Is Darth Krayt faster than ROTS Sidious?

Why are we comparing 4 randoms, to some of the greatest swords masters the Jedi Order produced?

'Cause numbers are more important. That's why Kun's TK feat > Vader's.

Imperial Knights are hardcore af. According to Q99, who's the Legacy scholar around here, to become a Knight you have to be equivalent to a Jedi Master. These weren't just standard Knights either, they were elites chosen to guard the Emperor as well as the Emperor's cousin. Krayt butchered them with no opportunity to respond.

Sidious' feat is better, because the B team is still better to those IK's, but Krayt dramatically improved after that so it easily evens out imo.

When it comes to deflecting blaster bolts and cutting down defenseless batlledroids, then yeah, they might be some of the best of their era. When it comes to duelling with actual Sith Warriors? Nah. They're pretty far from being the 'best', or even being 'competent'.

deflecting blaster shots is more relevant than dueling skill when it comes to not being blitzed lol

Yeah, I've been noticing this kinda shitty logic on multiple Forums now.

Unless blaster bolts can change trajectory at any time from their starting point, then no. Blocking a lightsaber from someone channelling the Force, is far more unpredictable then positioning your blade to deflect something that can only go in a straight line. lol.

Fak u Jack.

but there r multiple blaster shots they have to move around and block

Considering that Sidious was moving too fast for even Windu to initially react, nor could he be perceived by Darth Maul when supposedly holding back, no, Krayt does not compare lol.

And lol @ assuming blitzing the B-Team is remotely the best he can do.

this feat is not even remotely Sidious level

Krayt is only better than Palpatine after his rebirth, and that's better than regular Palpatine. DE Palpatine is a different story.

So, they were the cream of the crop fodder? Magnaguards have recieved similar hype, and Fisto, one of the Jedi Masters here, has virtually blitzed them.

I'm not saying the Imperial Knights sucked, but no way are nameless randoms anywhere near the likes of Fisto, Agen, or Tiin. Again, not only famed to be the greatest at the time, but the greatest in the history of the Order.

Who gives a shit about Magnaguards.

They aren't the greatest anything, lol. The B team is above them, but Krayt is vastly superior in his strongest incarnation as well.

Kas'im could near blitz trainee Bane who moved faster than near Sith Masters could even see. Not arguing Kas'im is Krayt level by any means, but it takes more than feats like this to place one on Sidious's speed tier.

Point is, Magnaguards are similar to random Imperial Knights KEK.

After all, they were stated to be "more than a match for most (Jedi)" with "near relativistic reflexes". Both were compared to Jedi favaroably, and both were, at the time, some of the best their faction had to offer. How are the Imperial Knights so much better?

Even scaling, this doesn't put Krayt anywhere near Palpatine in speed.

Cancer.

About as cancer as Krayt being better than Sidious at anything, worth anything. 👆

The Imperial Knights are pretty powerful, Antares Draco was able to beat Talon, IIRC.

No, he didn't. Also Draco was the leader of the IKs, that's like saying every jedi is pretty powerful because of Yoda.
