Per Head-to-Head, Plo can best Talzin - someone who can give TCW Palpatine a legit fight.

Can he do the same to Sheev's canonical inferior?

Wat?

"Master Plo has the strength of mind to resist Mother Talzin's illusions. He casts aside the nightmarish images to see his true target and strikes her down."

I think Plo's Electric Judgement would be a bit too much for him, tbh.

The Ellimist
BTW, wouldn't this count as a what-if, and therefore N-canon anyway?

Vitiate isn't Canon?

So, off-Dathomir?

Even Legends Palpatine was stated to be > any Sith Lord, including Vitiate.

Nah, it was on Talzin's home-turf.

What-ifs aren't canon. So your attempt to justify automatically dismissing sources you don't like on the grounds of not liking them has failed dramatically.

Right but Legends isn't Canon.

Except that was never stated in the book, lmao. As far as I now, it has the C-canon tag.

Still canon to "Legends", I mean shit. You get where I was trying to get at.

It's been stated before the Disney acquisition that what-ifs aren't canon.

Well clearly the Head to Head isn't taking in Legends into account, since it seems to be going by strict Canon and canon characters.

Yeah, the fights themselves are obviously non-canon since they never actually happen in-continuity. That doesn't mean the way they reached the conclusion, the description of the fight, and the stats are just to be discarded.

Ursumeles
So, Talzin loses because she is an even shittier combat than Vitate, against Plo.
Caedus>Plo Koon>Talzin>Vader>ESB Vader

Ok, let me ask you: do you think what-if endings in video games are canon? How about deleted scenes?

I don't see why the power level of characters would vastly increase or decrease, when the alternate endings clearly had the same canon characters in mind when they came up with it, and the exact same events that transpired before the differing turn still happen the same.

For instance - I find Palpatine dismissing Galen in TFU dark side ending to be legitimately valid.
