How in a holistic sense does Bane even remotely stand a chance. I'll tell you the reason people say Bane > Thanaton is simply PT wank, they haven't thought about it because it's just part of the whack scaling. Thanaton gestures GM Luke let alone Bane who would lose badly to Lords in Thanatons powerbase who can create lightning storms and trap him in mind attacks.

Better TK feats and he's a celebrated duelist. Thanaton's achievements come from going from slavery to the Dark Council and owe more to his intelligence than anything. Without time to prepare, I doubt that he can do much to stop Bane.

Young Teneb Kel was able to outfight Exal Kressh - a powerful Force-user with solid feats and abilities under her belt (she could collapse massive structures and much else). He became substantially more powerful afterwards as Darth Thanaton and ONE-SHOTTED the legendary Sith Inquisitor who in turn was in the position to channel raw power of two Force spirits through him at the time - these Force spirits resurrected their host in fact. Darth Thanaton was also extraordinarily gifted in use of Sith Lightning - he could extrapolate his Sith Lightning into a vortex of destructive energies, and the only reason Darth Nox walked out from it was due to six Force spirits shielding him at the time. This is akin to applying cheat codes in a game in order to win.
Darth Bane doesn't compare to all of that TBH. He could not handle Sith Sorcery of Darth Zannah who in turn isn't extraordinary in this domain in view of benchmarks set lately.

I actually read that comic for the first time today. Kressh destroyed the poor guy and he had to resort to sneaky tactics in order to kill her. I think he held his own, but, based on his facial expressions and body language, he was solely on the defense during the whole fight.S_W_LeGenD wrote:Young Teneb Kel was able to outfight Exal Kressh

I concur - Teneb Kel was not on the level of Exal Kressh in sheer strength but there were situations in which he withstood her blows including a column shattering blast of power from her and managed to impale her while under pressure of her Force Choke. The gap wasn't large enough for him to be a non-factor in this fight. He had impressive abilities of his own - he even managed to rearrange lot of debris in the vacuum of space to reach his Starship while completely exposed to its pressures (now this is something you do not see happen often).

What is known is that she summoned dark side tendrils to defeat Darth Bane on Ambria (a world strong in the dark side). However, she was destined to be replaced by another as the Bannite Sith lineage advanced yet further. Therefore, her powers failed her eventually. What more can be said about her? She is no Darth Nox who could cheat death with his Sith Sorcery even if dropped dead by another.

It is still a pretty good support for Teneb though, as he did get a couple of good shots in their duel.S_W_LeGenD wrote:I concur - Teneb Kel was not on the level of Exal Kressh in sheer strength but there were situations in which he withstood her blows including a column shattering blast of power from her and managed to impale her while under pressure of her Force Choke.

True, we never do get to see much of her Sith Sorcery in play, but that isn't to display she isn't good or remarkable at it. We truly don't know what went down with Zannah vs Cognus. If you don't recall, the apprentice and master do not always have a formal duel. For example, Plagueis crushed Tenebrous with a rock when he was distracted with protecting his ship. Though you are accurate that Zannah, if they were to ever duel, was defeated by Cognus, if anything, that supports the power of Cognus and does not cheapen Zannah's abilities.S_W_LeGenD wrote:What is known is that she summoned dark side tendrils to defeat Darth Bane on Ambria (a world strong in the dark side).

Forgot to say, credit where it's due: the OP found a character that Bane can actually beat.

Sorry. I'll make an exception for Nihilus but he's canonically below Malak.

Yes he is, a couple of blurbs say so and blurbs "accurately reflect the product" albeit probably a lower level of canon however that was clearly the intention, also a number of quotes support this, and bane literally absorbed all of Revan, and Nadds Holocrons, so he will obviously be above those
