Stunned by this turn of events, Starkiller nevertheless remained loyal to Vader, and began fomenting a rebellion against the reign of the Galactic Empire as part of his master's plan to depose Sidious.
Lord Starkiller is an antagonist in an alternate Star Wars timeline in which Darth Vader is defeated and killed by his former apprentice Galen Marek, code named Starkiller.
Masters. Galen Marek, formerly known as Starkiller, was the force-sensitive human male Jedi who founded the Rebel Alliance and battled the Galactic Empire as one the earliest saviors of the galaxy.
Galen Marek, also known as Starkiller and The Apprentice, is the main protagonist of the 2008 video game Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and the overarching protagonist of its 2010 sequel Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II. He was raised secretly from a young age as the apprentice to Darth Vader.
Given what is known of Vader's story, this did not happen in Star Wars canon. As such, this is another element of Starkiller's story that would need to be changed if he were made canon. Of course, the easiest possibility for integrating Starkiller into Star Wars canon would simply be to completely rewrite his story.

Is Starkiller stronger than Vader?
Galen Marek, better known as Starkiller, was the main protagonist of the Legends games before Disney bought Lucasfilm. He displayed incredible control of the Force, from moving a Star Destroyer to defeating both Vader and Palpatine in succession.
Cal Kestis and Starkiller come from vastly different places, but they may be two sides of the same coin. One was forged by Vader while the other one was forged by rebellion, but they both ultimately do what is right in the end.
Darth Vader was pleased with Starkiller's performance, but felt that his apprentice remained unfocused and easily distracted, drawing Kota's lightsaber on him to illustrate his point.
He is pretty powerful, definitely up at an A tier level of ability. He has faced quite a few potent Jedi masters. If memory serves, the most powerful person he beat outright was Shaak Ti. He did technically beat Vader, but he used lightning and then damaged his suit with a hurled piece of debris that exploded.
He'd be a Gray Jedi. He fought for the Republic and Rebels, but used Rage, Force Lightning, and the Saber Throw (all considered dark side actions). A gray jedi can either be a Jedi who uses the power of the dark side for good or power, or just some Jedi who is reclusive and not part of the Republic's group of Jedi.
Subject 1138, also known as "Starkiller," was a clone of Galen Marek, a Force-sensitive Human male trained by the Sith Lord Darth Vader as his secret apprentice.
Starkiller ultimately avoided the future that the Sith Warrior represented. He reclaimed his birth name, "Galen Marek," and re-embraced his Jedi lineage, just before he saved the Rebel Alliance from a premature end at the cost of his own life.
Starkiller shot Force Lightning at him and ended the fight as he threw his lightsaber at him, splitting Kylo Ren into two and launched his remains out of the base.
Starkiller's not more powerful than Vader. He is more diverse in his repertoire of Force techniques, but essentially, Starkiller is all flash and no substance. To give you an idea of what I'm talking about: if Force Lightning from Palpatine is a 10, Starkiller is at a 6, maybe a 7.
During the match, Luke remarks that Starkiller was making him angry, and when Luke is then defeated by Starkiller, who mocks him on destroying him as he "destroyed his father", Luke screams in anger and falls to the the dark side as Fallen Luke.
The fight itself is a draw, but Yoda turns it into a victory for Sidious by retreating (because they are evenly matched and there is nothing more he can do then and there).
In the real universe, Luke became a Jedi, Redeemed his father, and lived happily ever after. BUT, in the Ultimate Sith Edition, he fought Lord Starkiller on Hoth and turned to the Dark Side.
That said, considering Star Wars: The Force Unleashed's power levels, Starkiller is arguably more powerful than most Jedi who ever appeared in a live-action or animated Star Wars project. Players actually get to defeat Palpatine in The Force Unleashed, and Galen Marek's very existence was a threat to the Emperor.

The Force Unleashed's Starkiller is a practitioner of Form V, a defensive and opportunistic approach to using a lightsaber. There are seven forms in total, but some - including Form V - have multiple disciplines.
Actually the name Starkiller was originally going to be Luke's last name instead of Skywalker. But they decided not to use it as it doesn't sound right for a heroic protagonist. So the name Starkiller is a reference to Luke's original last name before it was changed.
