TPM Qui Gon vs ANH Obiwan

Seriously, what don't you people get in how speed plays a considerable element in not only that duel, but every duel?

Speed is not the most important thing, who was faster Dooku or Maul? Who would win the duel? Yes speed is good to have but just b/c somebody is faster does not mean they win the duel.

Do you know how to grasp basic English? If you don't here's what I said:

Now, explain to me where I implied or stated speed as a stand alone attribute would win a confrontation? Oh? What's that? I didn't?

A 'considerable element' only means that its influental, but not the only thing that matters. Yeah, so next time, don't take my sentences out of context, kid.

im not trying to argue Vader could could beat Anakin, but if Vader lost its not b/c of lack of speed, thats all i was saying. Its not that hard to understand.

Considering you were replying to me referring to the fact that speed itself plays a substantial role (in general), how does your reply so much as allude to anything like what you are saying now? What you made a response to had absolutely nothing to do with Vader versus Anakin in a fight, so try again, slugger.

And no, what you said was essentially that speed isn't the determining factor. Now, I didn't say, and you took what I said out of context due to your inability to properly comprehend sentences.

And really, save the 'its not that hard to understand' comment for your own self.

Sorry for the necromancy, but:

According to Obi Wan in the ANH Novel, he has become more powerful since ROTS. In the NEC it says that he has been busy helping other Jedi, and staying combat ready. According to Lucas, he is more powerful than Yoda at the time of ANH.

My vote goes to Old Ben.

I think Ben may win.

But, does it say anything about his saber skill, because i think ROTS is his peak in saber combat. But if the novel says its not, i will concede the argument.
