Showings more pathetic than Arcann's?

Edit: Nah actually, King summed it up better.

Darth Bane struggling to lift Nadd's coffin lid while amped by a nexus when Arca Jeth did it while hindered lmao

Hetton dodging. Banes lightning

Bane needing a nexus for nearly all of his force feats

Bane not being able to kill the mighty Johun Othone, or the bumbling oaf Farfalla, who canonically just got in Lsu's way.

Nobody got in Lsu's way. She used both Johun and Farfalla to her advantage when the time called for it.

Lsu herself yelled at Farfalla "Stay back! You'll just get in the way."

Yes Johun later notes "Raskta appeared to thrive off his presence" but that's the thing. She APPEARED to thrive off his presence i.e. that's what it looked like to him, from his POV. POV should not be read as absolute truth.

To be fair to Coleman said single shooter was an expert marksman and arguably the best shot in the galaxy. It's not like he lost to some gun-toting punk.

Coleman shouldn't have even died tbh if he waded through battalions of battle droids and Geo warriors, which would mean he'd have to be deflecting blaster fire from all angles, even if he had help.

That and the fact he had deflected two simultaneous shots from Jango when his attention was on Dooku, yet for some reason couldn't deflect the 3rd which was a longer pause between the previous 2 because......I'm not really seeing any excuse other than plot. So even taking away the previous feat before, him dying doesn't make any sense, if adding it, it makes even less sense.

I'm guessing Arcann's pathetic showing came against the Void/Trooper/Agent? It's honestly one of the most horrendous showings from an elite character in the SW universe.

However, this has plot and game story written all over it. Considering you can play as a trooper, BH, agent or smuggler, all non-sensitives yet immensely skilled, it's not like the outcome against Arcann was going to be changed based on the character class you chose, so yeah. While absolutely pathetic, it mustn't be taken at face-value and it shouldn't be assumed that Arcann would lose against many/any other non-sensitive opponents.

There are showings that come close, those from Maul the clumsy and Caedus the debunked, but none that replicate the exact level of humiliation Arcann slugged through. He wears the crown of disappointment with pride.

Once again, the Outlander was amped by Valkorion so they aren't a non-force sensitive in that fight. They'd already bubbled against Arcann's lightsaber at the start of the fight.

Right, I keep forgetting that detail. How amped, though?

Amped enough to create a bubble he couldn't break through, I guess.
