Darth Baras vs Savage Opress

Fight takes place in the Dark Council Chambers. Imagine it was Savage Opress instead of the Emperor's Wrath II, but otherwise the same setting and circumstances.

The entire Dark Council is watching with great interest.

Round 1 - Baras doesn't have any borrowed powers from Sel-Makor.

Round 2 - Baras does have his borrowed powers.

Baras' borrowed powers may well be a great enough edge.

Edited the OP to divide the fight into two rounds.

Bump.

Baras. He's overall superior and he spams lightning.

Even without amps from Sel-Makor?

Does anyone have a gauge for Baras' saber skill?

I'll go with Savage.

He's also pretty much featless in terms of bladework and hasn't demonstrated much with the Force, either [other than lightning].

Savage, on the other hand, has very impressive TK, a lot of physical strength usable in combat situations, considerable dueling skills and a lot more feats to his name. He wins.

He was able to fight the Wrath for a long time inconclusively, suggesting he can more than handle Savages melee attacks. Meanwhile he has the undeniable advantage with lightning and plausibly other darkside techniques Savage has no defense against.

Baras stomps both rounds

He presented a challenge to the Hero of Tython counterpart, HoT being Obi-Wan tier pre-Chapter 3.

Although I believe the Wrath is a respectable and accomplished duelist, there's nothing to suggest his physicality equals that of Savage's beastly strength and melee attacks. Furthermore, the Wrath doesn't appear to be exhausted or injured after his fight against Baras.

Baras would have the advantage with his lightning if this was Season 3 Savage, but after that, he becomes stronger and more skilled, and after being injured by lightning the logical assumption would be that he has learned how to defend against it. Besides, he only gets downed by lightning when he's attacked unexpectedly with it and not in position to defend against it.

Which other dark side techniques?

Savage.

He's right, though.

Oh not saying I disagree. I actually think Savage takes this as well. Just joking/semi-trolling as is respectable on KMC.

Baras both rounds, stomps second.

Just rough stuff like going toe-to-toe with Wrath II and also training him, which is pretty solid

So is Baras > Anakin, Tond?

Dunno about 1, but LMAO @ Savage winning 2, tbch.

If Sel-Makor rivals or is close to Vitiate in terms of power, Baras does win round 2. Round 1, tho, is Savage's.
