Qui-Gon Jinn runs a Gauntlet

Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn runs a gauntlet of prequel-era Jedi and Sith. How far does the maverick get?

Round 1: Komari Vosa
Round 2: Barriss Offee
Round 3: Aayla Secura
Round 4: Luminara Unduli
Round 5: Quinlan Vos
Round 6: Shaak Ti
Round 7: General Grievous
Round 8: Asajj Ventress
Round 9: Savage Opress
Round 10: Darth Tenebrous

Legends incarnations; the setting is the swamps of Naboo.

Grievous. If he abuses TK, then he stops hard at Ventress.

Clears. He outperformed Savage already and has Hypori!Sheev scaling over Tenebrous. He's actually pretty well disposed to beating Grievous and Ventress too.

Can you extrapolate on this? @ILS

Jinn being the supreme master of the Living Force will allow him not to be thrown off by Grievous' unpredictability and in turn, Grievous is particularly susceptible to attacks that don't follow form or convention. As we saw on Tatooine, Jinn forced Maul to throw out all of his usual strategies because he was anticipating his attacks before he even knew he was making them. Jinn doesn't fight with a plan, he just lets the Force take over.

As for Ventress, she's basically micro-Dooku who Jinn has sparred countless times. He should be able to see through all of her attacks pretty easily.

Stops at Grievous and dies to everyone after Grievous. Grievous isn't a finesse fighter, but his unconventional use of brute force and pressure seals him the victory.

He stops somewhere from 5 onward

For Grievous and Ventress, aren't they operating at a level of augmentation that's beyond Jinn's capabilities to match?

And what did you mean about the Savage comment?

@ILS

No, considering he matched Maul just fine for a while.

Savage got rekt by Maul who is "far more formidable" than him even when his combat skills are sub TPM levels. Jinn did way better.

Stops at 2

Ti should be round 1

Misremembered it slightly but yeah:

Isn't there another quote that says Qui-Gon's relationship with the Living Force is unmatched by other Jedi?

It wouldn't surprise me since that's kind of his thing.

Dies to Vos.

Stops at Ventress,

Aurra Sing scaling.

Stops at 4 or 5

Why is Ventress below Savage, out of curiosity? 

OT: Stops at Ventress.

Since these are Legends incarnation s, I'm going to say he stops at Grievous.
