General Kota is a beast, a hardened and experienced warrior as well as a military genius. He has demonstrated greater proficiency in the Force and lightsaber prowess than Fisto, though, as Lightsnake explained -- Vader implied heavily that Kota is weaker than Shaak Ti and TFU really does run with the power scale. Kota, was, however, capable of deflecting Sith lightning rather casually and emitting powerful telekinesis.
