Kas'im vs Plo Koon

1. Sabers
2. Force
3. All Out

Who takes each round and why?

Plo Koon, tbh. Will elaborate later. If I remember to, at least.

Can't wait. We need to consider Kas'im's technical edge, though.

Achoo

Kas'im in all.

Being the greatest duelist during a time of shitty duelists > being a shitty duelist during a time of great duelists.

Being able to block a force wave that casually dropped a huge temple > freezing people in creeks.

He was on a nexus

The same nexus that amped the person who threw out the wave which leveled the temple. Do not cherry pick, Elli.
But seriously, Kas has this.

The point is that the nexus's effect on Bane is already accounted for in the fact that the wave leveled a temple. It's not a valid feat for Kas'im to point out that he blocked said attack, because you need to subtract the nexus from his Force defenses.

Sure he can't deflect a temple-collapsing attack off-nexus, but he can deflect Bane's attack. And honestly, Bane even at this time is better than Plo.

Is he?

In either case, you don't have to be as strong as someone to block their attack (Kas'im explicitly isn't stronger than Bane).

Yup.

I am aware, but seeing as how Kas could do such a thing, I feel it's enough to suggest Plo's offensive Force edge isn't enough to snatch him a win.

Yeah but who said it would?

Nobody, I'm just sayin' Plo's Force edge is moot, and he's probably inferior as a duelist.

Kas'im wins round 1, and the second round is almost irrelevant because I don't think Koon can really do anything to Kas'im in regards to the Force, and Kas'im is lacking in offensive Force showings to suggest he can really hit Koon with anything. So, Kas'im also takes all out.

Why exactly does Kas'im take round 1 tho?

Because DBT characters Kas'im is a god.

I mean he was losing to Bane even when he stunted his training, so obviously Kas'im is the greatest lightsaber duelist of all time.

He only stunted his training in that he didn't teach him how to respond to dual saber style. When he took advantage of that he was winning.

Kas'im mastered lightsaber combat to a greater extent than even Yoda and Sidious. They never perfected every move and sequence of every style in spite of their far longer lifespans.

Lol
