Who prevails? Sound state of mind for all, fight takes place on Had Abbadon.

Krayt's more versatile, can match Anakin's strength, stamina and speed. Also has more experience.

Anakin, 8+/10

Certainly, Krayt is more experienced, but Anakin's innate aptitude with a lightsaber unquestionably exceeds his.

Ching, care to back up why Krayt can match Anakin's strength and speed? If one takes the RotS novel's narration, which labels Anakin as the fastest and strongest in the galaxy, I'd imagine it'd be difficult to place Krayt on such a level.

Well we know that isn't true because he can't speedblitz 2 Jedi masters at the speed of light. Amped Mace is also faster, as is Yoda.

According to what? Anakin almost as easily plowed through Cin Drallig whilst Choking another Jedi and arguably, whilst hindered.

Comparing those fodder Jedi to Tiin and Kolar is ridiculous. Drallig has done nothing that compares to the former either

What speed/strenght feats has Krayt, which are >=Anakins?

Drallig's the one who's listed as being unparalleled in combat, not Tiin or Kolar. Drallig was the one named amongst the top Jedi swordsmen (Obi-Wan, Mace, Yoda etc.) by Dooku, not Tiin or Kolar. Drallig was also better than Shaak Ti.

One could argue that Tiin and Kolar are better, but to suggest that Drallig can't compare to either of them (especially Tiin) is ludicrous.

We saw A'Sharad Hett being able to hang with Kenobi for a while, the same Kenobi that defeated Anakin in his prime.

Reborn Krayt is far, far more powerful than he was on Tatooine.

Anakin wasn't remotely close to top condition in this fight.

You mean in a fight that had more circumstances than lightsaber moves? Hett vs Obi-Wan was also filled with circumstances - in Hett's favor.

Anakin's confirmed, repeatedly, to be better than Obi-Wan as a swordsman. He's an entire tier above his master - a tier being the gap between TPM Kenobi and RotS Obi-Wan.

Ehh, no. Obi-Wan is at least as skilled as Anakin.

Anakin is more powerful, yes, but it was Kenobi's skill that allowed him to take advantage of the "circumstances".

And I fail to see how Hett had any advantage. He clearly had lost his way, as Obi-Wan himself says. He couldn't fight with the calm and clarity of a Jedi, and had no way of taking advantage of the Dark side inside of him like a Sith would.

Obi-Wan won because his mentality was better and Anakin's overconfidence led him to mistime his leap.

Otherwise, even Obi-Wan conceded that Anakin would beat him:



Not to mention:









And:





There's no denying it. Anakin's flat-out better than Obi-Wan.

As for Hett, yes, he was at the advantage. Obi-Wan was slightly out of practice then, and Hett had the environmental advantage as well:

^ Also, Kenobi was holding back for most of them fight, and once he realized: "Oh yeah, Luke!" he stomped Hett.

On topic: Anakin takes this.

Reborn Krayt.

Anakin, IMHO.

Not sure.

Because his power and skill is dependent on his emotional state.



Notice the mass change in Skywalker found in Dooku simply taunting him.

And then make note of the change again when Skywalker is in absolute clarity.

Against Kenobi, Skywalker would be worse off than how it was described in blue.

Anakin.

In some twisted way, he figured if he could beat Obi-Wan, he and Padme would be happy.

That really only makes the situation worse. Anakin is fighting a father and brother figure who he believes is trying to steal Padme, and likewise just was belabored by Padme accusing him of all these terrible things and telling him she doesn't want to be with him. The situation is so ****ed up he's really the opposite of stable. Hell, he even chokes Padme, an act that Vader can't even believe he did when reflecting on the events later on.

The quote also implies that a healthy Anakin could've reached out and killed "the shadow".

Yes or at the very least done something to palpatine.

He was in extreme anger at the time, so it's possible.

Skywalker wins

Yeah, Anakin has better feats and accolades, I don't see why he wouldn't win this.

Pissed off Anakin could win (Not Zonakin). Can't say the same about his apathetic jedi form.

Krayt 6/10
