Kurgan Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 We've only seen Anakin best two people in a saber duel... Dooku and Obi-Wan, and in the latter case his opponent threw the fight. So really we have only vague ideas of his force potential. He kills a bunch of kids and maybe some intructors off camera. The rest is speculation (or you'd have to rely on EU sources).

RaV™ Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 Mace is the better swordsman, but Yoda is much stronger in the force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kensai Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Mace is the better swordamna, because he isn't computer animated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsaberpro Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Well, if you ask me, Anakin is the best, but if you're talking about the worst, that would be General Grievous, cause of not being able to remember the button combo for unsheathing his extra 2 arms and lightsabers.

MachineCult Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Anakin is the best? What are you basing that on? General Grievous defeated alot of jedi so i don't know what the hell you are talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Merlow Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 its such a tough question but i read somewhere that Mace was the only one to know some super lightsabre technique. So i think mace but yoda being more powerful in the force Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 IIRC in the Star Wars Ultimate visual guide it says Yoda is the best, followed by Mace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthAve Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 mmm, tough question. I think Emperor Palpatine is the best swordsman. If he can take down 3 Jedi Masters in under 1 minute, You've gotta be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-8252 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 mmm, tough question. I think Emperor Palpatine is the best swordsman.

DarthAve Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 sorry, that's my problem for just joining in on a board. Yoda's way better than Mace cause' Yoda can hold off one of the most powerful sith lords and live to tell the tail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Sitherino Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I stand by my statement, while Yoda with all abilities combined is a skilled swordsman, with a dimished force ability he'd be nowhere near comparable to Mace's skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobQel-Droma Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I would say Mace, he is not as powerful as Yoda in the force, but he is obviously the swordfighter. In the visual dictionary and elsewhere he is described as the "best living lightsaber fighter" and is the only master of Form VII/Vaapad. He was actually able to defeat Sidious with his blade, but was not as powerful in the force as Yoda. The fight between Yoda and Palps was more of a force power duel than a swordfight, and old Palpy was a powerful user of the dark side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze629 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 mmm, tough question. I think Emperor Palpatine is the best swordsman. If he can take down 3 Jedi Masters in under 1 minute, You've gotta be good. He is unquestionably good with the sabre. No denying that from me. Mace DID defeat him though. Anakin interfered and we all know what happened. Oh well. I take comfort in the fact that Mace did defeat The Emperor but Anakin fulfilled his destiny. As a result, we got 3 more movies out of it LOL!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 I remember reading that too Rob. I also recall separate interviews with Lucas and Jackson that said Mace was the ultimate swordsman of the time. Earlier in this thread several times, people gave sources that said Mace had been bested by two opponents: Yoda and Dooku. I would say this is evidence enough that Yoda is better.
