Is Galen Marek actually stronger then Vader?

I've been thinking about this, and despite all the hype, and even though Marek defeated him, is he TRULY stronger then Vader?

He has a greater force potential then sidious so yes he is stronger then POST ROTS vader, plus there is no hype about marek, when TFU came out he was overrated now he is a vastly underrated character

Vader has to many limitations on him to beat Marek, simple as that. His Force Potential is limited due to the way he taught by Palpatine, and he's less agile than he was before.


Or Marek no longer exists so no. Whichever answer you like better.

Vader is 80% of Sidious power, which means Galen Marek is at least 81% of Sidious Power.

Potential means nothing... Achievement is all that matters

No, he does not have higher force potential then Sidious, I don't think you quite understand the magnitude of Sidious' power, someone bring in the Force Storm scan, please?

No, he's not. Galen is an equal to Vader as of The Force Unleashed and Vader had become a "far more formidable" duelist since then, and he himself noted that he had grown more powerful as well.

Potential =/= capability. Anakin had the potential to be above them all, but it was never realised. He only achieved so much. Marek achieved further, and Palpatine further still. But he was old, so he had time to do so.

Sidious says that Galen can become greater than him.

I don't know about that. TFUII only has Marek defeat Vader due to the storms on Komino. Not his own potential. Not saying that he would lose without it, just that he didn't beat Vader on his own.

We don't talk about that game. It never happened.

I always thought he said his potential was equal.

Yes and No.

Yes Starkiller was more powerful than Vader while he was alive.
TFU I Starkiller beat TFU I Vader, and TFU II Starkiller barely managed to beat TFU II Vader but still beat him nonetheless.

No Starkiller was not stronger than Vader at his ROTJ peak. Vader's difference in performance from TFU I to TFU II already shows his rate of improvement.

Mind, Galen's success was indicated to be partially due to style familiarity and similar factors. If he had entered without said knowledge, he'd lose.

Just like how Kenobi beat RotS Vader without being stronger than him.

I think Vader's stronger, but not by much.

I don't believe starkiller from TFU 2 is a clone how could be? Look at all the other clones they are all aberrant how is it possible for a clone to be full grown and still sane in 6 months? The dark apprentice was obviously a clone, Galen still had all his memories
