Darth Vader vs. Darth Maul and Qui-Gon Jinn

The battle takes place on Mustafar. This is Vader before he gets injured by Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon and Maul from TPM. Maul has his double bladed lightsaber. He and Qui-Gon agree to form a truce, at least until they kill Vader. The battle starts where Obi-Wan and Vader's duel started on Mustafar.

I think this dhould be pretty close. Vader's definately the strongerest out of the three but Maul's pretty strong and possesses saber skills that arn't to far behind Vader's. Qui-Gon's pretty strong, too. Who wins?

I don't see how Maul and Qui-Gon are going to work together very well at all, unless you have Maul retract his second blade. Even then, their styles are radically different. . . if Vader stormed through the Jedi Temple, slaughtering Knights and Padawans by the dozens, I don't see why he can't bring down these two. They're obviously unlike any duo he'd have fought before, but I doubt they'll be bringing him down. Not to mention that he defeated Cin Drallig in a duel, as was evidenced by RoDV and the DN books.

I think this might end up being Maul vs. Vader fighting on top of objects floating in the Mustafar lave river and the duel likely will not end by one of them getting stabbed but by one of them falling in the lava.

So this Vader is overwhelmed by grief and not thinking clearly?

If he is, they can bring him down.

If he's thinking clearly, he was good enough to "surprise kill" Dooku and presumably kick the shit out of Cin Drallig. I say he wins.

But damn, I voted the wrong thing.

Vader before Mustafar?

If he has a fairly clear mind, he could pull this off with relative ease. Otherwise, he'd still win, but it'd take a bit longer.

I think Maul by himself could put up a good fight with ROTS Anakin. Throwing in Qui Gon makes this a bit... unfair.

What Wesker said.

mmmm...but TPM OB1 took Maul...it was kinda lucky..but face it, so was his win against Anakin...

Anyway, Maul was fast, but i think Anakin was faster. Plus he didn't have the rage that Vader had...I would assume that would only fuel Vader's abilities more making him more unstoppable. As long as he doesn't do any stupid jumps...I don't believe Qui-Gon could match his speed or physical power. But i know QGJ was strong, I just don't think as strong.

Vader takes this in about 15 minutes.

Stop calling the Ob1 vs. Maul fight lucky for Ob1 because he had the upper hand in that match before Maul used the force.

So now you've turned into one of those people who post random pics everywhere now, huh?

It isnt random...Im demonstrating Vaders pose at mustafar after his glorius victory.

Too bad it's before he got the suit then....

IMO TPM Maul>ROTS Anakin in lightsabre combat. I mean Maul was a Sith Lord. So was Dooku but we all know weak Makashi against Anakin's ROTS Djem So. I'm not buying that Anakin was in better physical shape than Maul either. I believe Maul could take ROTS Anakin. Not sure about Obi Wan by this time though(he had exceptional defense). And Jinn's no pushover either. He kept up with Maul 1on1 and can surely keep up with Anakin with Maul by his side.

I still think that this would be a really close fight, but I think the duo could likely win in the end. I'm not sure, though, and as far as Maul having better saber skills than Vader, Maul's are really good but I doubt he could take out Dooku like Anakin did, or Cin. He might be in better physical shape, though. I mean, Anakin was in incredible shape from the Clone Wars, but Maul was pushed to his limits everyday by Sidious. Everyday was like the Clone Wars for him.

@ darthsith19

Maul had mastered Juyo (a Saber Combat Form that is more effective than Makashi and is unpredictable) and used a double-bladed Light Saber to make his attacks even more dangerous. And additionally combined his martial prowess with his dueling skills to become a lethal fighter.

Even Dooku said that Maul was a beast.

No wonder, Anoon Bondara failed to subdue him.

So I doubt that Dooku can defeat Maul in pure Saber Combat.

And Maul will shit on Cin Dralling.

Cin is seriously over-rated.

Vader would win in a close fight imo.

Dude, Maul only was beating mechanical Vader in a saber fight, ROTS Vader is better than OT Vader is with a lightsaber.

S_W_LeGenD, prove that Juyo is more effective in saber combat than Makashi, THE lightsaber dueling form, is. And saber form alone doesn't mean sh*t. By that logic, Maul could beat NJO Luke in a lightsaber duel.

And just cause Dooku calls Maul a beast (when was this, anyways?) doesn't mean Maul's stronger than he is. Sergio Oliva is a beast, but if Ronnie Coleman called Sergio a beast that wouldn't mean that Sergio is bigger than Ronnie is.
