To be honest, Surik's performance against Imperial Guard is what actually convinced me to acknowledge her as being exceptionally skilled in martial aspects of combat including lightsaber dueling arts, better then majority of the Jedi including some hyped master swordsmen.A lone Imperial Guard individual can handle a Jedi but Surik managed to handle two singlehandedly which is VERY GOOD display of power and skill in combat for a single Jedi.
Surik is really under-appreciated as a master swordsman. She would defeat many capable warriors with just her martial skills.
Indeed.
However it's still not what she'd pull off at prime, she'd be even better given her wound.
It's not like she gained skill travelling to Kaas, but she lost skill when she lost her wound.

KoTOR II revealed that Surik was quick to learn and hone her skills in lightsaber dueling arts, SWTOR (Revan) actually affirmed her mastery in lightsaber dueling arts and/or martial skills in general. Surik's martial skills were unlikely to degrade after she healed.
Nonetheless, Surik have solid combat history.
Ahh but Legend, the wound allowed her to feed off an enemies Knowledge, she could replicate styles to absolute Mastery due to her wounds.
The insight that wound allowed her into enemy fighting styles and attacks terrified even the most stalwart of Jedi.
Side Note: Would people want a Surik Respect thread that viewed TSLRCM as Sources or not? Definitely doing the DS route as to how it elaborates on wounds, but curious about TSLRCM.

Ewww that Satele is > Surik in whole, and Revan > Yoda, but other than that decent lists Legend.I'm impressed.
All variables have been considered in the rankings; victories; feats; official hype and other useful data.
Yoda have significant hype, immense power, and some very impressive feats, but he somehow lacks as a combatant. Perhaps his mindset is a problem.
Shan have some very impressive feats and significant hype that I could not overlook.
Revan is very impressive on all fronts.
