Candidates for Tier 8 combatants?

Surik's there if Zallow is, lol. Forgot Arcann, though. You rank Satele quite high. I think that's passable in terms of holistic intent, though.

Where's Bane, by the way? You have Zannah up high but Bane's nowhere to be seen. Also, Kolar deserves to be mid or even high-tier 8. Saesee's probably low-mid 8.

Not sure where I have Bane so I just left him out. And I doubt Kolar is up there with the likes of Malgus / Maul / Kenobi, etc

Forgot about Tresina Lobi/Lumiya

Yeah Ashoka not dying straight away against Vader on a darkside nexus is at least enough to put her high on tier 8

Kit Fisto level lightsaber combatants to Mace level lightsaber combatants.

He curbed Quinlan Vos pretty effortlessly. He's at least mid, IMO. I rank Quinlan above the Deceived! Sith Warriors, so I have Kolar over Zallow too.

Lumiya's kind of odd, but Tresina, definitely.

Has that actually been confirmed? Because if it has, Ahsoka being as low as some people have her would be downright comical (it is already, but holy shit, my penis would fall off from all the Ahsoka wank that would come from that confirmation).

I'd assume so. I don't know if any sources say it is, but it'd honestly be even more comical that it isn't a DS nexus, tbh.

That Vos pwning was circumstantial tho, Kolar caught Quin off gaurd

lol Kolar gave Quinlan a chance to come back up and curbed him again.

Joker, she really isn't.

Probs. Ahsoka would be above SoD Maul if that's the case, IMHO.

If Rebels Maul is >= SoD Maul, yeah.

Wasn't Rebels Maul confirmed to be superior to Ahsoka, though? He was stated to be the strongest of the four, IIRC.

It should go without saying, at the moment Maul is superior to everyone in Rebels bar Vader. It's just that Filoni is doing everything he can to **** it all up

Yeah. But, honestly, they should be extremely close, as Ahsoka was stonewalling him completely for, what, about a minute and 30 seconds? Plus, if we run with the DS nexus thing, Maul was the best fighter on Malachor.

I'm accounting for the nexus, obviously.

If we're talking about the on-panel portion of the fight, it was less than 30 seconds. We have lots of short fights with inferiors matching superiors - Ki-Adi vs Ventress, Bulq vs Mace, Grievous vs Mace, Obi-Wan vs Dooku, etc. - granted, they're not quite as long, but you get my point.

Well, Ahsoka vs. Maul was much longer than those fights, and the fact that Ahsoka didn't budge from her spot after a minute and 20 seconds of dueling speaks volumes of their overall parity. And hell, if anything, Ahsoka's offensive pushed Maul back after Maul's little monologue; albeit briefly, but still. Ahsoka did far too well for them not to be extremely close.

Do we know that Ezra reaching the top of the temple was after they begin to fight or at the same time? It seems pretty lucky that Maul and Ahsoka were standing at the exact same spot after apprently a minute of dueling especially since both are extremely mobile fighters anyway.

Any evidence if the nexus was noticeably affecting Maul or Ahsoka?

There are many people on this list who do not belong here lmao.

Guess that's fair.
