So one assumption I keep noticing is that since MX is the latest incarnation of Xehanort and was such a BAMF in BBS, he'll be the most powerful of the 13 in the upcoming game.
I mean don't get me wrong, the guy clearly overpowered TAV in BBS.
But was that really Xehanort at HIS BEST? Was that really when he was strongest? When he was desperate for a new body instead of his "old and brittle vessel" (probably was about 70)?
If MX is using time travel to gather 13 versions of himself, wouldn't it make sense to have one of them be Master Xehanort at the height of his power?
This is what I would want to see. A version more powerful than Young Xehanort, but strong enough to give Sora and Riku trouble like they've never had before. A true Dragon trope, if you will.
In-game fights only show so much, but when you compare this fight...

...it seems like Xehanort was long past his peak by the events of Birth By Sleep.
Is it safe to say No Heart is Master Xehanort at his best? Will he be one of the 13 darknesses?
Would this version of Xehanort, in fact, attempt to usurp his elderly self?
What do you guys think?
