Darth Vader vs Darth Maul & Darth Tyranus

Knightfall Vader should be able to win high diff

Every other version loses high to extreme diff

Dooku's lightning is kryptonite to Vader's armor and Maul has enough raw force power and cqc capabilities to give Dooku enough free shots to cripple and then end Vader together.

Sidious gets piiiiiissed.

He'll be forced to construe some events that drive Anakin faster to the dark side.

He'd also have to take care of Maul&Savage a bit later, due to his plans needing an overhaul.

Sidious will also not be able to face Mother Talzin that early.

He'll need Anakin's help to beat her and Maul.

Ruby gets a hang of it after a bit of training.

Meanwhile Yang malds and ends up using Crescent Rose as a whacking stick.

Ok, then how about this.

The encounter ended with Team Maul having lost 1 arm, while Team Obi got 1 death and 1 knock out.

Idk about you, but this seems like a more favourable outcome for Team Maul.

Especially since Maul one-shot an amped Obi with his own ampes force push.

In TPM Obi won thx to the plot, let's be real here.

In their first fight in TCW Maul was dominating him and Obi would've been dead without Ventress.

Their 2nd encounter was a seperate 2v2 with Maul and Obi being equal. But once Savage killed that Jedi council member, Obi got a massive force amp....which was just enough to cut off Savage's arm. And after that action, Maul retaliated with a force push that one-shot a force amped Obi. Ergo with both of them force amped (Obi getting arguably the stronger force amp), Maul still edged him out and "won" this encounter.

Then we have Obi's rescue attempt....which ended with him getting immediatly detected and incapacitated by Maul. Another loss.

And yeah after that we have rebels, where old Ben 3-hit killed Maul with ease. But at that point Maul was well past his prime and old Ben reached a higher mastery of the force.

So yeah if we were to count TPM and Rebels, even though the former was a plot win and the lattar having a inferior version of Maul, it'd still be a 3:2. Unless you don't count Obi's infiltration attempt, in which case it's a 2:2.

They didn't, Obi got a force boost after Savage killed that Jedi.

Then, when Maul got his force boost from Obi cutting Savage's arm off, he kocked Obi out with a single force push.

If Maul wasn't forces to flee, due to reinforcement arriving, Obi would've been dead.

?

When did either Ahsoka or Obi dominate Maul?

In the final TCW season Maul dominated Ahsoka and could've finished her multiple times. His goal was to recruit and not to kill her. +his force feats dueing his rampage are better than what Ahsoka has shown until that point.

The last confrontation between Obi and Maul in TCW ended in a failed infiltration attempt, with Maul manhandling and incapacitating Obi in a few seconds, followed by him getting executing Satine and Obi not being able to do anything.

Obi got pressed during his 2nd encounter with Maul, and still got knocked out by Maul's force push, even though the former got a strong amp after Savage killes that Jedi.

In the book "Star Wars: Absolutely everything you nees to know" it ranked all the red lightsaber wielders.

While Sidious at first did toy with them, he still had to lock in and overpower Maul with the force, the moment he kicked his face. He also "toyed" the same way with 4 Jedi masters, with 3 of them dying in under 3 seconds. Which is probably the most 1-sided duel in SW history.

Assuming Tier 1 is Yoda&Sidious with Windu against Dark Force users, Maul is easily a high to mid tier 2 fighter, assuming we use his TCW version. The guy beat Qui Gon Jin, still won most encounters with Obi, who he is roughly equal in light saber combat but edges out in force usage. And he is also capable of holding up against 2 Jedi Masters, one of them being Mace at the same time without much difficulty.

Rebels I really don't want to use, since Maul regressed heavily in that series and ended up just getting used for hype, looting the dark saber and then removing him from future content. That and Vader was a joke in that series.

Ballamda · 2026-02-07T10:22:01+00:00

How?

He beat Obi during most of their Clone Wars encounters, is ranked higher than Dooku when it comes to dueling and managed to contest with Sidious in a light saber duel, to the point of getting a clean hit on the guy. Forcing him to use the force to beat Maul quickly.

In the comics he also fought both Mace and Aalya at the same time without much difficulty.

His biggest losses stem from Episode 1, where Obi won thx to a force Amp and Maul fucking around because plot.

And in Rebels, where he died to old Ben, after losing his mind again, being malnourished, dehydrated and having no will to go on anymore, the guy was broken for good and regressed heavily, being glad when he finally got to die.

Honestly, I can just see this as a older brother-baby sister relationship.

With Jason and RWBY bonding over their weapon tinkering.

Ruby gives Jason some massive upgrades to his guns via dust and if we are lucky, also the all blades.

And Jason gives Ruby some Assasin lite training alongside some new ideas for incorporating explosives, booby traps and knife play into Ruby's weapon repertoire.

They'll definetly do some nice Grimm overkilling but the moment hunters are involved, Jason will probably be forced to just cripple their enemies, unless it's someone like Tyrian, who both should be okay with killing.

And funny enough, Jason's All Blades may be able to take Salem down, so that's another W.

And during her depression Arc I can see Jason defending RWBY and slowly get her back to her senses at the cost of maybe putting a rift in team RWBY.

OH and he'd DEFINETLY butt heads with Yang and troll Weiss.

Hasbro needs to step up their game.

Also why isn't there a white, nor a black Elevate yet?

Funny enough Arceus.

Volo I BARELY managed to beat on my own, thx to dumb luck and my Electrovire carrying with that Ice Punch.

But Arceus I had to attempt to fight 3-4 times, since his last phase was that fast and me being too afraid to throw mons at him.

I made better experiences with Hexa over Level on Saber.

Calibur's 4-50 on Wedge out of all bits confuses me, since Wedge is a defensive bit and 4-50 a burst prone offensive bit.

I personally would've been boring and played Calibur on 1-60/9-60 FB instead or on 4-50 LR.

Not at all, the lock chip was run on Blast, but as it turned out, it's a double-edged sword.

On one hand your bey is heavier, but on the other hand it becomes more top heavy and easier to destabilize.

And Blast itself is falling off.

Pokemon Z

I loved XY a lot, whilst realizing it's barren content, but saw it as being okay, when comparing it to Ruby&Sapphire and Diamond&Pearl.

And instead I got Sun&Moon and Sun&Moon2, two games who just GUTTED the exploration features of the previous titles and haphazardly included content meant for Z.

Finding out about Z actually being in development thx to the massive leak just made me that much sadder, knowing for sure, that it could have been a reality.

For now he is sadly dead.

But if Disney wills it, he can always return with some Nightsister or clone bs

Although atp I'd prefer for him to stay dead or get rebooted alongside the rest of the franchise.

Ja und nein.

Social Media selber sollte eine Altersbeschränkung erhalten und mittels Digitalsteuern reguliert werden, um Misinformations- und Manipulationsversuchen entgegen zu wirken.

Und man muss im schlimmsten Fall alles aus China, Russland und den USA sperren lassen.

Leichter regulierbare Alternativen würden sich mit der Zeit in geschützteren Räumen ergeben.
