What are the arguments for Vader jw? These three swordsmen are pretty formidable, above the caliber Vader's used to cutting down. The best argument I could think of is Vader blocking Sidious's strike in LotS, but I don't think that's enough to show Vader has the speed to blitz these masters. Can Vader ragdoll these three just because he gripped Galen? I would think the numbers advantage would prevent that. If there were only two maybe but three?
Also, could Plo's electric judgement play a role? Starkiller's lightning is far better than Plo's, but once again, the number advantage comes into play. A distraction like that could mean death.

Ok, thank you for explaining DP. I'll explore the TK argument in the future.
Are LotS and TFU the main sources you refer to for superior swordsmanship?
