If Maul was to face Vader just as he killed those Separatist Leaders.

The question's really not as dumb as you make it out to be.

And by the way, you're the only noob around here freakshow!

Ianus
I'm older than either of you.

And Vader would probably win.

Veneficus
I'm older than the three of you(well at least in KMC terms). (Ignore the date on beneath my avatar it is incorrect). stick out tongue

Wow. Just...wow. Joli's been here since June...you've been here since September. Think about it.

And I've been here four years today, so quiet, all of you. stick out tongue

Maul and Vader both had a great amount of anger and a great amount of skill, but Maul would be no match for the Chosen One, despite his training in the arts of the Sith from childhood. Anakin is just that good.

Council#13
he/she's right (cant be bothered to check). anyway, both lost to Obi-Wan because they were arrogant and unlucky and got chopped in half. But Vader would win i think. maul would stand a chance

Jack O'Neil
Padawan Obi-Wan was a match for Maul and ROTS Anakin was a match for a Master Obi-Wan. Anakin wins.

overlord
Maul was caught off guard by a padawan. stick out tongue
Vader mauls Maul.

Tangible God
The real question should be:

Who has the freakier Psycho eyes?

exanda kane
Maul sucks. Get over it fanboys...

Anyways...erm I Dont Know

jollyjim311
Maul, when you combine it with then rest of his grill.

Vader would take Maul, the combat would be cool to see, though, they both are agressive and speedy.

OBI-Ninja
Vader wins

LordMArkaRAgnos
Agreed.Besides its allready been done in the toj comics.MAul was very close to beating vader though

exanda kane
He was actually. I enjoyed that story actually because Vader was moving like a PT Jedi, somersaulting over a lava strewn cavern etc.

Lightsnake
Maul was facing a shocked, emotional unstable Vader while being aided by a group of dark side prophets....

The Creator
Wasn't that in the visionaries comic? Because if it is then you are using fanfics as proof.

How does Maul suck? For his age he was very skilled and would have become very powerful if he lived to his full potential.

No, Star Wars Tales Volume 3.

And kingkman, if you think me saying Maul sucks constitutes to any point that will benefit this thread then your mistkane. i was merely saying what i always say.

kingkman
I think it is you who is mistaken Exanda Kane. You saying that Maul sucks is the sort of dumb response i would expect from you. You cannot see past the fact that he got extremely unlucky against Obi Won Kenobi and do not consider the fact that he was able to defeat one of the best jedi masters at the time when he was about 24 years old.

overlord
Don't attack Exanda personally because he comes across harsh. Look, that padawan jumping over him was so damn obvious but he just stared and waited for Obi Wan to land and he got cut to pieces.
Maul apperantly is an inferior fighter, no excuses.

kingkman
Maul was merely overconfident, arrogant and underestimated Kenobi.

overlord
And that is exactly what makes warriors inferior. True warriors aren't stupid like that.

He just suck apperantly.. no expression

Maul sucks in the way that if his dual lightsaber get chopped in half like Obi-Wan did in TPM, then and only then Vader stands a chance.

exanda kane
Oh dear god, firstly gratitude for Overlord for defending me, secondly for kingkman, I meant the actual character of Maul, not his 'Ub3r PwnZ3r' ability or fanboys pornography as it were.

Maul is an incredibly lame character, having to be given a "special" lightsaber because there is really not that much interesting or scary about him.

Ok, Maul would lose, pretty much as the whole thread has evidence that he will.

Human Vader II
Given a lightsaber to make him cool? I'm not sure about that, I think the dual-bladed lightsaber was just something cool Lucas thought of and incorporated it into the movie through Maul. I don't think it was specifically made for him.

As to some of the arguments here, I believe that Maul was superior to both Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan in TPM. He underestimated Obi's skills and made a stupid, arrogant mistake. The same type of thing that made Anakin lose to Obi-Wan. I actually think this is a closer battle than some people are giving it credit for.

In my opinion Anakin wins this because while he may be arrogant and foolish in a fight, Maul is not the type of combantant who would exploit that weakness. The duel would be close but Anakin has much more power with the Force and much more experience from fighting in the Clone Wars and fighting against powers like Dooku and Ventress.

Anakin takes it but Maul deserves SOME credit.

hes not the lamest IMO, even though he's probably the weakest sith in the PT and OT movie series of star wars, that still doesnt mean hes the lamest character....he was a highly trained sith assasin with skills impeccable compared to ne1 who had dualed a lightsaber, it takes skill to use a dual-blade, and thats what he did...and plus, maul is fearless, the man without fear in star wars and has an ability to oppress it upon his opponents.....but yes, he would still get beat by pre-suit vader

Braz, being a skilled assassin with a double bladed lightsaber does not make a good character. Maul was useless, he had no depth, nothing interestinbg about him. He is dull and lame.

And Maul fearless? Who needs to be fearful when you have legions of little kids with Maul masks on running around, brandishing double bladed toy sabers.

