sidious with no saber vs durge with no projectile weapons. durge is pretty unkillable but has never gone up against someone as powerful as sidious. i wonder how effective force lightning would be on a massive nerve cluster.
Durge. While Sidious could use the Force, he can't use if forever, and lightning is uneffective, one ARC used it a lightning weapons on him and he ran right through it like nothing.
Durge... You think 'Durge' would beat Sidious? Need I remind you that Grievous took on Assaj and Durge at the same time and bested them, and you don't think Sidious could take 'Durge'?
No. Sidious with no saber can't fight Durge. What's he gonna do, seduce him and talk him to death? He has no defense against him. Sidious showed he could maybe throw some stuff with the Force, but nothing Durge couldn't emerge from. Durge took a rocket to the face, and internal combustion and lived.
I don't know. Sidious has exceptionally powerful Force powers, just beneath Yoda's own. His Sith Lightning is also very powerful, and like most lightning doesn't melt faces, Sidious's did. I'm not so sure that it is the same lightning we mortals view on Earth.
Anyways. Durge will not be able to overpower Palpatine, since the Dark Lord has the Force on his side. It's safe to assume that the standard Dark Side powers are all at his disposal. He might choke Durge, or blast him with lightning, or chuck a starfighter at him... Lol. If Durge uses projectiles, Sidious will simply blast them back with the Force. Now, laser bolts might become a problem... I dunno.
Sidious has this for sure. He can easily take Durge. It's a common thing here, some character get super-pumped and then after a while becomes considered far to weak; to make up for a period of fanboyism, perhaps, but its really annoying. Sidious could just hold Durge a in the atmosphere and let him burn away.

WHAT? That makes no sense Glentract. How is Sidious going to put Durge into the atmosphere? Seriously, for all we know they're fighting in the Tatooine desert and there's no way ANY Jedi could Force Push someone into the atmosphere.
Jedi can move large amounts of things though. Yoda lifted an X-wing out of a swamp, and I believe Sidious to be stronger in force powers than Yoda. If the same amount of energy that had been used to lift an X-wing out of a swamp, I think someone with a much lesser mass would go very high up.
Even if Durge can't be thrown into the atmosphere, force lightning will kill him. It will take a while, but mixed with force pushes, Durge will slowly be vaporized.
Also, are you saying Tatooine has no atmosphere? It's a habitable planet, it has a thick atmosphere.

Cute.
"I believe Sidious has more Force power than Yoda."
I like this faith-based arguing I see going on at KMC all of a sudden. Not to harp on you Glentract, but it's pretty EVIDENT that Yoda tromps all over Sidious' Force powers. Watch the lightning battle in ROTS. Yoda wins it from a position of disadvantage. He overpowed Sidious.
Though, I will take into question your wording, Ianus. The word 'tromp' makes it seem as if Yoda conquered Sidious with extreme ease. He did not, and that word makes it very suggestive. Yoda was very nearly overpowered during that skirmish on the pod, and only with a renewed sense of determination was he able to finally push Sidious back, along with his lightning.

Yes, but tromp sounds cooler.
If I said "And Yoda, with a grim look of sheer determination, pushed back the wave of Sith energy..." it would be too grandiose. Tromp sounds funny and I get a mental picture of Yoda kicking Sidious in the shin or something every time I type it.
