Valin, not Valid. lol

And Vader dies.

Emperordmb
I think a team of Jaina and Kyle could already give Vader a fight, I think they could take this with backup.

carthage
Stop trolling me. Nova

How do they win? Vader can stomp Valid and Katarn with telekinesis

SunRazer
Why do you keep saying "Nova"? What's that supposed to mean?

His love of dueling means he's getting his ass kicked.

Vorpal Ruin
Spite in favor of Jedi imo.

Kosmos Supreme
Jaina and Kyle Katarn are nearly as strong as Vader by themselves.
Jaina was able to kill a weakened Caedus. And Kyle Katarn had defeated Jerec who was only a step below Vader.
Those two together are more than enough.

AncientPower
Jaina with circumstances heavily on her side did defeat Darth Caedus yes, Impressive to be certain. Jerec is not one step below Vader, he is considerably lower. I think this might be another Kessel scenario but I think Katarn and Horn just aren't high enough quality to provide Jaina the required boost.

SunRazer
Kyle, Corran and Jaina can solo unless Vader abuses Force, tbh.

AncientPower
Corran just doesn't have it, Katarn fares slightly better than he did against Caedus. Jaina probably takes Vader to the edge but I still don't think this is enough.

carthage
Corran outsparred Mara and defeated Shedao Shai in a decent fight through a feint, didn't Valin hold his own against him though? He is a better fighter than I realized.

His weakness against telekinesis means he gets tooled by Vader's force abilities, but Razer is right than he could hold his own against Vader skillfully

Jaina is anchoring the team. Does she have enough support? ...Probably.

Though Horn's outdueling of Mara took place when she was under the Vong virus, so...'Worf had the flu', so I don't really consider that much of a feat for him.

SunRazer
There is Valin here too - he's not too good but he fought evenly with Corran, though his dad might've held back. Need to check it again.

I thought she would've done better against the Slayers in TUF, but iirc she got downed by one or two of them?

I'll have to go back and look, or maybe my memory just sucks. She's probably the 2nd most skilled to Corran.

Angelalex242
Well, defeating a sick opponent doesn't really show your awesomeness, as a general rule.

That's why Jaina gets significantly less points for defeating Caedus. Caedus was heavily handicapped at the time.

SunRazer
Caedus's "handicap" was definitely there, but it's overrated.

carthage
When did Corran fight Valid?

SunRazer
In FotJ: Outcast.

Valin, bro. Valin.

Dark-Kenshin
Desann fought on par with Luke and even got the upper hand. Kyle beat Desann. Luke beat Vader. Therefore Kyle > Vader? A > B > C. :P stick out tongue

At any rate, team makes themselves a sinister looking black toaster after this.

Nephthys
Vader can ragdoll the whole team barring Jaina, and he'd still pwn her with the Force. I'll go Vader. All of these guys are outclassed and lack the feats to compete.

FreshestSlice
Everyone but Jania and Kyle die, tbh.

Also, your butthurt knows no bounds, Neph.

So? It's a 4 vs 1. That means he has about 1/4th the time to spend on each of them.

Spend enough effort on TK to actually take out Katarn- not just knock him back, but take him out- and Jaina and Corran take advantage. Even the time needed to take out Valin allows everyone else to get into better positions and launch strong attacks.


"In a multi-on-one fight, some fighters can be taken out easily if the one has a few uninterrupted seconds to focus on them," is not a convincing argument, generally speaking, because the thing about multi-on-one fights is there's less time to focus on anyone. Meaning even less powerful fighters have life spans multiplied over what it'd normally be against such a foe.

EmperorSidious2
I think vader is strong and powerful but I believe that each could serve as distraction for the other and Kyle has force lightning and was regarded by both caedus as a valid threat and Luke as a great duelist and also by jaina

Raptor22
Does anyone know which book corran and mara fought in?

carthage
Dark Tide 2 iirc

DarthAnt66
Star Wars.

Yep it was dark tide 2, and right in the beginning too so that was nice. Thanks again.

The fight seemed as even as a duel could be, with corran only winning thru tactics (doubling his blade then turning it off). Other than that it could have gone either way.

Also mara did have the disease at that point and luke even mentions it in the fight, but he also says corran isnt a hundred percent either having just finished his bacta treatments for the injuries he sustained in the shedaio fight. it seemed like almost a wash with mara being slightly worse off.

Anyway i see the team taking this without much trouble. Valin probably dies tho.
