It's over Anakin, i have the high ground... just like Darth Maul had the high ground on me in Episode 1... wait. It finally dawned on you, that you may suffer the same fate! |

During the main part of the duel, I usually don't say very much. However, I almost always start the duel with an unexpected lunge to the chest and I say: (In Chad Vader voice): See? You're not expecting the unexpected enough!  |

When I'm "dueling" my daughter or my youngest son (using his store-bought plastic flashlight sabers) I don't do a lot of taunting.
When dueling my oldest son (he's 16) I DEFINITELY taunt him. He taunts me back too, but I'm not as succeptable to it. I mess with him pretty hard. It's gonna be fun when we get our Ultra Sabers. He and I are gonna have some epic battles.

Whenever you fight a Vader, just ask him how the wife and kids are....Hah, my friend used to dress up as Mace. Think he still does. Anyway, I would usally laugh at him for falling out a window and getting his arm cut off by and elderly man and a brat.

I'd have to say Dooku had some of the best taunts. "Master Kenobi, you dissappoint me, Yoda always held you in such high esteem, surely you can do better. and "My jedi skills have become greater than any other, even you" (said to yoda) Those have always been my favourites. And even non verbal taunts like Darth Maul to Obi-wan right after killing Qui-gon.

Word. xD Nah, I'm not one for taunting. When I'm using Makashi I'm too busy scurrying away and when I'm using Djem So I'm too busy smashing things. I can see it being really useful for a Soresu user, though. |

QFT. I don't trash talk or goad my opponents. It's just not in me. But I will laugh a lot while I'm dueling just because I'm enjoying it. I've been told that it's very irritating and very unnerving. |

Yeah, laughing can be a nasty one. A lot of the best taunts are all non-verbal or body language. It can really mess an opponent up. |

Taunting can be pretty effective, if you can manage it. The problem is taunting can bring your focus off your technique which could give your opponent an opening, but I'm sure there are people who are good enough multi-taskers to pull it off.

Or, alternatively, if you have enough practice on the technique and the movements it works. If you're struggling to keep up with your opponent, taking your focus off to goad them is probably going to get you Darth Maul-ed. |

Now that's not really fair. He did get rid of ONE of the lightsabers, he just didn't plan for him using Qui-gons. Although why he didn't just get down on his knees and poke Obi-wan through the face with his lightsaber I still don't know. |

Lightning might have been safer...if he'd been kneeling at the platform Obi-Wan could have just force-pulled him over the ledge.
Vader also demonstrated well in Episode VI why taunting an opponent isn't always a good idea...xD
