Game Theory: Star Wars Lightsaber Vs Halo Energy Sword 

You're absolutely right

Ultimate Scotty yes but that would probably end in the death of both of them because by time the saber turned back on the energy sword user would have had enough time for them to bring to sword down slashing the opponent but the lightsaber would probably turn on leaving them both bleeding out

@@justsomechairwithoutamusta8275 That's an option.

That's an actual light saber technique

@Samuel Lang depending on where the jab is aimed, just duck first

How does Caboose know this?

Because he plays the game

Im a halo veteran

@@emoore16 and me

Same

and a jedi would be much easier to cut through than an armoured elite or spartan so realistically the sword would only deplete like 5 percent

The lightsabers can last up to 10 hours if i remember correctly😅

@@Cuccora A fight wouldn't go on for over 30 minutes Tho.

@@Cuccora no it’s 50-100 years and then they only have to replace the battery

@@noscw What battery they use crystals to power the light sabers and those crystals recharge when ever they aren’t being used

+Big Ben Well... its heavy and... you... um... Boom?

Well, considering neither franchises implement much physics, I'd say that it would probably just act like a shockwave that harms everyone except the wielder.

Jason Zhao No they dont ignore physics, spartan armor would allow people to wield it and it probably only projects damage outwards.

Beauty my friend, and death!

+Big Ben lightsaber could cut it in half

Amen Dude

Probably because his can of diet coke was taken hostage

Just came from the same video lol

I came back here just to comment on it but you beat me to the punch

Bruh

true it even works the same bc it also uses a Kyber Crystal although the crystal is huge

I'm redoing this episode on my channel, except I'm adding a 3rd challenger in the ring

everybody using halo energy swords be gangsta till a competent lightsaber wielder shows up

lol found one of the sexist incel geeks and no, you are not worth conversing with, so I will ignore any response

Haha kudos. You upset one of the soy boy betas who think anybody takes the word "incel" seriously other than his virtue signaling friends and the online virgins trying to claim it to take the words power away.

+DragoSonicMile Grab a stick with one hand. Swing it around. Do you hit your own arm? If no, congrats! You wouldn't cut your arm off with a lightsaber. If yes, you probably have some serious motor control issues or seizures and I apologize for bringing this up.

+The Game Theorísts fake

+Unus Domus just try swinging a flashlight around and try not to hit your self with the beam (All of the weight is in the handle)

+DragoSonicMile your user name tho

A stick has weight on all parts of it the light saber is all handle weight and a fast death part that if a single mistake is made lops off body parts. Would take lots of training to properly use stick swinging or no. Swing the stick often and statistically you will hit yourself and it only has to happen once.

The wrist protection is made of plasma, meaning that pressure you put there likely wouldn't do anything as its essentially the same as hitting the main blade, which hasn't been severed by plasma in star wars lore(that I know of). And, going by the video, they are made of the same stuff meaning it would likely just glance off. Not to mention that there are lightsabre wrist guards in the form of Kylo Ren's sword which do the exact same thing.

Well game theory is right The hacks Smith technically made a PROTO-Saber not a lightsaber

@@OnTheSamePage- Well if you can call that a saber since if you made another one of those it wont clash with each other it is more like a oversized plasma cutter so game theory was right

So true

if youve watched the hacksmith vid they said it takes a nuclear power plant in a battery to make an actual lightsaber without a power pack connected to it.

true

The ur right it’s just so it’s not overpowered same with the grav hammer

yuh

@@mahadahmed2311 alos the fact that a sword clash in the game doesn't lose you power anyway, you only lose power on a killing blow

But its not a video on lore its a video on who is more powerful IN THE GAME.

And the movies

dude the battery part is about if it was made in real life by us not aliens in like 500 years its saying if it was made right now

+Josh Riggin. have you even played halo because the way i remember it (i played it last week) i killed 10-15 enemy's before my sord ran out of energy and the swords actually last longer in the hands of the covenant because there's a fail safe in the weapon ( which is stated in several of the halo books) and if given to a covenant enginer the enginer will fix they failsafe making it last way longer ( if you could not tell i am a halo nerd)

@@krutarthdave1938 Luck is a construct of superstition. There is only the Force.

