Lemme guess, you're referring to Aries. Well first of all, Aries isn't a Padawan, he lives alone in the streets. Secondly, since he has lived his entire life in the streets, he has fought off and killed many criminals in Onderon. His entire life. That's like practicing Shien his entire life. Does that clear things up for you?

As much as I hate to say it, he's right. A padawan blocking blaster shots so easily is like a child competing in the olympics.

I agree with Barrill.You don't need to know an exact form to deflect blaster bolts.If you gave a padawan a lightsaber and threw him on the streets,he probably would get good at deflecting blaster bolts.Even though it wouldn't be a form,he would have experience in blocking them efficiently.

Yeah he could deflect bolts fire from let's say a trainning droid but there was 150 ELITE sith soldiers firing at him, he would have been killed |

well i agree at both sides....they couldnt just deflect blaster bolts they have to have some force training because it requirs force because you have to reach out with your force...and i agree with barril because aries has had a bit of training and im sure he can deflect bolts

years and years of practice...then teaching what they know to others...then having them practice and teach it to others...
if you where to self teach anything about the force it would be simply on emotions and you would have no control...jedi learned it from generations of eachother teaching and sharing what they know

I agree with Hoorex. I have made a total-blaster model in KOTOR before, and gotten the best guns when I fought Malak. Even then, he could only deflect about a half of them! And he was a Dark Lord, for Force sake! A Padawan could only block a single blaster bolt from a single target ONLY if hes trained.... people make it seem like its a breeze.
I admit I have been guilty of that before, but I'm trying to fix it... Anyway, thats what I say about the matter! Hear me, people of Earth or whatever!
Also, fighting criminals for your life does NOT make you a master of Shien form! You need training from someone experienced to be good at something, especially something so hard as deflecting a blaster bolt. You can only get so good from self-training.

Do you remember Zett Zusuka? The young padawan that held his one against REPUBLIC CLONE TROOPERS protecting Senator Organa? He was about 12. I don't see anything wrong with it.
