Sure it's a modification. A drastic one with relation to skill? No.
But what are you basing that off, other than feats from a past-prime Qui-Gon? We don't know what he'd be capable of, really, or whether he'd be capable of performing similar feats to her.
We know he's better than Anoon Bondara and worse than Qui-Gon, Dooku and Yoda. I'll admit that's a pretty big range, but unless there's an actual indicator for it, I'm not putting him above Traya. The fact that he can't use as many power strikes doesn't justify him being below Traya and suddenly moving above her.
I don't think one can really argue who's be superior, which is why I said based off feats Team 2 would take sabers...
Unless you have parameters for "prime Qui-Gon", we're just speculating needlessly. Perhaps he would've been better if he could've used more power blows, but that doesn't affect his skill.
Where do you place Traya as a swordsman anyway, tbh?
Where do I place Traya? Hard to say. Above Qui-Gon, though, definitely.
You think giving someone a good fight equates to being an equal to them? Brakiss was capable of giving Luke an exhausting fight but was no match for him.
They aren't remotely the same thing, and yes I think Darth Traya can give Darth Revan an excellent fight. That is not for the aforementioned reasons, however.
Read both parts of what you yourself said, though:
1. Good fight
2. Looooong before her prime.
Add those two together, and you get what you just stated: you think Darth Traya can give DR an excellent fight/is on the same level as him. To which I say:

Traya can give Darth Revan an excellent fight over-all, Force included. Which is definitely not anything like retarded when she is hitting Vader tier Force feats with ease.
Arren Kae being on par with Yusanis in relation to Darth Revan is a sign that her dueling skills in her prime are definitely up to par for beating Jinn in a duel.
Welcome back to the topic, Skillz.
