Anakin: "Why cant i marry padme?? Ki adi even have multiple wife!" Obi wan: "master mundi's species is endangered, and had very low birthrate" Anakin:......*gets ready to kill other humans so they are near extinct*
The fact that the author of "Shatterpoint" had to basically putting Windu through various kind of injuries to have Depa defeat him speak volume about his capability as a fighter.
"Force wakes up". Lol Typo? From the looks of it, R2 should win solidly. However, we don't yet know what BB-8's capable of. It does look like he set off an explosion in one of the trailers. It just the way he looks at it.
Zachary Buck Chopper would stomp R2D2 he could ram him with his rocket engine shock him with his stun blaster(WHICH TOOK OUT A STORMTROOPER) and also pull out a blaster and shoot him so Chopper stomp's!
VERY well written, you present your sources excellently and has great points. Good to see Depa Billaba in the spotlight too. By the way, nice nicknames for both characters.
I like Legends Depa over Canon Depa. I thought her Legends story was one of the better ones. For anyone who enjoys Star Wars novels, I highly suggest you read Shatterpoint! I thought it was an excellent book!
@@dazdavis7896 Nope, not legends Ashoka not even Legends Maul. Even in Legends somehow Palpatine returned and possessed Luke to be become evil. Plus a slight mistake by Obi Wan during the Purge somehow lead to another purge half a century later where the Jedi were again fugitives by Darth Krayt.
Antoine, wonderful, as always. Depa B. has always been one of my favorites. In my opinion she made Mace (also one of my favorites) appear to be human, a relate able character. A really great job. Thank-you, Dante.
I completely agree with Depa making Mace a human being. He cared for her so, so much. Shatterpoint was a very emotional experience for me. It's like seeing your daughter, the one you appreciated the most ... just fall, and fall hard.
+Antoine Bandele this was very good match up because I wanted to know who ki adi Mundi and depa billaba. I mean I know who they were but I wanted to know their backgrounds.
Very well done man, I love the dissection of the characters and he lore and the focus on both he outcome of the fight and representing the characters. Subbed.
+Antoine Bandele No problem man, credit where credit is dew. I also just watched your Q+A/ Giveaway stream that you uploaded to RUclips, and I couldn't help, but notice that you were a member of Comicvine. Idk if your still active, but if so I would love to do a CaV with you (if your into one on one debating). My user name is Speedster101, shoot me a PM if you'd want to do that kind of thing!
Great, this is the best character background review i've seen. The overall video was great too. Really nothing to complain about. It was visually very nice, it was interesting and not too long (as some do it) making it so easy to watch. I guess i can say it's my new favorite one. And good job bringing new light to this somewhat shadowy character (meaning Depa). What about KI-Adi - initially i had not much interest in him but lately i've gotten more curious about him and this video made me grow more interest in him. A good job indeed.
13:19, Ben Kenobi, too. "I felt a great disturbance in the force... As if millions of voices cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened."
Correct, but that's when he was much older. As a younger man he was more combat oriented, more about the now, rather than the cerebral. But this make sense. All Old Ben Kenobi could do was meditate, so these sorts of abilities would come about, just like his ability to make a perfect Krayt dragon call. Also, same seems to be the case for Ahsoka Tano in Rebels. The producers said that she has grown more spiritual over her fifteen years since the Clone Wars. A lot of time on your own, without continuous battle, seems to do that.
*Before watching video* AHHHHH, this is going to be so sweet! These are two of my favorite Prequel Era Jedi, up there with Obi-Wan, Agen Kolar, Kit Fisto, and several other notable figures. *After watching video* I like how you named a lot of the sources the pictures came from. That's really cool and is a nice touch to the presentation side of the video. One of your finest VS videos to date in terms of presentation, editing, script, and voice over. A truly "career-defining" video much like Mace Windu vs Anakin Skywalker but with lesser known combatants. All points were very well-reasoned and I'm still on the fence about the verdict but it was a phenomenal video nonetheless. Well done Antoine.
Depa Billaba is actually one of my favorite Jedi, along with Shaak Ti, Kit Fisto, Luminara Unduli, and Jocasta Nu. It would be interesting to see a short Versus video of someone like Jocasta Nu versus Tera Sinube.
Antoine Bandele Well perhaps, but Jocasta Nu is one of the few examples of what a non-combative Jedi might look like. Almost every other Jedi we see is fighting in a battle or discussing mission tactics. Thats great and all for a movie or TV show that needs to draw and keep your attention but I'm an active RPer and I love RPing in the Star Wars universe, Jedi like Jocasta Nu, Tera Sinube, Rachi Sitra, and Cilghal are vital to painting an accurate picture when attempting to play as a non-combative Jedi. Master Nu was a teacher, Master Sinube a criminal investigator, Sitra an archaeologist, and Cilghal a healer. Each were prominent members of the Jedi Order, two of whom sat on their respective Jedi High Councils. For the most part my favorite Jedi are based on their backstories and personality, not their combative or tactical skills and abilities. Sorry for the mini-rant, I'm enthusiastic :P PS. I love listening to your versus videos while I'm writing or working on something, they always seem to give me ideas or help me work around my RP characters' flaws, you've literally save their lives more then once.
Hey Antoine, I have some ideas for future Star Wars versus fights you could maybe do. How about these: Darth Maul vs. Quinlan Vos Ahsoka Tano vs. Maris Brood General Grievous vs. General Pong Krell Boba Fett vs. Captain Rex Yoda vs. Revan Darth Plagueis vs. Darth Sidious
+The Batman Of Neo-Gotham Darth Maul vs. Quinlan Vos: It depends on which voss if its EU Voss he will lose pretty bad but dark side canon voss would stomp Maul Ahsoka Tano vs. Maris Brood: i dont think Brood has any feats aside from her fight with starkiller where she got wrecked. Ahsoka has far more feats so id say she takes it. as its hard to gauge how powerful brood is form that one fight. General Grievous vs. General Pong Krell: grievous was able to hold his own against obi wan ,kit fisto and eath koth ,krell was just some jedi master greivous wins pretty hard. Boba Fett vs. Captain Rex: Boba has far better weapons and armour even if their skill is similar Boba should stomp because of that. Yoda vs. Revan: Yoda is leagues above revan Yoda stomps Darth Plagueis vs. Darth Sidious sidious at his peak is think was stated ot be more powerful than plageuis but at the time when sidious killed him plageuis was superior
Antoine Bandele was that going to be Billaba vs Bulq vs Vos, the battle of the Vapaad students? I think that’d be a great fight. Are you still going to make more Star Wars versus videos btw, or have you gone off them completely?
While I would agree with your statements about Ahsoka and Barris being equal and Anakin above Luminara, the big difference would be the team work. Barris and Luminara worked as a cohesive unit which is something I don't think Anakin and Ahsoka ever achieved. Other than Asajj Ventress early on Anakin and Ahsoka never fought a lightsaber duel together. I feel like the two where too independent fighters to work together as cohesively as Unduli and Offee, so I do think it would be an interesting fight with no clear winner
As always very well done, I learned some things about Mundi I didnt know. Your next vs video is going to be interesting to watch, but I think Shane wins.
