Darth Sidious (one lightsaber) -vs- Savage Opress and Maul

Location: Mandalore.

Starting Distance Apart: 10 Feet.

Just as in TCW; in the Mandalorian city, cargo facility.

Maul and Opress find themselves face to face with Sidious.

Except Sidious only has one lightsaber.

Does this mean death for the Dark Lord? Or does it not make a difference at all?

Scenario 1: Sidious fights the Zabrak brothers in the exact same situation as the TCW episode, with one lightsaber to use.

Scenario 2: The Mandalorians have discovered Sidious' presence upon his entering the planet, and Sidious knows he must kill both brothers in 1 Minute and then escape - is he capable of this, or no?

In both scenarios, he has one lightsaber - just as when he fought the Council members.

Sidious Forcepwns.

With one lightsaber?! Egads, the brothers stomp. No one can take on two opponents with one lightsaber.

😆

Not even Barriss????????

I'm ashamed of you son. For you have strayed from the Path of Offee and now your soul is assigned to hell. May Bandon have merci on you.

Barriss is an exception to all things, my English friend.

As I meant to make the Poll multiple choice, I was distracted by Nephthys.

I've arranged to have that issue remedied. 😮‍💨

There is an oddly alluring element to my beloved manservant, isn't there?

Anyway, the child is correct in this scenario. Sidious annihilates them utterly with the Force.

Bait thread.

Sidious still wins, but he will have a harder time in the Lightsaber fight.

He's very charming.

Does he need offensive Force-usage to dispatch them?

And can he kill them both within one minute, per the second Scenario?

Well, Sidious is no Obi-Wan Kenobi, but I'm sure he can muster a victory in less than a minute with his adequate Force powers.

If Sidious and Kenobi could have won with a single Saber then they should have proven it by doing just that! But they didn't. The writers specifically had those defeats taking place with 2 Sabers..

And in swordsmanship?

With one lightsaber? Well... it's not like Sidious has ever laid waste to multiple opponents while wielding only one blade.

I'm pretty sure that 2 (3, really, if you count Savage's double blades) > 1 mathematically, so Sidious can't possibly win with one lightsaber.

Only Barriss could do so well.

I really meant that more for Obi-Wan. With Sidious I should have said "If he could fight off both brothers JUST AS EASILY with 1 then he should have done so to prove that."

And you should have just addressed me in that thread instead of making an obvious bait thread.

Mhm.

Also who here thinks that Kenobi is a substantially better swordsman than Count Dooku?

If there's no one, then can you care to explain why his Saber performance against Maul and Opress was substantially better than Dooku's performance against Opress and Ventress if 2 Sabers makes ZERO difference at tackling 2 Lightsaber wielding Opponents.

Motherfvcking miracles bro. :0)

HaHa!

Filoni should have stated that when asked about Kenobi's victory:

"Look it was just a F***ing Miracle.. The guy should really be dead. He's such a lucky B***ard!"

F*cking lightsabers, right? How do they work?
