Fleeing =/= Tactical retreat. He's smart enough not to get close to a lightsaber. Boba being on his knees is hardly conclusive of him losing, people fall down in fights all the time lol.

I think we can rule out "tactical retreat" as a theory, i mean does fleeing and coming back to get your butt whooped six/seven times sound tactical?

Eh, who said he was getting his butt whooped in any of those instances? You're referring to gameplay mechanics. All we know for certain is that Fett uses hit and run tactics on Jaden and then decides to leave after a while. Lol.

Crap, lol yeah my bad. Still, the fact that Jaden kept up with Boba is impressive given his age at the time.

When someone puts you on your knees and you run away immediately afterwards I wouldn't say it was a draw.

It is, although something irks me about a thirteen year old giving Boba trouble lol.

But then it's obviously not as simple as that. Jaden could have Force pushed Boba or anything, and even then simply being on your knees doesn't mean you've lost the fight. Boba was more than capable of getting up and potentially killing Jaden. But seeing as he likes to pick his fights, and there was no bounty on Jaden, he didn't see him as worth the risk of a direct fight. He wasn't running away, he chose to leave, and there's no evidence that Jaden could have taken him.

I wish that when I was a thirteen year that I could have gone toe-to-toe with Boba Feat, slay legions of Stormtroopers and DoR, summon one of the most powerful and difficult to conjure Force techniques as the opposite alignment, topple pillars, jump 25 feet in the air. move giant boulders with my mind, defeat Haxvion, and an ancient Sith specter. I must have been a fetus in comparison.

Does not irk me at all. No non-force sensitive should ever take on a semi-trained Jedi in a fight without extraordinary circumstances. There is no reason why any Jedi couldn't just immobilize Fett's limbs and ragdoll him at will. Especially given that most Force users display physical abilities that are blatantly supernatural.

Going by our standards, Boba's physical displays are also supernatural, same with his father's who he is an identical clone of. Force users being superhuman isn't exactly news either. Batman is considered superhuman in real terms, even if DC class him as "peak human".

It's not as easy as you make out to ragdoll people. For the more basic Force Users it still requires concentration, and Fett's overwhelming armament and accuracy would allow him to kill plenty of Force sensitives.

Don't be an idiot. Nothing Boba Fett has ever done can compare to Anakin Skywalker falling tens of thousands of feet and landing on a metallic airspeeder, decelerating at a rate of potentially thousands of G's, without any physical injury.


same with his father's who he is an identical clone of.

Qui Gon and Obi Wan can put their faces next to superheated durasteel without feeling any discomfort. Don't pretend Jango Fett has ever done anything comparable.

This is either a rhetorical strategy or immense stupidity on your part; you think that because you can apply the same label to two different feats, they must be equivalent in magnitude. As though there weren't different levels of supernatural. 🙄


It's not as easy as you make out to ragdoll people.

It is when your target literally has no ability to even understand the medium that you are using. Any Jedi who can do as much as lift a 75 kilogram object should have no problem ragdolling Fett, let alone Jedi such as Anakin that can rip bolted machinery.

So what? They can still do it casually.

No, because any trained Force user would rip his blaster out of his hands and then crush his neck with a gesture.

Pretty much.

1. No... but you don't need to do that to be deemed supernatural, lol. I didn't compare Boba to the likes Anakin or Obi-Wan, so you're arguing a point I didn't support in the first place.

2. Again, you keep bringing Anakin into the equation even though I didn't bring him up in the first place. Strawman ftw.

It ultimately depends on the individual. You obviously don't know much about Boba Fett to be making the claims you're making, and I'm honestly alright with leaving you that way. If you want to believe that any padawan who can lift a decent sized rock can kill Boba Fett, that's your warped sense of reality which you are more than welcome to.

So then you're just being a pedantic twit by pointing out that Boba Fett may be *technically* supernatural by RL standards, and failing to actually connect this to the topic. That makes more sense, given yourself.


2. Again, you keep bringing Anakin into the equation even though I didn't bring him up in the first place. Strawman ftw.

Yeah, let's pretend that all of my points revolve around Anakin, so that you can conveniently ignore everything you've no counter for by cherry picking what you want to respond to.

Notice how you vaguely accuse me of not knowing much about Boba, vaguely disagree with my assertions, and vaguely appeal to your own incredulity, and then refuse to actually explain your position or give concrete arguments for your sake? You are a horrible debater.

Dude, you're really wounding me here with all of that mean text. Please stop or I'll have to call the cyber bully police on you for nastiness.

Your ability to make ad hominem fallacies is almost as pathetic as your obvious perma-virgin immaturity. It's like, every debate I've seen you get yourself into, you've resorted to ^this after quickly exhausting everything you've had to say. 🙄

LOL

Perma-virgin? This just went from stupid to GG.

Eh, I'd be worried more than anything for the guy who's trying to accuse people of virginity on a Star Wars debating forum. Only really shows his own insecurity in his manhood.

The real hilarity is that you've abandoned any pretense of actually debating the subject matter. You come in and exchange blows for a few rounds, then cherry pick a single insult as an excuse to just go off the deep end. It's not conducive to intelligent discussion, and it's not very indicative of your own intellectual faculties either. I don't know what else to say, ILS.
