Originally posted by EmperordmbIn a lightsaber duel, I don't see him killing the team as a whole fast enough.
Disregarding the fact that Sidious could pretty much speed-blitz to three-shot everyone you just mentioned in a lightsaber duel, you still didn't counter the notion that he can just telekinetically dominate all of them to the point of death in less than 20 seconds (something speed isn't overly relevant in when his telekinetic abilities vastly eclipse any of their capacities for Force barrier).
Granted, I'm going by what I saw in the movie and not the novel, which is close-minded, but meh.
Didn't Mace and Sidious' duel take place in a second in the novel?