Hey, Antoine Bandele. This was an awesome on. I never realized how amazing Depa Billaba was. Just amazing. I must say your next match-up between Ryan Wieber and Shane Farley will be interesting, even though they're not a part of the Star Wars universe. In fact, I was thinking of another match-up I came up with not so long ago. The match up is Tyber Zann vs Han Solo. A battle between the crime lord and the smuggler. This another one I think you should really do besides Kyle Katarn vs Obi-wan kenobi, and Lucius Malfoy vs The Grand Inquisitor. BTW Your bloopers at the end were so hilarious. LOL!
Jar-Jar Binks (The ultimate sith lord, master of the evil power of clumsiness) VS. Naga Sadow Seriously, we should start recognizing clumsiness as a form of dark, sith art. Jar-Jar gets more shit done than luke in the entirety of the original trilogy by stumbling over a branch.
Nicely done, like the use of these characters, haven't seen either in a vs's video before ,nice job on the switch keeping the series fresh, the blooper reel was very funny...lol: )
Arryn Leneer vs Depa Bilaba. Das Jenner vs Kanan Jarrus. Darth Malgus vs Jaina Solo. Antares Draco vs Lord Vindican . Sedriss vs Lucien Draay. Ki adi mundi vs Galen Marek. Kit Fisto vs Sora Bulq. Agen Kolar vs Antares Draco. Quinlan Vos vs Ven Zallow. Jaden Korr vs Quigon Jinn.
A great matchup Antoine, an excellent analysis of both characters. Ki-Adi may be my favourite but I don't disagree with the outcome. I found it ironic that the Jedi Guardian won the Force abilities round while the Consular won the duelling round haha, never saw that one coming. And that blooper reel was hilarious 😂
It sort of make sense for Guardian. In terms of combative Force powers, Guardians usually do have an upperhand. Consulars are often related to more esoteric Force abilities. But yes it is interesting, especially Depa's technique with her blade.
Yessssssssssssss! lol for some reason recently I was thinking about a Ki-Adi-Mundi Versus vid. I even left a comment on Evan's last video about using him. this made my night! thanks.
Yeah lol I was surprised that no one had used them until now. Especially Ki-adi to me. He's always intrigued me cause if u just take his film appearances at face value he looks like he's #3 on the council.
BTW I love the style of ur videos, especially the end when u do the hypothetical battle. I like how all the guys have a different spin on the same format. Looking forward to the next one!
Ki-Adi Mundi, the Jedi that was wrong about everything. I mean they could basically put him on the council and do the EXACT OPPOSITE of what he was saying and we wouldn't have an empire basically.
Yeah it's nice doing analysis of the non-high-profile characters. Also, I think it's a step up to include the sources I refer to throughout the video. That way folks can create their own opinion rather than saying ... well Antoine said this, or that. Rather, I would prefer if someone looked as one of the citations and said. Hmmm, I should read that comic/novel myself and see if I agree.
interesting concept but if you've read up on darth krayt you'd know he wipe the floor with ki adi mundi. darth krayt is among the few people in star wars that could and would defeat darth sidious.
+Lawrence Jones Agreed, maybe Darth Krayt before he creates the new Sith Order after he exits Korriban's tombs would be a closer fight. Hmmmm who among the Jedi would be a good fight against Darth Krayt, I think Mace would be a really good fight against Darth Krayt, and maybe Kyle Katarn? (Trying to stay away from people like Grand Master Luke Skywalker, or Yoda...)
Lawrence Jones Ya cause Darth Krayt is a beast. Nothing more nothing less. Maybe Exar Kun, or Ulic Quel Droma before he lost his connection to the force?
Boy... You've really got this down. Love the source headers you've put in. Glad you take Depa's abilities very seriously. Imagine how she'll use them when going up against Grievous in _First Blood_ issues 3 and 4. The General would see this as preparation for his upcoming fight with Mace Windu. Sense + Abilities = _Sensibilities_ LOL "Say that fast 3 times." ROFL Nice bloopers.
Antoine Bandele Imagine how Depa would fare against the likes of the ever-improving Asajj Ventress, or the calculating Darth Maul, or the Chosen One. Those would make good future match-ups. What do you say to that? Also, Depa wasn't Mace's _only_ Padawan. Better look up Devan For'deschel, Echuu Shen-Jon, and Darrus Jeht.
I really like the source citations. I'm not sure how long you have been doing that, but it makes the video look much more professional, and puts actually facts behind what if often viewed as assumptions in other videos.
Just started! I've been using direct sources since I start my new "seasons" but this is my first time adding them into the video itself. It feels more honest this way. It also separates what is opinion and what is fact from a source.
A few fight ideas Mace Windu vs Luke Skywalker Starkiller (Aka Galen Marek) vs Obi Wan Kenobi Ahsoka Tan vs Galan Marek Count Dooku vs General Grievous (Or Instead of Count Dooku Darth vader) The Inquisitor vs Darth Maul
+MaskedScorp 1. Seems good, but the victor might be too obvious.2. Sounds interesting.3. I already asked him that and he thinks that Ahsoka would seriously be outmatched.4. Kind of hard to make out on this one.5. Again, too obvious.
+Balta Skywalker Really? I don't think so. Antoine only uses ROTJ Luke and while I think he downplays Luke as a fighter I don't think Luke has a realistic chance against Mace as hard fought a fight it would be, Luke's inexperience really matters against Mace because as soon as Luke pegs Mace, Mace changes and adapts leaving Luke guessing again, Mace is also really good at marathon fights so that critical advantage Luke needs to win wouldn't be enough. Sure if Luke survived the fight and could ponder for a while and have a rematch he would stomp Mace but that is not how these matches work.
Redpoppy Ok, he wouldn't stomp Mace, but for me, his refined and calmed style, along with his Force Rage (Which is excessively powerful) would beat Mace.
+Balta Skywalker Problem number 2. Antoine doesn't take the Force Rage into account in Luke's fights because it is not something ROTJ Luke can call on at will based on Legends canon and the ROTJ novel in which Luke only uses Force Rage because of specific plot elements, not something a random stranger would trigger. I agree wholeheartedly that with Force Rage Luke would beat Mace but that is a non factor. I LOVE his refined and serene style, I think Luke takes Obi-Wan's swordsmanship to levels Obi-wan never could, even ROTJ Luke. But Mace has DECADES of experience under his belt, mastery of a form HE INVENTED and 6 other fighting styles if things go sour on Mace. Vaapad is alien territory for Luke so his lack of experience means holes in Luke's defense that Mace would exploit and win. I am on your side, I think ROTJ Luke is very unappreciated even without Force Rage but I don't see how Luke beats Mace consistently.
Most of your vids are about the boys, how about showing us girls some love. Maybe Satele Shan vs Mara Jade (Jedi or Sith), Ahsoka vs Jaina Solo, Satele Shan vs Zannah, Ahsoka vs Zannah, Zannah vs Mara Jade, Nomi Sunrider vs Satele Shan! ohhh Satele Shan vs Kreia!!! As far as I’ve seen you haven’t done any with Mara Jade, very few with Satele, and most of the Ahsoka ones are against males. Let’s see how the ladies do!!
