You posted nothing of relevance in reply, Marek's instinctual cheapshot notwithstanding Ti vastly outperformed Tano in her own engagement.
Shaak Ti attempted a maneuver that would have resulted in both her and Galen's deaths. Usually when a combatant is vastly superior to their opponent they don't attempt suicide moves, but that's just me. I'll stick with believing the better feats are Ahsoka fighting evenly with Maul and holding her own against Darth Vader, thanks.
She was beating Marek in all three depictions of the fight, she tanked his lightning with Tutaminis in one, ragdolled him with Kinetite in another and in the third he could barely keep track of her movements.
Tano held her own against Maul in a short engagement and was fighting a losing retreat against Vader, congratulations. Impressive but not really comparable to be honest.
Originally posted by AncientPowerI don't recall Ti beating Galen in the game. He kind of shat on her. She was calling upon the native Felucians to aid her and Galen still defeated her. In the novel Galen and Ti's fight was quite close, and in the graphic novel Galen mortally wounded her via Force repulse while constrained by the Sarlacc. And with all Ti's environmental advantages, Marek still overpowered her in the game and the comic, and in the novel her final assault was described as desperate. Shaak Ti being easily Marek's superior is kind of unfounded. Also, can you tell me why holding an edge over Felucia!Galen with the blade is better than dueling evenly with Maul and holding out against Vader? Galen doesn't have much in the way of lightsaber accomplishments at that point, so I don't understand why it's such a wanked feat. Ahsoka held out against more impressive duelists such as Maul and Vader, which I find noticeably more impressive.

Originally posted by AncientPowerOkay, but none of that proves a large disparity in ability between them, when: Galen was fighting off native Felucians while dueling Ti simultaneously, mortally wounded Ti with Force repulse (in the graphic novel) and lightning (in the game), and used the Force liberally in the novel via throwing Sarlacc teeth and telekinetically halting Shaak Ti's blade in its place, in addition to Ti's assault being described as desperate and a possible attempt at mutually assured destruction. Shaak Ti's performance against an inferior opponent to both Maul and Vader does not prove superiority over Ahsoka.

Originally posted by AncientPowerAhsoka was fighting evenly with Maul for about a minute IIRC, and fighting a losing battle against Darth Vader (Jesus Christ, how pathetic!) is still better than Shaak's accomplishments.

Yeah, Galen by that point isn't much in terms of saber skill.
What?
He didn't markedly improve anywhere before facing Vader, that I know of. The only quotes about progression seem to point to him honing power, not growing in it or saber skill. Shaak Ti was like his last trying test before the whole betrayal arc.
Got any quotes for this? I hope you're not referring to the Nar Shaddaa stuff.
Edit: Joker you seem to be insinuating Ahsoka is Galen Marek's equal, is that what you're saying? mmm
Originally posted by SelenialI'm saying Ahsoka is superior to Galen as of his fight with Ti.

Originally posted by SelenialAhsoka is basically an enlightened sage as of Rebels, so that's literally the exact opposite of her mindset. 🙂
Kek at assuming Ahsoka's feeble, rage filled mind could keep Felucia balanced in any way 🙂
