His crossguard blade is also longer than the standard which is 1 meter the crossguard is 1.5 meters long. It's like a dual phase. It could also be heavy because of excess energy coming from one end being circumvented by 2 small emitters.
@@baki484 His emitters are also tuned for different length in different modes: his dual wielding has one small and one normal blade, but when he switches to double blade they both are standard length.

Crossguard lightsabers would be functionally better if the cross guard was made of a lightsaber resistant material instead of plasma. That way it can protect the user's hand without endangering further hence defeating its purpose Edit: *sigh*… yes like beskar. You don’t need to mention it
You make a lot of sense. Similar to like a great sword, maybe they could use Beskar guards since cross guards are as uncommon as beskar. Obviously, as shown in The Mandalorian, beskar is lightsaber resistant. Now we need to get a character using this.
@@caseyynelmss tbh my dream lightsaber design would be a double bladed lightsaber with cross guard on one side. I’d use it like a Zweihänder in duels or very close quarters and double bladed when outnumbered
One variant wasn't mentioned: the Long-handle Lightsaber. Meant to resemble long-handle swords like the nagamaki, pudao, and the swordstaff of different ancient cultures, this lightsaber variant provides more leverage and handling than standards lightsaber. It can be used both as a sword and staff during combat. Darth Chratis, Darth Nihl, and Zao are among those who have used this variant. Hell, I have mine in a yellow blade made by Ultrasabers and brought it to a ComiCon in Indy earlier this year, and I love it! The people at Ultrasabers were there and were kind enough to upgrade my baby with newer parts!
@@wintertrooper7918 Negative. A lightsaber pike is a lightsaber with a long shaft, making it more like a glaive, naginata, or guandao. What I have has the blade and hilt of equally long lengths.
And now because of you I’ll be explaining to my wife why I just built two custom sabers and will be spending 2k. Luckily I chose heavy ultraedges so…we’ll probably end up battling it out
13:12 Well, if we’re going there I’d say my favorite lightsaber is the one from the Phineas & Ferb Star Wars episode where they heavily mod their lightsabers to an entertaining degree.
I've got two that you missed. The Death Star could be seen as a sort of over powered Lightsaber Rifle as it used Kyber crystals to power it's laser. And the "Contained Energy Axe" was a lightsaber axe.
Hmm. I’m not sure I’d consider that any sort of saber, so much as a Kyber-powered weapon, as it had no sword/sabre-like properties. Both of the rifles weren’t really variations of lightsabers either, so much as they employed or utilized existing sabers as fuel/ammo/etc. They were systems into which lightsabers were placed.
I’m interested in hearing more about things such as vibroblades, in relation to how they differ & resemble a standard saber. Also, more about whips. This was interesting and at parts, funny. (That bit at the end with the Lego Maul octosaber!) Thank you
I think the coolest lightsaber variant is the light saber nunchaku, which was wielded by Ventress in the DLC for the classic Star Wars: Battlefront 2. However, I would choose the hinged double-bladed lightsaber like the Temple Guards.
light pike all day, historically, long pointy stick win, and being able to mod the shaft so you can utelize the shorter blade for CQC would be an added bonus
another cool thing about it would be the ability to use it as a blunt weapon with the blade turned off. it effectively becomes a quarterstaff and can be used in any situation that doesn't require lethality.
@@darthbane5357 It's beyond impractical, it's stupid. I mention it on my other channel in a video I did covering every single lightsaber type. th-cam.com/video/ekjo2yMGtKI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=MJ-Xt5UUSaXjOxer
Crossguard lightsabers were a mistake, unless the emitters are made of something lightsaber resistant. It doesn't accomplish the function of a crossguard. In all other lightsabers, the emitter is a weakness. You slash it, the blade goes out. Kylo Ren's actually makes sense. It's making up for other faulty characteristics. Other than that, it comes off too much as someone just thinking it would look cool.
@@joshuarobinson6011 Most? When else are there crossguard lightsabers? Only other time I remember seeing a bunch was High Republic stuff when there were way too many for “faulty crystals” to make sense.
