Who will Duel?

Duel of the Sith Lords

This is a thread about the three movie Sith Lords. Each of you will vote on the poll. When everyones done voting, #1 in the poll with be fighting #2 in the poll in a story I'll write. #3 will be busy doing something (on the computer, in bed, at the market, etc.). Vote away!

Anakin is the chosen one, he will win

Is this a sabre duel or a general thing? If it is a sabre duel than Vader will lose.

but if they can use the Force, Vader gets an A+

I saying whoever wins the poll with duel the #2 guy on the poll. So far it's Vader vs. Dooku.

Oh well, bye bye Vader... who would never be stupid enough to duel a superior opponent.

vader would just force choke them and laugh

If it were that simple he would never have lost to anyone ever.

No, it seems Force powers are only of limited use in a duel unless you are someone like the Emperor.

so far we know he doesn't has a sabre, so technically he can't duel

do we know that vader lost to anyone ever? I dont think he did. he "loses" to luke in ROTJ, but he was well on the way to returing to the light side. theres no way he would use force choke on his own son. its just not "gentlemanly"

Spoiler:
Tyrannus

We all know it is VERY likely that he lost to Obi-Wan.

could be a standoff, ie: him falling from something

it was my understanding that we are talking about post EPIII anakin skywalker. where he is truly no longer anakin, but is darth vader, in life support armor. we know anakin gets whooped in EPII. not darth vader.

He would have done it to Obi-Wan, then, in ANH.

As we nevewr see grip used on other Jedi in duels, it must be because it;s not a good idea- maybe it;s not fast enough, maybe Jedi are resistant to it... maybe they can directly fight it with the Force. I don't know.

But my point about Obi-Wan beating him while in Ankin form is that he still lost a duel, even while at the height of his powers. Now, there may be many factors that go into that, but the point is that while crippled he is very unlikely to be able to fair well at ALL against a full-powered prequel era opponent.

hmmmm, mabye anakin was never taught to fight well. he gets his but handed to him at the end of AOTC. he doesnt train anymore in EPIII. maybe hes just not good.

Ooh... controversial.

I would be very surprised (and Vader fans heartbroken!) if Anakin never becomes a good swordfighter.

If he doesn't, we can scratch the idea of him killing Dooku in III...

But I rather think Anakin will turn out to be rather good at it.

he can beat dooku, but not obiwan, even though dooku beat obiwan and anakin. hmmm. seems like "luck" could come into play alot. but as obiwan said, "in my experience, theres no such thing as luck." i think that is a key line in ANH.

Obi-Wan can improve, of course. As can Anakin.

I think Obi-Wan has a great talent for duelling that only gets better and better. And has then lapsed by ANH, of course- though even then he is not to be trifled with.

And Anakin is just meant to be the dude at just about everything.

and so we are right back to the issue of how the heck obiwan can beat anakin
