Battle takes place in Atlantis with a procession of ascended masters (consisting of three eyed humans who have ascended to a higher dimensions) and of aliens (consisting of Hebrews and Martians) observing.

Either way, leaning Sora.
Ahsoka.
Tbh either way. Ahsoka's force edge isn't large enough to be relevant.

Nah. She did well against a Vader who's full attention wasn't on her. Sora pressured Mace enough to get him to use the Force.

Lel.

Imagine if Vader used the force on Bulq smile

RHaggis
Tano should take this.

Holding her own against Vader in general is just too far above anything Bulq had ever dreamed of doing.

Should be an interesting match IMO.

Guess you could argue Saesee Tiin "lasted" against Mace too then.

Not even remotely the same thing.

Bulq got taken out by lightning not outskilled with a blade. Bulqs showing against Mace and being one of the most skilled Ligtsaber wielders in the Order's history puts him at or above Ahsoka in skill. That being said she doesn't really have any physical advantages over him and neither really has a power advantage- I still see this as going either way

Also, lets not pretend like he was going to beat Mace, or that he even had a chance.

Syndicate
I believe Vos was being aided by his former master/apprentice was he not?

Not saying Bulq would have beaten Mace but I think it's telling that Mace resorted to using Force powers to defeat Bulq. I certainly think the disparity between Bulq and Mace is smaller then that of Ahsoka and Vader's.

NewGuy01
You know, I was so focused on how many better pictures for Bulq DMB could have chosen that I forgot this was actually a thread.

Tano sweeps.

Yes, but that had more to do with helping Vos overcome his own mental handicaps than increase his fighting abilities.

Not that Vos vs Bulq was at all a standard fight that accurately represented either of their abilities. Vos was literally not even responding to Bulq's attacks during half of the fight.

That sounds like that gay bastard...

|King Joker|
Bulq lasted a shorter amount of time against an inferior opponent; clearly this can go either way.

XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
Inferior? Hmm.

carthage
How exactly is Canon Vader better than Legends Mace in skill?

|King Joker|
Early-CW Windu is likely inferior to Vader, I think. I have RotS Windu above Vader, though.

carthage
Do you have any proof TCW Mace is less skilled than ROTS Mace?

|King Joker|
Originally posted by carthage

Mace is also pre-prime in his fight with Bulq (he muses in a book closer to RotS how he's developed Vaapad since his fight with Billaba) and it's only logical he would have increased throughout the war, by being in combat so much.

DMB has the quote, I think; he can provide it when he comes back online.

Skill =/= effectiveness tho.

Vos beat Dooku too if we combine Legends and canon http://i.imgur.com/I9V1N8m.png

Increased experience? He should have saw far more combat during the Clone Wars than any other point in his life. Well, he certainly experienced being sliced into pieces, which taught him a very important lesson about not jumping into lightsaber blades I suppose.

It's his experience as Anakin + the fact he spearheaded the Jedi Purge.

XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
His experience during the Jedi purge would more likely be to get accommodated to the new suit and style, not necessarily improve from his ROTS self, who gutted one of the 10 most skilled swordsman in history like a pig and was arguably dominating the fight with Kenobi despite being emotionally compromised. Sas put it best: Dueling is Anakin's game, and he's the best at it.

|King Joker|
With more time and experience I really don't see why he wouldn't have improved from his RotS self, especially when he has more actualized power to work with, and he's much more measured and intelligent as Vader. I agree the Jedi he fought during the Purge likely weren't grandiose in ability for the most part, but we don't really know for sure and he hardly has the same quality / explored opponents Anakin did to accurately compare the two using the "Anakin beat ____, what does Vader have that compares?" method. Vader might not fight the same as Anakin where he completely overwhelms in an instant, but that doesn't mean Anakin is better, IMO.

Well again, that's all well and good that he has more, "actualized power" (Though I'm not sure how that one quote holds up against the litany of quotes calling Anakin the best ever, Yoda level, most powerful jedi ever, etc, in conjunction with Anakin's better saber feats) and is more intelligent, but he was still adapting to the new suit and re-tooling his style entirely. The experience would have sharpened his mind, not necessarily made him the effective equal of the fluid, acrobatic, and physically dominant Skywalker. ROTJ Luke, who ultimately has vastly less reserves than ROTS Anakin, was punking Vader after drawing on his anger, and was stalemating him throughout the fight.

I'd agree, but we do have ample comparison with both Ben Kenobi, (against who there are conflicting sources in regards to whether Vader was winning or if it was a stalemate,) and ROTJ Luke, (who's vastly less powerful than Anakin yet stalemated Vader, and he arguably had as much reason to hold back as his Father did.) Even if we go ahead and assume that Rebels Vader was more skilled by virtue of mental determination before knowing of the birth of his son, I don't think there's any evidence that Vader is legitimately a better swordsman than ROTS Anakin, who even in Rebels is implied to have been the best jedi warrior of the Clone Wars.

Okay, well if we're arguing by how long a fight lasts/lightsaber style, then I'd argue that Mace Windu's aggressive Vaapad compounded with Bulq's own aggression would certainly make a fight last less time than the, by your own implication, methodical, pick-you-apart style of Darth Vader.

Not that I think Bulq wins this fight.

Do you like my Anakin love, Sas?

Let's go wank some PT, k? smile

Why do ppl wank anakin his dick isnt even big

Friends Mace Windu was emotionally conflicted in his fight with Sora, its not a legit feat.

On the other hand I really doubt he'd be as successful in stone-walling Maul.Originally posted by |King Joker|

He's a master of all lightsaber forms and was able to stonewall Mace in a duel. Why wouldn't he have the same effectiveness against Maul?

Maul > Ahsoka, anyways. smile

And Cin Drallig was a master of all seven forms as well, still got his shit pushed in by Anakin. That's not proof he can stalemate Maul.Originally posted by XSUPREMEXSKILLZ

XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
Nah, it makes her inferior to someone afraid of Vader. smile

Beniboybling
Who unlike Maul she had the balls to face. yes

XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
Maul was just being rational. I mean, look at what happened to Ahsoka. smile

In all seriousness tho, this is legit a close fight (due to morals) that Ahsoka will have to work for.

Beniboybling
She died a spectacular and heroic death, more than Maul will get. smile

Morals in what sense? I agree this is a tough fight for Snips, but she takes solid majority.

XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
Morals in that Ahsoka won't force rape Sora. smile

Beniboybling
Why? Ahsoka isn't a Jedi, and even as a Jedi wasn't above using Force grip.

XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
You think she'd be up for slamming Sora into a wall repeatedly till he brutally an hero's? smile

"There was a time when Mace Windu had feared the power of the dark; there was a time when he had feared the darkness in himself. But the Clone Wars had given him a gift of understanding: on a world called Haruun Kal, he had faced his darkness and had learned that the power of darkness is not to be feared."

- Revenge of the Sith Novelization

How does that make him more technically skilled? I think that his better understanding of the his own darkness and the Darkside as a whole is what allowed him to create the superconducting loop against Sidious via Vaapad along with his own heightened emotional state. I don't think it made him more technically skilled.
