Drayco90's Edgy Edges of Edginess


 * Melee- Revan. Marek didn't get to be a real master with his lightsaber until after he was maybe-possibly-cloned-or-not and got his twin lightsabers. Before that, his fighting style was much more crude and simple, and he relied on his force powers. Revan, on the other hand, had a mastery of numerous lightsaber styles and combat skills, had better form and more talents and abilities which will give him the edge here.


 * Force Powers- Galen Marek. Revan may have had more abilities at his disposal, but they weren't NEARLY as strong as Marek's own abilities. He can easily overpower Revan with more frequent use of stronger force abilities. His push can completley demolish buildings and topple Kashyyyk trees with ease, his lightning can disentigrate whole squads of armored Stormtroopers and his telekinesis is far stronger than anything ever show before him, or after. Revan powers are shit in comparison- his healing costs a LOT of his ability per use, and won't be too much of a gamechanger, and his "mastery" of both schools leaves him weaker in them both as well. Galen Marek is the most powerful Force User in the galaxy. Full stop, and he's been trained his whole life to use them to their most deadly extent.


 * Deadliest Warrior- Galen Marek. Starkiller wins this for one real reason- he's an absolute monster on the battlefield. Revan is a great leader and general, but Marek is force of nature, and will tear his way through everything between him and his goals, Revan included. I wouldn't even put Revan on a Sun Tzu type level with strategies- this is Star Wars we're talking about, a universe where most ships stay near stationary and shoot missiles at each other to see who dies first, and most troops don't know what Cover or Flanking is. After he lost his memory, any military genius he once had was gone, and while it would come back over time, it would never be as potent as it was- plus he's easily the most overrated Star Wars character ever, and even my gigantic Bioware bias can't slow down Marek's clear victory.
