Where is Qui-Gon Jinn?

Whatever gives you pleasant dreams bro

Jinn may not be a match for Maul, but where is the source that says Maul had him dead to rights on Tatooine?

Even so, it's patently obvious that he is a greater challenge to Maul than Mundi is to Grevious so idk what Zig is onto here

Not convinced. Mundi had more help and got stomped worse.

The help is irrelevant. It would be like citing the significance of Fisto, Tinn and Kolar to the outcome of Mace and Sidious.

The main point is in the circumstances and what they mean. A low point in mental and physical energy causes GM Luke to drop several tiers. Mundi is in that position against Grievous, and lasts a while on his own off panel.

Then you have to factor in Styles. Grievous is a cyborg with rotatable joints and vertebrates wielding three lightsabers. This is unseen territory for Mundi,

On the other hand, Jinn is fresh against maul with the latter sporting a classic stance with a training weapon.

Nothing personal. Don't have time for a CaV lol

Above Koon, below the B-Team.

Will reply when on a pc

He is probably around the level of Koon, above Tiin and Kolar but below Kit

Doesn't Koon have some pretty good acolades?

Jinn peeled over after 35 seconds with Maul.

TPM novel:

Qui-Gon had barely managed to scramble up the rampway and into the interior of the ship before the hatch sealed and the Nubian began to accelerate. He lay on the cool metal floor of the entry, his clothing dusty and damp with his sweat, his body bruised and battered. He breathed deeply, waiting for his pounding heart to quiet. He had barely escaped with his life, and the thought was worrisome. His opponent was strong and had tested him severely. He was getting old, he decided, and he did not like the feeling.

Junior novel:

He made it! "Qui-Gon's on board, " he told Olie as the ramp closed. "Get us out of here!"

Without waiting to see whether the pilot obeyed, Obi-Wan started for the main hall. The young boy followed him. They found Qui-Gon in a dusty heap just inside the entry, covered with sweat and breathing hard. I've never seen him in such bad shape after a fight! If we hadn't gotten to him when we did...

Probably others.

After running for a considerable amount of time in the heat of Tantooine.

Prove this actually mattered.

35-45 seconds seems to be about how long a fight between a 7 and 8, or 8 and 9 will take in pure sabers, give or take some time for other factors.

The exhaustion is from the fight.

Qui gon is running at a pace that allows 9 year old Anakin to stay behind in close proximity. And Anakin isn't breathing heavily or collapsing as soon as he gets on the ship.

I'll totally prove how running Kilometers through the desert of Tantooine does nothing to your stamina.

Jedi can spar at high intensity for hours without breaking a sweat. Maul actually had a wound and had been fighting random ****ers before taking Jinn on, you don't hear him whining about it.

Jinn didn't whine about running either. Anyway I want to see what other people have to say before stepping in.

This is Star Wars Jedi, Not fat peoples boot camp US.

Probably Koon level.

But yeah Fisto has the best feats of the B-Team, Koon and Jinn, due to handling Greivous (even chopping off an arm) and legitimately blocking a few Saber blows from an all out Sidious (opposite Windu of course).

Don't think Windu being there mattered, IIRC Sidious was so fast that Windu didn't really have a chance to defend anyone except himself.
