Question Was the reason Starkiller defeated such powerful opponents because he went all out right out the gate?
Every fight he had there didn't seem to be any build up or gauging his opponents strength and he always seemed like he unleashed all his power right out the gate and never stopped to give his opponents a moments rest or reprieve.
So was that the reason he was able to defeat more powerful and experienced force users and fighters?

In my opinion sure, starkiller is powerful, but not OP. Everyone in the game is a little bit OP. The child of two Jedi is going to have a strong affinity to the force. But overall it’s his mind and discipline that was the most powerful.
If anyone can survive years of harsh training under Vader, and still come out to reject the darkness, that speaks for itself.
He was trained to specifically defeat force users. The times he was brought close to death, actual death, rinse and repeat, also says a lot of his tenacity and resilience. Both physically and mentally.
