Obsession Assajj Ventress Vs TPM Darth Maul

darthsith19 Arm-Wrestler

Wow, I love Maul but Asajj'd probably beat him, she is the equal of Obi-Wan at this time, who by now could beat Maul without having to rely on luck. Asajj is just to good, she's had so much experience, too. She's killed far more Jedi than Maul has.

No other takers? Personally, I think Asajj would take Maul.

Razielim KGB

Asajj at this point will take Maul for sure.

I'd say Maul. He was taught by Sidious to be a killing machine, he killed Qui Gon, defeated Obi Wan, killed an unguessable amount of Black Sun elite thugs and a Sith Witch with out an injury, and, is a Sith Lord.

Padawan Obi-Wan cut him in half, actually. Whereas Asajj fought -and won- against Master Kenobi a few times.

Movie necessity, luck, specifics, and terrain. Maul outdueled him.

Razielim KGB

No, he pushed him in a conveniently placed ditch after Kenobi outdueled him by cutting his saber in half. Luckily for Maul, it was cut at the exact point where it would break into one whole working saber.

Maul is also young, overconfident and in some ways, incompetant. He couldn't even track down and kill a 14 - year - old girl.

Even when Obi-Wan cut Maul's saber in half, Maul was still able to win back the ground he lost, and ultimately bested Obi-Wan by pushing him into the reactor shaft. As pointed out, it was only plot necessity and luck that enabled Obi-Wan to then come out victorious.

You can't discount Maul's overconfidence in a fight like this. It's one of his biggest traits.

Still, he was unable to convincingly beat the padawan Kenobi... I don't see him beating someone on par with Master Kenobi.

Asajj is overconfident, too. She thouht she could take on Mace, and ended up jumping the Hell away.

Maul's confidence came from his skill. He was able to duel one of the best swordsmen in the Jedi Order and someone else at the same time. Put it another way. If it had been Qui-Gon (or any other character who did not deed to survive) who went into the pit, do you think he would have come flying out again, or do you think he would have fallen to his death?

As I said, he managed to regain the ground he lost when his saber was cut in half and put Obi-Wan down the pit, that was pretty convincing to me (particularly as Obi-Wan had to survive). I agree however, that Maul would be unable to beat Assajj.

Maul is also young, overconfident and in some ways, incompetant.

And Asajj isn't? Every time she fights Anakin she is winning until she gets overconfident and then she loses.

He couldn't even track down and kill a 14 - year - old girl.

Who happened to have 2 Jedi of considerable strength with her at the time. I'd like to have seen Asajj do any better.

On second thoughts, Maul is under-rated. Maybe he could beat Asajj. I mean, Maul resisted Force lightning. When Mighella shot some at him he jumped right through it. Could Asajj do that?

jollyjim311 Scruffy Nerf Herder

No, she was punked by Dooku's force lightning.

Darth Vious Restricted

Was she capable of casting it herself though? If she can't, then any resistance Maul has would be an irrelevent ability...

He has a much higher understanding of the dark side, is what I meant.

I don't understand... Do you mean Count Dooku or Darth Maul?

jollyjim311 Scruffy Nerf Herder

Darth Maul understands the darkside more than Asajj.

How do you figure?

He was trained by Sidious, and... http://www.swcomics.com/Republic_Era_c.php?i=13&f=13&name=Darth_Maul_4_of_4
