Galen Marek (Starkiller) vs Kyle Katarn

Full canon abilities for both characters.

Kyle has this, imo.

I pick the guy who, the nephew of Luke Skywalker, Darth Cadeus even achknowledges his power.

Galen by this time was more powerful, he beat Vader.

So what if he acknoledged his power? Sidious, stated in numerou sources to be THE most powerful sith of all time, acknoledged Galen Marek...

galen...he came close to killing sidious with his raw force power..

came close to killing Papatine? in the alternate ending he murdered Galen quite easy also if Palpatine wanted to he would of just used force storm on Galen and end it right there.

Kyle wouldn't have stood a chance either...he got beaten by Caedus even with 2 (or 3, although Seha wasn't literally in the heat of the battle) jedi knights on his side, and Sidious > Caedus.

one a side note this belongs in the starwars section.

No. Both characters originate in VG. Its perfectly legal.

Let's not forget the simple fact that Kyle has more force powers than Galen.

Galen beat Vader, and based on both the games and novelizations he's far superior in the Force in terms of feats...

No he didn't. Sidious was barely affected by galens most powerful attack and in the alternate ending he PWNS marek much much easier.

More force powers = jack.

If thats the case mere jedi librarians would be more powerful than mace windu or yoda. Quality > Sheer quantity.

Vaders only force powers are telekinesis, and he would beat(and has beaten) the vast majority of sith and jedi in the mythos save for the few power houses, lets not forget how the ancient sith even built a tomb for vader seeing they had respect to the amount of power he wielded.

And are you kidding? Marek toppled and entire ATAT with utter ease and beat a jedi that friggin ripped a space station apart, lets not forget how he beat vader, the same vader whose TK abilities are beastly enough to tool powerful jedi's with one move and choke people millions of light years away.

the fact is he came closer than anyone else..except yoda, and of course vader - that was the point i was making 😬

and i definitely wouldn't say 'barely'
if vader is 80% sidious, than that probably puts SK around 90%..thats nothing to chuckle at..not to mention sids was tired as all **** afterwards - it was more of a 'barely protected himself in time' than 'barely affected' 😬

in any case, galen still wins..

-Galen has inferior lighsaber training in comparison to Kyle, who has 3 styles to Galen's 1.

-Kyle has superior force speed abilities.

-Kyle possesses force barrier and force healing; two techniques that are impossible for a sith to learn canonically.

-Kyle is allied and has trained with Luke. Luke > everyone in Star Wars.

And he's also fallen to the darkside and came back from it.

Yeah, Kyle has full use of the Dark and Light side of the force, as well as being one of the most skillful lightsaber weilders on the Jedi council.

galen uses a combination of juyo (which encompasses 6 other saber styles) and soresu..on top of that he has the ability to mix with force powers with his saber to produce devastating attacks...kyle cannot do much in the sabers department 😬

considering SK could tag speeding tie fighters out of the air - no, he doesnt.

tell that to sidious, who knew EVERY force technique there ever was 😬
this is however a moot point, as SK's force powers far surpass katarn's...

and? just because he was trained by skywalker doesn't make him godly..just about every jedi in the new jedi order was trained by luke at some point...doesnt mean they could beat SK either...

No.

Mace was far closer to killing palpatine when palpatine actually fought back.

Hell the novel makes it clear that palpatine wanted to let galen beat him and we actually saw what happened when palpatine truly fought back when galen attacked, the answer: galen got owned.

Answer : barely.

Lets see, galens force blast destroyed the entire death star tower and killed every storm trooper in it, palpatine was standing there completely unharmed by the massive blast, so how did he "barely" protect himself when he was completely unharmed?

Hence, barely affected.

And when palpatine truly fought back, he murdered galen with a single blast of lightning and proceeded to crush him with a starship.

Galen = Overrated piece of shit but he still beats katarn.

Oh and link, palpatine has demonstrated far superior and far more destructive force powers(on a cosmic scale) than luke.

As far as force powers and sheer strength goes, palpatine > luke. As a combatant, luke > palpatine.

palpy was faking against windu....wasnt he?

when you put it that way, i concede 😛
though i still reckon if sids hadnt tried to defend himself from the blast he'd be a bit worse off than 'bare affected' 😬

Theres actually a direct quote that says that 'ultimately [starkiller] was no match for the Emperor's power', and if you watch the good-side ending you'll notice that Galen's Uber-kamikazi-wtfpwn attack only barely manages the singe Palpatines robes. 😐

Galen<<<<<Palpatine.

your a post too late 😛
