DarthBuu Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 WHICH IS BETTER?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBrate Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Its "WHO is better?" You uneducated twit! Dooku would win. Powerful in the force and well trained in sabre fencing which enables him to fight more effectively against other melee opponents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi-Ghendu Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 i chose maul due to his speed but compare the too in knowledge or wisdom...most def is dhooku! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D@rth M@ul Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 I have to admitt, they make dooku a more powerful character. Honestly, It's not a fair fight, so Dooku wins because he is an older more experienced former Jedi Knight, while Darth Maul is a sith lord who has only trained under Palpatine, who infact doesn't use a light saber so he couldn't teach Maul anything about light sabers while dooku was a jedi knight at once (yoda's padawan). This is made apparent because Darth maul use's a Double bladed light saber, which is only used in jedi training. Dooku is the worse character ever in Star wars, I mean I'm glad he chopped off anakin's arm, because he was gay in AOTC but, they made obi-wan suck against him. Darth Maul is truly the greatest villian in starwars and....dare I say to hit the silver screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorganfloss Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Maul for three reasons. 1.Hes got a frikkin 2bladed saber 2.Hes the coolest lookin sith ever 3.Unlike Dooku, you can use the insult "Youre lightsabers bent":D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ondraedan Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Dooku would win, no contest. Obi-wan slapped around Maul like a naughty monkey, and Dooku did the same to Obi-wan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obi-wan slapped around Maul like a naughty monkey, and Dooku did the same to Obi-wan. I think your mistaken boy. If memory serves me correct, maul (having no jedi council training in the art of lightsabers) ****ing "spanked" qui-con and Obi-wan at the same time until they got seperated. Then he, alone took out qui-con very nicely I might add. Thereafter, filled with rage Obi struck hard and fast to a stunned Maul. Even after Maul's lightsaber was cut in two he knocked obi into a melting hole chamber type thing. Where obi pathetically held on for his dear life. And of course using the force he took his fallen master's light saber and did a somersault to a exposed Darth Maul and sliced him in two. So put that in your pipe and smoke it. sorry if I got carried away, its just that Darth Maul did not get spanked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dath Maximus Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 If Yoda has to beat Dooku when obi wan is a jedi knight, after obi wan beat Maul then Dooku could kill Maul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vestril Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 sorry if I got carried away, its just that Darth Maul did not get spanked. No...he got spanked. I mean, most of that s*** I couldn't do at all, but if someone jumped over my head while using the Force to call a lightsaber to him, I'd like to think that I would have the sense to move my lightsaber up. Padawan Obi>Maul Dooku>Knight Obi Therefore Dooku>Maul I'm wondering what those who actually know how to use swords have to say (I can fence...but that's utterly different).

yoda_alex Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 1. Look at vestrils post 2. Dookus lightsabre is specifically designed for use against lightsabre wielding enemies, but obi wan's isn't, so if obi can take maul, dooku can take maul. 3. Dooku has lightning.

Djinn Altis{S} Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Dooku... from what I can tell her was obviously much more educated in the ways of the force, Maul could only pull of a measly push. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedantic Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Dooku rocks! I like him so much more as villain than I did Maul. He's just so much cooler. I would have to say Dooku is the most powerful Jedi, except Yoda and maybe Mace Windu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoda_623 Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 I like Maul.But I would have to say Dooku would win. If Maul was better he wouldn't of died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Facism Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 First off, Dooku is lame and as far as Dooku stronger? In the movie he was, but it was contrived. I would say Maul would win, because he did beat both Obi wan and Qui gon , but lucas lamed out and had Maul do something stupid. The only reason Dooku was made strong,was so( Lucas who is a lame sci fi writer )wanted to overshadow Maul. For the same reasons I've explained with the Vader thoery. If the story was written well then we could have intelligent( lol if you could say that in a vs thread.=) conversation about who versus who battle. In comparison in rotj the way luke is beefed up and destroys vader with little light sabre training is ridiculous. Honestly it's skewed ,if you guys think about it. Lol I will explain in detail in my next reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JandoFett1842 Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Dooku is a wuss, he cant fight without the force, he'll just lightning Maul, and backstab him, but without that, maul would kick his focking ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryd0r Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Maul only beat Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan because he had a double ender. Anyone could probably own Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon on his own with his saber. If Maul had a regular saber, he would have got his ass kicked. Dooku is a far superior force user, he beat Anakin even when Anakin had two sabers. He beat Obi-Wan too and he managed to survive a while against Yoda. Darth Maul wouldn't have survived 5 seconds of that. However I would like to point out that Obi-Wan's fighting was better in Episode 1 when he was a padawan and it gradually gets worse every movie.

Tiran Dev Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 There are allot of good posts in this thread,.. My simple opinion is that Maul would win. Now im going to try and not downplay Dooku or any of his loyal followers on this thread,...but Darth Maul has to be the the single most impressive lightsaber-combatist since the weapon was created. He can not only wield it with pricision and skill,...but just think,... A lightsaber can be as dangerous to the person who wields it as the person on the other end.. Maul must have incredible reflexes to stop himself from whipping it into his own face,.... Secondly,...notice how in the case of both Qui-Gon and Obi-Won,..the reason they lost was because of Maul's double-blade adv. Without it,..i agree he wouldn't be half as effective It would be a good match,..but i still believe that the age-old remnantof the Sith Maul would overcome Dooku and split him in half.....Ironic,..isn't it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vestril Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 In comparison in rotj the way luke is beefed up and destroys vader with little light sabre training is ridiculous. It's hard to say how much training he got. Lucas couldn't show Yoda training Luke with the lightsaber for obvious reasons, but it's entirely possible he trained him. Especially when you considered that Luke was doing well in ESB up until Vader used the Force to hurl him out a window... It stands to reason that if Luke concentrated, and fell deeply into the Force (albeit the Dark Side) he would be able to do even better, bear in mind that the Force gives you better reflexes and strength.

D@rth M@ul Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 Well after looking at my points and then looking at the dooku lovers points, its like you guys didnt read what I wrote. "Dooku has lightning" , yes he does, but using the force against a light saber fight is not what happens. Its not like a code or anything its more important than that, you just dont do it. Now in the case of 2 opponents then it is okay. Plus like I said earlier, Maul was not trained in the art of Lightsabering by a jedi council or anyone for that matter, he picked it up on his own, and very well I might add. Also Double Saber's are the hardest to use, and jedi's only use them when they are training so they can learn to defend and strike at two different targets thus developing multi-task skills. Also, if you want to go by just looks, if you think dooku in anyway out-does maul in appearence, well then I think you have some issues and your mom forced you to watch little house on the prairie all your life. And maul didn't use the force to punch obi wan, he force "Pushed" him. Oh and you know how you say that if maul was using only a lightsaber he would have got his ass kicked, hrmmm thats funny, as I remember it, maul, an apprentice, whooped qui-con's long haired ass with just one end ignited on his saber. Plus qui-con was a jedi-master. Dooku took on a padawan and a jedi master and was more trained so he hurt them good. Maul took on a 2 jedi masters (if you not that qui-con thought obi was able to take the trails before the battle) and He killed one and almost got the other. Hence, darth maul pwns. But it all boils down to the fact that Good prevails over Evil in showbiz and eventually dooku will get pwned in Three and we can all make fun of how Jar Jar, the goofy gungan, accidently turned on dooku's light saber whilst it was in his pants or something of that matter -D@rth M@ul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