+Chris Allen Problem with that here is what would happen if Revan lost. (radio transmission) Antoine, you need to retreat, the fanboys are overwhelming us! We are barely holding them o-*BOOM* Damn...fanboys....*dies*
+Thomas Parkin While Sidious > Vader is a Star Wars fact, I'd like to see a fight between them where Sidious can't use lightning and where there fighting each other at the same speed.
Thomas Parkin In ROTS, he bent the plasma of a lightsaber back. IN Dark EMpie, he vaporized the hilt of the lightsaber which bassically mean no more lightsaber for you in this fight.
Thomas Parkin Sidious's power could easily overwhelm Vader. It's like how Ezra Bridger or TCW Ahsoka wouldn't be able to defend against Revan's lighting.
You know, I think a battle between Yaddle and some one like, say, Ventress or Maul would be an awesome fight. Also, I love how you make it seem like your going to give one person the edge, and then just swing it around and logic your way into giving it to the other fighter. It's freaking cool.

Great video! A good way to debut Ki Adi Mundi and Depa Billaba. Since I have no knowledge of Depa's skill aside from comics, I will just have to take your word for it.
Ayy my girl Depa did it :D. Nice to see her in a VS video by you Antoine. Loved how you mention her condition during her fight with Mace. Everybody loves saying Mace was in crappy condition, but they cover their ears when they hear Depa's condition. Anyway nice video. Any hints for the next video?
It's very true. She too went through much of the same hardship Mace did ... but for months. Granted, she did not have a lightsaber wound through the gut or half of her neck eaten out. Yeah next vid is always hinted at the end.
Terrific Video right here. Only fear is that you will run out of Star wars characters to make a battle with, and thus, the versus series of star wars comming to an end :c
Great news then. Because with you, i have remembered all i knew about star wars and learned so much more. I never knew that Ki-adi-mundi was such a badass jedi. And by the way, that pun though xD
Not going to lie, when you mentioned the First Order in the intro, it kind of scared me. Scare me, in that with the inclusion of new cannon things it made me worried that soon you'd stop including Legends cannon stuff in your videos altogether. Hopefully that's not the case in the future. Amazing vid by the way. Keep up the good work.
That is not the case at ALL. In fact, when and if I use Kanan, I expect his first match up would be against Xanatos. Right now, I think they are on par. But if Kanan has some better showings going forward, not so much. But it's too soon to use someone like Kanan.
I'd like to see Depa Billaba vs Obi-Wan Kenobi. She was a primarily offensive fighter, who had defensive skills, whereas Obi-Wan was the greatest Soresu Master of all time. Plus, neither of them used the Force in the middle of combat as much as other Jedi or Sith, instead letting it use them. I think it would be really cool to see.
I'm not sure. Possibly, but aside from Mace, Depa Billaba was the only person to master Vaapad, and her combination of both it and Soresu could potentially allow her to contend with Obi-Wan.
@@FallenOne669 Legends Depa vs Obi Wan would have been a great duel. However, it's never acknowledged that Depa trained in Vaapad. I believe she was still trained by Windu. It's said tho that she used Form III. That's how the Grand Inquisitor knew Kanan's form and who his Master was. I'm don't believe the was trained in Vaapad. That's why I like Legends Depa way more than Canon Depa. I am not sure on this tho. The video is really confusing. He gives both Legends and Canon versions Depa. This is his only video I've had a problem with. It's really confusing honestly. If it's straight Canon,I believe Mundi takes this fight most of the time. If it's Legends, then I say Depa wins most of the time.
Man i love your videos, I get to learn so much in just one video. I just wish I could give a suggestion. The only one pops to my mind is that kid that survived the Padawan purge vs Xanatos. :(
Nice video. It felt very much in the same vein as Jensaari's Luminara vs. Vindican and GreyJedi's Farfala vs. Nihl. I really like the exposure for lesser known characters. Feris Olin one day?? Looking forward to the next one though I have no faith in Ryan. He has lost every duel he's been in :P Keep up the good work dude!
Suggestion for the vs series I always wanted to know your thoughts on lord scourge, I don't know who I would want him to see againts. Just for the fact he is not in the elite of jedi/sith in my book by going off of the novel revan he was obviously under revans level and revan powered was only surpassed by the absolute best of force users vitiate, palpitine, yoda, luke ect. Your thoughts?
Imagine that, instead of boring old Agen Kolar, Mace Windu, Ki'adi Mundi, with his awesome old PURPLE lightsaber, alongside Kit Fisto, and Saesae Tiin, Two purple lightsaber wielding awesome Jedi masters against Sidious, bet he would have lasted longer then Agen Kolar and Saesae Tiin. And maybe Kit Fisto.
Damn.... this is the most organized versus episode I've seen. (THANK YOU FOR SOURCES!!!) Anyway I know you have this already set up but what do you think would happen in a Sidious vs Abeloth match. Also using Ryan f*cking killed me!
Abeloth should beat Sidious. Yeah, I'm going to continue to cite sources going forward. I always did for my personal use but never publicly, which I think is most appropriate.
Thank you. I present opinions. I don't really _give_ anything. Only an author or creator can do that. It's interesting Ki-Adi isn't held up in more conversations. He always seemed like #3 on the council to me.
Good job. I agree with the points and verdict. I too can't believe these two characters haven't been in more videos, they're very interesting characters. Didn't Kenobi train Bilaba in form 3?
Please do your own Vader vs Yoda/ Mace Windu vs Yoda Video ok? Because I'm not at all satisfied with the existing ones. One of these would be SO great. I love your videos, you're doing a great job.
Thank you. I've thought about making a counter to Yoda vs Vader. Mace vs Yoda is already established in the lore: "With a stooped, small appearance, Yoda may not look like a warrior, but his skills with a lightsaber were unequaled." A Guide to Weapons of the Force "We've not seen Mace fight yet, and we know that he's second only to Yoda." Nick Gillard "Mace Windu's fighting abilities are second only to Yoda." George Lucas "I'm like the second baddest guy in the universe." Samuel L. Jackson "I am not [Yoda's] equal in peace or war." Mace Windu in Dark Redezvous "Though it was true that he had slowed slightly in the years that Mace Windu had known him, Yoda's skill with a lightsaber was still second to none on the council." Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter "Master Windu was also known within the Order for his unusual fighting style, one that he developed after studying the dueling styles of various lightsaber masters. His attacks consisted of relentless, unpredictable blows, like shots from an autoblaster. Master Windu himself remained perfectly balanced and centered. In the history of the Jedi Order, only two opponents ever overcame him in battle. One was Master Yoda, who some said was the Order's true master of lightsaber combat. The other was former Master Dooku, whose own fighting style was archaic, yet stunningly effective." Power of the Jedi Sourcebook
The thing is that jedi like Ki-Adi Mundi got killed of little to easy.. even if he was captured of guard we have seen jedi handle such before, so many jedi died like flies during order 66, probably because they needed to because of plot. Plo Koon got ship got shot down witch makes a bit more sense.
