Definition of smart ass:
"Someone who makes wisecracks and acts cocky."
Exactly what you are doing.

Well smart ass; I don't open my arguments with chapters of knowledge. I first give hints and then unpack them once the debates further progresses. This is my debating style. Deal with it.

Well smart ass; you surely suck at analyzing stuff.
Do you realize that what that image is indicating? It is indicating Revan's reaction time and speed. Try to look beyond the mirror.

You expect that to constitute evidence of their ability to not get blitzed by someone who laid waste to three of the Order's "most celebrated swordmasters" before Mace Windu "realized what happened" (The Complete Visual Dictionary)? Among them, Saesee Tiin, who is regarded as possessing some of the strongest Force abilities in the order at the time (The Official Fact File #114) and renowned for his telepathic gifts among the Jedi (The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia)? Or Agen Kolar, who held his own against Mace Windu in their sparring matches and curbstomped Quinlan Vos in a manner unlike any but Count Dooku? Or Kit Fisto, who manhandled General Grievous, who holds his own against and/or defeats the likes of Asajj Ventress and Obi-Wan Kenobi, established fighters with a myriad of dueling feats?
Did I said that these Jedi Masters sucked? Did I?
They failed against Sidious because their precognition abilities were not up to standards of Sidious, Yoda and Dooku.
An individual can be a celebrated swordmaster even without precognition. However, Force-wielders are gifted with this ability.
Now you want me to explain what precognition means?
I have clearly provided examples of Revan's precognitive abilities in action but your dumb brain failed to comprehend what I just presented. And you dare taunt me about being the worst debater in KMC.
Still, the slight stumble gave Revan enough time to draw his lightsaber and go on the offensive. He came in with a high, overhand chop—an obvious feint meant to draw the defenses of his opponent upward, leaving his legs exposed to a quick follow-up strike.
The guard recognized the familiar ploy, countering it by parrying the overhand chop then quickly dropping his blade low to intercept the inevitable slash at his legs.Only Revan didn't go for his legs. Anticipating that his opponent’s defenses would go low, he kept his blade up high, allowing him to end the battle with a horizontal cut across the man’s suddenly exposed throat.
What does this information is telling you?
It clearly indicates Revan's precognition abilities in action. Revan cut down an Imperial Guard in few steps; read about Empire Imperial Guard here: http://www.swtor-spy.com/codex/the-imperial-guard/1134/
These guys were (not surprisingly) giving tough time to Meetra Surik and Scourge; both of whom were exceptional in lightsaber combat arts as well. Their are lot of hints about Scourge's proficiency in lightsaber combat arts in the Revan Novel specially. According to SWTOR codex entry; Scourge alone have killed hundreds of Force-wielders.
And yet, Revan cut down an Imperial Guard in few steps; a game that ended in seconds.
Apart from this Revan have fought through whole armies and even singlehandedly dealt with gigantic droids and vice versa. Try to comprehend his precognitive abilities which even Echani admired.

I'm not saying Revan couldn't defeat the trio or that Malgus will necessarily be blitzed, I'm saying you haven't provided a single shred of evidence to make me believe otherwise. Revan considering himself the Jedi's champion is ultimately irrelevant: Mace Windu and Obi-Wan regard the trio who died at Sidious's hands as some of the best fighters the Order ever produced.
I have provided information that can help any reader understand about precognitive abilities and reaction time of Revan and also provided information which brings Malgus' abilities to light. I don't know what kind of information you are looking for but you are stuck to your imagination that since Sidious killed 3 renowned Jedi Masters; their is nothing that suggests that Revan and Malgus will do better then these 3 Jedi Masters.
Just because Sidious managed to blitz those 3 Jedi Masters; doesn't proves that he will be able to blitz the likes of Revan and Malgus. Both of these characters have far bigger accomplishments to their name then those 3 Jedi Masters that you cited.
It is better for you to exercise ambiquity in this case if you cannot find satisfactory answers instead of assuming that since Sidious blitzed those 3 Jedi Masters; Revan and Malgus fall in the same category.

Essentially, you come before me with pennies and mistake it for a fortune. Try harder. What you're doing isn't analysis, it's bullshit. You make broader leaps more frequently than any Force user we've seen.
I don't feel the need to prove anything to you when all you can do is pretend to be smart ass and ignore any explanations that may help us move forward in a debate. Good luck with your PT/OT worshipping.

Their faith in OT/PT worshippers like you is also misplaced.
