Title: Which form is best suited for double-bladed lightsabers?
Post by: TheHobbitofDune on October 08, 2012, 11:04:58 PM
Just curious. I'm guessing it would be Ataru, but I'm unsure.

Also, would anyone mind giving me some insight on the strengths and weaknesses of:

A) Single-bladed lightsabers
B) Double-bladed lightsabers
C) Two single-bladed lightsabers

Just curious as to what people's opinions are on the matter :)

We actually did a big discussion on 2x sabers and dual wielding here:

As far as forms that are best suited to the weapon, I have to go with Shii-Cho. It is simple direct and easy to apply to the weapon.

Ataru definitely seems the more aggressive route for double-bladed. But is probably really advanced to use it with acrobatics. Nonymous is right about Shii-cho, its the more effective/direct route.

That's what I think as well, although you could really use any Form with it to a degree.  The nature of the weapon does make it useful in aggressive styles though, so I would say something like Juyo would be pretty well suited too (as Darth Maul demonstrates).
