Tyranus vs. Maul, Opress & Ventress

An aimless Ventress hesitantly joins forces with Maul upon discovery that he intends to (literally) axe her ex-employer, putting aside differences with Savage. The trio invade Serenno and arrive at Dooku's majestic palace to remove the Count's crown jewels.

The fight takes place outside and each fighter is armed with his or her standard weapons and will seek victory by any means necessary.

Hmm... The trio takes this, imo.

Dooku was hard-pressed against Ventress and Savage; add Maul and I don't think he survives.

Consider the drastically altered environment. The battle [I should have clarified] will occur outside the palace, allowing each fighter considerable room to maneuver as well as the presence of projectiles (the massive obelisks that bracket the central walkway) to bring to bear.

Edit: Nvm, I did clarify

Would be a good match to watch. I believe Dooku is superior to each individual seperately, but the three of them together could take Dooku down.

(1) Savage is possessed of such fortitude and physicality that he cannot be ignored, safely dispatched, or even endured for any length of time when
(2) Ventress serves as a fairly wily and competent distraction in an interim, which there shouldn't ever be because
(3) Maul is at at least as (a) able a duelist as Ventress (b) strong in the Force as Savage and (c) competent at handling Force-lightning as either of them. I make the relatively safe assumption that he can deflect it, but a wayward gout probably wouldn't put him down for long anyway; as proven by Anakin - in TWC with Dooku and TFU with Starkiller - a cyborg doesn't take necessarily catastrophic damage from lightning, and Maul's physiology is buffered by severe enough conditioning that he should be able to brush it off. Anyway if Ventress can do it once he probably can too.

In conclusion: a relentless onslaught from Savage, Maul, and Ventress would [rapidly] deplete the Count's strength and reserves of Force-energy (ala Stover's Sith, so mostly Savage) until he is simply battered into exhaustion and slaughtered.

edit: He'll last a little longer in the open.

I agree that this 'strike team' might be too much for Count Dooku.

Maul's the strongest of the lot, and I think powerful enough to give Tyrannus a fight one on one. Throw in the two others and, yea, trio wins.

The trio wins, Dooku could maybe win by spamming lightning, but that'll only work so long.

And it's pretty hard to spam lightning at three people at once. Two is doable (if difficult, if they have lightning defense), but you only have two hands.

Dooku electrocuted Ventress and her companions in "Nightsisters" simultaneously.

Trio wins. Too many lightsabers to defend against.

Tyranus goes down in a hard fight.

Will no one defend the Count? Where's Janus when you need him?

Count Dooku can be effective with his telekinetic abilities but this depends upon the setting.

We also need to keep in mind that if the likes of Opress could Force push Darth Sidious........

Honestly, I think they would stomp Dooku.

Who do you think wins, Temp? Don't you think Dooku would have a much better chance against just Maul and Opress?

Not sure. Dooku struggled against Ventress and Opress close quarters. In that environment, the addition of Maul would mean a quick and ugly death for the Count.

But in an open environment with plenty of shit to throw at them?

Dooku kills them all with lightning.

You will do battle with Eminence on this subject for my amusement slash arousal. You may begin.

Maul, Opress & Ventress?

I can see Dooku squeaking past Maul and Opress.

But throw in Ventress, and he gets overwhelmed.