The telescoping lightsaber pike from the Knights of the Eternal Throne trailer is the variant that I'd love to see brought into canon. It can be used as a normal lightsaber, or you can extend the handle for extra reach.
I'd want my saber on my arms, extending past my hand, like the doomsayers built in knife. You could be aggressive defensive and use piercing moves like dooku. I'd love to see a starwars charicter use it, I've always invisioned myself using a saber that way.
Google up the foundation's blade from fortnite it's the closest that I've ever seen to my child imagination of my sabers, I'd wield both arms, maybe with some mando' tech pure fucken chaos.
I would use a double bladed lightsaber, with the bottom saber being a dual-phase shoto. It'd mainly be used single-bladed as a standard saber with a somewhat longer hilt as to keep the second hidden. The shoto would detach and as to be used as two separate sabers. Only reason I got this idea is due to a Darth Vader toy from when I was kid that featured a huge hilt with a small dagger like saber that could be removed or added to the bottom.
Ezra should have kept the hybrid blaster-saber. Yes, he had grown as a Jedi and didn’t need the extra trick to keep up, but he was also not in a position where he should be turning down any advantage. Also, it lets him stun people, which frankly is a rare option for lightsabers to have.
Lightsabers which stun are actually used during training, according to several sources. Some say that they used a special type of crystal which changed the damage of the saber, some were made differently (closer to a stun baton, like the kind used by the tr8tor guy in the Force Awakens) They don't seem to be used by Jedi much outside of training Padawans, though it seems like a no-brainer for an order supposedly dedicated to maintaining peace and avoiding violence when possible I assume making the lightsaber non-lethal severely limits it's application as a tool in many scenarios (i.e. cutting through various substances)
I fr loved the tonfa ligtsaber bc of how the design looked...then next is the dark saber. But I mean the other sabers are just insane and I never knew there was a lot of different designed lightsabers.
My favorite saber is definitely the crossguard, it’s just really cool, especially an unstable one like Kylo Rens. The sequels may be really bad but Rens saber was always so cool
I have three things to say about this video. 1. You forgot to mention that in the Legends timeline, Luke Skywalker used a Shoto saber to counter lumia's lightwhip. 2. That parasol lightsaber and lightsaber gauntlet looks awesome. I wish they made a toy of those. 3. Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi must have had waterproof lightsabers in Episode 1, seeing how they were able to go swimming on the way to the Gungan city and use them later to fight battle droids. Also, Luke must have waterproofed his lightsaber prior to Episode 5.
So i kinda have an idea for a lightsaber. Similar to ezras and some inquisitors, it would have a hand guard like a regular saber, but instead of it being metal, it would have an electric current that could block other lightsabers and could be used as a stunning attack I also love the idea that a jedi or sith could replace a missing arm with a lighsaber. It wouldn't be good at blocking blasters, but it would be a suprise to anyone fighting them up close. Like an assassin but star wars.
Unpopular opinion I love the Inquisitors lightsabers there just so cool looking intimidating and versatile. Its easily could be the best saber in star wars the inquisitors are just under trained and there made to be weaker then Vader and Sidious so they dont pose a threat. If a Fully trained Sith or Jedi wielded one of those bad boys ow it would be over for nearly any enemy that crossed their path
Wouldn't a light-pike using a magma kyber crystal retain all the advantages and minimal disadvantages? Greater reach Dangerous blade that spits lava is now near your enemy and not you Still heavier and slower Minimize the danger by using beskar for important parts of the hilt this is the weapon I'd want for a a duel I'd probably want a dual-phased saber with a longer beskar hilt to allow for more varied combat in general.
For all the Protosabers with cables, why don't they just run it along your arm? that way you don't have a giant tangley mess that disables your lightsaber when cut.
I feel like cal kestus’s lightsaber should’ve been an honorary mention. I could change forms into single, staff, dual and cross gaurd. I don’t think any other lightsabers have EVER done that before.
