Explicitly nixed, I'm afraid.Lol @ them refusing to kill him. None of them are that idiotic. And many of the reasons he could have won were "He flat out beats them."
And Scourge's visions showed: "In some the Emperor was no more". So I still wouldn't call if he'd have survived or not.
What do you mean changed up his abilities? In reference to what?
Except that's Scourge's opinion, in the same page Revan says they're stronger than him but I'm not using that as an argument.
Hell why are we even debating this if there's a quote in the novel saying in some he was struck down?
As for them not killing him, they were Jedi. The novel says that Meetra placed more value on their lives than his death, and Revan wanted back to his son. If they could use the emperor as a hostage to escape the capital they would, and the empire would still fall apart to infighting and lack of any leader due to the council being killed.
NB: He didn't have his lightsaber when they all confronted him, Meetra's knocked it out of his hand.
