Did he? It's been a damn long time sense I watched the movie.

Maul relied more on fighting ability than force powers.

I just rewatched the fight and I stand corrected Maul did use a Force push at the end. Though it's importent to note its placemnet in the fight. Obi-Wan was directly infornt of him less the an arms length away and they had just gotten done with one of those Hollywood push each others sword stand offs. Giving Maul time to focus.

There's not much of the force used in fights really...it was more used in AOTC and ROTS

Of which Maul was not part. So it doesn't much help him, but even in AOTC we have Jango taking out Force users with out getting picked up and thrown back by their "awsome Force powers".

Never said he was 😉 I was just saying in General, kinda like people have mentioned Obi-Wan even though he's not involved in this fight

I bet you are gonna say he doesnt have Precog too.

facepalm

Ah, the ever elusive facepalm. You tryng to deny that a Jedi/Sith fighting without the force is essentially blinded?

You say Darth Maul will use Precog to win this fight?

how?

He probably means short term precog, which they use in battle, such as when deflecting blaster bolts.

I bet you're all thinking he wins because his lightsaber will cut Gambit's staff in half and then him. Here's a rule: Gambit's staff can't get sliced by Maul's lightsaber and Maul can't use his force powers. The first round is them wielding their weapons but in the second round it's H2H. Now decide who will win.

So this fight really isn't Gambit Vs Darth Maul, it's Gimp-Maul Vs. Gambit.

Clarified.

'Round here you run into alot of Star Wars fanboys who claim all Jedi's can use the force to see the future and can never be beaten.

If Maul has full use of his force powers, yes, few can beat him in battle.

Precog allows the Jedi/Sith to know what their opponent is going to do before they do it. How can you say this is not an advantage?

Mauls lost to Obi Wan...twice, Obi Wan technically lost to Jango in the movie and plus Obi Wan was more skilled in AOTC than he was TPH
ABC arguments are worth absolute shit when it comes to Star Wars.

Obi Wan lost to Maul b/c of the same resaon Predator lost to Danny Glover. Maul was clearly better than both Jinn and Kenobi while fihting both at the same time. And also Kenobi wasn't trying to kill Jango.

TPM Darth Maul>AOTC Kenobi

So Darth Maul knew that Obi Wan was about to cut him in half?

Obviously, he just stood there and watched the whole sequence play out.

The films had already been made w/ Alec Guiness. Kenobi couldn't be killed off.

Credit the writers/Lucas for that BS.

Obi Wan lost to maul? Hmmm funny, I seem to remember Darth Maul being the one who got split in two, plus there is a story between ROTS and ANH where Maul comes back and again gets beaten by Kenobi...may not mean much but I'm putting it out there.

Never said he was trying to kill Jango, but no matter how you look at it Jangon still beat Obi Wan and he was still in one piece at the end of the fight

My fault I meant to say Kenobi beat Maul.
