even though virtually everyone did.

Especially Aayla who was rather young when they fought. Only 26.

Not to mention they had a few more months to improve.

I'm sure they improved, but I highly doubt it was to the degree Ventress improved. Prime Ventress is more skilled, powerful, and experienced (specifically fighting other lightsaber wielders - compared to Aayla who only had one(?) duel after her fight with Asajj - and Unduli having zero documented saber duels after her bout with Asajj) than the Ventress that fought the duo. Now, you can probably say the same for prime Unduli & Secura, but... Ventress' increased growth is far better documented and explicit than the two Jedi. It'd be a guessing game trying to pinpoint how much better the duo is in their prime compared to when they engaged Ventress. So I feel like using Unduli & Secura beating a pre-prime Ventress as proof they could do it again as a pretty shaky foundation at best.

Well what degree did she improve? Even early CW Ventress was a match for Plo Koon, beat Fisto and was said that Mace needed all his skill to drive her off.

Also in her duel with Aayla and Luminara she was consistantly on the back foot and tried to ran away.
So it wasn't practically close. Even if prime Ventress would fare better it's hardly proof she could turn that early CW loss into a majority.

When did Ventress fight Aayla / Luminara?

Pretty sure that was in one of the TCW games.

LMFAO.

Was during 'Mission to Azloc III', wasn't it?

As you can see in her second fight, Ventress' performance against Anakin & Kenobi was much better than her first fight with them on Christophsis. She was able to remove Kenobi from the fight for over ten seconds with a kick, and was able to TK Skywalker. I think that performance speaks for itself that she improved quite a bit, especially when she was fighting an even better Kenobi/Skywalker duo.

Much of that fight was just gameplay so we can't be certain how Ventress was faring against them, and the fight was cut short because of a cave-in. Ventress early in the war was stalemating Luminara in telekinesis, so her power increase (that was specified by both Sidious and Dooku) would be massively beneficial in a rematch against Unduli and Secura, and is an advantage not really held by her previously. Aayla in particular has fell victim to opponents that boast large Force advantages. And as seen with Kenobi, she could remove one from the fight for a decent amount of time with a kick and focus on one combatant - and Ventress more towards her prime had an offensive that was able to defeat Grievous, so Luminara or Secura would have a very, very difficult time fending off Asajj without the aid of their ally, even for a short period of time.

Point is, given her effectiveness against a better duo in Kenobi/Skywalker more towards her prime, I think she definitely can pull of a majority against Unduli & Secura, who to be frank are nowhere near Kenobi & Skywalker's leagues. Overall, she is just more powerful and more martially skilled than them, IMO.

Barriss already rekt her shit in, so she's obviously done at 4.