I would personally use a double-bladed lightsaber but rarely ever use the second blade; meaning I could have the benefits of the longer hilt and keep a hidden blade to surprise unsuspecting enemies
The Death Stars, Star Destroyers on the Exagol and Star Killer Base can also be seen as lightsabers. after all, they too are powered by Kyber Crystals.
Id do the Inquisitors lightsaber. Its so versatile but Inquisitors ngl are just undertrained if a full sith or jedi was trained to use it boy they would be a menace to fight.
I like the idea that all lightsabers have actual blades, like the dark saber, but the plasma glow is so much brighter that you cannot usually see the blade edge. This helps explain why, in the movies and such, some things would get hit by a light saber and not actually get cut, but still take some heat damage
If I was able to make my own kind of saber, I would have it be two lightsaber gauntlets, and see if I could combine it with either the hinged double-bladed lightsaber, the double-bladed spinning lightsaber, or maybe some combination of all three
I'll admit, with all of the deep cut references in the game I was kinda sad lego star wars the skywalker saga didn't let you play as jocasta nu with the lightsaber rifle.
There are so many lightsaber variants to choose from, but my favorites are the Dual Phase Lightsaber, Split Saber, the Standard Lightsaber, the Lightsaber-Blaster Hybrid, and the Saber Cane, but if i had to choose only one, it would be the Split Saber. I would be a Jedi wielding the Split Saber in combat against my enemies
Lego Darth Maul's...was that somebody's idea of an April Fool's Day prank? That's HILARIOUS. I had never seen that before so I almost spit my coffee all over the screen here.
For all-round use? Tonfa: same as a regular lightsaber but it has an extra grip so it can be used to apply unexpected pressure during a sabre lock For my personal use? Saberclub: I’m a big guy and a 3 meter long, weightless blade (or weighted depending on cannon, EU or legends) is amazing, make long reach even longer! What looks coolest? Curved handle or Lightwhip: curved handle is used by Asaaj Ventress and Count Dooku, AKA darth tyrannus AKA Christopher mf Lee. Lightwhips can only be used by the best and when used correctly would be both pretty and dangerous. Like a goth girl that likes hello kitty
Hard choice given their are multiple interesting ones but i think double bladed that can be split into two offers the most versatile option so csn use a double bladed, two sabers or a single one I also think should do a video on none saber melee weapons
If I had to choose a lightsaber I think I would want a Zweihandler styled cross guard saber in either black or white. Meaning a triple handed length handle with a blade between 5 and 5 and a half foot long similar to my family sword. We’re Poles and have a claymore styled great sword that was passed down our family line until it ended up in my father’s hands and finally me. It’s seen warlike and decorative purposes. It was even involved in the resistance of the nazis and survived the Warsaw insurrection. I think I would be trying to pay homage to it.
Personally, I would wield a Split Saber, two sabers that can join together into a dbl-bladed lightsaber, and it would be blue, ergo, I would be a Jedi. Other designs I like are the standard, the hinged dbl-bladed, the blaster-saber hybrid, the tonfa saber, the shoto saber, the spinning saber, and the saber gauntlet
Considering how effective spears and pikes are in our world, I think the lightsaber pike is the best solution to adopt in combat against another jedi or sith, although it is much less useful against blasters, given the displacement of the light blade compared to a normal lightsaber. Regarding Kylo Ren's "claymore" laser, it would make sense if the guard was made of cortasis or beskar, in order to use the guard as a true defense.
