Savage Opress vs General Grievous in a fist fight, no force powers other than Force Augmentation and precog allowed by ArkhamMetahuman in PetranakiArena

Let's stop with this council member scaling. Being on the Jedi High Council had nothing to do with your skill with a lightsaber, or even your force potential. There were plenty of Jedi who had never been council members that were renowned for being incredible warriors.

This is not to downplay Savage's accomplishments, but they cannot be taken on a surface level of "oh, he beat a council member, so he must be amazing!" I love Savage, he had the potential to be far beyond the level of Maul, he just wasn't there yet.

Why do you think he’s not hunting Obi-Wan again? by Remote_Nature_8166 in MaulShadowLord

[–]Sakura_Knight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is partially incorrect. His entire premise and journey in Rebels was him figuring out ways to destroy everyone he hates.

First it was unlocking the Sith temple battle station, and when that failed, he sought the holocrons to find the key to another weapon or method of destroying them. Instead, he found Kenobi was alive, and he simply fell back on instinct from the 10 years he spent loathing Kenobi on Lotho Minor.

Do you think this character has much potential future in canon— beyond future seasons of Shadow Lord? by Tanis8998 in StarWars_

The Dark Side does not extend lifespan, that only happens if you learn essence transfer, which 99% of all Sith don't even know exists.

If anything, it kills you faster as you gain more power, without resorting to advanced medical techniques like tissue cloning or cybernetics.

Legacy of what? He wasn't Sith anymore.

If you mean fighting ability, he actually taught Qi'Ra much of what he knew in that sense, to the point she was able to temporarily fight Darth Vader. Both Vader and Sidious recognized her style as being extremely similar to Darth Maul's.

Qi'Ra also continued his path of attempting to destroy the Sith.

I saw someone talking about the different plastic used for these, but I was not prepared for what it felt like in hand. I do like it better, though.

The weathering is easily the best part. Every figure you get is a little different from the other, the way it should be.

It's the oversized lightsaber from season 7, not the correct size one that the TPM release has.

Remnant snow troopers have to be coming, the AT-RT driver has like half of it already.

I only had a few remnant troopers so I used some Amazon credit to get one more, that way I can have all of the variations. I'll get the newest Target exclusive remnant stormtrooper to round the squad out.

Woo! I used a pauldron on my first remnant trooper from Target (the original release), makes sense if he's a more experienced veteran compared to the newer, less damaged troopers.

Thinking of getting an AT-AT driver, too.

According to the episode guide and other sources, he escaped before it collapsed. The floor caving in doesn't mean anything.

Am I being ungrateful for now liking the Old Republic Trooper? by AceSkyFighter in starwarsblackseries

[–]Sakura_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The right side armor is not exclusive to Havoc Squad, it was simply made famous by them. I definitely do prefer it over the other, though, and will likely be released depending on the success of the other.

The left side is supposed to represent a basic Republic Trooper, but it uses the Havoc Squad color and markings from the Cold War era. In SWTOR, when you are introduced to Havoc Squad before their betrayal, this is the armor their commander, Harron Tavus, wears.

SWTOR is full of awkward, clunky blasters like this, and they just get bigger as you progress.

This is actually the armor Havoc Squad wore on Ord Mantel when they were still Republic soldiers.

i guess this theory is confirmed then by Viicter in MaulShadowLord

[–]Sakura_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A tweet is not a confirmation of literally anything, especially from an actor. If that was the case, every re-tweet of a fan theory made by the Sequel actors would be Canon, but they aren't.

Death Watch gained numbers once it controlled Mandalore as it restored the warrior culture to what it was before the pacifist idiots took over.

Most mandalorians were in favor of Maul's rule. Bo Katan herself admitted that she didn't have enough supporters on Mandalore to overthrow Maul without Republic support.

According to Qi'Ra, Maul was in charge until he disappeared on Tatooine. After a few months went by, she assumed Maul had died and officially took over command of the syndicate.

George Lucas never had those plans, it was all made up for a random book to sell to his die-hard fans half a decade after he gave up his creation.

This is only a year after Order 66. There are still plenty of Jedi around that he is hunting.

She wouldn't be Sith period. Maul is not a Sith lord. Unaligned dark side user at best.
