Darth Maul's fatal mistake?

ok...part of a jedi or sith's powers are being able to sense danger, any immediate threat to them, right? in ep 2, why didnt darth maul sense that obiwan was about to spring up, flip, call quigons lightsaber to him, and bisect him?

probably the same reason QGJ didnt see the move Maul made before getting runthrough. You cant predict the future "always in motion the future is"

and if you have this "spiderman danger sense" it would go like crazy already because you are already facing your foe

Yes, Maul would have known there was always danger from a not-dead opponent. And his arrogance was most likely blinding him, too.

sure was

his overconfidence was his weakness

something more and more common amongst evil sith 😉

Probably as he was dead in ep 2

Well spotted that man...

yeah

sorry about the typo....EPISODE 1, BETTER????? and i agree with ush, maul was too busy gloating to notice anything out of the ordinary.

This might be a little off the topic RJ but I just wondered, in reference to Jedi/Sith being able to sense things...why, in Ep2 when Obi-Wan is sneaking around on Geonosis, doesn't Dooku sense him?? I mean he's RIGHT there...I don't get it 🤨

they just made it that way, or else he would have senced Mace sneaking up on them in hte arena as well.

Oh yeah, oh...ok, oops 😮
Thanx finti 👆

but both times dooku was preoccupied with several people.....

so was Vader in the hangar of DS in ANH

yeah, overconfidence was his man flaw

but vader was occupied with only one person, obi wan.......dooku had a bit more on his plate.

Vader had just the as many around him as Dooku had when Mace snook up on them so............

there were stormtroopers there, yes..but his attention was on obiwan.....
