She's more powerful.

The most she's going to do to Kenobi is push him, and it's not like he can't deflect it when he's backhanding a series of Mustafar Anakin's TK attacks in the novel.

In regards to dueling, Kenobi's defensive skills can obviously handle Tano's offense. He might be strained at some points, but she's no Grievous in ferocity or speed.

@ Joker. Based on what? How is she more powerful than Kenobi?

I see no reason to believe Ahsoka takes a majority against the likes of Kenobi. Who in the context of Rebels is more likely than not going to be/is a rival to Vader.

I think a duel would be close enough that a push can give her an edge. I agree Kenobi would beat her in a duel, but I feel like it's obviously going to be long and contested. She doesn't have to be as fast or ferocious as Grievous to press Kenobi, either. Also, I find it difficult to quantify Kenobi deflecting Anakin's TK, seeing as Anakin as of Mustafar is kind of an unknown in terms of how much of his power he can really access due to his unstable mental state. Who do you think Mustafar Anakin is comparable to?

I see a repeat of Mustafar minus some unneeded drama.

@Joker Mustafar Anakin should be at least S6 TCW Anakin level or above. TCW Movie Anakin was already force pushing an AT-TE.

Stalemating / deflecting Mustafar Anakin's TK, pulverizing Durge > Knocking out inquisitors and Pushing Vader back a few meters.

This is canon only, *****. 🙂

Take out pulverizing Durge then you shitfag.

Spoiler:
luv u tho #nohomo

Dooku's attack, albeit directed toward an Ataru user not Soresu, was easily handled by Kenobi. That's pretty solid indication of what Kenobi is packing. As a Soresu practitioner, Kenobi can preserve far more energy defending than Tano would be attacking. A prolonged engagement is only going to further benefit Kenobi. As Tano weakens, Kenobi can launch an offensive (something he proved capable of doing against Maul/Opress and Hett), and then end it that way.

Tano's best bet is to win quickly, but she's not powerful or skilled enough to do that.

I'm honestly not convinced Tano would even pressure Kenobi. Kenobi was handling thousands of battledroids from all angles on Utapau just fine.

It's a better display of power than what Tano did to Vader. Context should be considered, and in so it's clear Tano pushed Vader with his defenses down. Not that pushing someone means anything in the Rebels continuity, where the Inquisitor is capable of dismissing Kanan with a wave of his hand for a dozen seconds, but then have Kanan pin him against the wall directly thereafter. Also, the Inquistior dominated Kanan with telekinesis during their fight below the Communication Tower, and yet Kanan bested him in combat only a short time afterward in their final fight. The concept of the Force barrier, as described in Legends works and other Canon novels, doesn't seem to be applied to the Rebels continuity, at least not in a situation like this: http://i.imgur.com/VXuElFm.png. The only barrier we ever seen put up across all of Filoni's work came along with a visible representation of defense (Kenobi and Anakin against Dooku on the Netflix series).
