Barriss Offee (DS) vs Cal Kestis

All-out

Barriss. Her parity with S5 Ahsoka and ability to contend for a time against S5 Anakin easily puts her above the likes of Cal. Cal's only advantage here is his rare Force Slow ability, but even that has proven mostly ineffective against other lightsaber duelists such as Malicos and the Second Sister.

Barriss wins easily

Competing with late TCW Anakin is more impressive than besting Malicos and the Inquisitors imo, Barriss wins decisively.

Cal closely

Barriss easily

Either way, leaning Cal. Anakin was not trying to kill Barriss or anything. He was serious yet cautious since he needed her alive.

I agree. While both Barriss and Ahsoka were hindered during their fight Anakin wasn't trying to kill her so I don't take it as him trying to go all out. I don't get why people say Anakin was amped through the darkside during that fight.  

Cal has a weaponry advantage and given his showings in growth how he clearly surpassed the SS post Ilum he should be able to at least contend.
