I’m sure people will say Anakin stomps but I think this is a good fight. Anakin is superior in an overall sense: his ability to overwhelm Dooku when he stopped holding back (which he wouldn’t against Grievous) places his offensive output firmly above Grievous’s, but I don’t think the gap is too massive because Grievous was good enough to hard press Dooku and Kenobi by the end of the war. However, Anakins offensive style is not well suited to Grievous at all: meeting him by going on the attack is very risky, you’re much better off going on the defensive and using counters like Kenobi did which isn’t Anakins preference.

That being said, I would still favour Anakin to win. He’s just better overall, but I think it would be a hard fight for him because he would by trying to meet Grievous’s attack with attack, which would be a sight to behold but not an easy thing to accomplish. It’s the same reason in my opinion why Grievous was able to put Mace under so much pressure. And that’s how I see the fight playing out, except if there isn’t a chance of BFR like Mace did then Grievous would likely get overwhelmed eventually.

In legends it’s probably KFV in a good fight, but in canon they’ve just gone for ‘rule of cool’ and made Vader op and way beyond his past self. So in canon prime Vader should win.

Seems like a mismatch against Sidious here, an argument could be made for Kyp alone. Adding all the others, including powerhouses like Revan, and I don’t see how Sidious stands a chance unless it’s a later version of him. This team is massively superior to Maces team.

Bastila is a funny one to place, she actually has some half decent feats in KOTOR such as holding off Malek for a bit, and this is despite supposedly only being a Padawan (which never made sense to me).

At her theoretical prime as a Jedi master I could definitely imagine her being on Jinns level. Unfortunately we’ve only ever seen her while she’s young, never later in life.

And anyway, the op specifies KOTOR and she just hasn’t shown anything that can challenge Jinn so he definitely wins this.

I don’t understand this order, why is Bumi and Gyatso above Ozai and fusion Unalaq?

OT: Stops at Ozai, they have no answer to lightning spam

Good fight, but Ventress wins. Contending with late war Kenobi and Anakin is better than anything Drallig has done. Unfortunately, Drallig is lacking in feats, and even if we take all his hype at face value, such as Dooku saying he could give Grievous trouble, I still don’t think that would be beyond Ventress. While I’m not the biggest fan of scaling chains, I think it’s also worth noting that Mace didn’t select Drallig as part of his ‘best’ team to take on Sidious, but did choose Fisto, so he must’ve considered Fisto more capable in the field. The same Fisto that Ventress dispatched fairly quickly quite early on in the war. And on top of that Ventress has proven to be a much more capable force user in combat that what we’ve seen from Drallig.

The only saving Grace for Drallig is the game version of his Knightfall duel. If we take that as accurate, then Drallig definitely takes this because Ventress would absolutely not do as well against that version of Anakin. However, it completely contradicts both what is written in the ROTS novel, what is shown in the hologram in the film, and what we hear from sourcebooks about no one being a match for Anakin in the temple. So as far am I’m concerned, that game fight is just an embellishment and should not be taken as ‘canon’ in any continuity.

Ventress wins, ranging from low to high difficulty depending on how accurate you believe his hype to be. Highly doubt it’d be a stomp though.

@frozen: oh absolutely, I’m not saying you’re wrong or invalid. I’m just stating my opinion on Filoni’s content in relation to this thread

TCW (and by extension Filoni content in general) is and always has been wildly inconsistent in scaling, with characters just being as strong as he needs them to be for the plot.

I see this as no exception. I doubt any thought was given to how Barriss handled herself against Anakin when writing her character in this new series.

I’ll be the odd one out and say Yoda here

DE Luke had surpassed Vader, but I don’t think he was particularly close to Sidious before getting a large amp. Sidious beat him pretty comfortably before that, and knocking someone back a bit with a single surprise force push doesn’t discount that.

I’m firmly in the Yoda > Vader camp as far as legends is concerned, and I don’t think DE Luke is enough above Vader to bridge that gap. I can see it being a close fight, but Yoda seems more skilled to me and would overwhelm Luke. His fighting style is also very unique and not something Luke have ever experienced before.