Honestly I was going to ask for someone else then I realized the match up I thought of was already done. I thought of Hoth in a "off the top of my head" moment
Interesting match-up, Antoine! I really enjoyed the breakdowns of the characters, and definitely agree with the conclusion. Though, to be totally honest, I don't feel your script was quite on point. No offense, of course, it's just there were several moments throughout the video where you said the same word or set of words several times over the course of two or three sentences. Got a bit repetitive, you know? Just something to watch out for in the future. Also, on a side note, I really enjoyed the blooper real! Absolutely entertaining!
hi there, im a really big fan of your star wars versus series and really love the few cross over episodes you've done as well, anyway, ive been playing swtor a lot lately, you know the online one, its got me thinking, would it be possible to do some versus battles with characters from that game? it might be hard to do but it would be cool to see the players accomplishments as a sith warrior in the game stacked up against some other characters in star wars, it might be easy just to look up the full story line of what ever character you might do, if you do.
Not sure if I agree with this. There are quotes suggesting Mundi is up there with Yoda and Mace as one of the very best jedi in the council. I think there is quote that suggests he is the third best as of AOTC. And I would put Mundi holding his own against Grievous while exhausted and at a form disadvantage firmly above anything Depa has done.
Can't help but notice that Ryan Wieber Vs Shane Farley didn't happen, at least as far as I'm aware. Is it still going ahead at some point, or has it been indefinitely shelved? I'm guessing the latter.
Alright @Antoine Bandele i got a match up for ya that should really give you a buzz. Renegade squadron vs Clone commandos. Make it happen man i wanna see what you got.
Great video and I agree with the verdict. However, I find it odd that you made a brand new video when it's been months since Jensaarai1 teased Scourge vs Kota.
At least a mention of Mundi and Billaba. I'm surprised that they haven't been used by the most popular versus series creators so far. While I like Mundi much more than Billaba I have to agree with the verdict. However I think you have overlooked that Vaapad doesn't reach its full potential against Jedi due to the lack of emotion which could feed Vaapad. On the other hand she could at least use her own inner darkness to empower Vaapad. Hopefully we will see them again in another matchup. They deserve much more attention.
There is a misconception that the power of Vaapad only derives from an exterior source. Also, the pure technique of Vaapad is overlooked. I have plans for another Depa match up, Ki-Adi as well!
Anakin: "Why cant i marry padme?? Ki adi even have multiple wife!"

ribgribber lol palpatine: “now’s my chance”
He'd be doing it for the rest of his natural life lol. Humans made up the single largest percentage of the galactic population.
Cereans are basically exaggerated humans, inflating humanity’s distinct advantages and disadvantages as a species to extremes.
The fact that the author of "Shatterpoint" had to basically putting Windu through various kind of injuries to have Depa defeat him speak volume about his capability as a fighter.
And Depa was also described as dangerously thin, so she was NEAR HIS LEVEL.
You need to do an R2-D2 vs BB-8 after the Force wakes up
"Force wakes up". Lol Typo? From the looks of it, R2 should win solidly. However, we don't yet know what BB-8's capable of. It does look like he set off an explosion in one of the trailers. It just the way he looks at it.

VERY well written, you present your sources excellently and has great points. Good to see Depa Billaba in the spotlight too. By the way, nice nicknames for both characters.
Thanks Filip!
One of your more underrated VS Match. Although, the result should be a bit obvious.
You should do a Jedi council master tournament fight. To rank them in skill.
Hah that could be kind of neat. It would be a different show. The match ups would be shorter.

Thanks.
Antoine, wonderful, as always. Depa B. has always been one of my favorites. In my opinion she made Mace (also one of my favorites) appear to be human, a relate able character. A really great job. Thank-you, Dante.
I completely agree with Depa making Mace a human being. He cared for her so, so much. Shatterpoint was a very emotional experience for me. It's like seeing your daughter, the one you appreciated the most ... just fall, and fall hard.

Thanks giorgi.
Fun fact: Depa became a master at age 23, placing her about 9 years younger than her master. Mace dispatched a gang of pirates as a PADAWAN.
13:19, Ben Kenobi, too. "I felt a great disturbance in the force... As if millions of voices cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened."
Correct, but that's when he was much older. As a younger man he was more combat oriented, more about the now, rather than the cerebral. But this make sense. All Old Ben Kenobi could do was meditate, so these sorts of abilities would come about, just like his ability to make a perfect Krayt dragon call.
Also, same seems to be the case for Ahsoka Tano in Rebels. The producers said that she has grown more spiritual over her fifteen years since the Clone Wars. A lot of time on your own, without continuous battle, seems to do that.
+Antoine Bandele Well you said in the video Yoda was the only other Jedi to do this... And here we both are now, adding two more to that list ;)
thanks for doing a Ki Adi video I have been surprised how he hasn't been done with the other Verse vid producers.
I'm surprised too. They're supposed to be more of the obscure characters channel.
*Before watching video* AHHHHH, this is going to be so sweet! These are two of my favorite Prequel Era Jedi, up there with Obi-Wan, Agen Kolar, Kit Fisto, and several other notable figures.
*After watching video* I like how you named a lot of the sources the pictures came from. That's really cool and is a nice touch to the presentation side of the video. One of your finest VS videos to date in terms of presentation, editing, script, and voice over. A truly "career-defining" video much like Mace Windu vs Anakin Skywalker but with lesser known combatants. All points were very well-reasoned and I'm still on the fence about the verdict but it was a phenomenal video nonetheless. Well done Antoine.
Oh hey look your older comment did post after all!
Hey look at that... much better than my other comment
Depa Billaba is actually one of my favorite Jedi, along with Shaak Ti, Kit Fisto, Luminara Unduli, and Jocasta Nu. It would be interesting to see a short Versus video of someone like Jocasta Nu versus Tera Sinube.
Jocasta Nu is an interesting favorite.
Antoine Bandele Well perhaps, but Jocasta Nu is one of the few examples of what a non-combative Jedi might look like. Almost every other Jedi we see is fighting in a battle or discussing mission tactics. Thats great and all for a movie or TV show that needs to draw and keep your attention but I'm an active RPer and I love RPing in the Star Wars universe, Jedi like Jocasta Nu, Tera Sinube, Rachi Sitra, and Cilghal are vital to painting an accurate picture when attempting to play as a non-combative Jedi. Master Nu was a teacher, Master Sinube a criminal investigator, Sitra an archaeologist, and Cilghal a healer. Each were prominent members of the Jedi Order, two of whom sat on their respective Jedi High Councils. For the most part my favorite Jedi are based on their backstories and personality, not their combative or tactical skills and abilities. Sorry for the mini-rant, I'm enthusiastic :P
PS. I love listening to your versus videos while I'm writing or working on something, they always seem to give me ideas or help me work around my RP characters' flaws, you've literally save their lives more then once.
Hey Antoine, I have some ideas for future Star Wars versus fights you could maybe do. How about these:
Darth Maul vs. Quinlan Vos
Ahsoka Tano vs. Maris Brood
General Grievous vs. General Pong Krell
Boba Fett vs. Captain Rex
Yoda vs. Revan
Darth Plagueis vs. Darth Sidious
+The Batman Of Neo-Gotham Darth Maul vs. Quinlan Vos: It depends on which voss if its EU Voss he will lose pretty bad but dark side canon voss would stomp Maul
Ahsoka Tano vs. Maris Brood: i dont think Brood has any feats aside from her fight with starkiller where she got wrecked. Ahsoka has far more feats so id say she takes it. as its hard to gauge how powerful brood is form that one fight.
