Kyle Katarn vs Obi-Wan (ROTS)

setting is in the jedi library in coruscant
i say kyle katarn wins

Yea I agree.Obi-wan is no match for the powers dark side of the force and katarn has the advantage of having the powers of both.

I do believe you are right... besides... Obi-Wan isn't that great, as I have seen proven time and time again, so I'm not going to go into the long list of reasons...

umm...he's only been beaten twice, he's pretty good. I think he can take Katarn.

oh yea... just cuz I say so, it must be wrong... I see... well lets revew obi-wan's exploits shall we?
1 he beats Maul by a stroke of luck in that Maul is being cocky
2 he beats Grievous by that his form is practicaly built to defeat him
3 he beats Anikin because Anikin is being angry and cocky
need I say more? If not for his going after Duku in the battle on Geonosis and Anikin protecting his a** in the arena, he would probly be dead...

Umm...no. Because he would actully win, due to a massive amount of experience in comparison to Katarn.

ya and kenobi is very intelligent and he is a master of form 3 so he's pretty much really hard to hit. i don't think that katarn will be able to defeat him in combat.

I hate it when people overestimate NJO characters.

Katarn had, what...ten years of training? At the time of JK, Obi-Wan would kill him. At the time of JO, he might have a bit more trouble, but would still kill him.

Then again, Valley of the Jedi zaps Kyle Katarn into...Super Katarn!

I'm going with Obi-Wan. His skill may not match RotS Anakin, but he's still extremely powerful in the arts of saber combat. Here's a reply for your first standpoints, Magnevus.

1. There's no such thing as luck. Maul was just being sloppy because he thought a padawan had no chance againt him.
2. Well, if Obi-Wan's style was "built" to defeat Grievous, he still defeated Grievous with his mastery of that form. And besides, he killed Grievous with a blaster remember?
3. Anakin was stronger than Obi-Wan and had the potential to beat him. He just made a stupid move.

TWo words -"Force lightning" and katarn wins.YEs anakin did have potential but obi-wan had the obvious advantage since skywalker was his padwan and he knew his moves well.Knowing your opponents moves no matter how powerful he is a important aspect of gaining a key victory

1. He was a inexperienced padawan, now he is one of the best jedi masters in the order and would utterly waste Maul.
2. This is irrelevant. He defeated him didn't he? Anyway, he would pwn him even without that style, one force push made Grievous drop all his lightsabers and run away.
3. No, he defeated Anakin because he was a better duellist. Sure he woulden't have won at that moment if Anakin didn't jump, but he was the one that made Anakin jump. Anakin never broke through Obi-Wan's defence more than he broke through his, I never saw Anakin having an easier time than Obi-Wan.

If not for Desann sparing his life in the beginning of JO, or Mara Jade saving him when he was captured Kyle would probably be dead.

Kyle is very good though, he is able to defeat a person who can stand up to Luke which is pretty impressive. And that is with only some days of re-traning. If this is NJO Kyle he was a grand master of saber combat, and a good force user who used many light side and dark side powers. If this is NJO Kyle I go with him. If this is JA or JO Kyle I go with Obi-Wan.

and i hate when people overestimate movie characters

If you think somebody is overestimating a movie character here then please say why instead of just saying that you hate it.

Personally I have no idea who would win, I have never cared for anything post ROTJ.

If this is NJO Katarn, he wins. DN, he wins for sure. Any time period before NJO he loses.

Depends wat NJO book he is from. unfortuneatley, the thread starter has yet to speicify..
