kek, he was slaughtering them. When did they outrun him? And how is him being tricked relevant to fighting Grievous exactly?

Slaughtering a few of them before running away, yes. And he barely caught up to them near the end of his fight, and relied heavily on the jungle to actually do jack to them.

Well said ILS. Grievous's main weapon is he unorthodox fighting style—Krell pretty much is unorthodox himself.

Nah, I think he legitimately enjoying screwing with them like he did with the voice throwing.

Krell being unorthodox doesn't mean he's as skilled, or as adaptable as Grievous is. He gets murked.

Oh yeah, totally. That's why he let them totally surround him in close quarters and casually deflected everything they had to offer, made mince meat of several before wiping out a small army of them with one wave of TK. He was just having the worst time of his life and can't even run faster than clones.

The difference is, Krell shares all of Grievous' strengths but also has the Force backing him, which is more potent a weapon in the end, and has telekinesis. There isn't a single area in which Grievous shines that Krell doesn't also.
The only argument you can make is "Hurrdurr Krell only appeared once"

The fact that he purposefully put away his sabers to own the clones in hand to hand combat also suggests he was playing with them.

Or to make it so Rex survives...I mean really, you face down a legion of troops, yet don't go first to take out the commander when he's right there?...Hmm..

Krell's performance against the clones is nothing spectecular when you consider he was essentially wielding 4 blades, giving him way more coverage against blaster fire. This however doesn't translate at all to saber to saber duel, where we know more blades doesn't equal better performance.

I think its safe to assume he REGULARLY wields those four blades.
Was Grievous' performance against Ki Adi Mundi and Shaak Ti any less impressive because he had four blades?

WTF? Did people actually watch TCW?
Krell was helluva impressive. Especially in the context of the show.
Krell wins. And pretty easily as well.

Pushing a small army as in... a couple of them. Then killing four[I counted] then leaping out the window(oh, gee, if he was in control and having the time of his life why would he run into the forest? Maybe he needs to tinkle?) Then he kills a couple of them, then TKs a couple of them. And later when the squads split up, he's using the forest for extra environmental aid. Also, speedblitzing the 501st Clones isn't even that good a feat to begin with. Zett Jukassa killed quite a few of them, to the point where he even managed to escape the Jedi Temple, and kept massacring them still. And Jukassa didn't even have nearly the range of defense that Krell had.

Except Grievous is much more adaptable than Krell, definitely more technically sophisticated, definitely stronger and faster, and has withstood/dodged TK from much more powerful Force users.

Just because he's withstood more powerful TK from other force users, doesn't make him better.

It kinda does given that it completely negates Krell's one and only advantage in this fight.