General Grievous vs. General Pong Krell: grievous was able to hold his own against obi wan ,kit fisto and eath koth ,krell was just some jedi master greivous wins pretty hard.
Boba Fett vs. Captain Rex: Boba has far better weapons and armour even if their skill is similar Boba should stomp because of that.
Yoda vs. Revan: Yoda is leagues above revan Yoda stomps
Darth Plagueis vs. Darth Sidious sidious at his peak is think was stated ot be more powerful than plageuis but at the time when sidious killed him plageuis was superior
+banethesithari LOL Quinlan Vos isn't a female, dude. You made a typing error.
The Batman Of Neo-Gotham yeah fixed it my bad.
+banethesithari Actually, In Darth Plagueis, It was stated that Sidious used Plagueis only as a teacher, and was always more powerful.
Goldenrod City Broadcasting That's just sidious arrogance ,are you actually going to try and say sidious was plageuis superior from the day they met ?
This was a great matchup and you did great with it! For your next one I would recommend Oppo Rancisis VS Count Dooku or Luminara Unduli Vs Quinlan Vos
Thank you.
I can't believe it's been a year, this my favorite video Btw. Will you use Depa again?
Yes! I want to use her in an upcoming three-way.
That will be cool. But you may need to reword your sentence. :p
Antoine Bandele was that going to be Billaba vs Bulq vs Vos, the battle of the Vapaad students? I think that’d be a great fight. Are you still going to make more Star Wars versus videos btw, or have you gone off them completely?
Bout time these two had a chance to shine. Great job Antoine.
Here's to hoping that Scourge vs. Kota is next.
Thanks!
Scourge and Kota is coming.
please do luminara unduli and barriss offee vs Anakin skywalker and ahsoka tano.
Vincent Escolano Barris is about equal with Ashoka, but anakin is in adifferent league to luminara. Anakin and Ashoka win easily
While I would agree with your statements about Ahsoka and Barris being equal and Anakin above Luminara, the big difference would be the team work. Barris and Luminara worked as a cohesive unit which is something I don't think Anakin and Ahsoka ever achieved. Other than Asajj Ventress early on Anakin and Ahsoka never fought a lightsaber duel together. I feel like the two where too independent fighters to work together as cohesively as Unduli and Offee, so I do think it would be an interesting fight with no clear winner
Anakin by himself could take them
Vincent Escolano he doesn’t need to we know who would win
Legends Anakin would beat all three.
This was a really great video. I particularly liked the introduction as it really set up the characters.
Thank you. Yes, GreyJedi91's intro have always been something I've looked up to. I feel this was much in the vein of one of his videos.
As always very well done, I learned some things about Mundi I didnt know. Your next vs video is going to be interesting to watch, but I think Shane wins.
Thanks Ancient.
Good video and I agree with the verdict. Keep your videos at this length, it makes your analysis concise. Keep up the good work!
Thank you. I agree. 30 minutes is the sweet spot of enough detail without overstaying its welcome.
Hey, Antoine Bandele.
This was an awesome on. I never realized how amazing Depa Billaba was. Just amazing.
I must say your next match-up between Ryan Wieber and Shane Farley will be interesting, even though they're not a part of the Star Wars universe.
In fact, I was thinking of another match-up I came up with not so long ago. The match up is Tyber Zann vs Han Solo. A battle between the crime lord and the smuggler.
This another one I think you should really do besides Kyle Katarn vs Obi-wan kenobi, and Lucius Malfoy vs The Grand Inquisitor.
BTW Your bloopers at the end were so hilarious. LOL!
Thank you dude.
The staunch and the noble. The enlightened and the mental. Ki-Adi vs Depa. Who wins?
Nikkile Bacol Tiin wins
Jar-Jar Binks (The ultimate sith lord, master of the evil power of clumsiness)
VS.
Naga Sadow
Seriously, we should start recognizing clumsiness as a form of dark, sith art. Jar-Jar gets more shit done than luke in the entirety of the original trilogy by stumbling over a branch.
Nicely done, like the use of these characters, haven't seen either in a vs's video before ,nice job on the switch keeping the series fresh, the blooper reel was very funny...lol: )
Thanks Mark.
Arryn Leneer vs Depa Bilaba. Das Jenner vs Kanan Jarrus. Darth Malgus vs Jaina Solo. Antares Draco vs Lord Vindican . Sedriss vs Lucien Draay. Ki adi mundi vs Galen Marek. Kit Fisto vs Sora Bulq. Agen Kolar vs Antares Draco. Quinlan Vos vs Ven Zallow. Jaden Korr vs Quigon Jinn.
good video! good to see ki adi Mundi used, one of the more interesting and underated jedi.
Especially when that dude can talk on par with Mace and Yoda!
Oh yeah that's when you know he's an OG, and If you want search Yarell poof on adult swim, it's really funny
A great matchup Antoine, an excellent analysis of both characters. Ki-Adi may be my favourite but I don't disagree with the outcome. I found it ironic that the Jedi Guardian won the Force abilities round while the Consular won the duelling round haha, never saw that one coming. And that blooper reel was hilarious 😂
It sort of make sense for Guardian. In terms of combative Force powers, Guardians usually do have an upperhand. Consulars are often related to more esoteric Force abilities. But yes it is interesting, especially Depa's technique with her blade.
It's really awesome how the intro now has kylo ren on it.
Prepping for what's to come (though probably not in the near future).
20:31 "Thumbs up, let's do this! LEEEEEEEROO..."
Yessssssssssssss! lol for some reason recently I was thinking about a Ki-Adi-Mundi Versus vid. I even left a comment on Evan's last video about using him. this made my night! thanks.
About time these two were featured. It's not like they are sparse characters.
Yeah lol I was surprised that no one had used them until now. Especially Ki-adi to me. He's always intrigued me cause if u just take his film appearances at face value he looks like he's #3 on the council.
Agreed. It's always been my impression that at least politically speaking he was #3 on the council.
BTW I love the style of ur videos, especially the end when u do the hypothetical battle. I like how all the guys have a different spin on the same format. Looking forward to the next one!
Ki-Adi Mundi, the Jedi that was wrong about everything. I mean they could basically put him on the council and do the EXACT OPPOSITE of what he was saying and we wouldn't have an empire basically.
But what about the droid attack on the Wookiees ? :(
This is my favorite versus from you Antoine!
This is one of my favorites as well!
I dont know if it's the new format or it simply because of the new characters but I like having new synopsis for the characters.
Yeah it's nice doing analysis of the non-high-profile characters. Also, I think it's a step up to include the sources I refer to throughout the video. That way folks can create their own opinion rather than saying ... well Antoine said this, or that. Rather, I would prefer if someone looked as one of the citations and said. Hmmm, I should read that comic/novel myself and see if I agree.
I can't get over how good your videos are! They Look Amazing! and the script/audio is excellent! great video!
Thanks Muse.
