Kas'im vs. HoT vs. Mara Jade (sabers only fight)

Neutral setting.

Who wins?

Hero imo.

What defines a 'neutral setting'?

Because 'flat, featureless plane' is actually disadvantageous to Mara. It's not 'neutral.'

Given a reasonable location, however, Mara can assassinate Hero and move on.

I doubt it, the Hero has beaten an invisible Sith while dodging a space-laser. She couldn't sense him at the time either iirc.

By the end of the game though the Hero can sense things occurring across the galaxy.

A random Sith who can turn invisible is one thing. The one woman in existence who's been trained by Sidious and is married to GM Luke...is something else again. I imagine Mara's stealth is soundly superior to random Sith dude.

While dodging a space-laser. Also neither of those things you mentioned indicated why she could assassinate the Hero. She has great Force senses.

Also 'flat, featureless plane' is neutral. Just because it doesn't play to Mara's strengths doesn't make it unfair.

It's supposed to be a pure lightsaber fight. She shouldn't be allowed to use cloaking.

Well, Mara doesn't USE just lightsabers. She's got vibroblades, crush gauntlets, blasters and several other toys jedi in general just don't carry.

And she's got HTH.

Mara is actually a skilled duelist, she doesn't have to rely on her assassin tricks to be able to kill people.

So what you're saying is that she loses.

Not to kill everyone, no. Hero is sufficiently skilled, however, that it'll probably take assassin tricks to get rid of her.

...Then again...

Mara can fight off Lumiya.

And as much as Kas'im's a non factor, Mara might be able to use him to set up an assassination move. (Like a D&D Rogue setting up flanking...)

Hero of Tython.

I'm siding HoT, too.

Lumiya couldn't even beat Nelani in a fight and got her ass kicked by Tresina Lobi.

Not sure.

Kas'im dies any moment he tries to engage either.

Mara's feat against Caedus impresses me more than anything from Hero who has largely fought and only killed nobodies in comparison.

What's the difference between hot and Mara Jade again?

Mara Jade IS HOT...

Oh, wait, you meant Hero.

Mara Jade Skywalker is older and more experienced, mostly. And has been trained by the most powerful Sith AND the most powerful Jedi (that she married) that ever lived.

I thought Mara Jade was hot?

Sure, but the Force gets stronger over time. Sidious and Luke are far superior to the trainers of the other two.

And experience counts for a lot. Mara at 57 just plain has more years under her belt.
