tunewalker Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) Well if Corran Horn is indeed a master of all seven forms with his own unorthodox style then I must say I agree that he should be placed above Shaak Ti. The unorthodox thing may have only been him applying his skills in unarmed combat that he learned and was used by Luke to help create the Strong, Medium and Fast style combined with his use of Takata (I think that's how you spell it) where he occasionally turns the blade off to move past an opponents defense or throw them off balance as he did in his duel with a Yuuzong Vong Battle Master, trying to find the rest of it but will need more time and more sleep Edit: he seemed to use a lot of unorthodox methods in the Yuuzong Vong War and may be his best feats for trying to compare application. I will get to these tomorrow night class is calling me and I have work later today. Edited September 23, 2013 by tunewalker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfninjajedi Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) ...when did Shaak Ti fight Vader? During Operation Knightfall, the attack on the Jedi Temple. They had a brief duel, she couldn't win so she ran away. Hence my slight dislike of her, she ran away in the time the Temple's time of need, you didn't see Cin do that! /flails!

Beniboybling Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 I think you put the names in backwards there. Well Corran has mastered more forms than Shaak Ti, and has developed his own fighting style like Shaak Ti. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfninjajedi Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) Raggle, fraggle, BIKJAHI! <<....Hmph!...I want more of Cin damnit! We have... Cin Drallig's lightsaber instructor was none other than Master Yoda himself This By the time of the Clone Wars, Master Drallig was old but still one of the Jedi's top swordsmen, his skills described as being "nearly unparalleled." This It was the conviction of Count Dooku—himself a former lightsaber instructor who left the Order in 32 BBY—that the cyborg General Grievous' unpolished fighting style could not save him should he ever have to face off against Master Drallig. This and Despite being the Temple’s finest swordmaster at the time of Darth Vader's raid on the Jedi Temple, even Cin Drallig was no match for the Sith Lord This! I WANT more than just sourcebook quotes and statements of characters! Why don't we have MORE?! /hides in corner muttering incoherently.

tunewalker Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Actually with Wolf's information here we might want to try to think about what we can do with Cin Drallig vs Shaak Ti and possibly Cin vs Corran. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well to me those are enough to make a argument for him we already know Knowledge wise he would be Shaak Ti and possibly understanding since he was the primary instructor and according to those source books he could like have preformed better then her had he been given the chance.

Selenial Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Can someone please explain to me exactly what went down concerning Vader vs Drallig according to canon?

Wolfninjajedi Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Can someone please explain to me exactly what went down concerning Vader vs Drallig according to canon? They exchanged some blows and then Vader out maneuvered and slashed into his shoulder. As far as what I can gather, don't have the quote on hand of the ROTS novel.

Wolfninjajedi Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) At any rate, I was just ranting so carry on! But just one more quote.. Trained by Grand Master Yoda, Drallig was a legendary lightsaber instructor and battlemaster at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant and his skills were impressive, to say the least. Though he was not a member of the Jedi High Council, his swordsmanship likely rivaled or exceeded that of several Council members. Other Jedi sometimes referred to him as "The Troll" in reference to his relentless training procedures and ferocious attack style. ^ Not sure where this one comes from, could just be something that came outta thin air but I still like it. Ok my ranting is over...I just want more of Cin rather then source/character quotes! I mean we got stuff for Seasee Tin and Agen Kolar and all they did was die in EP 3 too! Hmph! /broods. Anyway move along, move along. Edited September 23, 2013 by Wolfninjajedi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denneysman Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Saba Is a good Swordsbeing?she was on par ,but lost to Kenth Hamner. Why noone wanted to face her was not so much her skill but her ferocity. Saba fought and defeated Abalogth on her own not with her lightsaber, but by shoving her arm down her throut and biting her head off. I don't care how skilled i am I wouldn't want to face a being that can do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beniboybling Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 Well, perhaps we should consider Cin Drallig. At least for contention of Shaak Ti's position. Drallig was said to be more skilled that some of the Jedi Council members. Is Shaak Ti included? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But of course....there is no demonstration of what he can do, all we got is quotes from books or chars. But again was just ranting, pay it all no mind!

Aurbere Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 (edited) Drallig doesn't have a lot of info on him to work with. All we have is quotes and one duel where (video game aside) he is depicted as getting beaten rather easily.
