He was completely unprepared in that fight; he didn't know even what the **** was going. It is assumed that in a versus thread every opponent knows who/what he/she is facing. It's not like Vitiate thinks he's fighting only Revan and isn't aware of HoT's participation in the battle.
And once the actual fight has begun and Vitiate knows who he's fighting, I seriously doubt he'd lower his guard foolishly by focusing on one opponent only while leaving the other completely alone.
He is completely unprepared in this one as well, Revan charges him and meets him in a Force battle then HoT closes the gap and engages him. As soon as sabers are drawn it's over for Vitiate.
In the Revan novel fight which this versus thread is alluding to we see that Vitiate engages Revan and both T3-M4 & Surik nearly kill him because he is tunnel visioning on the most powerful there.

He can't handle all of those enemies at once. He has displayed a severe lack of precognition and laughable tunnel vision in his fights. Only when he has been able to prepare sufficiently has he taken down multiple opponents I.E HoT, Tol Braga and Co.A full power HoT and Revan can certainly defeat him via discrations, just as Meetra Surik have done.
1) Vitiate didn't have prep against the jedi strike team.
2) You're taking PIS too seriously against the character to lowball him. What about ROTJ Vader & Sidious vs ROTJ Luke? Luke gets tortured by him and Vader changes side and throws Sidious down the reactor shaft and kills himself in the process. So Luke wins. Is this a logical argument to you?
There's no way Vitiate would ever ignore the Hero, his "most hated enemy" who he knows is prophecised to kill him, or Revan the guy who personally pissed him off and challenged him directly and resisted him for 300 years. Or Scourge who personally betrayed him and lied to his face for centuries. He ignored T3 because its a freaking astro-droid and utterly beneath his attention and he wasn't aware Meetra was free to attack him.

Yes he did, Scourge fought an entire battle beforehand. No it wouldn't be logical, however ignoring that Vitiate has a bad track record against multiple opponents even when prepared would be just as illogical.
So you literally have no proof and are simply saying that having the time to prep = having prep. Why don't you apply that logic in different cases? Every time one side expects the other, does it mean that they have prep? Absolutely not.
LMAO on the contrary, Vitiate is perfect against multiple opponents. The most powerful attack he has displayed so far is an areal attack. Try again.
That bad track record you are talking about is pure PIS and I've given you examples of similar cases but again you don't apply the same logic to them for some reason.
Still, not being aware of Meetra is imo a mistake on Karpy's part (like so many he's committed). There's no way a Sith of his caliber wouldn't be aware of everything during a battle.
Anyway, yes. There's also no way he ignores or becomes unaware of Revan or HoT, mostly because he has a history with both of them.
