Exar Kun vs Darth Maul - only lightsaber and martial arts
Both use the double blade lightsaber. I'm not sure if Exar Kun is a master of teras kasi martial arts, but Darth Maul is. If these two fought it out with both lightsaber and martial arts who would win? I can't determine the victor because both mastered that type of lightsaber. Opions anyone?
Re: Re: Exar Kun vs Darth Maul - only lightsaber and martial arts
the double bladed saber is a deadly weapon if utilized and mastered properlely. pretty much everything maul trained in were exceptionally deadly tools for him to use. his double balded weapon, his juyo and his close combat skills.
Lol at "double balded weapon." I wanna give this to Maul in a strictly physical duel between sabers or martial skills. If the Force were involved I'd say the opposite.

Sort of off topic but I would like to see someone using two DBLs in combat. Maybe someone doing a fan video just so I can see how it looks and whether he idea is not stupid.
Well if you wanna hire the guy who did Maul's stunts and give him 10 years of training on steroids. Should look pretty sweeeeet.

Sorry, but double-bladed is more deadly if you mastered it properly. More strikes per second if you really understand how to move and strike with the weapon. That's why only few people in Star Wars who can mastered it. You really need exceptional and special abilities with lightsaber to learn the double-bladed lightsaber. For example, Maul and Exar Kun.
Maul is a zabrak, and zabrak use double-bladed sword, so no question there why he choose double-bladed lightsaber. Exar Kun, well, he's the one who created the double-bladed lightsaber after all.
I couldn't disagree more. The weapon itself does not matter, the user does. Mace wouldn't have been more deadly if he had a double-blade, nor would Anakin or Yoda. Once a weapon is mastered the focus becomes less on the weapon and more on how it is used.

The Double-Bladed lightsaber is also a serious design flaw. The fact that you can only grip it in the middle means leverage is always against you. Try holding a broom in the very center only and let a grown man wail on the sides of it...
Plus it's not nearly as versatile. You can't do a lot of close up work with a Saberstaff and you're stuck with using only two vectors of attack, the horizontal strikes and the stab. A single lightsaber can mix it up with more twirls, stabs, and horizontal as well as vertical slashes.

I agree with red nemisis. it comes down to the user of the weapon. And if the user knows powerful force techniques like kriea's or luke's instakill lightsaber combat becomes an after thought.
and yes I feel that maul has been popping up on these forums alot lately.
Yeah, ever since the constant reference of his withstanding that Nightsister's lightning, or whatever, he's been showing up all over the place. Like a bloody phantom. A phantom that menaces us. Hang on a tick!
