If he's as strong as Obi-Wan, then the Spartan. Obi-Wan is an outrageous sword dueler for a Jedi (being a Guardian) and would likely walk all up and down the Arbiter in a CQB. But at range, he's less so, especially since blocking a bullet is not the same as blocking a bolt of plasma.
You are right, it's not the same.
Instead of the bolt being reflected, the bullet simply vaporizes upon impacting the blade.
And yeah, people seem to not notice how damn powerful the force can be, or what tactics can be used.
And the one guy seems hell-bent on making the Spartan win by randomly giving him things outside of the situation provided.
And people overestimate the Force's power in certain areas.
Example: Obi-Wan could not Force Crush an entire armada with a flick of his hand. Being a Guardian, he was a physical athlete and a lightsaber warrior, less so a Force user.
Hell, even a Counseler couldn't do some of the -blam!- people say Jedi/Sith could.
Obi-Wan was just another Jedi with a certain knack for sword fighting. Normal Jedi like him are not anything on the scale of Starkiller, Palpetine or Yoda.
That isn't to say he didn't use the Force, but it always was to get out of situations where he was trapped (blowing Grevious away when he got too close in Ep. III). He never used it as a standard weapon.
And he only ever pulled an enemy's weapon out of their hand when trying to diffuse a situation peacefully (in fact, Vader was the only one I can recall doing that).
These two guys are trying to kill each other. Remember: Obi-Wan is still only human, despite his powers.
No, I wasn't saying Obi-wan could crush a fleet.
Thing is, we aren't talking about Obi-wan. We are talking about a force user, Jedi, Grey jedi, Dark jedi, sith, whatever. Of similar strength to Obi-wan.
Simply put, saying "They wouldn't use force pull because Obi wan didnt." is bull. I'm looking at this with ALL the powers they could use.
Then the Spartan sets an intricate trap and waits for days for the Force user. Or sets off a grenade as a distraction to shoot him in the back.
Odds are, the Force user might not even see the Spartan before its too late.
