[QUOTE]Originally posted by NeitherJediNorSith: [QB] [QUOTE]Or because Kenobi was relativly inexperienced when he fought Maul. (Maul himself would have been a relative rookie: it's VERY unlikely he'd ever fought a Jedi before Ep.I)[/QUOTE]He's fought many many enemies and he's even saber sparred with Palpatine. The excerpt that I read said that he attacked Palpatine with all of his might and anger, and that he actually almost bested him for a brief moment. The novelization of Ep1 also states that Maul had reached the peek of his abilities. He was the best he could ever be, he wasn't going to get better. That suddenly made me see Maul as very pathetic whereas I used to think he was very amazing. Yes, Obi-Wan was inexperienced when he fought Maul. He was still a padawan. They allowed him to take on the rank of Knight because the battle with a Sith substituted the trials. Who was better at the time? I feel that Maul was marginally better in terms of skill, but definitely not with heart. Obi has only grown since then. Obi-Wan at the end of Ep2 could defeat Maul from Ep1, no contest. Anyway, your comment rings some truth. However, I literally read on the official site that Obi-Wan's anger tapped into the dark side just a tab bit and that allowed Maul to sneek in a force maneuver. [QUOTE]Mabye he'd fought someone using it before or -possibly- Jedis are specifically trained to both use and repel force-generated electrical attacks.[/QUOTE]I doubt it's a secret. All Jedi probably know about it in theory (at the very least). I'm assuming you must be quite powerful and skilled to utilize it. You'll note that even though he countered it, he was seemingly scared right after Dooku zapped Anakin. [/QB][/QUOTE]