In halo if you don't hit the person properly they will still be alive since you only took out the shield and not to forget energy swords give the godly power of mid distance lunging 😂

"Energy constantly flows through the crystal. You're not fighting with a simple blade as much as you are directing a current of power. Your thoughts, your actions, they become energy." - Kanun Jarus. The lightsaber has weight, the energy that it is running through it exerts pressure, giving it the feeling of weight. Not to mention the wielders thoughts and emotions become some of that energy

Boi get back to being dead

Unless you're Darth Maul.

Grievous ya well that didn’t end well for you either

Grievous I have questions for you & you’re gonna talk. What were you doing on Kashyyyk having at that Trandoshan Slavers Camp of who captured the Wookiee Chieftain Tarful when the Clone Commando’s of Delta Squad had a positive I.D. visual on you & your ship’s I.D. Soulless One? Also why were there Geonosians there as well? Also what happened to Delta Squad Member RC-1207 called Sev? It was shortly after you attacked them in a nearby Wookiee Hangar This Transmission came up after they used the 4 Quad Turbo Lasers to take out a Separatist ship over Kachiro the Capital City: Sev: "Boss, I've got a problem here!" Boss: "Sev, where are you?" Sev: "Sector…multiple hostiles…Sir!" Fixer: "Lost his signal, Boss!" Boss: "Well, find it again, damnit! Squad, regroup! We're going after Sev." Clone Advisor 1: "Negative negative, 38! New orders came through from the Jedi Generals! Clear the area! EVAC now!" Boss: “I don’t care if they came from Master Yoda himself!” Clone Advisor 1: “As a matter of fact, they DID, Soldier. Now get your squad out of there. Scorch: “Blast our orders! Forty?” Fixer: “He’s right, Boss. We gotta EVAC!” Scorch: “Sir, we have to go back!” It happened before the Republic Forces arrived on Kashyyyk. I will get 07’s info out of you & all of your allies.

Qui Gon Jinn I have learned more of how Anakin originated from for you he was created by Sith Alchemy of the Power Midi-Chorian Manipulation which was created by Sith Lord Darth Plagueis who taught it to his student Darth Sidious aka Sheev Palpatine that used Midi-Chorians to make Anakin which explains why his Mother somehow got pregnant & had no husband. Palpatine knew once The Chosen One was found his master would execute him & take Anakin in for training. Palpatine killed Plagueis in his sleep. Posing as a Naboo Senator he would await his chance to get elected as Chancellor of the Republic. He played both roles on both sides like a fiddle, once Anakin’s talent by taking out that Trade Federation Control Ship which had commanded the Droids Jar Jar & The Gungans were fighting. He set up the entire Clone Wars to test him while you’re Master Count Dooku served as Mauls replacement until he made Jedi Knight, you’re Master usefulness came to an end. When Anakin executed him. He wanted to learn the power of what created him to prevent Padmé Amidala’s death. When Anakin was defeated by Obi-Wan on Mustafar, Palpatine used the power to keep his new apprentice alive by taking Padmé’s life away from her until his new prosthetic mechanical limbs & Life Support Suit was Online. He lied about Anakin killing Padmé with his anger. With nothing left to bring him back to the Light Side, The Chosen One became Darth Vader & hunted all of Jedi but few survivors to extinction. The Light Side inside of him was reawakened by his Son’s plight he did fulfill the Prophecy at the cost of his own life. You were right about him. But now His Grandson Ben Solo now has become Kylo Ren & wants to continue become like him when he was Darth Vader how can he be redeemed to the Light Side?

Soo funny that im crying now

Energy Sword: *yEeTuS? nAy! YoUr LiFe HaS gOnE aWaY!*

Very right

Ha ha. He said the funny

i didnt find it funny at all lol

That doesn't make the results incorrect, It is surprisingly easy to anticipate and catch a narrow rod-like object in between openings that are similar to energy sword's. Also since elites are specifically trained to use the trapping technique along side others means the users are... well... used to it.

some energy swords have handguards that cover the entire hilt, and the older models round out at the bottom, almost coming together. The newer ones have a little bump which, while less effective, seem to serve the same purpose. And the Halo infinite one is the same as the older models. If anything is wrong about the video it's the fact that you would absolutely stab yourself with those wristguards, and that the energy sword has way more than 10 hits canonically.