Well. My main jedi in swtor uses a lightsaber hilt that has holes in it similar to heated exhaust tubes has yellowish orange crystal that looks exactly like a lava blade and also the incinerator tunning which makes the hilt look like it’s super heated at the emitter section and the blade looks like it produces a lot of heat. So out of all these I guess I’d use a lava crystal even though my jedi is light side. I rotate between that and a white cross guard lightsaber
I always find myself falling in the gray Jedi zone. As such I would chose a Duel-Phase Light Saber, with a Terresta (dark core) orange Crystal modified with a red Bifurcating Cyclical-Ignition Pulse Lightsaber.
id choose the lightsaber pike or umbrella but if i could make my own it would be a trident design with the side blade being large vents that can spun like a shield O and an adjustable length hilt
I have an idea for a better blaster-saber. A bayonet hand canon: get two kyber crystals, one for a shoto-saber bayonet, and the other for a kyber blaster. The hilt can adjust between straight or curved (though to do it mid combat would require special designs)
If the Blade doesn't add any weight when activated... I'd use Twin Broadsabers (I just wanna Dual-wield Claymores) with the connection like the Splitsabers (Have only 1 end active while connected for a longer grip, or disconnect them to trick opponents), and have them use either Ghostfire Crystals or Krayt Dragon Pearls for their thematic effects.
I would use a double-bladed lightsaber, hinged double-bladed lightsaber, and/or a splitsaber. They would be ideal for the completely new form I’d create, which involves using The Force to rapidly spin the blades in front of you as a shield and also using acrobatics. Overall the form would be primarily a more defensive form, but at times, used highly aggressively during offensive manuvers
I'd personally go for a saber-pike/shoto blade combination. I can hold the smaller blade while I'm using the pike and use it to defend if someone closes the gap.
Id have 2 tri bladed tonfa light sabers with a short curved hilt (not the one u hold it by but the one going up the back of your arm) make it out of beskar or something with a lava crystal
I'd have a regular and a gauntlet on my left arm with interchangeable parts. Stun blaster like Ezra's, duo shoto (the art showed duuo regular), something like the parasol to have it spin to be a shield (or just a beskar shield), and a whip on low intensity to not be harmful. Only the emitter is what's being swapped out so each attachment doesn't need a crystal. You could carry the attachments on your belt or something. And the beskar shield could collapse and open up so ppl don't know what it is. S&S is always a good technique
I'd make a variant saber where the blades took on a halbert shape with an axe head on one side, a pike on the other and a spear tip. The handle being a long foldable handle for easy storage. With shoto function to be able to adjust the size of the axe blade and the length of the pike and spear tips. And, water proof.
I would choose to wield a lava crystal broadsaber, and I would probably be a sith. Being able to use a fiery laser broadsword as the coolest and most badass faction in Star Wars, like seriously, why would I choose anything else?
I do believe Luke also had an adjustable blade at some point. In a Legends story, when he was trying to get into or exit an area, he had set his Lightsaber to make a shorter, less noticeable blade to open a gate or door. It's been a long time, so I can't remember the exact story beats.
All these lightsaber types and even learning about the prototype fotm of lightsabers was immensely intriguing as heck~! A curious question? Is possible for a lightsaber's blade to change form via a mechanism on the handle from a sword to a whip version? Or was there something else required to achieve such an effect? 🤔🤔🤔
Yes, in the high republic There is a Jedi, who wields a purple bladed light saber that is able to turn from light saber to light whip by twisting a ring on the hilt
@@naseemweathers8358 Ooh~. That's actually wicked as heck! If I'm to guess how that works, it most likely alters the saber's solidity. Loosing just enough to give it that noodle limp-like form. And I heard that lightsaber blades can be adjusted in length and such. Awesome information nonetheless, thx very much~. 😙👍

All of these lightsabers are so cool AM so excited to see more New lightsaber types in future of star wars
only if disney will give up star wars to lucasfilm again 🤷♂️
If I was able to make my own kind of saber, I would have it be two lightsaber gauntlets, and see if I could combine it with either the hinged double-bladed lightsaber, the double-bladed spinning lightsaber, or maybe some combination of all three
I would wield a crossguard for sure. I just love its cool look.
So you want to cut off your hand in a fight
@@wintertrooper7918 😂
I kind of think the standard lightsabers strength is in it's elegant simplicity, anything more only makes it gimmicky.
