@intrepid37:
Anakin is not marginally better, he is noticeably better. None of Kyp's dueling feats (or Kyle's, for that matter) can compare.
Kyle Katarn is not far off from Anakin at all....where are you getting that from? Defeating 7 highly trained Dark Jedi BEFORE receiving any formal Jedi training, mastering several forms from both the original Jedi Order and the NJO and defeating several Vong warriors ( if you know anything about the Vong Warriros you would know how good this feat really is.) Not to mention even Caedus considered him a threat.
First off, does Kyp have a tendency to use telekinesis in a fight? And second, prove your claim that Kyp would ragdoll Kenobi.
Yes he does. Kyp is known for being a savvy combatant. He has used esoteric powers to get victories against opponents in the past. Secondly what is there to prove? Maul TK feats are noticibly below Kyp's and he has had Obi-Wan defenseless twice, while Kype has hurled builders at FLYING TIE Fighters and used an freaking space freighter as a telekinetic weapon, with moderate difficulty. Kyp can, and would rag-doll Obi-Wan.
Provide details, please.
But Kyp no longer needed this particular missile. He ordered Octa's squadron to regroup in a defensive position around the Jedi scientist's ship. "As the Master says, size matters not," he murmured.
He released his hold on the second missile, not caring that it was swallowed by one of the coralskipper's stuttering singularities. Reaching deep into himself, he sought resources he had not used for many years.
Once before, Kyp had seized a ship and dragged it out of the fierce heart of a gas giant. Now he reached out with the Force and took hold of the dead freighter.
It shot forward with astonishing ease, moving steadily through the vacuum of space toward the shielded coral-skipper. Lan Rim's dark chuckle came through the comm. "Subtle as always, Kyp! Let's not let this one get away, Dozen!" he shouted. The lieutenant spun off in a tight turn, his two surviving pilots following closely. They darted around the big coralskipper, cutting off its retreat, taking and returning fire from the other enemy skips. Their daring maneuvers soon exacted a price-lan's ship got caught in a Yuuzhan Vong crossfire. The double blast of plasma proved too much for his shields, and the ship dissolved in a bright splatter of plasma and superheated metal. The pilots Lan had commanded doggedly held the course he'd plotted. The XJs continued to harry the big skip, forcing it to keep up its stuttering shields as the dead freighter closed in. At the last moment, the surviving X-wings shot away toward safety. The freighter never got close. One moment it was there; the next it simply disappeared into a void. What happened next was not exactly what Kyp had had in mind.He'd hoped for a physical impact, or, barring that, that the freighter might overwhelm the dovin basal's capacity, leaving the big coralskipper vulnerable to attack. It had never occurred to him that the skip's multiple singularities might merge into one and fold in on the Yuuzhan Vong ship like a glove turning inside out. But suddenly, the freighter was gone. So was the coralskipper.

If I really wanted to, I could say that it was retconned that Durron actually DID pull the Sun Crusher out of the heart of Yavin IV given what was later stated above.
Carron is not an especially powerful telekinetic, nor do I see reason to believe that his Force aura would be stronger than someone's of Kenobi's caliber.
Nice job to use a strawman. I never said he would rag-doll Obi-Wan because what he did Carron, I was just naming it as one of his feats. Also, Carron Force aura is decent considering it would require everything he has just to move his lightsaber two inches.
Anakin threw boulders big enough to crush huts in AOTC.
Flying TIE Fighters>Static Huts.
Maybe, but you haven't proved it.
Using a space freighter as a telekinetic weapon with moderate difficulty>>anything Maul has ever done. There is also Kyp hurling proton torpedoes at great speed at Yuuzhan Vong ships, etc,etc.
Again, irrelevant until you prove that Kyp's telekinetic feats surpass Maul's.
Nothing, I repeat, NOTHING Maul has ever done supersedes Kyp using a space freighter as a telekenetic weapon...NOTHING.
The fact that the prequels were made makes this absolutely irrelevant.
The point is Kyp was always meant to be one of the most powerful characters in the Star Wars universe. My statement was only a testament to that, not the crux.
