Tirek was only ever an nigh-unstoppable force in Twilight's Kingdom Part 2 because he'd absorbed practically all the pony magic in Equestria and he was only able to do that with Discord's help. I suspect that he is going to be weaker this time and any fight between him and Twilight will be on a more level playing field.

What I suspect will happen is that Zecora and Star Swirl will encourage Twilgiht to look to a more round-about solution than a head-on confrontation that will lead to immense property damage. To outthink him rather than overpower him.