I'm curious, what about the force saber made it require use of the dark side? I love the thought of a light foil and force saber combo
I'll admit, with all of the deep cut references in the game I was kinda sad lego star wars the skywalker saga didn't let you play as jocasta nu with the lightsaber rifle.
There are so many lightsaber variants to choose from, but my favorites are the Dual Phase Lightsaber, Split Saber, the Standard Lightsaber, the Lightsaber-Blaster Hybrid, and the Saber Cane, but if i had to choose only one, it would be the Split Saber. I would be a Jedi wielding the Split Saber in combat against my enemies
Lego Darth Maul's...was that somebody's idea of an April Fool's Day prank? That's HILARIOUS. I had never seen that before so I almost spit my coffee all over the screen here.
For all-round use? Tonfa: same as a regular lightsaber but it has an extra grip so it can be used to apply unexpected pressure during a sabre lock
For my personal use? Saberclub: I’m a big guy and a 3 meter long, weightless blade (or weighted depending on cannon, EU or legends) is amazing, make long reach even longer!
What looks coolest? Curved handle or Lightwhip: curved handle is used by Asaaj Ventress and Count Dooku, AKA darth tyrannus AKA Christopher mf Lee. Lightwhips can only be used by the best and when used correctly would be both pretty and dangerous. Like a goth girl that likes hello kitty
10:40 pull up with the Lightbrella
i was expecting a lightsaber bayonet attached to a laser musket rifle
No matter what whacky designs are added in the future, the dual-blade lightsaber will always be hands down the coolest.
I would dual wield with a curved hilt lightsaber with a lava crystal in my left with a green broadsaber in my right.
Hard choice given their are multiple interesting ones but i think double bladed that can be split into two offers the most versatile option so csn use a double bladed, two sabers or a single one
I also think should do a video on none saber melee weapons
Never got into Star Wars but always been obsessed with light sabre
I’m sure yoda “hated” it 😂😂 considering his wise words of “fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to sufferingggg” 🤔
I just realized that maul’s saber staff is exactly like the training lightsabers 3:53 2:44
Love your videos
There were tons of cool ones, like the whip and sickle, but the gauntlet was definitely the coolest
If I had to choose a lightsaber I think I would want a Zweihandler styled cross guard saber in either black or white. Meaning a triple handed length handle with a blade between 5 and 5 and a half foot long similar to my family sword. We’re Poles and have a claymore styled great sword that was passed down our family line until it ended up in my father’s hands and finally me. It’s seen warlike and decorative purposes. It was even involved in the resistance of the nazis and survived the Warsaw insurrection. I think I would be trying to pay homage to it.
I would wield curved, flicker phase split sabers. One purple, one orange.
What about the ice Saber
The pyke and shoto will be a really good duo
Lowkey the split saber seems like the one for me
Thank you so much for this!!!
Would love too see more green an purple in the future, i also didnt know there was orange lightsabers so that was cool
Personally, I would wield a Split Saber, two sabers that can join together into a dbl-bladed lightsaber, and it would be blue, ergo, I would be a Jedi.
Other designs I like are the standard, the hinged dbl-bladed, the blaster-saber hybrid, the tonfa saber, the shoto saber, the spinning saber, and the saber gauntlet
Considering how effective spears and pikes are in our world, I think the lightsaber pike is the best solution to adopt in combat against another jedi or sith, although it is much less useful against blasters, given the displacement of the light blade compared to a normal lightsaber.
Regarding Kylo Ren's "claymore" laser, it would make sense if the guard was made of cortasis or beskar, in order to use the guard as a true defense.
