The BattleZone! Round 1 Match 6: Revan Reborn vs. Exar Kun

I've decided to revive the BattleZone tournament that I had originally started some months ago, this battle pitting the man who was both Sith and Jedi vs. One of the greatest Ancient Sith Masters. For those who need to remember how the previous matches went:

Darth Talon vs. Asajj Ventress: Ventress

Darth Traya vs. Obi Wan Kenobi: Darth Traya

Darth Thanaton vs. Darth Wyyrlok: Darth Thanaton

Count Dooku vs. Emperor's Wrath II: Count Dooku

Satele Shan vs. Galen Marek: Galen Marek

And now, for the combatants:

vs:

Terrain:

Really hard one.

Revan. Even discounting the two quotes he has implying superiority over Exar Kun even as of the Mandalorian Wars, he will still win.
His battle precognition is the ideal counter to Exar Kun's unorthodox lightsaber, and without a nexus, Exar Kun is clearly not superior in Force powers either.

Exar Kun

Arguments are taken into account moreso than raw votes, FYI.

Will do when I get off of work.

I still find that system lame.
Spoiler:
Though I'll allow it for this duel.

Also lol @ bringing up Kun's need for a nexus for his gauntlets, there is no quote stating unequivocally that the temple boosted his blasts. Not that he needs his blasts to smash Revan into the ground like Vodo

You do realize you have been bested in that argument by myself, Intrepid37, and NewGuy01 at least 3 times each?

Couldn't you say that for.....alot of nexuses boosting one's power? 😕

Though, since this battle will be decided by the nexus argument, allow myself some time to gather my sources.

Holy ****! You have spammed the ****ing nexus argument at every chance you got for characters you hated. But when it comes to Kun it's somehow a faulty argument?

You failed to provide the quote stating he depended on it for his gauntlets. Whereas, I provided Janus's scan where it stated that the source of his blasts power came from his rage and not Yavin. All Newguy did was rehash his own opinion, and all you did was do the same i,e not provide evidence for your claim. Also I never stated that the nexus wasnt involved, it clearly overpowered his blasts hence why he stated he couldnt control them

No I actually defended Banes TK when he was lifting the stone on Lehon as well. I can pm you the quotes if i need to. This was a secondary discussion in your nexus speculation thread when I was commenting on a post Newguy made, not the Revan vs Kun thread on sWF

Looking forward to the discussion btw 👆

As am I. This is a versus match in particular that vexes me.

It will merely be a slaughter, then you trolling, as always.

Jedi Master Gnost Dural: "The Order has long considered Yavin 4 to be an extremely dangerous planet where the dark side is strong, and a place Jedi should avoid at all costs. The evidence of those who have visited Yavin 4 in the past supports this. The dark Jedi Exar Kun visited the planet, and though he was already long past redemption by the time he visited Yavin, evidence suggests that his visit there deepened his connection with the dark side of the Force."

However Gnost also states that Kun achieved "unparalleled" lightsaber proficiency. He'll beat Revan in sabers.

I'll give it to Kun even though his force doesn't stack up because nearly every duel between equally skilled combatants turns into a lightsaber duel.

Exar Kun in his time was > Vitiate in power, this is enforced in both Tales of the JedI and Star Wars The Old Republic Encyclopedia. Which IMO puts him well above Revan.

The Ancient Sith considered him the true hier to the Golden Age, instead of Vitiate.

As far as Force feats go, Kun can:

-Freeze Lightsabers.

-Offensively Essence Transfer an opponent.

-Force Blast.

-Force Rage to 100,000 times his normal strength.

-Has created Sithspawn including Leviathans and Terentateks as well as the Golden Globe, a variant of Thought Bomb.

-Dark Heal.

-Mass Stun the Senate.

-Absorb Sorcery attacks.

-Force Corrupt.

-Crushed a holocron with his bare hand.

-Penetrate Obsidian temples.

-Easily TK Jedi Masters.

Lightsaber feats:

-Bossed Vodo twice in two different ways, despite Vodo having centuries of experience and being called one of the best Guardians in the history of OR era.

-The absolute master Niman practitioner of all time.

-Was the apparent measuring stick for Sith Warriors in the Sith Empire, not Malgus, Marr, Revan, Malak, Hord or any other.

Again all just off the top of my head.

I've played through Korriban a few times as a SW and don't recall of Kun being mentioned. You have a screencap or a video?
