Sunryders comment: definitely give it a read as it provides a significant amount of context to this battle to the death. (Thanks again Sunryder for your insights)
Alrighty, here we go again. Thanks for including my response in your previous video, by the way! For this one, I’ll say Qui-Gon defeats Sol 7/10 times.
To start, it is important to note again that the average High Republic (HR) Jedi is noted as superior to Jedi from any other era. This is due to the HR being the canonical peak of the Jedi overall. Sol was a HR Jedi, and he was noted to be an exceptionally formidable one.
Unlike many of the other Jedi whom Qimir was able to kill, Sol bested him twice. Additionally, it seems to be believable to many of the Jedi that Sol could’ve been responsible for the deaths of all the Jedi Knights/Padawans Qimir killed. It’s clear that he was a very capable combatant.
However, Qui-Gon should still take the cake. He is far from an average Jedi and should not be immediately thought to be below the top-tier HR Jedi. The Phantom Menace novel (still canon unless it specifically contradicts something on-screen per Lucasfilm) notes:
“Qui-Gon Jinn was one of the most able swordsmen in the Jedi Order. The Jedi Master he had trained under had considered him one of the best the Master had taught in his more than four hundred years in the Order. Qui-Gon had fought in conflicts all across the galaxy in the span of his life and against odds so great that many others would not have stood a chance.”
While Qui-Gon’s master was later retconned to be Dooku in AOTC*, the point still stands that Qui-Gon was one of the most skilled combatants in the Jedi Order and stacks up very well even against his HR predecessors. *The Revenge of the Sith novel also described Jinn as a “legendary Master in his own right.”
Sol, while noted as extremely competent, does not have accolades on this level. Beyond this, though, we can look at Qui-Gon’s feats.
In a canon comic, Qui-Gon was able to block blaster fire from 22+ guards surrounding him all at once while holding someone with his free hand. Compare this to Master and High Council member Ki-Adi (now confirmed to be included among the HR Jedi) who was shot down by less than half that many clones all from one direction.
Qui-Gon was also able to duel relatively evenly with Darth Maul for a time, a true Sith Lord who relied far more on pure skill with a blade than Qimir (who primarily relied upon trickery and unpredictability). Darth Maul in canon sources is noted as “one of the most skilled and deadly warriors in Sith history,” something which puts his skills above Qimir. Many HR Jedi died to Qimir, and Sol was able to defeat him after a prolonged hard-fought duel (even after already knowing his tricks). Jinn, however, held his own in a prolonged duel against a much more skilled fighter, showcasing his superior skill with a blade.
Now, in terms of Force abilities, it is true that Sol is slightly more apt to use them in combat. Given his Niman form, he primarily demonstrates this in his showing of Force repulse against Qimir. However, he could only do this with a few seconds of breathing room, which Qui-Gon’s relentlessly aggressive Ataru should not provide.
Beyond this, it can be argued that on the slim chance this does come down to a contest of the Force, Qui-Gon would prevail. Leslie Headland was quoted as saying "Then you have Master Sol who I would say is very much of the Qui-Gon blueprint, but definitely not at the level of Qui-Gon Sol is the type of character who would have been in touch enough with the Force to achieve some of the things Qui-Gon did."
Ultimately, though Sol is definitely a very skilled duelist and proficient Force user, he doesn't stack up to Qui-Gon. Jinn's superior skills with a blade would overpower Sol's own while simultaneously not giving him the space to utilize his Force abilities to the fullest.
Even if he did, Qui-Gon likely surpasses him in this as well. The only way Jinn loses is if Sol is able to hold out long enough to tire out Qui-Gon (who has less physical stamina), but Jinn's dueling skills should end the fight well before then most of the time.
