Why isn't Bane's "strongest" accolades taken seriously?

When it comes to most Sith, most of us fans are fine with accepting it with one restriction that it refers to "up to their times." However Bane does not get this luxury. Why is that? Lack of feats? DOE Bane said he was stronger than any past incarnation IIRC, which would include his amped incarnations. This would mean Bane at his height can kill entire worlds and would fit with Cognus's vision of his power. This would also fit with the power-scalin g of the R02 with Palpatine culminating as the strongest Sith, what with Darth Tenebrous's master capable of popping Galactic wide nexus of Light side energies and Plagueis's and Palpatine's ability to shift the Force itself to the Dark side. Thoughts?

Bane has never been implied to be a planet killer, and I doubt the most knowledgeable Sith Lord up into his time would be useless in sorcery.

it's a junk accolade, one of which the writer himself conceded to excluding certain Sith frol the quote. It's worth about the same as that one claiming/implying Caedus v Darth Revan v Darth Sidious would be a great match up

Didn't Force and Destiny state Bane was stronger than all Sith before him>

no

Yeah, I doubt it. Pretty sure the entire plot of DoE was put into motion because Bane knew he was atrophying, which triggered the fear that Zannah intended to exploit a loophole in the RoT via waiting him out.

Because he is weak and laem.

Because DMB doesn't does his job.

Lol get on hangouts and get ready to be surprised!

He's nothing special. The only thing he did was make it possible for a glorious character like Papa Palpatine to be important.

It's sad to see discipline degenated in Germany.

Could this be to what you are referring?

Yep, but Ant debunked it pretty soundly a while back.

I don't believe he ever posted it publicly, this went down on some long lost chatroom.

The short version is that the insider is shady as hell, though. The folks who wrote it basically confirmed they had no f*cking clue what they were doing when Ant contact them. It's actually supposed to be canon rather than legends, by the way.

👆 They thought the Darth Bane trilogy was still Canon (but oddly knew that SWTOR was Legends).

The quote really just means Darth Bane's the greatest ancient Sith Lord in Canon, but we knew that from TCW.

Note that I don't think the Fact Files go through the same fact-checking that USA sources go either.

Ridiculous, the entire article is solely based on Legends material, yeah of course it's canon.
