Oh yes, that reminds me another thing- Opress shoved the ship. Cade threw it, fast enough to be used as a projectile and a good distance.

That's a lot more kinetic energy than a simple lift or shove.


Sure, but is the ship bigger than the one Savage shoved?

Once Krayt becomes Krayt, no-one has ever gotten the upper hand, pushed him back, or whatever in a lightsaber duel, period.

Krayt has never met anyone as skilled as Dooku, has he?

And he's got the experience for him, and we know his base level as A'Sharad was good before he got two major, major upgrades.

A'Sharad Hett wasn't good in comparison to Dooku.

Based on Wyyrlok overcoming a Dark Lord of great power easily.

You're not giving any reasons.

Based on Cade being a Skywalker with big force feats who gets continually better with a saber as time goes on, based on him being surrounded by people with dozens of Jedi/Sith kills and being noticeably stronger than them.

Okay, so Cade has thrown a ship and is stronger than characters with lots of kills.

No.

Hett was closer to Obi-Wan at his best and most serious than Ventress was to him by the end of the war.

Prove that Obi-Wan was at his best when he fought A'Sharad Hett, especially since, by the time of ANH, Obi-Wan's skill has downgraded extremely.

Exactly, even if you hear about someone trashing a powerful Dark Lord of the Old Empire, you just say it doesn't seem so in vague terms.

In terms of abilities shown, Krayt's got more, and some of the others of the era are very impressive too, but by using the word 'seem' you get around acknowledging them.

His experience is why he's more skilled.

Right, and Krayt is more skilled than Sidious?

I think you're missing the argument.

Dooku > Anakin in skill due to his experience, but Anakin was >> Dooku in power.

You used the Anakin vs Dooku fight as an example of how more experience doesn't mean a win.

Except where Anakin was able to counter experience with power, Dooku is <= Krayt in power, he's got no edge there and probably a disadvantage.

If Krayt has the experience edge, and isn't disadvantaged in power, what area is Dooku supposed to be making up in the edge with?
I have seen nothing that implies Krayt is more powerful than Dooku.

[B]Yea, 'moved,' not 'thrown far to hit someone.'


And Dooku ended his support with the flick of a wrist.

Savage couldn't do the ship throw, the 'protect against a giant explosion,' nor could he do what Talon did.

I don't see why Savage wouldn't be able to do what Talon did.

Cade's TK is much above Savage (heck, Talon's TK is above Savage, so you've got a whole Savage < Talon < Cade < Krayt chain of superiority going on here), so throwing Savage around to try and boost Dooku doesn't fly, the TK feats in legacy are the bigger and more impressive.

Disagreed.

You are wasting your time.

You want to debate with a guy who is making assertions such as these:

"Prove that Obi-Wan was at his best when he fought A'Sharad Hett, especially since, by the time of ANH, Obi-Wan's skill has downgraded extremely."

???

As a reminder;

Obi-Wan (OT) fought well against Vader (OT) onboard Death Star.

I wouldn't take that quote seriously. Their are ample hints in other canonical sources which contradict this statement.

Important thing is to focus on "release dates" of sources.

Such as?

Let me remind you that Lucas has said that we don't see a Jedi fight at their peak in the OT.

I'll try to find it.

Vader being able to hold his own against Galen/Starkiller?

I don't think that Galen/Starkiller is weaker then Anakin Skywalker.

Want more hints?

EDIT: Timing of statements and sources should be take in to consideration. Ideas change with passage of time; people change with passage of time. It is ill-advised to be static in these cases.

What you ''think'' isn't equivalent of facts.

I-R-O-N-Y

Seriously?

You understand how powerful Galen/Starkiller is?

Powerful enough to get smacked by Shaak Ti?

Your opinion doesn't outweigh fact.

Shaak Ti fought Anakin and outsmarted him in the Jedi Temple, and became much more powerful afterwards.

Outsmarted? She was no match and the Temple is a light side nexus.

"No match" is a claim; she fought Vader in the Jedi Temple and created circumstances with which he made it out alive; this is ample proof of her not being a pushover or to be underestimated. Also, nexuses do not negatively influence the combat ability of any Force-user.

Later on, Shaak Ti was considerably stronger or more learned in the ways of the Force when she confronted Galen.

A sourcebook says she was no match. I posted the picture in the Maul vs Shaak Ti thread, you saw it yourself.

It was referring to the blademaster?

I'll post it.

If she is no match for Anakin, how did she made out alive?

She escaped?
