What could the purpose of a lightsaber like this possibly be? To save space? to cut things faster...

I remember an anime character (I think it might have been an FF one) that had twin blades like that. the reasioning behind was that 2 cuts right next to each other wouldn't heal. That doesn't work with light sabers, so i dunno.

ITT: we predict other dumb shit they'll make

>lightshields
>4-way lightsabers
>lightsabers that can also fire blaster bolts
>lightsabers that change different colors like a rave

>what could the purpose of a lightsaber like this possibly be?
To sell toys to children and fuckwit man children and tumblr landwhales.

It cuts twice. Also traps your opponent's lightsaber in the middle. And before you reply with "just turn it off lol", that's an easy slash opportunity.

A lightsaber that spins around your hand fast enough to make a light shield.

she probably raped kylo rens crossguard into this to show that she can even mary sue crawlinginmyskin lightsaber crystals into a working jedi weapon.

i think its a nod to the empire strikes back when vader compliments luke about building his own lightsaber

It's an instant toaster. You drop slices of bread between the blades and both sides crisp up in seconds. A real time saver.

Can she do this?

if you look at the expanded material, lightsabers are actually really interesting and designs like this "could" make sense with enough technobabble.

Basically the flow of plasma in the saber makes it sort of like a crazy powerful chainsaw, so along one plane of the blade it cuts way better. if that plane is perpendicular to the other blade in Darth Rey's stupid thing, it could potentially make cutting things easier.

More likely, however, is that the magnetic field that contains the plasma is way stronger in this configuration, making blocking her swings much harder as the magnetic field pulls a weaker saber away from her opponent.

>he doesn't understand the relevance of a FEMALE jedi wielding a SCISSORS lightsaber
oh child

Its whole purpose was to make that one cool shot for the trailer, just like Kylos saber with the stupid guard in TFA, there is no other reasoning behind this

good lord

>it’s a sith-shiv
lol

as a kid I always wanted a jedi to use those shields that the Gungans had in phantom menace and go with a sword and buckler sort of build.

>we need a new, cool, lightsaber design
>uhhhhhh how about taping two together
>you mean like Darth Maul? nah people have seen that before
>no, I mean going the same way

So you can snap the blades together quickly and avoid this stupid move when beheading an opponent.

>lightsabers that can also fire blaster bolts
happened in rebels

I'm surprised they haven't done twin daggers desu.

Children aren’t that stupid. The other two will though.

They never did

JJ Abrams is about "cool" looking yet ultimately deeply goddamned retarded set pieces and scenes.

I think you're right. At least Kylo's looked like it was a haphazardly made one. This just looks retarded.

Isn't that just a blaster?

JESUS FLIES THAT SPACESHIP, ITS NOT STUPID, U R

That's not stupid though

>At least Kylo's looked like it was a haphazardly made one

The kylo ren light saber was just as lambasted.
It was called and still is thought of as being outright fucking retarded,

it switches

>B-wing
>Cross-shaped

On my planet it means "Best"

I agree Kylo's lightsaber retarded but the side beams are understandable. The two blades just looks retarded.

Oh that's pretty good. You get 2 weapons for one battery. The shapes look retarded from today's perspective but hey, it's a no recoil and no blade weight weapon so it has some leeway.

The thing is that they made such a deal from the design of Kylos cross guard on the saber but in two movies it never once was useful in any situation, you would expect to at least have a scene where it actually wins him a fight or something but no, its just there to make a opening scene of a trailer exciting, he might as well have a normal light saber there would be no difference to the story. Dooku at least had a kind of unique fighting style to justify the stupid bent sabers

just turn your brain off bro lmao
please just get hyped and consume product, no need for questions

AND it spins so fast you can fly

I think they already did this in one of the animated series

The b stands for blade.

>>lightsabers that change different colors like a rave
My former rave days self would have bought 10 of those to bring to parties. Disney would never do anything like that, in the sense that they would never sell any merch that people want to actually buy anymore.

that's the joke dumbfuck

Jesus christ no wonder Disney doesn't need to hire me when they are 3 years ahead of me.
I can't believe everyone doesn't use this design. It's too damn useful.

Swords irl cant deflect bullets

Grievous kind of did that already

holy shit this is real

I know. I hate swords in movies if they aren't period correct.Even then, most sword fights come off as extremely gay.

so glad I never watched this trash

>there's no way to hold it properly while its folded
Define 'properly' because she's doing a fine job of holding there in the picture.

fuh-fuh-fuh-faggotry

You didn't know? I can't wait until you guys find out about the time portals...

It makes sense.
Perfect sense.
However, it's conceptually motherfucking retarded and is quite honestly there because JJ Abrams thinks it looks cool.
It doesn't.,

No they fucking aren't understandable
It's two goddamned lightsabers sticking out of the fucking sides that makes dueling more complex and dangerous for the wielder then it has to be.

