Adamantium/Vibranium is a product of current Earth technology, which is quite low-tech compared to the weapon that is a lightsaber which is said to be able to cut through anything save another lightsaber.
I'd put adamantium above a lightsaber every time (the LS simply do not have the offensive feats to compete).

Originally posted by Hitman911When has a lightsaber been shown to cut through material as invulnerable as adamantium (or Superman or Hulk)? For that matter, when has a lightsaber been successful in defending against supernova-level heat and blasts capable of destroying planets? Adamantium has these kinds of resistance feats. Lightsabers do not. This is why I said the LS does not have the feats to suggest it could cut through adamantium. Vibranium, is of course, a different matter.
Not entirely true.... LS are also energy/lightning deflectors; a feat that would be difficult for an Adm/Vib wielder. That's defence. As far as offence, LS sole offensive purpose is to cut through MATTER; organic and non-organic. Adm/Vib has been shown to have failed against super-powered organic matter; hulk,Superman etc..

Still, a lightsaber doesn't have sufficient offensive feats to suggest it could cut adamantium or Superman.
Originally posted by AcrosurgeMaybe so, but team 3 still pwns all and Superman......with the prep of coarse! 😛
