NJO Luke Skywalker vs. Tulak Hord

Oww, that's going to leave a mark...

I'll give it to Luke, but damn he's going to take some punches

Luke

Does anyone know what Tulak looks like?

Ugly, if memory serves me correct.

Any Pics?

No clue on that one, but he was likely red as a tomato like all the other true blooded Sith. He was the only Sith lord buried on Korriban to be lord after the discovery of lightsabers.

And to be bloody honest, he was never defeated. Luke, however much he is badass, doesn't have that record. And his competition is much less. While I respect NJO Luke for being an ideal Jedi who can whup ass and take names, he bites the sizzling edge of a saber in this one.

Dude, no he doesn't. If they were to fight Luke would win. Fact is, the force works to destroy evil, and Hord is evil. Take the most powerful Jedi ever and make them fight and Luke will win. But it would probably be like Obi-Wan style. He would have to be extremely resourceful as opposed to just overpowering him.
It's kinda like he inherited that from Obi-Wan...

We're not talking about the will of the Force here, dude. We're talking about winning a fight that would never happen anyways. And the facts support Tulak, not Luke.

The fact is Luke is connected to the force more than anyone save for Anakin or Leia, he can draw more power from it and smite some evil hookers

How the hell do you figure that? Anakin was defeated wasn't he? A connetion to the force means nothing if you face superior opponents...

Luke would die here, Tulak didn't become the best duelist ever in a time when many of them were walking around without a damn good reason.

anakin was defeated because he fought with rage and was not level headed
Luke has the mentality of say Yoda or Obi-Wan, but the talent that Anakin had, no one can stop NJO Luke

Tobad he doesn't have the experience... And Tulak had to be very calm in a fight because he always won. He had skills

tulak gets manhandled

earlier Janus said we weren't talking about the will of the force, when a skywalker is there, we're always talking about the will of the force

By throwing around the will of the Force, you're trying to use a blatant plot device. In a theoretical fight, blatant plot devices shouldn't be relevant.

Indeed besides who says the will of the force would want Luke to win? Maybe the force fell in love with Tulak

in a fight of an EU character vs. a movie character every aspect of the movie or EU should be considered

You're right, but this isn't a skill, ability, or attribute of Luke's. The will of the Force is a story bit and isn't relevant since this isn't a fight that will occur in the story.

Okay... So he's liked by the force that doesn't make him all powerful and unless the force actually tells him. "I like you." i'm not inclinded to believe that. Luke wasn't all powerful and he didn't have the experience fighting against Jedi and Sith that Tulak did.

I'm not saying he can't win, i'm saying he is going to have an incredibly hard time and i don't think he will win. Tulak was incredibly good, never lost. Never even got hit. I don't care how good Luke is, he's not going to stand a chance against somebody who has fought countless of Jedi and Sith his entire life.
