Malak. I see no indication of Revan being able to dispatch Malak as easily as he did Nyriss.

Honestly, unless you seriously take novel Meetra as anything near her KotOR II incarnation, Malak probably wins on holistic portrayal.

Nyriss, she would've casually blitzed Scourge, if not for Meetra, and she was throwing out Bane tier lightning with ease.

Nyriss was powerless against Revan Reborn but that is a very different prospect compared to amnesiac Revan, who Malak couldn't beat with a massive Star Forge advantage.

SF Malak and KOTOR Revan are pretty close to each other actually, according to Drew Karpyshyn.

"...that [Star Forge] battle would have been a brutal, hard fought affair spread over multiple pages."

―Drew Karpyshyn (Star Wars: The Old Republic: Revan Author)

Yes, that doesn't preclude the fact that Malak admits inferiority whilst amped massively.

Admitting inferiority and being vastly inferior are two different things. Malak admitting inferiority is true, as he was indeed inferior; but KOTOR Revan wasn't vastly superior, enough to win is about it.

Well he goes through an entire monologue where he admits that he was never as powerful as Revan and that Revan had always been his better. Malak losing makes him inferior. Malak vs Revan on neutral ground where Revan doesn't fight through an army of Sith and Bastila Shan, then an army of droids to get to Malak in the first place, who doesn't havd Jedi captives to sap energy and vitality from? That fight is going to be a lot less difficult for Revan.

Without the SF amp it would obviously be easier. But the fight still was close.

Congratulations, you proved nothing.

I proved that their duel on the Star Forge was closer than you implied.
