And what's that highlighted portion supposed to be? Shaak Ti? The reaching you're doing would impress Sonny Liston. But to entertain this notion for moment if that was Shaak Ti what's that raised mass attached to the left side of her body which is coincidentally facing the blast? Christ Zoltan, your debating really is as shit as your trolling.
mmm
Because I didn't even know that the mass in the picture was Shaak Ti to begin with. I didn't bother reading into the rest of your post regarding the specific limbs on the mass, the sentence was only in response to the picture itself and then me trying to piece together what the masses were.
Granted you were right. The mass you were referencing does appear to be Shaak. It doesn't really have any relevancy to the discussion but congrats on being correct about something. I'm sure this must be a proud day for you.
Someone who thinks Valkorion can beat Sidious, let alone Sidious + Vader.
Except, I don't. I recall me very clearly saying I was gonna debate it just because it's something I wanted to do. I'm universally ranked higher than you as a far as debating goes, so lets not write a check your ludicrously inferior skills can't cash, 'kay? 😉

What? No. I'm suggesting he obviously didn't raise his blade and just fvcking keep it there and hold it like that over the course of three words. He would've raised his blade to try and parry each and every attack, which means the final time Galen raised his blade would be when she started to decapitate him. Not after her final strike, but rather during it. Him keeping there for the length it took for Shaak to say three words and tag him twice is actually retarded when in that span of time far inferior Force users have cut through swarms of droids.You're not understanding my argument, DMB. I said he raised his blade as she performed her last strike. The two things happened almost simultaneously. The only difference is Ti would've decapitated Galen, thus forcing him to lower his raised lightsaber and effectively preventing a full on impalement.
As I said, my point isn't that Galen raised his lightsaber after her final attack, but rather that his attack would have been rendered ineffective if he had been decapitated first which was the likely result.
And you're even saying these events were happening simultaneously, and the text is saying Shaak Ti moved into Galen's blade in the desperation of her attack, ie. during her attack.
You're wanking the Jedi's speed as being so ridiculously fast.. yet you're arguing that despite there supposedly being time between Galen rebuking her attack and Shaak impaling herself with pretty much the entirety of the length of Galen's blade, Shaak was unable to pull back from that motion at all, and didn't move her lightsaber from that failed point for another strike. If there was a noticeable period of time between those two things happening, Shaak would've attempted or began to attempt another strike. And if their movements are so fast, then the momentum behind Galen raising his blade and Shaak Ti moving forwards would've had her impaled before Galen's body would've toppled over.

But Galen's little theory revolves around the idea that Shaak had seen him raise his lightsaber before she unleashed her final attack which wouldn't make sense since then Marek would not be reacting to anything so it couldn't be done by reflex.Conversely, the idea that Galen did so while she was attacking -- which is what I'm arguing, BTW -- makes perfect sense, but that still does not mean Ti did it intentionally. That is Galen's musings based on him succeeding in impaling her after she failed to decapitate him.

While I admit that is a possibility, given Shaak Ti's faster and more skilled than Galen, as shown throughout the entire fight, she would have been the one to land the strike first, which would ultimately mean Galen wouldn't successfully impale her(might scar her, but a headless corpse certainly can't hold a lightsaber in place long enough and steady enough to fully pierce her) and she would have won.

Again, Galen seems to think that's a desperation tactic, doesn't mean it actually was. She could have simply overextended, Galen acted on reflex and managed to stop her final attack and impale her.
When Yoda decapitated the clones, it took them almost a second to fall over. If Galen's blade already has momentum raising it and Shaak Ti already has forward momentum, she is going to collide with the blade before Galen falls over or whatever since they were both moving with force augmented speed.

I do think it shows who was in fact the superior throughout the entire fight if Galen would only get a lucky shot-in and Shaak could ravage his body like a rancor and land dozens of blows on him.
Everything in the text suggests that if Galen hadn't TK blocked her strike, they would've both stabbed each other. The text says that Shaak Ti moved into his blade during her final attack, not right afterwards. And for Galen's musings to make any logically coherent sense, Shaak's attack succeeding would've still ended in her death, and Galen's musings are not invalid because Galen has the discipline as a warrior to know if his blade was raised first or if his barrier was raised first.

What does debating skill have anything to do with it? You seem to bring this up all the time when nobody mentioned it. You are almost as narcissistic as Ant 😂

Really? Because it looked like to me that you think your ranking as a debater (which tbh is more outdated than Windows XP) somehow saves you from comebacks.
I reiterate, if you can't take it, don't dish it. Or you can only shit talk if the other side is banned from making a comeback? 🙂
