Without referencing the PT, OT, eras what EU Lightsaber duelist is the most skilled and has the best showings of blade mastery? What notable duelists have they beaten, or what accolades do they have that cement them as their eras best? How would they rank in comparison to other generations on the EU?

Kun's probably the most famous EU duelist, but he's not the greatest.

The likes of Tulak Hord and Revan are army-busters, but that's not pure sabers.

I would side with probably Caedus as the best duelist (besides those from PT/OT and Luke).

Hord's got the must hype, but he has that in every category.

Actual feats not hype

Probably Caedus in terms of actual showings.
Using powerscaling, and inference, a case could be made for someone like Plagueis as well.

I don't think a case could be reasonably made for Plagueis being more skilled than Caedus.

Some examples of excellent duelists

- Tulak Hord
- Exar Kun
- Emperor's Wrath
- Emperor's Wrath II
- Hero of Tython
- Darth Caedus

Also, the lack of Krayt in this thread is disturbing.

I'm curious if Krayts got many accolades describing his skill. He's certainly up there and has immense speed and power, but I don't think I've seen his saber skills fleshed out.

mmm

He is great indeed but Lord Kas'im gets my vote from his era.

Bane > Kas'im. He was beating him handily until Kas'im busted out the dual sabers, which were a weakness Kas'im has trained him to have.

Also Bane grows considerably afterwards. Orb Bane would crush him especially.

I was joking, but Bane is Kas'im's superior. He didn't have the technical knowledge or mastery that Kas'im had, but Kas'im was losing until he used unorthodoxy to gain the advantage.

Mace.

Maybe Dooku or Yoda.

Exar Kun, perhaps even Malgus if he had a few more feats

Revan, even a guy like malgus get ass kicked by Revan... And malgus ass kick obiwan...

Revan is good against any foes, he is precise cunning acurate and powerfull.. Andhe mayby kinda abuse of exoic force power to boost his abilities..

He have raiden RV mode (remember MGS Rising Reveangeance?)

Mace Windu
Count Dooku
Yoda
Exar Kun
Revan
Kyle Katarn.

1. Kun
2. Hord
3. Caedus

Hord.

Yoda

Wait, so no characters originally from the movies, even their EU versions? If they're allowed, then Luke obviously.

Otherwise, probably Caedus.

darth MOTHERFUKING bane

Just a point of info. Orb Bane actually got a lot worse at sabers, as he explicity stated that he became lazy with his form and instead relied mainly on his brute strength and the orbalisk's durability.

This is one of the reasons why he eventually decided to get rid of the orbalisks.

Read Nepth's post.

Jacen Solo.

Jacen or Kun... Probably Jacen.

Krayt's showing against Karness Muur or Caedus's showing against Luke.

Lolno. His bladwork became less refined because the orbalisks were that ****ing good, he didn't have to pay attention to defense or do anything fancy in terms of bladework because it was more effective to be brutally efficient in a reckless, simple assault. He became far more deadly, not to mention considerably more powerful. That's why Zannah had to persuade him to get rid of them, there was no way she could kill him if he had them.



Anyway the HoTlander should get a mention here.

Nah DOE Zannah would've mind****ed ROT Bane.

Random impressive feats:

Luke in TUF
Meetra vs. the Korriban academy tbh