Well. My main jedi in swtor uses a lightsaber hilt that has holes in it similar to heated exhaust tubes has yellowish orange crystal that looks exactly like a lava blade and also the incinerator tunning which makes the hilt look like it’s super heated at the emitter section and the blade looks like it produces a lot of heat. So out of all these I guess I’d use a lava crystal even though my jedi is light side. I rotate between that and a white cross guard lightsaber
I always find myself falling in the gray Jedi zone. As such I would chose a Duel-Phase Light Saber, with a Terresta (dark core) orange Crystal modified with a red Bifurcating Cyclical-Ignition Pulse Lightsaber.
id choose the lightsaber pike or umbrella but if i could make my own it would be a trident design with the side blade being large vents that can spun like a shield O and an adjustable length hilt
This seems really smart! Like a lightsaber with a hero's engine gaurd
If i could merge all of these lightsabers into one id be pretty happy
I have an idea for a better blaster-saber. A bayonet hand canon: get two kyber crystals, one for a shoto-saber bayonet, and the other for a kyber blaster. The hilt can adjust between straight or curved (though to do it mid combat would require special designs)
The Double Bladed Light Saber! That would definitely be my Light Saber of choice!
I hope at some point they do another blaster hybrid saber in the style of the Gunblade from Final Fantasy.
If the Blade doesn't add any weight when activated... I'd use Twin Broadsabers (I just wanna Dual-wield Claymores) with the connection like the Splitsabers (Have only 1 end active while connected for a longer grip, or disconnect them to trick opponents), and have them use either Ghostfire Crystals or Krayt Dragon Pearls for their thematic effects.
I would use a double-bladed lightsaber, hinged double-bladed lightsaber, and/or a splitsaber. They would be ideal for the completely new form I’d create, which involves using The Force to rapidly spin the blades in front of you as a shield and also using acrobatics. Overall the form would be primarily a more defensive form, but at times, used highly aggressively during offensive manuvers
You got my vote immediately when you called it Anakins saber, and not Luke's!
I'd personally go for a saber-pike/shoto blade combination. I can hold the smaller blade while I'm using the pike and use it to defend if someone closes the gap.
Id have 2 tri bladed tonfa light sabers with a short curved hilt (not the one u hold it by but the one going up the back of your arm) make it out of beskar or something with a lava crystal
I'd have a regular and a gauntlet on my left arm with interchangeable parts. Stun blaster like Ezra's, duo shoto (the art showed duuo regular), something like the parasol to have it spin to be a shield (or just a beskar shield), and a whip on low intensity to not be harmful. Only the emitter is what's being swapped out so each attachment doesn't need a crystal. You could carry the attachments on your belt or something. And the beskar shield could collapse and open up so ppl don't know what it is. S&S is always a good technique
I’ve always loved the force pike, for some reason
Curved Hilt Sabers are my favorite! They are jus slick!
The lava lightsaber would be so awesome yet dangerous to wield
I'd make a variant saber where the blades took on a halbert shape with an axe head on one side, a pike on the other and a spear tip. The handle being a long foldable handle for easy storage. With shoto function to be able to adjust the size of the axe blade and the length of the pike and spear tips. And, water proof.
I would choose to wield a lava crystal broadsaber, and I would probably be a sith. Being able to use a fiery laser broadsword as the coolest and most badass faction in Star Wars, like seriously, why would I choose anything else?
Cross guard like Kylo Ren
I do believe Luke also had an adjustable blade at some point. In a Legends story, when he was trying to get into or exit an area, he had set his Lightsaber to make a shorter, less noticeable blade to open a gate or door. It's been a long time, so I can't remember the exact story beats.
All these lightsaber types and even learning about the prototype fotm of lightsabers was immensely intriguing as heck~!
A curious question?
Is possible for a lightsaber's blade to change form via a mechanism on the handle from a sword to a whip version?
Or was there something else required to achieve such an effect?
🤔🤔🤔
Yes, in the high republic
There is a Jedi, who wields a purple bladed light saber that is able to turn from light saber to light whip by twisting a ring on the hilt
@@naseemweathers8358 Ooh~.
That's actually wicked as heck!
If I'm to guess how that works, it most likely alters the saber's solidity.
Loosing just enough to give it that noodle limp-like form.
And I heard that lightsaber blades can be adjusted in length and such.
Awesome information nonetheless, thx very much~.
😙👍
I would kill for this to be a series. A lightsaber academy like cobra kai or something
