What would versus debating be like if:

TCW and related/subsequent material never happened

Disney never bought Lucasfilms and instituted the Legends policy

No SF Malak quote

No Sidious supremacy quotes

No successively more powerful Banite scaling quotes

The Bane trilogy was never written

if we take RPG stats to be serious representations of character power per Chee

foggy window applies to all material making everything subjective

Questions:

What concepts go out the window?
What characters get buffed?
What characters get destroyed?
What is your new top 10 Sith/Jedi/Beings?

feel free to add more to the list or more questions u rabid animals

Kunahu akbar

I bet the following get destroyed:

-Sidious tiers ragdolling/speedblitzing/teambusting gets severely neutered or even erased

-Plagueis and Tenebrous go below Bane

-Exar Kun might be MVP Sith

-Anakin Skywalker gets totally shitcanned

-Malak returns to the shitheap

Valkorion becomes MVP 🙂

Gap between Sidious/Yoda and Dooku/Maul severely close.

We don't really use Legends policy anyway.

No SF Malak quote

Kun might be ~ peak Revan, Krayt, etc.

No Sidious supremacy quotes

We figure Sidious is the best anyway, but early Sidious > Valkorion arguments fall apart.

No successively more powerful Banite scaling quotes

Plagueis and early Sidious drop, Valkorion rises.

The Bane trilogy was never written

So we just have Bane of the Sith, Jedi vs Sith comics, etc.? Bane's probably top three most powerful.

Literally everything would change.

Sort of what we do anyway.

TCW and related/subsequent material never happened:
Sidious v Maul/Dooku-tier gap is considered substantially smaller by most of the reasonable people. By proxy, Windu becomes less insane in his power compared to Maul, Dooku, etc.

Disney never bought Lucasfilms and instituted the Legends policy:
Nothing changes.

No SF Malak quote:
Nobody in their right mind puts Malak as even being a good fight for Kun. Kun remains considered an equal to lower top tier, like Revan, early Anakin, etc.

No Sidious supremacy quotes:
Gid never appears in KMC at all, Sidious rises to supremacy exponentially slower, Valkorion is considered his near-equal among the darksiders by most of the forums.

No successively more powerful Banite scaling quotes:
Tenebrous remains in trash compactor, Azronger never happens.

The Bane trilogy was never written:
Nothing

if we take RPG stats to be serious representations of character power per Chee:
Utter chaos.

If the Bane trilogy is never written, then pre-retcon Bane would never be retconned, and he'd probably be the 2nd most powerful Force user ever without question.
