Vader's not dodging the amulet blasts. If he gets by that, then it'll be more difficult for Kun.
Where is it stated that Exar Kun created his won unique form?

If it's not stated in the comic (I believe it was but it's been a while) it most certainly has been in sourcebooks and the reference guides. I believe Advent posted the quotes a while ago.

Crossing blades with some featless Knight isn't impressive. Developing a form doesn't showcase combat skill.
Sylvar isn't featless. She was able to scar Exar Kun, kill a hssiss and many massassi warriors and defeated an entire hive of Kiltik. For reference an average Kiltik looks like this:
And she killed their queen which looks like this:
She was also strong enough to hold a fat man off the ground with one arm casually.
And she was seriously pissed at Uliq making the feat even better. The fact is that it is an extremely impressive feat since Uliq did it completely cut off from the Force, relying solely on his skill and physical conditioning.
And people (in and out of universe) consider Windu a lightsaber prodigy since he refined Juyo into Vapaad so why should we not feel the same for Exar Kun?

True, but Vader might stand a chance at tanking them since his armor is really resistant.

Can you find them? I'll do a quick scan of the comic.I know his weapon is fairly unique but I've never heard he created his own style.
I'll try, they should be on this site somewhere. Either way I believe Intrepid has access to them though I wouldn't be surprised if she kept them secret.

May I ask what Dooku has done, specifically, with a lightsaber?
He held off Yoda, and then faced with RotS Kenobi and Anakin he managed to KO Kenobi before falling.
He'd also held off Anakin+Obi-Wan on several prior occasions, and outmatched Ventress.

I get extremely leery when people start tossing 'featless' around.
Because a lot of the time, the force users in question do have multiple combats under their belts. Then those fights are in turn dismissed as against 'featless,' and when what those have done are brought up... well, long story short, it's a complete devaluation of the term 'featless' and more a dismissal of feats than an actual lack of feats.
If you have to go multiple degrees out, then it's not featless. Sylvar's fought Exar Kun, Ulic Qel Droma, and a variety of tough/skilled non-forceusers. That's plenty of feats.

But Sidious has a vast array of other feats.
All those feats were either (a) against featless people, (b) against people who's feats are only against featless people, or (c) against people who's feats are only against people who's feats are against featless people.
Therefore, featless.
Orrr one can stop pretending that featless is an endlessly transitive property/fights against people without a wide array of other feats are still, in themselves, feats.
