Plo Koon vs Darth Maul

Irrelevant tangents ftw 👆

Looking at some of those fights, I've had to lower my opinion of Plo somewhat. Granted, both Ventress and Maul are exceptional duelists- I didn't recall that he gave much ground to Ventress. Savage likewise didn't do as poorly as I recalled, he forced him back held his defense strong, and just used the mask move as a coup de gras.

ILS, I just noticed the respect threads in your sigs. I myself was going to make a Savage respect thread, so I looked it over and noticed you were missing what may be his best feat of durability: As he's deflecting the omnidirectional blaster fire, about a half dozen shots get through, and then right before he unleashes his force wave he tanks nearly a dozen more, and is still able to run to his ship.
I think I highlighted in there somewhere that he's basically blasterproof, but I guess I can update it to make a more pronounced point of it. Although Savage's armor is a big part of him surviving blaster bolts. Him tanking the impact of them without slowing down is impressive though.

Malgus vs Kenobi video just came out.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QErgpg1P-Yk&list=UUveTfx82Plnae-kvdD5XTvw

Watching it right now.

They really suck at differentiating between physical stats, or actually knowing enough about characters to be drawing conclusions on them. Kenobi is faster than Malgus, which they failed to realize.

Yeah, he doesn't go into Kenobi's speed feats as well. Malgus is roughly as fast as Jinn who is slower than ROTS Kenobi by a bit.

I think they're overemphasizing stupid shit like durability, weapons, and cybernetics lmao.

They more or less got the Force abilities section right, although they mistook Kenobi's use of Deflection for telekinesis.

Have you ever noticed that they don't have a firm grasp over the fact Force Users are blatantly superhuman? Like they'll use phrases like "nearly preternatural" or describe things as "superhuman" - well no shit, of course they are superhuman, that goes without saying. They seem to find it to be exceptional for a Jedi to be superhuman when just about all of them inherently are.

Edit: Yeah, they overemphasize stuff that doesn't matter in the slightest. Some of them go on ridiculous conjecture-filled tangents about lightsaber forms and hilts. I mean, yes, if it's something like Kenobi's Soresu vs Grievous' form, or Makashi vs Shii-Cho, then you should mention Form, but most of the time Form has nothing to do with it unless there's some kind of conflict which favours one over the other.

I was just gonna bring that up they thought deflection was tutaminus. ****ing Jensaarai doesn't even go into Malgus's best TK feats, Jensaarai said his durability was his best asset lol.

LOL Antoine just said that he believes no duelist during the CW era could defeat Kenobi in a saber duel barring Sidious or Yoda.

Jesus Christ.....

It wasn't really that bad. They could have done a lot worse.

Antoine is Reti4's *****.

Yeah so in the dueling category they failed to bring up any actual feats and accolades and instead went on an absolutely ridiculous tangent about their Forms. In their verdict they're claiming Malgus is on-par with Obi-Wan. Funny stuff.

Scratch that: They gave Malgus the edge as a duelist.

I'd love to make a youtube channel and just slaughter every video they make with a response video, or better yet get them in a forum debate.

Jensaarai is the worst imo..

He goes into personal speculation regarding the minutiae of Malgus's style, as opposed to his accomplishments in skill. He also said Malgus was weak against physical strikes, and used Malcom catching him off guard as an example lol

Yeah, he used Malcom as an example as well as Satele kicking him while he was defending against Darach's saber throw.

Their analysis of Kenobi's tactics are horrible... lol

Weren't you actually going to do that? I heard some rumors through the grape vine...

Yeah, I stopped at the outcome. While I think Malgus would win it woulldn't be by overpowering Kenobi physically or outdueling him.

When they said "lets imagine this fight" they do that in every duel, as opposed to go by who has the better showings. Also that part where Antoine said no duelist other than Sidious or Yoda could take Kenobi is hilarious, Maul is slightly more skilled, faster than Malgus, and a better duelist and has the same offensive force advantage Malgus would in a duel.

Great job Youtube guys 👆

I got started on making my first one but I've had computer problems since then.. I may pick it up some time in the future but there isn't much I can do right now. Plus I hate my voice, lol.

You can always have Reti4 narrate your videos.

Ikr? Mace Windu, Count Dooku, Anakin without CIS, Maul for either a stalemate or slim majority, hell even Ventress on any given day, are all capable of defeating him. And he should lose to Grievous if he was lacking a lightsaber form advantage.

I am seriously dreading Antoine's Darth Maul vs Anakin Skywalker video.
