If Bane struggled with Kas'im he'd most certainly struggle and be defeated by Dooku, who is not only vastly more powerful than Kas'im but IMO a marginally superior lightsaber duelist.
Don't try to educate me on Darth Bane, ***.
I read all his books, comics, articles, etc. Hard to ignore them seeing emperordmb everyday in chat.
I know his placement. Seemingly you don't, and your bias below proved such.
Though I'll wait for Neph to crush you. Watching that will be delightful.

Bane's attack on Zannah in RoT had Zannah claiming that Bane was moving so fast that he appeared to be wielding a dozen lightsabers at once, a feat that Dooku has utterly unequalled. And Bane became even faster than that in DoE. Grievous striking that many times is ignoring the fact that he has 4 arms so can make quadruple the attacks if he wielded a single lightsaber. The number of lightsabers leads to that figure, not his speed.
Dooku keeping up with Yoda proves that Bane isn't going to blitz or seriously outpace him, but he's not as fast as Bane is.
Actually Bane has turned people to ash with his lightning, turned a drexl into a charred husk while disintegrating 2 riders, disintegrated stone and (I assume) plastic and melted blaster rifles while weakened.
Dooku hit those Force users under their guards. Obviously if someone was unable to block Bane's lightning with a lightsaber or was taken off-guard his lightning would take them out.
No, Bane's best telekinetic feat was disintegrating a dozen technodroids in RoT with a flick of his wrist. He did this multiple times.
Lol.
Bane blocked a half dozen concussion grenades with his force shields in DoE, while his power was being suppressed by the Huntress.

I'd also like to point out that Dooku was holding off Grievous's speed when the General was only using two arms, which would cut his striking speed in half.
Hell, even POD Bane is capable of ten strikes per second, and his speed by the time of DOE is significantly greater.

Number of strikes per second I should say.

Sure. But that only increases the difficulty in defending against him and how many blades you need to trace and respond to. You don't need to actually be capable of blocking twice as many attacks as you would if he was using 2 arms. Just like you don't need to be twice as fast as your opponent if they start dual wielding. It's all about positioning and skill, not speed. If you watch GG and Obi-Wan's fight in RotS, Kenobi straight up avoids a lot of the Generals attacks through superior footwork or blocks multiple strikes with only minimal saber movement.

The argument made by Beniboybling was that Dooku was faster for holding off Grievous's 20 strikes per second. I was merely pointing out that that was in fact something that he never did.

I know. I was preempting Beniboy's response and putting my thoughts about the Greivous feat out in the open. Sorry if it looked like I was railing against you.

That's fine. Bravo on your response to him by the way.

There were other things I felt like replying to, like the concept that Dooku collapsing that scaffold was in any way as impressive as Bane obliterating the Lehon temple or the idea that Dooku can tk pwn Ventress even though he obviously can't in a real fight, but I wanna keep it light.
Yes that is odd. Was he not aware of Bane's feats in the other two books? It's odd how supposedly I'M the one who's being educated here, yet seemingly the reverse in occurring.
DoE Bane has better accolades, is just as fast, has greater force mastery, and is more skilled and unpredictable than RoT Bane. He also probably has equivalent lightning.