This video is interesting because I get to learn about Jedi master Depa Billiaba.
:-D
same
This is my favorite versus vid that you ever made in my opinion
I like this one a lot too . . . which it got a bit more play. Only thing is I don't like some of my cadences.
It would be interesting to set up a fight between Ki Adi Mundi and Darth Krayt. Master angainst fallen Student!
interesting concept but if you've read up on darth krayt you'd know he wipe the floor with ki adi mundi. darth krayt is among the few people in star wars that could and would defeat darth sidious.
+Lawrence Jones Agreed, maybe Darth Krayt before he creates the new Sith Order after he exits Korriban's tombs would be a closer fight. Hmmmm who among the Jedi would be a good fight against Darth Krayt, I think Mace would be a really good fight against Darth Krayt, and maybe Kyle Katarn? (Trying to stay away from people like Grand Master Luke Skywalker, or Yoda...)
Mace would be a good choice. Other than that I'm not all that sure
Lawrence Jones Ya cause Darth Krayt is a beast. Nothing more nothing less. Maybe Exar Kun, or Ulic Quel Droma before he lost his connection to the force?
+Josh Campbell I've been wanting Kun v. Krayt for *ages*.
Boy... You've really got this down. Love the source headers you've put in.
Glad you take Depa's abilities very seriously. Imagine how she'll use them when going up against Grievous in _First Blood_ issues 3 and 4. The General would see this as preparation for his upcoming fight with Mace Windu.
Sense + Abilities = _Sensibilities_ LOL
"Say that fast 3 times." ROFL
Nice bloopers.
Thanks Will.
Antoine Bandele
Imagine how Depa would fare against the likes of the ever-improving Asajj Ventress, or the calculating Darth Maul, or the Chosen One. Those would make good future match-ups. What do you say to that?
Also, Depa wasn't Mace's _only_ Padawan. Better look up Devan For'deschel, Echuu Shen-Jon, and Darrus Jeht.
this is all well and good, but the real question is, which Star Wars character would win in a rap battle
Yoda. His rhymes would be so unique.
+Antoine Bandele Look up Star Wars Rhapsody.
+Antoine Bandele What fight was this it looks cool. 28:01
+Scienist #1 Knights of the fallen empire trailer
umm Darth Vader... or does no one watch epic rap battles anymore
thanks for the video it is nice to see someone bring those characters to light.
Mmhm. They have interesting backstories.
Yes i agree
You said you might do Anakin vs Maul. Is that still happening? I would LOVE to see that one.
Luke vs Maul is happening.
+Antoine Bandele which version of Luke would you be using?
+Tom Grocutt It's probably going to be Return of the Jedi Luke otherwise it would be over in less then a second.
Anakin > Maul. It'd be interesting if it was AOTC Anakin Vs TPM Maul. I'd like to see Pre-Suit Vader Vs Maul.
TheNuisanceBird
Execpt Savage Opress gave Anakin trouble and if Maul was able to easily beat him in sparring sessions..
I really like the source citations. I'm not sure how long you have been doing that, but it makes the video look much more professional, and puts actually facts behind what if often viewed as assumptions in other videos.
+NickDonalds actual facts behind what is often viewed as assumptions*
Just started! I've been using direct sources since I start my new "seasons" but this is my first time adding them into the video itself. It feels more honest this way. It also separates what is opinion and what is fact from a source.
How about Plo-Koon vs. Sora Bulq?
That ain't bad. I'm just not super interested in Plo.
Antoine Bandele Oh.
That's probably one for Connor.
+TheNuisanceBird Who?
Bob Kolterjahn Jensaurai1.
Can I just say that Ki-Adi Mundi looks like a smart Santa!
Hah, I always figured he was being alluded to as a Chinese Kung Fu master with a long head.
A few fight ideas
Mace Windu vs Luke Skywalker
Starkiller (Aka Galen Marek) vs Obi Wan Kenobi
Ahsoka Tan vs Galan Marek
Count Dooku vs General Grievous (Or Instead of Count Dooku Darth vader)
The Inquisitor vs Darth Maul
+MaskedScorp 1. Seems good, but the victor might be too obvious.2. Sounds interesting.3. I already asked him that and he thinks that Ahsoka would seriously be outmatched.4. Kind of hard to make out on this one.5. Again, too obvious.
+Bob Kolterjahn Yeah, Luke would stomp Mace.
+Balta Skywalker Really? I don't think so. Antoine only uses ROTJ Luke and while I think he downplays Luke as a fighter I don't think Luke has a realistic chance against Mace as hard fought a fight it would be, Luke's inexperience really matters against Mace because as soon as Luke pegs Mace, Mace changes and adapts leaving Luke guessing again, Mace is also really good at marathon fights so that critical advantage Luke needs to win wouldn't be enough. Sure if Luke survived the fight and could ponder for a while and have a rematch he would stomp Mace but that is not how these matches work.
Redpoppy Ok, he wouldn't stomp Mace, but for me, his refined and calmed style, along with his Force Rage (Which is excessively powerful) would beat Mace.
+Balta Skywalker Problem number 2. Antoine doesn't take the Force Rage into account in Luke's fights because it is not something ROTJ Luke can call on at will based on Legends canon and the ROTJ novel in which Luke only uses Force Rage because of specific plot elements, not something a random stranger would trigger. I agree wholeheartedly that with Force Rage Luke would beat Mace but that is a non factor. I LOVE his refined and serene style, I think Luke takes Obi-Wan's swordsmanship to levels Obi-wan never could, even ROTJ Luke. But Mace has DECADES of experience under his belt, mastery of a form HE INVENTED and 6 other fighting styles if things go sour on Mace. Vaapad is alien territory for Luke so his lack of experience means holes in Luke's defense that Mace would exploit and win. I am on your side, I think ROTJ Luke is very unappreciated even without Force Rage but I don't see how Luke beats Mace consistently.
Love the humor you put into these!
Kudo's good sir!
Heh totally unintentional in this one.
Rorron Corob VS Bultar Swan
As a certain Count once said, "I've been looking forward to this" :-)
My powers have doubled since the last video I made, Darth!
+Antoine Bandele now this tine we will take him together
Most of your vids are about the boys, how about showing us girls some love. Maybe Satele Shan vs Mara Jade (Jedi or Sith), Ahsoka vs Jaina Solo, Satele Shan vs Zannah, Ahsoka vs Zannah, Zannah vs Mara Jade, Nomi Sunrider vs Satele Shan! ohhh Satele Shan vs Kreia!!!
As far as I’ve seen you haven’t done any with Mara Jade, very few with Satele, and most of the Ahsoka ones are against males. Let’s see how the ladies do!!
jaina stomps against ahsoka
😐
I've been waiting for a video on these two. They're aren't two of my favorites, but I've always been interested in them.
They turned out to be quite interesting indeed.
Revan vs Vader
+Chris Allen Problem with that here is what would happen if Revan lost.
(radio transmission) Antoine, you need to retreat, the fanboys are overwhelming us! We are barely holding them o-*BOOM* Damn...fanboys....*dies*
That's tough. It'd be an epic match up.