And even if the lightsaber DID somehow get in there in the first place, what's stopping them from... Turning it off?

@@stormshadow5382 Except we have never seen a trapping weapon with such a tiny gap. We have never seen elites catch with their swords except maybe other big energy swords, and even that is relatively rare. The fact of the matter is that such a small gap would mean a horrible trapping design.

@@Bornheck Becase if they do they will get stabed before they can turn it back on.

yep, no one talks about how you can just turn it off and back on again like some toy, and if we aren't talking about someone being trained in the weapon being the 1 to use it, then trapping another weapon is even more useless.

+Norm Dalgo why u mean to matpat?

+JCstock Harmless self advertisement in his own channel.

+Matthew Smith Yeah, the crystal is infused with the wielder's connection to the force. Explaining why those who embrace the dark side of the force have red lightsabers, and those who embrace the light side have Blue and Green, (Mace Windu's is a special one).

+Dylan H Ye it's because he embraces the energy of Jedi and Sith

+Dylan H to produce the red affect the sith actually use synthetic crystals.

No....No, just stop...It's caused by crystals found on the planet Ilum. During the old republic the colours were used to discern a Jedi's position or occupation. Blue is the colour of the Jedi Guardian, Green the colour of a Jedi Consular and Yellow the colour of a Jedi Sentinel. Red crystals however are synthetically made.

Korrigan Lightsabers do not require the force to work.

Except the energy sword can technically be done the same through movement.

@@shcdemolisher Not with any strength or agility

I feel they might just phase right through each other as I believe they are made of different types of blade plasma

Yeah there’s a reason sideways hilt swords have never been used in real life lol, energy swords would be the worst swords ever this was a bad take

@@DrBoofenstein Not to be rude but they have it is called the Katar and was used for years until they changed to look like wolverine claws.

Yup ; )

"cough cough" arbiters energy sword had UNLIMITED POWER

Lol

The advantage: Energy swords are a one hit ko And the last 10 swings is only in the game for balancing, In the expanded universe, the energy sword can last forever if u dont put it away

false, lightSaber would be stolen in 1 move

@@cursedice517 but if we say that both party’s could use all powers then the Jedi could just use the force to help them not get caught ( not that it matters I love both franchises {sequels not included} )

+Tatari Lives Please note I said "Knights" of the Old Republic. I have no knowledge of "The" Old Republic. Two different games.

Yeah i noticed he didn't mention that.

+Tatari Lives kyber crystals are canon and are a horn a few times in the clone wars series

The Force Unleashed also mentions the crystals (or well, shows them and uses them if you ever customize the lightsaber)

+Tatari Lives The Old Republic was produced as a sort of sequel to KotOR by BioWare and you use crystals in it too. For both lightsabers and blasters as upgrades, but as far as I know, the story in the starting area of the Jedi Counsellar puts much emphasis on compiling the parts of your first lightsaber (including a focusing crystal) and assembling it.

*alive

+Daniel Knapp but no it only takes like 2 hits and the user of the lightsaber would be at a major speed advantage

I thought that too.

I'm not sure the speed advantage of the light saber would be that significant. Plasma doesn't exactly weigh a ton. The energy sword hilt is slightly larger, but even a small difference in strength makes up for that.

Ty The Guy the user has more ways to swing it

Yeah that is a big part of the lightsabers

They won't look it up because they don't want to be proven wrong. They want their opinion to be the fact, true facts be darned.

this comment must be boosted futher to the top. how about i just reply twice?

(2nd reply)

"Does their anatomy make their forearms less subject to being destroyed by their own weapon? I don't play Halo so I honestly don't know, but having the blade extend to cover the forearm looks really dangerous, especially if it's made of plasma. But then elites may well be like Xenomorphs and just live on stars because why not. I don't know" Yes actually, they have a differently shaped hand that makes wielding the blade much less dangerous.

Sentinel Grandhelios Um,Humans use them though...

Now lets see how you handle it

@@cabbage1791 the halo universe could be where the yuzahn vong came from 🤯

As much as I love the design of the energy sword I don't think the sword breaking design works against a circular blade because there's nothing for the sword breaker to catch onto

Remember, both weapons have no weight in the blades.

