AtiMaharathis in the war

As per the rule Maharathi would fight Maharathi, Ati Maharathi will fight Atirathi etc.

Now Karna was a Maharathi, yet he wanted to have a dual with Arjun. So was Arjun too only a Maharathi, not a Atirathi? In that case how did he combat Bheeshm? Was Bheeshm too just a Maharathi?

So who were the Ati Maharathis in the war

I think Bheeshma did a counting right before the war...Udyoga Parva ke end mein or Bheeshma Parva ke start mein.

That's when he also calls Karna n Ardha-rathi making the latter retreat.

Dekhna padega...it was a full list there. 😊

Karna was Ardha Rathi?

That's smaller to even a Rathi right? Was he so mediocre? I thought he was a Maharathi while Arjun Bheeshm etc were Ati Maharathi.

If he was only a ArdhRathi then how come he combat a Maharathi Arjun

Bheeshma insulted him as Ardha-rathi, because of his Suta-putra thing. Prowess-wise he was defo a Maha-rathi at least.

I remember only some Rakshas was AtiMaharathi, No human got the title

Was there any AtiMaharathi in Mahabharata?

Don't kill me guys! 🤣

This is from Kaliprasanna Simha version (haven't checked KMG yet).

Arjun was only a Rathi? This is getting further confusing. This means he was inferior to even Uppandavas.

And who is this AtiRathi Drona in Pandavas side

Again of Abhimanyu was a Maharathi how did he combat a Rathi Lakshman and killed him?? Fir to pehle Adharma usne Kiya.

Aside a Marathi can together fight 12 Rathis. Here is it seems all those who killed him were Rathis and there were only 8 of them. Tab to Abhimanyu Vadh Adharma k category me aani hi nhi Chahiye

Meghnath of Ramayana was an AtiMaharathi.

But weren't there any in Mahabharata? I thought at least Bheeshm would be

And Bheema was a Ashtha Rathi while Duty +99 were only Rathis. Doesn't this mean that Bheema shouldn't have had the combat with them? Sabko Adharma se maara usne
