Luke Skywalker and Kyle Katarn run the Gauntlet together!



Luke Skywalker and Kyle Katarn (as of:Star Wars: Jedi Academy) respectively, are whisked away through space and time to an empty central level of the Coruscant Jedi Temple.

There, they will be presented with 10 sets of opponants they must try to defeat.

In between each set, they will have 30 minutes of rest and relaxation in a Bacta Tank. Then they suit up and ready themselves for the next challenge.

How far do the Jedi Masters get?



1. OT Vader and Jerec

2. Darth Maul and General Grevious

3. AotC Obi-wan and Anakin

4. RotS Obi-wan and Anakin

5. RoT Darth Bane and Zannah

6. RotS Sidious

7. DE Sidious

(They now get to rest in Bacta Tanks for a month/get out and exercise and meditate, and then get ready for another round)

8.

Suddenly the Temple is quiet - and then the 501st Clone Legion (Vader's Fist) appears outside the Temple and makes their way inside to kill the Jedi.
Can they stop the Clone Legion?



9. Darth Nihilus

10. Hormone-crazed Jan and Mara stick out tongue


Setting:

I say they maybe get stopped at 7, if not 8.

If DE Sid's is all he's cracked up to be, he can handle a JA version of this duo.

But they probably get shot and bombed to death by the Legion.

4 would be challenging. It would be almost mirroring. Both Obi-Wan and Kyle are great at unarmed combat as well as lightsabers.

JA is four years post DE, so, if Luke is out of practice, then they might lose against 5 and 7.
8 is not a problem. Temple is huge, lots of corridors and ways around.
And of course I have serious doubts about them winning number 10. big grin

The order of this gauntlet seems odd, surely you need to swap no.1 and no. 3 around.

Regardless, they would have a difficult time at no. 5 and lose at no.7. Luke only beat DE Sidious with help of Leia, who has a much higher potential than Kyle, whether she is a trained Jedi or not.

No, Kyle is obviously praying and Luke has just shat himself (which is why Kyle is praying).

You're obviously very familiar with Jedi and Sith Lore.

She helped him to cast darkside of and to counter Force Storm. Lightsaber combat was Luke's achievement alone.

And before you start talking about BM or her empowering him here are all the quotes from DE audio book:
quote:
Dark Empire I - BM not mentioned.
Leia observing duel: "Be careful, Luke! The Force is strong.... they’re both moving so fast, I can hardly see them.... I feel waves of power.... the Dark Side and the Light...But...I feel...the Light...is winning!!"

Leia after Force Storm began: "But we can, Luke. We can do it. That’s what the Holocron meant. Let me add my power to yours. "

Dark Empire II:
LUKE: A little. Something about.... "Jedi Battle Meditation." I should study this book. I should study all these books.

Empire's End:
LEIA: This book is important, Han. It teaches the ancient Jedi Battle Meditation techniques. Threepio is helping me translate it.

THREEPIO: Very well. This section tells of a great Jedi Knight named Nomi Sunrider, who learned the art of Battle Meditation during the conflict of...

Conclusion
From audio books it is clear that Lea did not use BM during Luke's duel with Palpatine and utilized Force Harmony (which is not BM either) only after Force storm. Moreover, she started learning BM only in empire's end.

The BM debate gets tiring. It truly does.

Without Leia's help, there is no way that Luke would have been able to defend against the force storm, and DE Sidious has already beaten Luke in a 1v1 lightsaber duel in DE 5: Emperor Reborn.

Force Storm wasn't aimed at Luke, it was aimed at republic fleet outside ship. It can't be used in combat directly as it would kill Sidious as well.
First fight Luke lost because he tried to win with darkside. Second time Luke won because he used lightside, which far more suits his personality. JA Luke is firmly on lightside, which means he nod gonna do the same mistake as in first fight with Sidious.

I would think Post-DE Luke and an experienced Kyle could take down DE Sid's