TheDiamondSprtn Fair point

+Pendragon Yeah I don't see why a near weightless weapon could be awkward really. It would be easy to maneuver because of how light it is. Pick like any object about the size of the hilt and then you got the weight of the sword. But with a lightsaber you would really just be able to slide down the side of the energy sword and chop their hand off, like the one hand cutting off move.

+Pendragon Naw I'd use eskrima with a lightsaber since it's basically a stick that can cut in any direction.

+Salamence Robot2000 It does but plasma is lighter than air.

+redhandsbluefaces I'm glad I didn't have to be the one who brought the turning on and off up. Not only that but he mentioned the Jedi fighting styles. One of which is a defensive style against other saber users. There also could be Sith styles as well but we won't get into those. And you can't look at weapons without someone to hold them, there wouldn't be a point otherwise. I'm not saying the lightsaber had to be wielded by a Jedi but without a wielder a weapon would just lie on the ground...Unless someone force pushed it.

+redhandsbluefaces Not to mention the grip! There's a reason that most swords are wielded like swords and not like fist extensions. Think about all the weapons that we hold perpendicular to our arm: swords, spears, guns, nunchucks, staffs, whips....

+redhandsbluefaces The energy sword is 4.32 ft

Braydon Ah, yes I just checked. And the length of a lightsaber is about 3 to 4 feet on average. But remember that the blade of a lightsaber can be adjusted at will. Darth Vader's blade, for example, was about 5 to 6 feet long. Lightsaber polearms can reach up to about 7 or 8 feet. A Jedi Wookie had a lightsaber that was like 10 feet long. The user can simply adjust the blade length to have the advantage, yet another feature of a lightsaber that MatPat didn't mention.

+redhandsbluefaces true but I think Matt was just comparing the basic forms of each sword. There are variations of the energy sword as well just like vader's saber. The prophets bane energy sword is longer than the type-1 energy sword. We just have to take each weapon as the most common variant or else we'll be here all day

Well look the saber was used against another saber only when a jedi versed a sith so i mean you dont see hordes of jedi vs hordes of sith

And he was talking about a saber vs the sword so yeah and it should never happen for 100 or so sabers versing 1 saber or sword so yeah. Weve been talking about sword vs saber not 10 or 1 saber vs 100s of blaster wimps

@@Xx_Stogi_xX It was just to state facts. I know when it came out, but a lot of people constantly forget how overpowered the energy sword in HALO 2 was, as each hit only took 5% from the battery, and it one shot almost everything. And even more people forget HALO Legends and other canon stories.

True that dude, like I said before. If your just trying explain it in a better way on how over powered the energy sword really is. Then don’t mind me dude, you have all the right to do so...

@@Xx_Stogi_xX Ah, ok then.

I understand that you're trying to set something straight, but he said the HALO energy sword was better anyways, so there's no real need to point this out.

Nowadays I still don't know which is the power source of the energy sword, the 100% bar shown in the HUD is only to balance the gameplay, it isn't canon

In expanded lore its said it takes 10 years before it needs to recharge

wouldnt say that because the lightsaber is alot more modular than whats shown in the movies. There's a light whip, a lightsaber blaster, a one handed double sided blade and even one that has multiple blades

That’s true

Hold on, those crystals still might have the same gas properties. So he is not wrong about it.

My guess is that they're used to focus or otherwise empower a laser that is used to excite the gas into an ionized plasma.

@@mustafaozturk2542 well, to create a red lightsaber you have to corrupt your kyber using emotions, so i think those things are more magical than scientific.

@@eduardomariano9896 Emotions are happens because your brain release some hormones to make you feel like that, if we look closer into those hormones we might even use those contents, we might change the gas properties as well.

Doesn't matter cause it wins anyway

I just used the bandanna skull to have infinite

Actually according to the extended lore and books, energy swords only have 10 swings ONLY IF IT MAKES CONTACT WITH ORGANIC MATTER. It's been said in the extended lore that a single energy sword was used to split a convanant space carrier just by cutting the supports in half

But lightsabers still last longer even in gameplay as well

well tbh that knowledge wouldn't affect the point he was trying to make with the "battery life" because the cyber crystals are an energy source that responds to the force user who weilds it because lightsabers are unable to be used without the force. as for protosabers, I have no idea
