Who wins?

Battle takes place in a dead forest.

Zallow imo.

Malgus wasn't that young and inexperienced. At that point he'd beaten Satele, Kao and the Jedi from The Third Lesson.

I'm basing it on the fact that Zallow put up a good fight against Malgus, while Drallig could pwned by Anakin while he was choking out a padawan.

Zallow takes this.

Yeah, Cin Drallig had very low showings despite having supposively amazing saber prowess.

Drallig probably wins. Being the battle master of th golden age of the jedi is more impressive than putting on a fight against Malgus in my opinion.

Equal.

What has Drallig ever done, other than having accolades such as "master swordsman" and "battlemaster of the Order"?

He got his ass handed to him by Anakin Skywalker.

It was a prolonged duel. We see only the tail end in the footage.

Isn't it like one sentence long in the RotS novel? Like, Anakin walks up and hacks him in the shoulder, then it's over?

I don't think so. Besides the game is just as canon as the novel in places it doesn't contradict the film.

I'd say the novelization being line edited by Lucas himself and typically far more in line with the movie would be "more canon" than the game. Specifically since they way the game portrays the fight does contradict the movie (no padawans).

He kills Serra Keto before battling Cin Drallig. Plus she is a Jedi Knight not a padawan.

Movie canon shows Anakin choking someone will defending against Cin's relatively uninspired assault. Then he dies.

Based on what we briefly see in the movie, Drallig wasn't all that impressive.

She's also the most broken versus minigame character too.

Saesee Tiin and Agen Kolar. Btw, we all know ROTS Anakin is above Malgus, right??

No, Anakin was not "in the zone" during the Drallig fight.

Also, Zonakin is used entirely too much. By this kind of logic, Hetizo Trace can move faster than a whipid bounty hunter, who can himself move as a blur to Force users when she has a zone moment; Hetizo Trace can beat anyone. Barriss Offee when she sampled bota had a universe-wide connection to the Force and was seemingly all-powerful. Doped Barriss solos.

Zonakin was stupid back in 2005, and he's not aged any better. I blame GL.

Eh, not when the book has shit like Obi-Wan and Yoda combined wouldn't have a chance in hell against Sidious.

Also the two versions can be combined fairly easily as per starwars wiki.

WAIT WUT.

I could see that being true. Obi-Wan would hold Yoda back and he could become vulnerable in his efforts to protect him.

This makes sense. Their styles do not mesh well, so Obi-Wan would be a hinderence.

Yeah, but usually, Jedi can find a way to work with it, for instance, Jedi who don't know Jar Kai are perfectly capable of skillfully using dual lightsabers at the same time. Just as Yoda and Obi-Wan could be able to adapt to eachother's style's quickly. Obi-Wan is the master of Defense, his Soresu is the best of the order if I remember correctly, I think he could hold off Sidious, especially if he was able to beat Anakin, who I think was a little below Mace. With that, Yoda jumps in, so Sidious has to worry about Yoda's HIGHEST-Level Ataru and still tries to find a way past Obi-Wan's Soresu.

Sidious blitzed and defeated 3 of the Orders best duelists at the time. He's not going to have problems getting through Kenobi's defense.

People like Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Barriss have used dual sabers despite it not being their norm, but I wouldn't say they adapted perfectly.



Think of their styles though; Yoda is all over Sidious and requires a lot of energy expended and room to fight, whereas Obi-Wan is defensive and his offensive moves are usually rebuffed by opponents. Soresu is about turtling until an opening provides itself, whereas Ataru is "blitz them until they die". In that case, Obi-Wan being anywhere near Sidious would be a problem rather than a solution, and Obi-Wan himself is no match for the Emperor.