+Thomas Parkin While Sidious > Vader is a Star Wars fact, I'd like to see a fight between them where Sidious can't use lightning and where there fighting each other at the same speed.
Thomas Parkin In ROTS, he bent the plasma of a lightsaber back. IN Dark EMpie, he vaporized the hilt of the lightsaber which bassically mean no more lightsaber for you in this fight.
Thomas Parkin Sidious's power could easily overwhelm Vader. It's like how Ezra Bridger or TCW Ahsoka wouldn't be able to defend against Revan's lighting.
You know, I think a battle between Yaddle and some one like, say, Ventress or Maul would be an awesome fight. Also, I love how you make it seem like your going to give one person the edge, and then just swing it around and logic your way into giving it to the other fighter. It's freaking cool.
Yaddle's achievements are so thin.
True, but she's always been one of my favorites in the EU.
Obi Wan Kenobi vs Batman
If you are asking who would win, the answer is yes.
I'm saying do that for a video. And yes we all win.
elfsong713 I'm not sure you got the joke.
Apparently not.
+elfsong713 with Prep Time, Batman, without it, probably Obi Wan
Haha good way to end your video, I really enjoyed it! About the versus part, nice video again.
Thanks dude.
Vive la france...🇫🇷
Liberté, égalité, fraternité.
+Bird In Motion Long Live England
WarsInAction Is that supposed to be anti-French?
That was pretty cool. Well thought out, Antoine. And the "next time", that sounds good. A fan fight, heck a literal Fanboy Faceoff LOL.
Thanks dude.
Antoine Bandele Totally.
Yeah Depa Billaba would win
Agree, I do.
My ears are stopped up, thank you for something to listen 2.
You're welcome kind sir.
+Antoine Bandele please please please please put these super soldier titans against each
other master chief in his new Mjiolnir Mk Iv (gen II) armor vs captain america*
+Antoine Bandele boba vs jango fett
+Antoine Bandele if your a star wars fan join legion of the empire on kik messenger. we will talk about any star wars topic that any member brings up we can post vídeos or photos related to star wars .
P.S if you dont want to join then tell your friends about it to join.
Love the blooper reel! Nice vid and I agree with your points.
Thanks Sun.
Antoine Bandele XD! No one calls me that you know! :)
Great video! A good way to debut Ki Adi Mundi and Depa Billaba. Since I have no knowledge of Depa's skill aside from comics, I will just have to take your word for it.
Or, you know, read _Shatterpoint_. ;-)
I don't have the book. All well.
+centerofstar I managed to once find the audiobook on RUclips.
TheNuisanceBird Really, show me the link please.
You are my favorite Versus guy Antione!
Thanks dude, much appreciated.
+Antoine Bandele May the burp be with you
Ayy my girl Depa did it :D. Nice to see her in a VS video by you Antoine. Loved how you mention her condition during her fight with Mace. Everybody loves saying Mace was in crappy condition, but they cover their ears when they hear Depa's condition.
Anyway nice video. Any hints for the next video?
It's very true. She too went through much of the same hardship Mace did ... but for months. Granted, she did not have a lightsaber wound through the gut or half of her neck eaten out.
Yeah next vid is always hinted at the end.
Terrific Video right here. Only fear is that you will run out of Star wars characters to make a battle with, and thus, the versus series of star wars comming to an end :c
That won't likely happen. I've barely scratched the surface of Star Wars combatants on this channel.
Great news then. Because with you, i have remembered all i knew about star wars and learned so much more. I never knew that Ki-adi-mundi was such a badass jedi. And by the way, that pun though xD
another great vid like always Antoine u r number 1 when it it comes to versus vids to me ^^
Thanks Hyuga.
Not going to lie, when you mentioned the First Order in the intro, it kind of scared me. Scare me, in that with the inclusion of new cannon things it made me worried that soon you'd stop including Legends cannon stuff in your videos altogether. Hopefully that's not the case in the future. Amazing vid by the way. Keep up the good work.
That is not the case at ALL. In fact, when and if I use Kanan, I expect his first match up would be against Xanatos. Right now, I think they are on par. But if Kanan has some better showings going forward, not so much. But it's too soon to use someone like Kanan.
I like these minor prequel Jedis. I'd like to see more videos with Kit Fisto, Plo Koon, Adi Galia etc.
Oh snap Adi Gallia was my favorite in Jedi Power Battles. I loved her bouncy fighting style.
Awesomeness as always.
Thanks Luke.
I'd like to see Depa Billaba vs Obi-Wan Kenobi. She was a primarily offensive fighter, who had defensive skills, whereas Obi-Wan was the greatest Soresu Master of all time. Plus, neither of them used the Force in the middle of combat as much as other Jedi or Sith, instead letting it use them. I think it would be really cool to see.
I'm not sure. Possibly, but aside from Mace, Depa Billaba was the only person to master Vaapad, and her combination of both it and Soresu could potentially allow her to contend with Obi-Wan.
@@FallenOne669 Legends Depa vs Obi Wan would have been a great duel. However, it's never acknowledged that Depa trained in Vaapad. I believe she was still trained by Windu. It's said tho that she used Form III. That's how the Grand Inquisitor knew Kanan's form and who his Master was. I'm don't believe the was trained in Vaapad. That's why I like Legends Depa way more than Canon Depa.
I am not sure on this tho. The video is really confusing. He gives both Legends and Canon versions Depa. This is his only video I've had a problem with. It's really confusing honestly. If it's straight Canon,I believe Mundi takes this fight most of the time. If it's Legends, then I say Depa wins most of the time.
Man i love your videos, I get to learn so much in just one video. I just wish I could give a suggestion. The only one pops to my mind is that kid that survived the Padawan purge vs Xanatos. :(
Kanan vs Xanatos could be good. Xanatos would beat Caleb Dume though.
Oh okay. Still thanks for taking the time to reply to my comment. :)
+Antoine Bandele I think he meant the Padawan Massacre.
I thought purge and massacre ment the same thing in regards to people.
Dragon thunderX I was saying how I think how Antoine got the Padawan massacre mixed up with the Great Jedi Purge.
Nice video. It felt very much in the same vein as Jensaari's Luminara vs. Vindican and GreyJedi's Farfala vs. Nihl. I really like the exposure for lesser known characters. Feris Olin one day?? Looking forward to the next one though I have no faith in Ryan. He has lost every duel he's been in :P Keep up the good work dude!
Hah, thanks Umesh.
The end of this video is fantastic, add it to all of your videos please
You mean the bloopers? I don't always screw up like that 😜
Really enjoy watching these videos! It would be awesome to see Aayla Secura in one of these versus videos. Thanks ;)
I never had much of an interest in her but yeah ... I should include her.
+Antoine Bandele Oh ok, thanks
Suggestion for the vs series I always wanted to know your thoughts on lord scourge, I don't know who I would want him to see againts. Just for the fact he is not in the elite of jedi/sith in my book by going off of the novel revan he was obviously under revans level and revan powered was only surpassed by the absolute best of force users vitiate, palpitine, yoda, luke ect. Your thoughts?
ruclips.net/video/gMkTK2EkGiA/видео.html
Imagine that, instead of boring old Agen Kolar, Mace Windu, Ki'adi Mundi, with his awesome old PURPLE lightsaber, alongside Kit Fisto, and Saesae Tiin, Two purple lightsaber wielding awesome Jedi masters against Sidious, bet he would have lasted longer then Agen Kolar and Saesae Tiin. And maybe Kit Fisto.
another great vs video.
