koon beat a superior version of ventress while injured(and thus not being able to utilize the form edge of djem so). There's also quickly gaining the upperhand vs koon and being considered a worthy test of his skills by tpm maul, an accolade mad emore impressive by maul being a cocky fighter.
Koon should be ventress level and as of aotc kenobi isn't there yet.
It might've been a hindrance in being dead weight, but the argument that his lightsaber form had to be changed or became unusable because of the loss of an arm is just wrong.
1.Disarming ventress of her blades is a clear shown of superiority and is certainly more significant than landing a kick(though koon also force blasted her)
2. Based on? If you're using koon vs oppress, the only clashed blades once
I didn't say his form was unusable or he had to change form, i said he was hindered and that his ability to exploit his stylistic edge was hindered becaus elogically using two hands would give you more strength than using one.
1. Which showcases superiority and is defintiely more signifcant than pressing someone in a blade lock(which koon broke out off i the next scan anyway).
2. Plo Koon has never dueled in a visual medium though, obviously he would approach blaster deflection and slashing things which can easily be slashe differently than an actual duel
He fights Ventress one other time equally, IIRC, and it was still with one hand even though he had both. But I don't remember it too well, so I won't press the point.
are you referring to the beggining of the comic? If not the only other fight I've seen was his fight vs Oppress. Anyhow given that ventress was pre prime at the time i hold koon and ventress as equals
An in character opinion of Ventress that's taken at face value (but when we're discussing about characters they don't like, IC opinions aren't proof of anything).
