A very difficult match.

This Duel mode game takes place in a carbon chamber, a facility used to freeze individuals in carbonite. The process of carbon freezing involves encasing a person or object in a solid block of carbonite, effectively preserving them in suspended animation. Carbon freezing was used in the Star Wars universe for various purposes, such as transporting prisoners or valuable items (notably the highly sought tibanna gas) safely. It allowed them to be preserved and protected until they reached their destination.

The main problem with this map is its relatively small size: it's very difficult to get out of range of a rival equipped with a lightsaber, and the narrowness of the area quickly becomes a problem when trying to escape from melee combat. While there are ledges and promontories to perch on for a little respite, these are sometimes not enough, especially when the opponent is a saber-throwing aficionado. In such cases, the game becomes a relentless game of cat-and-mouse across the arena, praying that one of your shots will hit the mark.

Fortunately, the Wookie crossbow's secondary fire allows you to take advantage of bouncing shots, so you can eliminate the opposing fighter by shooting at nearby walls. This is a highly effective tactic in confined spaces, particularly in the trench running all the way around the room.

It's not a miraculous strategy, however, and will rarely prove successful if the opponent in question makes intensive use of the power of Persuasion, as in the case of the Bespin officer or Luke. Besides, Luke is a monster who can rip you to shreds in seconds; this guy's no joke... !