It doesn't look cool
It doesn't make sense
It's more then likely there as a "subtle" christian cross bad thing.

Dooku's crossed handle can easily be reasoned out. It helps him in his fighting style.
Even darth maul's double light saber which was more cool then useful allows him to use it in a standard way.

The thing with Kylo Rens sword?
It's just retarded.

Ren does use the quillon against Finn

The way she's holding it just adds extra space for your opponent to cut. A tuning fork design would work better for a two blades on same side design.
However she immediately switches to a two blades on opposite side design, which then makes me wonder, why the fuck does it fold?

>Portal
>time travel
JUST

On reveal, I thought the side blades on Kylo's lightsaber were for venting extra heat which makes sense for a shitly made design.
Obviously having the blades at an acute angle with the main blade would be better for guarding the hand.
Kylo's blade was retarded, yes. I was saying it looks like a WIP compared to this new disaster of a design.

Amusingly guns were developed in the EU to kill jedi. They were called slug throwers and the lightsaber would just superheat the metal and the jedi would get sprayed with molten bullet shards.

To retard fans talk, find justifications and generate traffic about it.

>Meet QT with tiny hands.
>My cock looks HUGE and she has to use two hands when stroking.

I like the asymmetric designs 2bh

symmetry is obviously the more pleasing of the two, but there's something intriguing about something being asymmetric

honestly it would look cool if Daisey Ridley could do anything physical at all without looking like a total tard. Her running in the trailer is so stiff it makes me uncomfortable, and the way she swings the blade into darth maul mode looks like she is fresh out of the Disney Cloning Tube and hasn't held anything in her hands before. Even the way she holds it before flipping it is awkward, like she is a late night paid programming model trying to show off some overpriced jewelry.

Get somebody who has played with a butterfly knife for five minutes and it would be smooth and look pretty cool.

Anime reckons plasma swords could deflect bullets but I'm sure you could get past that with big enough slugs. hooktube.com/xU33wjohYQ4?t=36

SW Rebels is the second worst thing that Filoni made. It had wolves-like creatures because he's a furfag and he created a time portal so he could bring his waifu back from the dead.

ah yes, it's common knowledge within the lore that the force is full of owls

It looks nice but that's about it. Time travel outside of closed loops isn't something you want to touch.
Haha please come back George.

>all the butthurt incels ITT
they put a woman jedi in star wars and all you do is bitch. Now they give a sith woman a badass lightsaber and what do you do? Oh yeah cry about it more. Also, it's cool. Its supposed to be like a numb chuck

Maul's dual saber was the only other lightsaber that made practical sense and didn't look retarded. The EU was full of retarded lightsaber designs and now canon movies are following suit. The lightsaber tonfa, the lightwhip, the lightsaber pike, the cross guard lightsaber, the saber suit - all spawn from the same place: capeshitters who like star wars because of the cool waser wards. Your average star wars fan is basically Airsoftfatty, a wretched individual that's some combination of fat, stupid, immature, or tasteless, all obsessed with the zoom zooms and pew pews of Star Wars.

The greatest moment in Star Wars, and what defined the series for me, is that quiet moment when Yoda says to Luke "Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter" while he touches Luke's shoulder. That's not true for the average Star Wars fan though. Ask any one of the capeshitters that now make up the Star Wars fandom what their favourite moment in Star Wars is and they'll say something faggy like this youtube.com/watch?v=rohKkbk-iiM

It's now certifiably a franchise for retards.

Also there are all kinds of light sabers so get over it.

Assumedly they detach for dual-wielding

Maul's saber looked cool at least. But it wasn't a practical design either and I think it led to the eventual flood of retarded sabers.

Then why not carry 2 that you can join together? This way you're about 1 second slower to get your saber ready compared to the shitter with an pleb's common saber.

Unironicaly many purposes if you are not a brainlet trying to shit on nu-wars for any reason you can

like for penetrating both holes at the same time to meditate on the pain it gives you, to increase your dark side powahs

how does that work

No they fucking dont. It's just another retarded lightsaber design in new starwars

Now...
user.
The people you are shitting on have been fucking sw fans for literal generations. Looooong before the mcu and new sw.

The lightsaber was a bad gamble that jj made. Tut hata all

It doesn't. You could fire lightsabers from a normal bow but that's it.

Name one

I mean lightsabers are retarded to begin with. They usually have no cross-guard, and the blade is as deadly to the user as it is to the enemy, so one wrong move or jerk of it and you've just sliced your hand off.

Slicing sausages twice as fast. Perfect for kitchen dwellers.

Which is why they can only be wielded by force users, cyborgs and Disney-Niggers, you tard.

Bullshit. Its a poorly designed weapon that is more dangerous to the person using it than the enemy.
