He eats force sensitives for lunch. But to be honest, I'd like to open the floor to debate as to why Nihilus should be on this tournament. If no one will defend him, I'll try.

I don't think Nihilus is invincible or I wouldn't have listed him. I think it's BS how it's said that no other Jedi can kill him but the Exile. If there was never any Exile, then Nihilus would have run rampant and he never would have been stopped. He's got to be able to be defeated by someone else.
I think that other Jedi could have enough willpower to at least last long enough to have a good shot at defeating Nihilus. He doesn't instantly drain ALL Force from a Jedi/Sith, it's a gradual thing. I'm sure someone like Yoda or Mace or maybe even Obi-Wan or Anakin could have a very good chance at stopping Nihilus. The Exile can't be the only one to be able to stop him.
Nihilus isn't invincible... It just has a gift... Only thing I'm saying is that it's opponent better destroy the anomaly before it sucks the power right out of him/her.
Actually Nihilus was part of the Exile, that is why the Exile could win. It can be argued that if you kill one the other will die too, and you can sure as hell kill the Exile. Nihilus however is a wound in the force that draws power from others to heal himself, something that will never happen.
Actually, you killed Nihilus.. You did not kill the Exile, you may think there is no difference but there is..
Read the Darth Nihilus thread if you want more info, but i'll try to explain shortly here.
The exile created Nihilus when he lost connection of the force, his dark side was pushed out, a wound in the force something that created Nihilus. The exile however was always the one that existed, Nihilus was just part of him. The Exile is however the main part because he always excisted. Nihilus was a part of him that was pushed out.
I don't know if killing the Exile would kill Nihilus but its very possible because Nihilus is part of the Exile, the Exile isn't part of Nihilus.

Alright, I was running a little busy lately. We'll get this rolling tonight. But first, I'm going to pick through the suggestions and pick the LEAST powerful and deadly Jedi and Sith for the very first fight.

Alright, first match for the Jedi...
Kit Fisto versus Ki-Adi-Mundi. Okay, so they're not horribly weak, but what Jedi really is? No force powers restrictions in these battles unless noted. Since it is a tournament, the setting will have a bearing on the battle. For this first one, we will assume they duke it out in say, the arean on Geonosis. Those who post should also put down a place for the next duel to take place. That way, we can keep some diversity and observer uh... feedback thingy... yes. Whatever. My brain just left state.
Alright, Kit Fisto versus Ki-Adi-Mundi. And if you post an opinion, give us some facts or observations, please. No "Fisto pwns all rox00r lol".
From the little i know about both of them, he seems more capable. He was a well known fighter and lead a special unit of clone troopers. Ki-Adi just lead clonetroopers and to me sounds a little weaker then Kit... Probably not by much but he would still end up dead

My thoughts exactly. Ki-Adi-Mundi strikes me as a more pacifist Jedi, whereas Kit Fisto was more primal.
For the first Sith tier.....
Vader (in suit) versus Maul (Sorry Jack, but he's among the least powerful of the Sith, even if he is still very badass). No suggestions for the setting, so it will be the same as above. Arena at Geonosis.
Vader's lightsaber style is very powerful and aggressive, like it was pre-suit, but unfortunately, he's now also very slow.
Maul's lightsaber style is very fast and also aggressive, but a little less powerful, I think.
I think Maul's method of fighting is going to beat out Vader's, if just because Maul is much faster and more mobile than Mecha-Vader. The only way I see Vader winning this is if he forces himself to play defense (which won't happen) or if he can out-Force Maul.
