Malak versus Yoda, Obi-Wan and Anakin

Basically, the same situation as AOTC. But replace Dooku with Malak.

What happens?

So it's not all three at once?

No.

I think Yoda alone is at the very least equal to Malak.

I'd say that Malak wins.

Personally? I think Yoda's overrated. yes, he can flip like a monkey, but when it comes to landing blows he's not worth much. He just hammers at people. Now, Sidious is not that good a duellist. Yet he was able to withstand Yoda, often in small spaces. Dooku didn't even break a sweat and he's friggin' eighty years old.

Meanwhile, Yoda is breathing like he just ran up a slide with grease on his feet.

Yoda is overrated, and Malak stands a good chance to take him down. He has good offensive force powers, he's clever and a good notable fighter, and he's a hell of a lot stronger than anyone Yoda's faced physically. And keep in mind how sick his manual dexterity is- watch his initial saber flourish on KOTOR on the Star Forge. He uses a great lightsaber one handed. Malak is pretty damn deadly.

Janus quote...

Oh no doubt Malak takes Obiwan and Anakin, except Malak isn't on par in saber combat with Dooku, and Yoda is above Dooku, so Yoda is above Malak.

I'd say that Malak is above Dooku and that Dooku is above Yoda in sabre combat. Read Janus' quote, it basically explains what I think.

I wouldn't put Malak above Dooku. You're right Yoda flips around but he remained unmatched in lightsaber combat. And I would put Dooku on the level of I don't know, maybe Revan, maybe Ulic Qel Droma, but he's certainly above Malak, and so is Yoda.

Unmatched? Dooku is able to stalemate Yoda in the fight, and Dooku isn't even perspiring whereas Yoda is gasping for breath.

And why would he be "certainly above Malak"?

When did Yoda ever try to kill Dooku? Yoda is 800 years old, why wouldn't he be tired? Malak was a lightsaber prodigy and so was Dooku, and there's absolutely no evidence that states Malak would take Dooku, so why would he even get a chance with Yoda? Especially if he's not on his trusty SF

There's no evidence to suggest the contrary either...

Dooku is eighty years old. He's nearing the end of his natural life span, just like Yoda. Yet Yoda is gasping for breath and Dooku is relatively unpeturbed...

Unperturbed.. Is that why Dooku runs? Because he "stalemated" Yoda with supposedly no effort? Because the sith don't have the characteristic of being arrogant and overconfident? Right. Anyways Malak and Dooku maybe on par at best, but Yoda is still greater than both of them in force powers and lightsaber combat.

Runs? He's already stalemated Yoda and he knows that the Republic army is on it's way, hence why he goes to his ship.

You've provided no evidence for the contrary and neither do you in any of your posts...

I put Yoda and Sidious above Dooku, but not by much. If Dooku was better than Yoda, he could have killed him at Geonosis and be done with it. Yes, Yoda is breathing like he needs an oxygen tank, but look at their fighting styles. Yoda is using Ataru (Crouching Jedi, Flying Frog) whereas Dooku is using Makashi (minimal energy used in the style).

Of course Yoda is going to be more tired.

Malak is above Dooku, though; Yoda would have a great deal of trouble, and probably be defeated by this one.

AHAH you've yet to provide anything either? Can we say hypocrite?

And Rex, no way is Sidious better than Dooku in lightsaber combat. At best he was better than ROTS Obiwan but Dooku would cut him in half. Dooku was on par with Windu and Windu made him his *****

Have you asked? No.

Dooku had perfected a style dedicated to dueling. He used minimal effort and wasted virtually no effort in fighting. His form made him the best duelist of the PT era.
