Darth Malak vs General Grievous

Nah.

Malak probably does win if he opts for Stasis.

👆 regardless of William's argument, it doesn't matter, because Malak's stasis isn't something he has to target at Grevious (I.e. It's not something Grevious can just dodge,) so under these circumstances, in a forum setting, Malak uses stasis field + saber throw ftw. 👆

Yeah a Stasis Field has to be resisted, not dodged. Something a non-Force sensitive can't do.

You must not have read through the whole response then since I addressed that point in there. Unless you're suggesting Force stasis can be utilized faster then Force crush.

Malak in canon

Legends is iffy but I'm going to back Malak for a majority as well.

Yeah because one requires targeting and one doesn't.

Then I guess you're suggesting Malak could utilize stasis faster then, specifically Mace, could use Force crush.

Last time I checked, Mace wrecked Grievous with Force crush.

That's the point. Try reading the thread before attempting to sound smart.

The way you worded your post seemed to suggest Mace failed to Force crush Grievous, or at the very least was on the clock and almost got overwhelmed.

FB, by the way.

Mace didn't attempt to incapacitate Grievous with the Force in their LoE encounter despite having been on the other end of a train car rather opting to engage him saber to saber despite having limited time and actively seeking not to prolong the engagement. The fact that he did utilize Force crush on him in the miniseries shows that he would have no qualms about doing so in LoE.

Edit: Misread your post.

Reread my last post and try again.

Jedi don't always do the most practical scenario. I can go through countless TCW episodes where the issue could have been resolved if they just used the Force.

Whatever the case, we see Mace incapacitate Grievous here, so I don't see the point, since we know he can do it. It's entirely possible Mace regretted not doing it earlier, and thus decided to do it now, also.

Well, you're free to hold that interpretation if you like. Unfortunately I'm not going to assume PIS for PIS sake.

Mace can do it when Grievous isn't going to be moving towards him engage him ( he had to ensure the Chancellor was brought aboard the Invisible Hand ) and he has all the time in the world to focus his energies. He can't when Grievous is seeking to actively engage him even when he has the distance of an entire train car between them.
