Did it look like Obi Wan was trying then? The fight hadn't even started yet when Obi Wan raised his lightsaber and let himself get cut down. Against Maul he would still be able to move fast and he would still be ble to block attacks, the force is powerful with him and he has mastered one of the greater forms. He would own Maul..
Hey Vasallo, did you ever read the comic where Darth Vader cut Maul like a punk? Yeah....
ANH Obi-Wan wouldn't be quite as fast, but his defenses would be so incredible he could distract Maul and let Luke take out the Sith Lord. And yes, Luke was very untrained, but the force was with him so much at that point, I think it would ninja him to victory like it does for Obi-Wan.

Arg! That comic can not be used in any debate whatsoever because it is not canon even by EU standards.

I don't think Maul was that strong.. I wasn't really impressed.
I think Luke and Obi Wan are better.
The fact that Maul defeated a Jedi Master with a hurt leg didn't impress you?
That Dooku held Maul in high reguard as a fighter.
ANH Obi-wan and Maul are about equal. With Luke helping, Maul dies.

why is vader so underestimated. he was extremely powerful.
hmm, this vader is extremely powerful stuff has got to stop. Is this your first time on a star wars forum? If so, then people here on KMC do not think vader is as uber as many other crazed vader fanboys do.

ANH Obi-Wan is far superior to Maul. You just have to imagine ROTS Obi-Wan with more force powers and a better fighting style. In fact Soresu mastery alone is too much for Maul add Obi-Wans force powers and he would obliterate Maul on his own in less than a minute. Hell...he did cut Maul's saber and had Maul on the ground when he was a Padawan - Jedi Master Obi-Wan is far too powerful for Maul.
Throwing Luke in here is useless.
