Nah. There are legitimate arguments that could be made towards Zannah's sorcery - it depends on to what extent sheer power can compensate for a lack of experience against said attacks. .ie, team 1 doesn't have the raw power advantage, but could win via unconventional methods that Luke was pretty helpless against vs. Exar Kun. It's a legitimate debate about the nature of Force defenses and how they interact with esoteric arts/how generalizable raw power is vs. techniques you haven't encountered before.
^ the mods should read this.
Sirak is capable of blending forms seemlessly, which is better than what Dooku could do (Dooku only stuck to Makashi, which IMO signals a lack of skill in dueling). Seeing as how Sirak is a better duelist than Dooku, he could easily hold off Yoda in lightsaber combat. Also, Sirak's Lightning was potentially lethal to someone as powerful as Bane. Dooku has terrible lightning feats, he can't even kill non-Force sensitives, which is pretty pathetic. Yoda absorbed Dooku's (inferior) lightning "far from easily", so I honestly wouldn't put it past Sirak to overwhelm Yoda on the spot with his powers.
Zannah one-shots Luke with sorcery, though. Bane had immense difficulty dispelling Zannah's sorcery, and he has vastly superior mental resistance feats than Luke. Plus the fact he actually had inside knowledge on Zannah's sorcery, yet was still being butt****ed by it.
So, yeah, team 1 wins.
