Darth Malak vs Kyle Katarn

1. Force
2. Sabers
3. All-Out

-Fight takes place aboard the Leviathan where Malak fought Revan's party.

Legitimately unsure

Would be a good fight though either way

Kyle

Something to consider. Malak only has a single on screen kill that we know of - towards the end of KOTOR where he kills those two Jedi before your party. However, what people don't actually realize is that this was a tactical error made by the Jedi, rather than a demonstration of great power by Malak. Why? Well, Malak unleashed two attacks simultaneously: lightsaber throw and force choke. Throws lightsaber with left hand, chokes with right. Naturally, Jedi on the left gets ready to block with his lightsaber, Jedi on the right puts up force shield to defend against choak, not realizing that Malak was utilising diagonal attacks. Thus, lightsaber goes flying through Jedi defending against choke, and other Jedi switches his form to Soresu to defend against the lightsaber only to get choked instead.

Malak's great ability to confuse Jedi when facing them in teams of 2 (indeed he is the only person we have ever seen utilise diagonal attacks) is useless in a one-on-one battle.

Thus, with Malak's main advantage gone, this is Kyle's fight to lose. The Jedi Battlemaster takes this 10 out of 10 times.

Are you serious right now, lol?

Huh?

The Jedi didn't move because they were telekinetically incapacitated by Malak. 😐

That or his attacks were too fast *shrugs*

That's not how I remember it.

You can go back and watch it. 😬

He was already choking them before the door even opened *shrugs*

lol. You guys obviously don't know anything about martial arts if you can't understand something as simple as misdirection.hysterical

Question - why would they have him attack diagonally if it wasn't to disguise where his attacks were going?

What? His left hand killed the left Jedi. The right hand killed the right Jedi.

The game came out in 2004 bro... I don't have access to my old save files.

Exactly. He attacked diagonally.

No. 😬

If he attacked diagonally, his right would attack the left, and his left would attack the right.

Don't know what picture you think you just posted but Malak isn't even in it. Or at least I sure as hell can't see him so unless he's hiding somewhere...

Uh, he's the red and black figure that has lightning coming out from his hand. 😐

Kiddo

Pretty clear he's ****ing with you

Or hasn't clicked any of the links

I'd like to think the former myself *shrugs*
