Sidious & Maul vs. Anakin, Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon, and Kit Fisto

I don't know how Maul would be able to cotend with Anakin for more than a minute (and that's even stretching it).

We all know Anakin is arrogant, and learned to use his anger, fear, and so on as a weapon. Obi-Wan in TPM was able to break Maul's saber due to the fact he was:

1.) Quick.
2.) Enraged.

Obviously if TPM "Padawan" Kenobi can take out Maul's saber, I'm very certain Anakin can do the same, but actually kill him, and in less time. Anakin is quick, better with a saber, and uses his emotions as weapons that make him near invincible when thinking clearly, as demonstrated against Dooku. Kenobi broke Maul's saber in 16 seconds. Anakin dropped Dooku in less than a minute, and for a part of it, was set off his game by Dooku's taunt, so he wasn't fighting as well. To assume Maul will last longer than Kenobi, Qui-Gon, and Kit is ridiculous. And there's no way Darth Maul's line...

"At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi. At last we will have revenge."

...will interrupt Anakin, and I less doubt that Maul will last thirty seconds. Maul is not in the same league as Dooku, and an enraged TPM Kenobi is twenty thousand leagues under the sea from ROTS Anakin.

I know Maul is better than Kenobi, but it specifically states in the TPM novelization that because Kenobi is quick, he was able to anticipate Maul's moves, where Qui-Gon could not. We all know Anakin is fast, and far better. If Anakin engages Maul, I'd say he takes out Maul before Obi-Wan goes down. Either way Kit Fisto, and Qui-Gon die yet again. And so does Maul whatever way you look at it.

Now, that's just if Anakin engages Maul. If Anakin engages Sidious, he can definitely hold him off long enough so that Obi-Wan beats the shit out of Maul, and I'm fairly certain Anakin and Obi-Wan will overcome Sidious in a pure saber match. I doubt Sidious will be using many Force powers in such a small environment, and with so many people attacking at once. I mean, he could take Kit and Qui-Gon out with the Force, but then Anakin would be there to engage him with a lightsaber.

I'd give this match to the Jedi the majority of the time.

I definitely don't think so. In fact, I know so. Maul cannot break Obi-Wan's force defense nor saber defenses. In saber defense especially. Obi-Wan would tear Maul's shit up, and so would Anakin.

Do note that ROTS Anakin's saber skills are only one level higher than TPM Obi-Wan's (when he was using the Dark Side) according to Nick Gillard, who is not always right I'm just saying. 🙂

Okay? Then Nick Gillard has no clue what he's talking about. Why? Because Anakin is rated a level 9 along with Mace Windu, Yoda, and Sidious. So, we don't really need to take "note" of anything.

I don't think he made that statement before ROTS, ergo it's perfectly viable to say that statement is void. He says that "Obi-Wan is a level 8 - he's moved up" in The Making of ROTS. And along with that, as previously mentioned he rates Anakin, Sidious, Mace, and Yoda on the same level. So, that point really holds no water. Not saying you're actually making a point, just relaying it out there.

Lol, what Sama said.

NG said that Anakin only became a level 9 when he turned to the Dark Side and becaume Vader. Anakin as a Jedi's a level 8.

NG just teaches the actors how to swordfight, I don't see how he gets to decide who's what level and all.

Cause from teaching them he can accurately judge how good they are with a blade.

Uh, Nick Gillard denies the existence of Vaapad. Your point? If you want to take "levels", I'll go by RPG Sourcebooks, and Vader is more powerful than Exar Kun. Marka Ragnos > NJO Luke by "stats".

No, he obvious cannot. Because you're saying Obi-Wan is level 8, and so is Anakin. Make sense? No, because a lightside Anakin would beat the shit out of Obi-Wan. He's also plainly better, this is obvious. Nick Gillard = not an authority. Stupid to even bring it up.

Palpatine kills Qui-Gon and Kit, watches Maul die and decides to hightail it. Those who are smart and run away live to fight another day...when the odds and numbers are more even.

If it's stupid to bring it up then why did you bring it up in the Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Grievous vs. Sidious thread? And not all level 8's are equally as strong, you think every level 8 swordfighter is exzctly even? That's riduculous.

That's true Advent, you did use NG as a source in an earlier thread...

I did not bring it up in that thread. If you can find it anywhere in that thread coming from me - I'll give you $100. Here's the link:

You'll be hard pressed to find it, as I made the comment in the "Kyle Katarn vs. ROTS Palpatine" thread. But that's besides the point.

I made that comment before I knew Nick Gillard was rating characters that don't deserve to be on equal levels, and being a lunatic. Hence, you can see my obvious difference in arguing here from there. And like I said in that thread:

Obviously, he isn't right. And because of such, my comment in that thread holds no water - not that it did anyways.

And not all level 8's are equally as strong, you think every level 8 swordfighter is exzctly even? That's riduculous.

Did I ever actually state that? Ah, shit. No, I didn't. What I implied was that Obi-Wan is not in the same league as Anakin. And, I do want to ask for proof where Anakin is stated to go SSJ, and turned level 9 when he turns to the Darkside, as your friend - Nick Gillard - did say this:

"...I had to give them levels," he (Nick Gillard) said, "Sidious is a level nine [out of ten]. On this film, Obi is eight - he's moved up - Anakin is a nine; Mace is a nine, Yoda is a nine. They're up there with Sidious."

-- Page 133, The Making of ROTS.

Now, I don't give a shit about Nick Gillard's "authority", as I now realize he has none, but show me where Anakin turns level 9 SSJ said by Gillard, so as I can see what it actually says.

Nick also said that Anakin was the most powerful person in the galaxy by ROTS. He is not a source to go by, he just states his opinion. Truly, if he was right, then Anakin would have WTFpwned Kenobi on Mustafar, Mace would never have Vaapad, and Cin Drallig would been near equal to Anakin saber and force wise....

And TPM Obi being close to Anakin saber wise, no...just no...

Yes, I do, you only use Nick Gillard when he agrees with you, but when he says something that you don't like you say what he says doesn't mean shit.

Oh really? I even used Nick Gillard as a key point for my argument? No, no I did not. I even stated that he is "not right in anyway" two times. And in this thread, I said this:

"Obviously, he isn't right. And because of such, my comment in that thread holds no water - not that it did anyways."

I believe it was in the OT extra features DVD when their talking about the battle between Anakin and Obi-Wan.

Give me the name of what feature it is. I have the OT on DVD, so I'll gladly look that up.

I agree with DS.
Advent, hypocrite much?

Adas, if you agree with someone, clearly that's not good for their side.

We already know you're here to annoy, and be a nuisance. How am I hypocritical? I never said Nick Gillard is right, ergo how is saying he's now wrong after I found new information "hypocritical"? I even said the opposite that he isn't right in anyway. And I said that even before I knew Gillard was rating people like a moron.

Hypocritical? Hardly. Adas, dumbshit much? Yeah.

Why thank you Advent.

No problem. Always there to support a loved one. *hug*.
