I don't know enough about Malak to take part in this one properly.... I don't know that much about him either, but I know he is better than Maul... Me to... but I feel it'd be kind of unfair if I took a side.  |

EU writers don't decide what's canon. The EU is overpowered in general though. It seems the more a character is connected to the EU the more overpowered he is. Actually the EU is basically what makes Star Wars what it is, it makes up more than 90% of Star Wars canon and expands what we can't see in the movies Finally someone that appreciates the EU. |

I also appreciate though Palpatine clones are stupid.... Most people here just don't know much about it though. |

I like to read a lot of the EU, actually, but I don't consider a lot of it canon if it doesn't fit in with G-canon. But I don't know much TOR, just prequel EU and OT EU. |

A better fight IMO would have been Lumiya vs Malak. Both are powerful but not extreme Sith.

I don't really care for much of prequel EU as their isn't much interesting stuff.... And I honestly find books with Jedi and clones fighting droids too just be out right boring. Labrynth of Evil is the only book I enjoyed in the prequel era. |

Playing against Malak for over 50 times now, I can assure you that Darth Maul has a high chance of winning.

Malak evades combat, staying on defense. Maul on the other hand, stays attacking. Maul is more relentless and more talented on lightsaber skill. Malak will use instances of force lightning against Maul which could levee the battle drastically depending on the setting (are we talking game health or SW movie realistic health?). Both have a mixture and differences in combat. Though this has been seen before with Maul, against Qui Gon, he chased after him and defeated him. With Maul's blade I could estimate a high percentage of a win, on game health. With realistic settings, it is very possible Maul could strike a deadly blow to Malak easily, though take into account Malak's lightning which could make him easily win. It depends in that mode who strikes first and with Maul on the offense he may get enough leverage to defeat Malak.

Malak wins.
He can either:
-Create a whirlwind and send Maul flying
-Destroy him in saber combat
-Freeze him in a Stasis Field
-Use lightning to electrocute him to death
A whirlwind would obviously kill Maul, and although Maul is good at saber combat, I doubt he is as good as an actual Sith Lord, who went toe to toe with Revan.
And the Stasis would leave Maul open for attack and Malak would just slice him.

I don't think I know enough about Malak to vote truthfully, but I'd still lean towards him winning.

Satele Shan wins, here is a description of her saber skills and force abilities:
Satele Shan was incredibly strong in the Force. Shan was skilled with the use of telekinesis, and her strength with such abilities even as a Jedi Knight was enough for her to bring down an entire mountain on top of Darth Malgus during their battle. She was also able to dismantle the door to Darth Mekhis' fortress using the Force, and was skilled enough with tutaminis abilities to block a lightsaber blade with her bare hands without injuring herself. Shan's powers continued to grow over her lifetime; by the time of the Battle of Rhen Var, she was able to destroy a blast door simply by using the Force to break it into pieces. During the incident on Sebaddon she was able to dismantle hex droids with a mere gesture — droids that were more than a match for other Jedi and Sith alone.
Shan was exceptionally skilled with the use of both a normal lightsaber and a double-bladed lightsaber. In combat, Shan was an agile fighter who utilized acrobatics to both evade her opponents and to quickly strike them down.

He was the first too discover the force ghost thing as well. Well first to rediscover as some Jedi had it in TOR. |

And Shan fought Malgus and survived (and defeated him once), Malgus probably is better than Windu |

The 2nd duel was also a lot of help from Jace. But being able to become a force ghost must mean you're pretty powerful since only Obi, Yoda, Anakin, Luke are ever seen doing it I believe. |

Like Exar Kun kept himself inside the massassi temples of Yavin. |

"The Force ghost was the soul and essence of a deceased Force-sensitive who denied the will of the Force upon death, yet was able to interact with the living, albeit not physically" Nothing to do with power ^ |