Vader does win this, almost by default.

Master Vos
Wow, Exanda is like murdering Maul with insults. Of course, if we are judging by the Maul we saw on TPM, then Vader wins no doubt. Of course, if Maul had survived the encounter on TPM then perhaps he could have been a good deal stronger, yet he died "sigh" But then if you're using the word IF, then a number of possibilities occur. Therefore, I must say that Vader would kill Maul, probably after a minute's duel.

Look you idiot I wasn't saying that Maul would beat Vader because I know he cannot, I was saying that Maul is not as bad as you are making him out to be.

Hey professor, dont get offensive.

Thing is, Maul is really a pointless character who does nothing for SW in terms of quality, but thats for another debate; if you took the time to read the posts you'd see that Vader has already killed a clone of Maul when he was in an unstable state, but i supposed you were busy by your lecturn roll eyes (sarcastic) ...

...therefore it would be safe to presume that me saying "Maul sucks" is not actually a point, merely an opinion.

...is there actually any disagreement that Maul would lose? The last couple of pages have just been banter...

darthsith19
Hey, quite dissing Maul. He rocks! he may lose to Vader but he's far more awesome!

Darth_Glentract
Maul would give him a good fight, but he would lose.

Firstly I read that comic and secondly quit calling me professor. I may be a lot smarter than you but im only 13.

Well what are you arguing about then...or would you be going off topic (if which is the case, PM me).

...and I thought I remember you saying you were studying at Westminster...a 13 year old at Uni....

All right, we get it, you think Maul's lame.



Here's an idea, how about discussing the topic on who would win not who's cool and who's not.

It's a school in the UK.

DarkNemesis
Why is this turning into a Maul sucks or not thread?

Liking Maul or not is matter of opinion. Kingman, if Exanda thinks Maul sucks, so be it. Exanda, if people like Maul, then so be it as well. Let's leave it at that.

The title of this thread is ROTS Vader vs. Maul, and Vader would win.

Yet you used the term graduating or something. Sorry, this is going off topic everyone.

And I advise you to stop blurting out your age kingkman, it's just...inadvisary, just like saying you are cleverer than everyone.

kingkman
I said scholarship, not graduating.

Why the hell did you say scholarship lol!

Can we please get back on topic please.

This would be an interesting battle.

Both use aggressive forms with a focus on offense. Neither have shown much in terms of actual defense. Maul despite his offensive prowess was driven back by an older Master and a Padawan while Anakin/Vader ( in the movies ) hasn't ever really been on the defensive end of the battle.

Basically it's a question of who sets the tempo of the fight first.

Vader would probably be the one to do that. Interesting topic though..

Vader would probably be the one to do that. Interesting topic though.. Gideon (or Janus ) quoted from the novelization and made a successful case for Maul. In the TPM novel, he's described not as "being forced back" but as manipulating the direction of the fight in to a more enclosed space where he could separate the two. Maul was controlling that fight up until his arrogance got the better of him.

Well that would make sense. But Kenobi did manage to outduel him after Qui-Gon went down..

for like the first 10 seconds, then Maul pwned him again.

Yea. I can't say Maul cheated by using the force cuz then my arguments for Dooku would be crushed. lol

But yea Maul still got stupid and died. =/

Darth Truculent
Djem So vs Juyo - good match, but Vader was more powerful than Maul. I'd give the edge to Maul in terms of lightsaber and physical, but in Force attacks by far Vader wins. IMO

mattatom
Well Vader has already defeated Maul once. Resurrection, and I quote "Resurrection was selected as one of Star Wars Insider 83's 20 Most Memorable Moments of the Expanded Universe, with Leland Chee confirming its canonicity on his blog."

But the thread title says ROTS Vader not suited the one.

Vader was in the Suit at the end of ROTS though wink

In my Obi Wan vs Maul thread almost everyone agreed that Maul loses.

It was RoTS Obi, wasn't it? Soresu, then.

Bullshit!!! Obi-Wan was no match for Maul in TPM. Yes, he defeated him. But that doesn't always indicate superior ability or prowess. Think of a "punchers chance" in boxing.

Hewhoknowsall
Anakin beat Dooku...

Correction. Anakin "beat" Dooku. Yes he killed him. But the actual defeat has an asterisk..

I'd love to see Ray Park standing there with Nick Gillard annoyed while Hayden trips over his feet and a battalion of 12 year old girls cry for him. Fk'n Lucas man...

Slash_KMC
Still, Anakin beat Dooku. He was just better.

Eminence
No.

^ Assuming Gideon was actually capable of "retiring," that still would've brought him out.

snowninja
vader at this point is an emotional trainwreck. anakin isnt an idiot, but he tries to force his way through everything through brute force (think about his lightsaber style) maul has a true psychopathic mindset. he would exploit his anger and finish him alot how obi-wan did

kotorfan
snowninja I like how u put Maul's personality as .
lol.