Thanks Triple-T
Damn.... this is the most organized versus episode I've seen. (THANK YOU FOR SOURCES!!!) Anyway I know you have this already set up but what do you think would happen in a Sidious vs Abeloth match. Also using Ryan f*cking killed me!
Abeloth should beat Sidious.
Yeah, I'm going to continue to cite sources going forward. I always did for my personal use but never publicly, which I think is most appropriate.
Good video! I was really rooting for Mundi (third favourite Jedi), but I can see how you gave Depa the win.
Thank you.
I present opinions. I don't really _give_ anything. Only an author or creator can do that.
It's interesting Ki-Adi isn't held up in more conversations. He always seemed like #3 on the council to me.
Good job. I agree with the points and verdict. I too can't believe these two characters haven't been in more videos, they're very interesting characters. Didn't Kenobi train Bilaba in form 3?
Speculatively yes. The comic alludes to it but it's not directly said.
Very underrated video. I like it!
One of your best
I agree. I would use less known characters more often but they are less watched.
Antoine Bandele Good vid just subed can u do
Revan vs the hero of tython
Yoda vs Darth Krayt
Dziga ... Despite comments, RUclips analytics suggest otherwise. A majority do not care for these characters.
Please do your own Vader vs Yoda/ Mace Windu vs Yoda Video ok? Because I'm not at all satisfied with the existing ones. One of these would be SO great. I love your videos, you're doing a great job.
Thank you. I've thought about making a counter to Yoda vs Vader.
Mace vs Yoda is already established in the lore:
"With a stooped, small appearance, Yoda may not look like a warrior, but his skills with a lightsaber were unequaled." A Guide to Weapons of the Force
"We've not seen Mace fight yet, and we know that he's second only to Yoda." Nick Gillard
"Mace Windu's fighting abilities are second only to Yoda." George Lucas
"I'm like the second baddest guy in the universe." Samuel L. Jackson
"I am not [Yoda's] equal in peace or war." Mace Windu in Dark Redezvous
"Though it was true that he had slowed slightly in the years that Mace Windu had known him, Yoda's skill with a lightsaber was still second to none on the council." Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter
"Master Windu was also known within the Order for his unusual fighting style, one that he developed after studying the dueling styles of various lightsaber masters. His attacks consisted of relentless, unpredictable blows, like shots from an autoblaster. Master Windu himself remained perfectly balanced and centered. In the history of the Jedi Order, only two opponents ever overcame him in battle. One was Master Yoda, who some said was the Order's true master of lightsaber combat. The other was former Master Dooku, whose own fighting style was archaic, yet stunningly effective." Power of the Jedi Sourcebook
The thing is that jedi like Ki-Adi Mundi got killed of little to easy.. even if he was captured of guard we have seen jedi handle such before, so many jedi died like flies during order 66, probably because they needed to because of plot. Plo Koon got ship got shot down witch makes a bit more sense.
Jedi aren't infallible. We've seen them shot down before.
Indeed, but it kinda looked a bit too easy during the order 66 scene
Old video but I'm watching all of your Star Wars vs series. Anyway how about Satele Shan vs Sideous? I searched for one but couldn't find any.
This video I would still call new. It's less than a year old. Sidious vs Satele, to me, is a mismatch.
Would that be in Sidous's favor?
I just finished Shatterpoint. Indeed Depa Billaba has become one of my favorites so I like the video and the verdict
I don't remember that you had a sence of humor. XD
This video was true entertainment. :)
It slips every now and then.
Awesome video man, I've been wanting to see Ki Adi Mundi in a versus video, even though he lost
what do you think of Obi-wan vs Hoth?
Hoth's feats are too thin for my tastes.
Honestly I was going to ask for someone else then I realized the match up I thought of was already done. I thought of Hoth in a "off the top of my head" moment
How does Revan vs Bane sound?
Interesting match-up, Antoine! I really enjoyed the breakdowns of the characters, and definitely agree with the conclusion. Though, to be totally honest, I don't feel your script was quite on point. No offense, of course, it's just there were several moments throughout the video where you said the same word or set of words several times over the course of two or three sentences. Got a bit repetitive, you know? Just something to watch out for in the future.
Also, on a side note, I really enjoyed the blooper real! Absolutely entertaining!
Especially the quadruple use of "council" in the beginning.
Antoine Bandele Yeah, that was definitely the most jarring to me. But I enjoyed the video nonetheless. Keep up the good work, man
hi there, im a really big fan of your star wars versus series and really love the few cross over episodes you've done as well, anyway, ive been playing swtor a lot lately, you know the online one, its got me thinking, would it be possible to do some versus battles with characters from that game? it might be hard to do but it would be cool to see the players accomplishments as a sith warrior in the game stacked up against some other characters in star wars, it might be easy just to look up the full story line of what ever character you might do, if you do.
Great work! Would love to see more Masters from the prequels used in battle.
Me too.
Bro the end had me dieing
Not sure if I agree with this. There are quotes suggesting Mundi is up there with Yoda and Mace as one of the very best jedi in the council. I think there is quote that suggests he is the third best as of AOTC. And I would put Mundi holding his own against Grievous while exhausted and at a form disadvantage firmly above anything Depa has done.
Ranking on the council has little to do with combative viability, especially the Jedi council.
Can't help but notice that Ryan Wieber Vs Shane Farley didn't happen, at least as far as I'm aware. Is it still going ahead at some point, or has it been indefinitely shelved? I'm guessing the latter.
Hasn't been released yet. I started it but didn't like where it was going.
Ah, that's cool. No point in releasing a video if you're not satisfied with it.
Can you do a bounty hunter or smuggler video.
Boba vs Jango is coming early next year.
+Antoine Bandele hk47 vs ig88 (i think thats its name)
Alright @Antoine Bandele i got a match up for ya that should really give you a buzz. Renegade squadron vs Clone commandos.
Make it happen man i wanna see what you got.
Great video and I agree with the verdict. However, I find it odd that you made a brand new video when it's been months since Jensaarai1 teased Scourge vs Kota.
He put out the teaser before our collaboration was completed.
Antoine Bandele Is it done now, though? When is the video gonna come out?
Hey Antoine what about ki adi mundi vs darth plagueis the brave vs the wise
That’s a mismatch in Plagueis’ favor.
At least a mention of Mundi and Billaba. I'm surprised that they haven't been used by the most popular versus series creators so far. While I like Mundi much more than Billaba I have to agree with the verdict. However I think you have overlooked that Vaapad doesn't reach its full potential against Jedi due to the lack of emotion which could feed Vaapad. On the other hand she could at least use her own inner darkness to empower Vaapad.
Hopefully we will see them again in another matchup. They deserve much more attention.
There is a misconception that the power of Vaapad only derives from an exterior source. Also, the pure technique of Vaapad is overlooked.
I have plans for another Depa match up, Ki-Adi as well!
