Accolades for PT Jedi being some of the best swordsmen in history?

Can be for individuals or for the entire Order. I know Fisto, Kolar, Tiin etc. have those. What about others?

Jinn has one

Practically everyone with a name has one lol

Pretty much. Though I wouldn't say all of history, but within the Jedi Order.

The vast majority from the PT era.

In fact I can't think of a single one that comes from a third person perspective outside of the PT era considering Kas'im's own is based entirely on Bane's opinion. 🙂

Qui-Gon Jinn was one of the most able swordsmen in the Jedi order. The Jedi Master he had trained under had considered him one of the best the Master had taught in his more than four hundred years in the order. Qui-Gon had fought in conflicts all across the galaxy in the span of his life and against odds so great that many others would not have stood a chance. He had survived battles that had tested his skill and resolve in every conceivable way.

You'll never guess where I got this from. 😉

Qui-Gon's RT? 🙂

No. 🙂

Can you post the the accolades themselves here? "Practically with everyone with a name has one" isn't helping. I've checked several Council RT's and am finding zero from objective sources.

TPM novelization, I think. But anway, it doesn't specifically refer to all of history, which is what I'm looking for.

There aren't any from objective sources. ✅

Syndicate's trying to pull me out of my newfound state of enlightenment

Anoon Bondara by being a weapons master is confirmed as being one of the greatest duelists in the history of the Jedi order. He admits inferiority to Qui-Gon and Windu, so that same accolade can apply to anyone above or equal to Qui-Gon or Windu as well.

That's not an objective quote.

Where?

As far as I'm aware he's noted to be one of the best fighters in the Order at the time but not due to being a weapons master.

"Master Bondara epitomized what Darsha hoped to become one day. The Twi'lek Jedi Master lived in the Force. Always still and complacent as a pool of unknown depth, he was nevertheless one of the best fighters in the order." - Darth Maul Shadow Hunter

Despiteany claiming literally every character has them, I'm finding none. Even the B-team quote was from the perspective of Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Most are from subjective sources, but not exactly uninformed ones, or rather ones we are given reason to dobut. Plo Koon and Sora Bulq however are objectively stated to be some of the best combatants in history. Yoda is as well.

Could have sworn Yoda/Windu/Dooku at least had some 3rd person omniscient narrator accolades to this effect

What sources are there for Koon and Bulq?

Plo Koon is a member of the Jedi High Council and a Jedi General in the Clone Wars. Koon is one of the most powerful Jedi ever, with awesome fighting ability, strong telekinetic powers and superb piloting skills.
