Darth Caedus vs. Yoda

Combatants: Darth Caedus, prior to his injuries vs. RotS Yoda.

Setting: Aboard the Anakin Solo, providing many environmental factors to consider.

Rules: N/A.

Since the age of Katarn is apparently over, let's substitute Caedus in to temporarily take over while I go back to the work shops to relentless prove Katarn is the single most powerful Force user ever to have existed. Currently, my research has shown that his midichlorian count is above even Nebar Foxis and he has the Kaiburr Crystal. Given that he developed most, if not all of the dark side Force powers, and was the original Sith Lord, I'd say Kyle is well on his way back to his rightful position as #1.

Ignoring that inane drivel, FIGHT!

im tempted to say yoda but i dont actually know enough about caedus to make an intelligent statement either way.

so ill just go with what i know. from a dueling perspective the location of the fight can make or break yodas offensive capabilities. if caedus can bring the fight into a cramped area such as a corridor that will severely limit yodas maneuverability options, which kind of makes up the crux of his lightsaber technique. in a hallway hed essentially be forced to fight at caedus' pace. so with the setting in mind id be willing to give the slight majority to caedus.

i cant say definitively who would really win because i dont know if caedus can stand-up to yoda with force abilities. didnt caedus nearly get killed by mara jade?

What's Caedus going to do? Flow walk back in time to stop Yoda's birth? Yoda has this.

Yoda Own him

It isn't a joke. It would be a good fight.

Yes, but that was because Mara used her wits and used the environment to her advantage. She knew that she couldn't match him in power.

Caedus, more often than not. As Polaski brought up, Yoda's fighting style require extensive acrobatics. He employs this against both Dooku and Sidious. If Caedus was fighting smart, which we know he will be, he'd use the environment to his advantage as he's far familiar with the terrain. Yoda's style is aggressive and offensive, making it much easier for Jacen to lead him where he wants or gather objects to interrupt his jumps.

I see 3 people voted for Caedus, 4 for Yoda. Anyone of you care to share why you voted that way?

You don't think Yoda will be using his aggressive, acrobatic style to push Jacen back to where he wants him? It seems like you think Jacen is much smarter than Yoda.

Yoda's also small and more mobile, what's your point? Is there ANY reason Caedus would win in any type of fight with Yoda?

I'm not sure since no ones provided of much of anything for either side. My post was an attempt to draw out a discussion. Now that you're here: enlighten us as to why Yoda wins. 😄

Smaller, better with a saber, stronger in the force. I'm not sure what force techniques caedus has that will be applicable to a fight with Yoda.

By the same token, Caedus is bigger and physically stronger. Elaborate on how this helps him win the fight.

You'll need to prove that.

stronger in the force.

Ditto the above.

What do you mean? Yoda isn't invincible, and his main source of Force attacks are TK based, which Caedus possesses. While Force lightning may be blocked by a saber or without, there's still a chance to create an opening for it.

What is Caedus's greatest showing in TK?

Luke easily used TK to pin Jacen to his chair while Yoda and Sidious were relativly even in their force contest atop the senate pod.

Would that suggest Yoda has more force power than Jacen?

Not really, as Luke is way above RotS Yoda and Sids.

Jacen isn't Sidious and Luke isn't Yoda, so they cannot be compared.

Besides, in the duel on the Anakin Solo, Jacen kept Luke pinned down to the wall after he threw thorns onto him. The book says that Caedus "took his time rising" while keeping him locked down, meaning he wasn't exerting himself in doing such.

Perhaps he was 'taking his time rising' because he was exerting himself so much.

Why aren't Luke and Yoda comparable? Same with Sidious and Caedus.
