Which feats in Canon or Legends are more pathetic?

I sense a suspicious lack of context. mmm

Zenwolf
Like with yours! Anyway Vader wasn't wanting to kill him. He wanted to see if Falco Sang could impress him.

The Ellimist
Nah, there's no context there lol.

Honestly, none.
For someone of near-Revan caliber, somebody above Vader, competing with Plagueis etc... Arcann was terribly pathetic here.

laughing out loud

Ellimist would be in shock.

Zenwolf
Context LeG, Vader was trying to see if Sang could impress him, he wasn't wanting to kill an asset.

quanchi112
Vader is soooooo pathetic.

Someone should find that Maul vs Dog gif. And all the other Maul Fail examples.

MythLord
Yeah, Maul's fails are more severe.

That you ignored the context (that Vader was toying with him) mentioned just a few posts down? Nah, not really.

Zenwolf
Neph I don't see how those last 2 showings are pathetic, when Anakin was hardly even trying and Bane was disarmed in seconds after getting that saber.

Can I cite TCW?

Or would that be considered cheating :hmm

Because Obi-Wan's most pitiful moment has got to be that time he couldn't prevent the suicide of some deathwatch supporter despite not having even started to free fall yet

The frequency these assholes forget they have psychic powers astounds me

"Hardly even trying" is a nice excuse, yet for some reason it was actually a pretty lengthy fight.

And its embarrassing that Obi-Wan was disarmed by him at all. Not to mention that afterwards Obi-Wan gets tasered and Bane may have even been able to finish him off if it weren't for Vos.

Because Anakin wasn't trying....if you watch, Hondo is the one attacking, Anakin is just standing there blocking the attacks for the most part. It isn't until near the end, where Anakin really attacks.

Except Obi-Wan wasn't disarmed...Bane was and I'm just speaking of that scene right there.

And being outmaneuvered by a skilled Jedi hunter is more embarrassing than repeatedly failing to deflect blaster bolts from a single shooter how? That's some Coleman Trebor-level shit, bro.

DarthAnt66
"Trebor defeats countless Geonosian warriors and droid battalions."

mmm

Trocity
Darth Bane getting trashed by mercenaries in his own home.

|King Joker|
Arcann's showing was wayyyyyy more pathetic than that lol

Zenwolf
Edit: Nah actually, King summed it up better.

carthage
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

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

MythLord
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.

Zenwolf
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.

Petrus
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.

Ziggystardust
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.

Nephthys
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.

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

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