Exar Kun vs Dooku

You are truly a tangle of psychological dysfunction, my son.

SJones is a bitter, bitter woman. lol

Also, thanks NewGuy.

Actually, the only thing I might object to is the idea that Sidious is physically stronger than Kun. Everything else seems spot-on.

What makes you doubt Sidious's physical superiority to Exar Kun? Am I forgetting something he's done?

Shattering Vodo's staff was pretty impressive.

I actually consider crushing that Holocron more impressive.

Nonetheless, I still don't see it actually putting him above Sidious in terms of physical prowess. I mean, him holding off Maul and Savage simultaneously is a pretty beastly feat. Savage alone is a hulking rage monster that can knock Dooku on his ass, and beat Ventress silly. Maul with his force-enhanced strength was able to power through Opress in their short little match. Sidious holding them both off at the same time while cackling like a madman is pretty beastly.

Yup. And you're singlehandedly destroying the credibility of anyone you agree with🙂

Not as beastly as shattering a holocron or holding up the senator with one arm.

Aren't holocrons pretty fragile?

And true.

And all the while, you're destroying what's left of your own, Jones.

A new kid doesn't possess the credibility to call into question anyone else's. Keep trying though, you're almost as amusing as Sidious66.

I seem to recall holocrons are fragile. I think smashing Vodo's stick is better.

No, what Sidious does to Opress and Maul is far more impressive given their own strength feats.

Based on what?

No, it speaks to Sidious' skill as a fighter more than anything else.

They're pretty delicately structured internally, but being devices that can survive for millennium and were practically designed to be a forever holding instrument of knowledge, then yeah, I'd assume they're pretty sturdy, no?

And it should be noted that Ventress is pretty strong. In the first episode of TCW, she crushed a metal comlink by squeezing it with one hand. And like NewGuy said, she was nothing to Savage in pure strength.

Not sure how "new" I am, considering I've been here actively for about a year now. 'Spose I am comparatively to some others.

That would make you new. In any case, try making an argument and I'll try refuting that argument. Sounds like a nice idea, huh?

Yeah, when he first awoke from the Nightsister's ritual he instinctively strangled her, and she might have died then and there without interruption, unable to break his grip. He's a physical beast.

No, I'm referring to his ability to keep them both at bay with one arm each in saber lock, despite their immense strength.

My only issue with proving Sidious's "strength" by referring him holding off Maul and Savage simultaneously is this: Didn't Kenobi do the same thing? Wasn't he in a Saber lock with both of them for a few seconds?

I think matching Mace Windu in strength throughout their entire fight might be the more impressive strength feat.

Kenobi didn't do it nearly as easily as Sidious did. Besides, Kenobi's the guy that had slugging matches with Anakin and Grievous--Both respective physical beasts.

No, I'm referring to his ability to keep them both at bay with one arm each in saber lock, despite their immense strength.

If you think that shows more physical strength than smashing a holocron or holding up a being with one hand, then that is your right.
