No, I'm just someone not so easily swayed by worthless feats such as Luke moving so quickly that he might as well have been wielding ten or twenty lightsabers; or destroying a small army of non force sensitive Yuuzhan Vong. In a world where Jedi are described as one man armies (by GL himself), where padawans can move at invisible speeds (Obi-Wan in TPM) and where low rate Sith like Maul can single handedly demolish the most powerful crime syndicate in the Galaxy, feats such as those mentioned really don't mean anything. Not to mention that he was in a force meld with Jacen and Jaina when he does both feats anyway.
Bane on the other hand is able to move at speeds far too great for the eyes of force sensitives to see, so fast that time even appeared to have stopped for them, and was able to absolutely dominate Kas'im in a duel; the same Kas'im who mastered all seven forms and spent years perfecting them, and who was stated as being the greatest technical swordsman at the time, and possibly the greatest ever, and this is a Bane who was yet to grow as powerful as he does in Ro2, and before acquiring the orbalisk armour.
In the force battle, Luke probably has him beat, but hardly by much given Bane' strength in the force and achieved feats.
Noobaris, Luke is the most powerful force user and saber duelist in the SW galaxy. You've been proven wrong on every occasion. Bane isn't anywhere near Luke's level. You lose as usual. Enjoy getting banned.
So is Luke. And in the fight of his life, Bane was very visible to the Jedi he was fighting. And his apprentice's
The same Kas'im who feigned a weakness till he could play his trump card?
Against the undisputed greatest ever?
How does he grow more powerful in RoT? And should Luke just zap the orbalisks with the Electric judgment, ending the fight immediately
Bane's head is wide open, too.
Far faster than the eyes of a force user could follow? A force user of Kas'im's calibre? Where exactly is this stated or shown?
This is, at best, an unsupported assumption.
LMAO. I'll concede every argument I've ever made if you can point out where this is ever stated or shown.
As an overall swordsman (including force ability and physical attributes as well as technique)? Not only completely unsupported, but unsupportable when using canon evidence. Purely technical ability? Laughable given Luke's mostly self trained and was only ever properly trained in a rushed manner at numerous different points of time.
After going to Dxun, and uncovering "astonishing new knowledge and power -- power that will altere[d] him in ways he could never have imagined..."
Right. I forgot that Bane no longer had the ability to block lightning with his saber. My bad.
Didn't say it wasn't, but it's a minuscule target in comparison to Luke's entire body, and means that Bane can nearly fully focus on his offense.
Hardly. There's no feat of Luke's that "drawfs" the way in which Bane simply absorbs the BoD Masters' lightning (was powerful enough to consume "anything and everything in its path" and would have eventually destroyed Ruusan if the Sith lords kept the ritual going, keeps full control over it, and directs it onto the Forest World that is Ruusan. Nor is Luke ever depicted to have strength in the force on the level of Bane's: the same level of force strength that far eclipsed the entire BoD's.
Ok big guy. You want the support to end? Defeat one of my arguments. I'll quit supporting Bane as soon you prove me wrong on anything. Hey, I'll even let you read through my post count and pick the most easily refutable thing I've ever said. Come on big boy, let's do this.
Given that the era was the most warlike that there's ever been shown in SW canon, it would be silly to think that the Brotherhood was anything but a relatively powerful order of force users, and even if that wasn't the case, the sheer number (hundreds) of force users within the Order would suggest that Bane's strength in the force - being far greater than that of the order in question - would be titanic.

See below.
Bane > Sidious.
All of canon has disproven this statement. There are many, mnay sources saying that Sidious was greater than any other Sith in history. This means you are wrong, and I proved it. Now that that's done with, stop your Bane fanboyism, or if you can't give it up don't sully the internet with it.
