Always lol
This is as close to me as you get. I will not be friending you to setup a hero showdown with your buddies. Sorry, just ain’t happening.
Lmao typical forum member. Offering you a chance to prove what you say if it's so easy. It's a 1v1 not a 2v1 they'll just watch as you'll probably lose. Take me up on the offer bro.
The problem is you are focusing on 1v1's in a team game.
The balance is built around GA, not HvV.
As far as Obi Wan vs Palps, don't think I've come across it, I don't see Palps much these days.

I personally agree. I think it’s fine for one character to have a 1v1 advantage against another character, but I don’t think it’s fine for one character to be completely unkillable by another character when player correctly.

Idk what game you’re playing but I see Palpatine nearly every game.

Read my posts. I specifically say that you shouldn’t attack Palpatine from a distance when he sees you coming. This is exactly the scenario a 1v1 presents.
Palpatine should win a 1v1 against Obi-won with evenly skilled players. But he does not ALWAYS win against Obi-won in typical gameplay.
I don’t appreciate you trying twist things to tarnish my character as it stands on this board btw.
That Luke was too hesitant, too Block happy, had the wrong loadout (Push extended range being one of the Worst cards for dueling as you want to keep your target close to dismember after knocking down etc), and he never committed to an engagement. He kept waiting for cooldowns to see if he could just damage you down to a health level where he felt comfortable in spam attacking you. That’s not a good Luke at all. He’s a cheeser. Not a duelist. That much I can tell from the video. He’s the dude that gets Very happy in HVV for Kashyyk, Hoth, and Naboo if you catch my drift.
In a Luke vs Maul duel, all he needed to do was bait your throw, and wait till at least one of your dashes were used, and Rush through, spin around fast to attack your back 1-2 times, Rush again, repulse, catch up because Maul would try to disengage a little at this point from health loss, then push him, Dash twice, Rush, then finish him. IF he had some health left, just repulse as he’s spinning away to finish him by that point.
I play Luke Aggressively. So even in HVV I use HOK, Rush Immunity, and Push Radius Increase. Keeps me in the fights (get to heal in brawls when I smoke someone while being aggressive/finishing someone off), I have some damage reduction for when I go in, and I can always creep/skill Shot a push when I need it the most.
Good duel though.

Had 1 today (over 2 games hvv), he died, switched to phasma fun time and camped the droid.
Quit after my ls saber team ignored her while the target.

Yup Luke was bad that fight.
That’s what we have been arguing this entire time. In a 1v1, Palps destroys Obi. The only way Obi destroys Palps is if Palps makes a mistake that the Obi can use. The only way Obi is winning is ganging up on Palps. Again, the point we are arguing is that Palps beats Obi by himself every time. Only thing Obi can do is run away. Saying that he can win if he’s ganking is a nonsense argument, Phasma can win against Obi if you gank him. Luke can win against Vader if you gank him. Lando can win against Iden if you gank her. But you take those characters in a 1v1 encounter? They get wasted. Iden wastes Lando, Vader wastes Luke, Obi wastes Phasma, and Palps wastes Obi. Saying anything different dumb.

That Specialist rework was disappointing.
Should win and having no chance are two different things. You said there was no chance. If played right, there is a chance.
Thanks for reminding me of how pointless the thread is though considering 1v1 would be enormously rare between Obi-won and Palpatine and pretty much only in a showdown situation where both took no damage and both teammates died and they new exactly where each other were located.
Every other situation would allow the players to evade and allow the distraction of other teammates to enter into the equation.
There is no real chance at having the Jedi take Palps, unless they outnumber him. Even if you have teammates, any good Palps is going to see you on radar. Again, if a Palps loses to an Obi, they did something wrong. Again, even if they had distractions in GA, Palps would see Obi on the radar, giving no chance to “sneak up.” In HvV, Amy good DS team will pretty much crush LS. Palps is the better hero, and Obi only has a chance if he has some teammates to try and gun him down.

Agreed... Palpatines mobility allows him to kite and wear down saber users with impunity and he will win 100% of the time in a dual assuming equal level of play.

Exactly lol. Saying anything different is *****. Even with soldiers, Palps is more effective at clearing them than Obi, and Palps has his own Soldiers. Obi is screqed in GA, and even in HvV, because villains are superior in killing power.

Pretty much any Jedi loses against Palps.

Eh.. So? Can we see something done?
However, while Obi Wan can't kill Palps alone, he does a good job of making Palps easy pickings for a coordinated assault.
This is partly because if you're being attacked and you try to use your force push, you seem to instantly lose all your health the moment you press the button. It's like it activates some sort of health drain so you die faster than you would if you just stood there doing nothing. Has anyone else noticed this?
Yoda vs Dooku?
Don't chase Palpatine around swinging - stay out of his dark aura - and lure him into an enclosed area and then mind trick him and finish him off - or push him
Be defensive like a Jedi - it takes patience - but Obi-Wan is not at a disadvantage, in fact he's invincible against Palpatine 1 on 1 with his super high stamina and heath regen
If you are playing with teammates the blasters should be the ones to focus on Palpatine because they can all take him out fast - you can assist with pushes, mind tricks, and well times attacks
Impressive. Obi-Wan has taught you well.
Your post makes too much sense, i'm going to put a "lol" on it.
He basically suggest that you can't do nothing against him, and pray that your team will help you
I suggest you read again his post, and this time not from a lightsaber fanboy perspective.
Because as far as i can see, he perfectly pointed out the part you're dishonestly eluding, but let me tell you, people are not stupid.
Palpatine gets destroyed by blasters its a fact. Yet the only complain you see are apparently him destroying saber heroes .
If you want to be taken seriously better start to make points impartially and taking global things into account.
Yeah, and he will have a very hard time trying to kill you. Obi or Saber simply cannot tough him because of his dodge, and that’s pretty much never going to change. You simply have to stall and wait for backup, nothing is going to change that.

So... when you're in the situation where Palpatine is beyond your saber range but within his lightning range, and you're Obi Wan, and he's lightninging you and you are blocking, but because Obi Wan's block doesn't work very well your health is still being depleted during this process, what do you do?
DON'T say stay out of range - Palpatine can move faster, so he dictates the range at all times.
Don't say "use your push" because at that distance, you will need to charge it up and Palpy can see you do that and dash to the side or jump well before you let it go.
And the mind trick? I have yet to see it actually cause an opponent any problems.
If it can't be beaten by mashing the R2 button it's obviously OP. Rule of the Battlefront casual community.
What do you mean my LiGhTsAbEr doesn't solve all my problems when I mash R2!?!? REEEEEE

Right... it is completely imbalanced as it stands... it should solve all by mash!
