Zannah has nothing to do but stall here.
Indeed you are wrong.
Surik doesn't have more skill. Zannah's Soresu is one of the best in the mythos, if not the best, and impenetrable to Surik. And she falls utterly short in physical feats. Lol @ you suggesting she is the superior here. Does Surik even have physical feats? And precognition isn't helping her here. Zannah is a defensive fighter. You don't need precog to predict her moves.
Stall against what? Surik has nothing that can beat Zannah. She's slower, weaker, less powerful and ultimately an inferior duelist.

Soresu is not the infallible one beats all form you insist it is, Zannah herself was dead if Sarro Xaj could duel her uninterrupted, Surik is a much more skilled and experienced combatant than Sarro Xaj.
Surik has fought through Storm Beasts on a planet completely unstable and covered in toxic gas before cutting her way through the most elite Sith the Triumvirate had on a Dark Side nexus.
That is itself before dominating Darth Sion, a top warrior of Kun's Brotherhood completely in the heart of the Academy and after this killing Darth Traya, one of the most powerful Sith Lords in the mythos. She was severely ill, physically and mentally the entire time to boot.
After this she journeyed to Nathema and was actively fighting the void for weeks, which required immense mental and physical strength on her part.
Those are greater stamina and endurance feats than anything Zannah can even get close to.
Precognitive ability is useful against any form of opponent, but nice try, I'm sure Force Augmentation if for wannabes to right?
Zannah has nothing skill wise that compares to killing over a hundred amped Sith in combat whilst ill and weak. Nothing on dominating Atris, Darth Sion and Darth Traya in combat. Infact I wouldn't even say that she has anything superior to Surik defeating multiple Imperial Guardsmen.
I had fun hearing that Zannah is one of the greatest in the mythos however.
I have never defended anyone besides myself and only called you out for your constant personal attacks against numerous other users here, be them either direct or passive attacks.
I honestly couldn't care less who you think I am, I used to be on this forum a decade ago when debates weren't filled with character trolling. The only person I even recognise here barely posts anymore.
I don't know who you are but I have seen enough to know you accuse plenty of others of random convolutions all the time so I guess I'll just leave you to your PMS episode.

This was before Zannah's peak and doesn't represent her abilities as a full Sith Lord. Also no, Surik isn't much more skilled than Sarro. Or more skilled at all. The dude elevated his fighting skills to the highest and purest levels and was physically larger than even Bane and extremely fast and graceful to boot.
And Zannah's Soresu is almost infallible as stated multiple times in the text. How is Surik gonna get through that, hmm? Paint me a picture. 😉

Malachor would be effecting everyone she fought as well don't forget. Sith and Storm Beasts aren't immune to gravity or Malachor's particular hazards. This is a good feat though. But ultimately nothing comparable to matching Bane blow for blow and him failing to get through her defenses without trickery. Plus this is Meetra Surik, and in her novel appearance she was decidedly mediocre and well below beings on Bane and Zannah's levels.

Lol. She was on there to like, an hour. Tops. 😆

Not really. The Exile had no time restraints on her in the assault on the Trayas Academy. So there's no reason she'd have had to be constantly fighting and couldn't rest the whole time.

And what practical use is it against an opponent who sets up an impassable saber wall? "My Surik Senses are tingling! She's going to..... keep spinning!"

Matching Bane in combat is better than all of that, lol. And eff off, where are you getting a hundred Sith from?

Bane is, and since even he lacked the offensive capabilities of getting through Zannah's defense (and he had an extremely offensive combat style), then Surik has next to no chance. And this is on neutral ground, so there's no environmental factor's for her to take advantage of and even if there were she lacks the ability to capitalise upon them and injure Zannah sufficiently to win.
