The New Master's Corner

Heh heh thats one of my favourite moves from all the movies... so I don't care how realistic it is ;D ;D ;D

There was another thing I was thinking about that would be a pretty lightsaber unique technique - using it as a distraction. The blade glows brightly and emits a fair amount of sound when it is in motion, so it would create a good bit of confusion if it was used to distract the opponent. I remember my old driving instructor (who also taught kung fu) showing me a weapon that was sort of like a blunt chrome mace, and one of the ways of using it was to spin it around with one hand and attack the opponent with the other. I think a technique like this would be quite effective with a lightsaber. The only problem would occur when fighting a Force sensitive opponent, who can predict attacks anyway.
