Bane's obviously the most comparable figure to Malgus because of their similarities in both style and power. But that begs the question, where to rank Bane? You'll get a lot of different answers on that one depending on who you ask... So really this thread is bound to prove somewhat unhelpful. It's best to come to your own conclusions based on your interpretation of his accomplishments and how they compare to the accomplishments of others; it's not like he's lacking in material, after all.
I arrived a few months ~ a year before the "anti-Bane" movement started. Bane certainly wasn't considered "fodder tier" until at the very least mid-2014...
EDIT: Just checked, Jman joined about 9 months after I did, so yeah--support for Bane should still have been fairly high back then. Shit really didn't hit the fan for Bane until Carthage joined, really.

Emp told me it started around the time he came to the forums. *Shrug* wouldn't be surprised if that wasn't completely factual.

Actually, he's probably not wrong. Carthage and DMB joined within a couple weeks of each other IIRC, and although there was already an anti-Bane movement amiss by then, it was Carthage who really put the nail in the old baldy's coffin.
