If by yes he did you mean he needed to cheapshot Shaak in a desperate move and could only stalemate Kota until the latter got a vision, then yeah I guess he did. He loses, badly. GGWP
Marek was already pushing Kota pretty hard.
Besides, he legitimately beat Vader, so your bs is irrelevant.

You... didn't read the novel, did you?

And Kota was pushing him, as well.

You still don't know when I'm trolling, it's flipping adorable.

She beat them on a DS nexus where her own powers were amplified. Regardless even if she had beaten them on neutral ground that feat wouldn't compare to Galen defeating Vader.
Galen fought through Rebel and Imperial forces and an army of force using Felucians before fighting Kota and Shaak respectively and in regards to his fight with Shaak we know the planet was a Lightaide nexus at the time Galen faced her and that it stifled his connection to the Darkside. Regardless though it matters very little given this was before Galen's prime.

If I remember correctly it was Shaak who in desperation put herself in an indefensible position in the hopes that it would be enough to defeat Marek. She knew he could outlast her and even with the environment aiding her throughout the fight that she wasn't making any headway. Simply because she did not have the combative superiority that would allow her to be capable of pulling off a move she herself committed does not mean that Galen cheap shouted her. It means he drove her to desperation via the advantages he held ( youth and greater force reserves ).
As for the idea you're proposing that a character is not a proficient duelist based off the fact that he hasn't appeared in other works, well... I'll kindly have to beg to differ in that regard.

There's some strong circular reasoning in scaling TFU Shaak Ti down just because.By feats, Galen destroys her.
I wasn't going to bring this up because I didn't want to ruin most of Wolf's wank but since he feels the need to troll my favorite characters I will.
The campaign guide states that a strong native Felucian is powerful enough to tilt the balance of Felucia which is why the shamans have to ensure all Felucians with the ability are trained so that they can resist temptation of the Darkside. I believe it even mentions Maris Brood shifting the balance to the Dark after Shaak's death.
No it doesn't. And if it's the Shaman's mission to tilt it to combat the Dark Side, they failed miserably. Also, you do realize that if any strong Force sensitive can shift the balance of the planet, that only makes Galen look worse? That means either that Galen's own presence in the Force is inferior to Shaak's or that Shaak is fighting on a Dark Side Nexus. Either way, it hypes Ti up even more.
As for the fight itself, Shaak was the one driving back Marek, landing blows on him, TKing him, etc. It's noted they both might've died and Galen was essentially saved by a lucky Force Push that suddenly tilted Ti's lightsaber, and otherwise Marek's musings were that it might've been Shaak's desperation. In the graphic novel, Shaak has TKs Galen, blasts him with kinetite and effectively subdues him via Beast Control without so much as batting an eyelash in what should be a 30 second fight, then Galen cheapshots her via Force Repulse. Either way you spin it: Shaak was the superior in the situation.

Odd how of all the people, you specifically are one to judge on something like that, lol. I don't think I need to bring up you admitting all you do on KMC is troll and your inability to concede leading you to finding cheap excuses to get out of the debates where you're reduced to just grasping at straws, do I?
