Captain America vs. Darth Maul

[nj06]

Movie versions for both. Cap gets his shield and Maul gets his dual-sided lightsaber. Assume Cap's shield can withstand Maul's lightsaber.

vs.

[Anarchist]

IF Cap can outspeed Maul, he could end this with a swift shield throw to the head, being much stronger and all that.

That's a pretty big if though, I certainly wouldn't put it past Maul to TK-catch the shield in mid-flight. And then it's instant impalement.

[Cronus]

Exactly. Unless there is a scenario like above, Maul should be able to end this fairly quickly in close quarters.

[Syrile Demonthyst]

Cap really cannot shield throw against a guy with TK.
Assuming Maul has any other Force power like Choke, he can make Cap go in for close quarters fighting.
The speed advantage of Cap is not very significant in this case so he has only a slim chance of landing a hit before getting hacked up.
Not liking Steve's odds in this fight.

[The Arbiter]

I don't see a scenario where cap wins more than 1 of 10 fights honestly.

Nevermind TK.

If Cyborg Bucky can just manually grab that shield out of the air, I don't see why Cyborg Anakin couldn't do that as well.

Um this is Darth Maul not Darth Vader

[Carabas]

Eh. So it is.

I'll just go lie down for a while then...

This was Ninja'd.. however, Vader (Movies only) has really no feats that give him the ability to catch a shield. He moves slowly and cumbersome and has no strength feats to come close to Bucky.
Outside of the Force, of course.

If you meant with just the arm, Anakin still does not have the speed feats of Bucky, nor anywhere near the strength feats.

[Red Wolf]

Flag boy ends up armless and legless and hops around like the black knight in Monty Python and the HG. Maul could just force choke him. Game over.

I'm finding it very difficult not to laugh at that scenario.

ermmmmm

cap could one shot maul but it's the speed that's the issue. the only speed feat i can remember for cap is him, bucky and BP outrunning traffic. maul's TK is a issue but i'm not sure if it's a game breaking issue.

Cap does things like blocking those energy blasts at close range.
Same energy blasts are impossible for normal people to dodge (Hawkeye, from across the room has to push down Nick Fury for example). Hawkeye has to dodge them from further range and shows more difficulty. Thor, on the other hand, casually blocks them with his hammer at close range.

Cap also has things like blitzing Iron Man and various other people, including groups.

But he is not really too fast that he can avoid the saber and still get a hit in very often.

But yes, he can definitely one-shot Maul if given the opportunity.

that's what i mean by the speed being the issue. i'm iffy on him being able to tag him. he can shrug off a few glancing blows from the saber but not a full on stab from it.

and we only have one fight from maul and it didn't tell us much.

[Old Man Ollie 1962]

(Pulls out bugle) It's taps for Cap. Unless Doctor Strange appears after having destroyed Darth Vader on another thread.
