subconsciously Dooku didn’t want to kill Obi-Wan, I think he was stalling for time when attempting to execute Obi-Wan, knowing that Anakin would try to save him. Reason he only injured Kenobi in the first place. He never could bring himself to kill him. That’s also the reason why Palpatine told Anakin to kill him, because in their second duel Dooku was supposed to kill Kenobi but didn’t. Sidious saw that as a weakness and a direct sign of disobedience

i think it's interesting to note that after Dooku manages to win against Anakin, he breathes a sort of exhausted sigh as if the fight was more than Dooku expected. not necessarily more than Dooku was capable, but still a lot more than he thought he was gonna deal with. I think another reason why it was so effective on Dooku in this specific circumstance was more about him fighting a younger, more vigorous and aggressive opponent like Anakin, AND the fact that he was expecting to fight Anakin with 1 blade, and this instant development with little time to react "upset' his rhythm. Dooku is a very methodical and deliberate person. he likes to plan ahead, and doesn't like being surprised, and is always prepared for them. he would think that a young Anakin who just saw his Master get beaten, would fall back on fundamentals of fighting. sticking to standard strengths. but instead, exactly like you said, Anakin not only now has 2 lightsabers, but Anakin at this point already has his very aggressive mentality regarding combat, (which in other videos you've explained had put many jedi masters in awe, but also unease) and it was not something Dooku was expecting, least of all from a padawan.

That isn’t to say others didn’t practice it, just that they had the most frequent encounters with sith and other saber wielders (grievous and the dark saber) so it makes sense that they’d be more prepared and experienced to use it.

From Wookieepedia: "The Jar'Kai style developed by the Yovshin Swordsmen was named for a city on Atrisia. The city of Jar'Kai was also the site where the original Jar'Kai dueling sabers were crafted. These weapons were utilized by the Yovshin and were designed for the express purpose of being dual-wielded. Niman, the dual-blade style developed by the Royale Macheteros of the Kashi Mer, was named for the dual triumvirate of the Kashi deities. The style was adopted by the Legions of Lettow, a group of Dark Siders responsible for the First Great Schism of the Jedi Order. After the defeat of the Legion at the hands of the Jedi, Niman was adopted by the Jedi order, eventually being refined into the sixth form of lightsaber combat, referred to by the same name.[2] It should be noted that there were Jedi who engaged in dual-blade combat prior to the adoption of Niman by the Order, an example being Awdrysta Pina, who wielded a pair of Jedi katanas in battle. Many Jedi Knights and Sith Lords trained to use Form VI in the hopes of gaining a basic knowledge of the dual-bladed combat, but very few ever achieved complete mastery of Niman. Both styles predated the invention and usage of lightsabers, but being designed to be practiced with swords, they were easily adapted."

@@jlaws8740 I don’t think a more balanced approach would have helped Anakin against Dooku. Dooku excels at picking apart defensive fighters but he had far more trouble beating offensive fighters. He could handle RoS Kenobi, who was probably the best defensive duellist in the order, without to much trouble. However he was noted as an equal to Windu, forced to flee by Yoda and disarmed (quite literally) by RoS Anakin. This makes sense given what we know about both form 2 and Dooku as a fighter. Form 2 has the precision and the subtlety to circumvent a defensive fighter but doesn’t keep up as well physically with more aggressive forms like 4,5 and 7. Also Dooku is noted to not have excellent stamina due to his advanced age. Against a defensive fighter he can take it slowly, waiting for the perfect opening as they are unlikely to break his guard. But against an aggressive fighter he has to match their level to sone extent so they don’t overwhelm his preferred slower pace. So going aggressive was probably the better call. Sorry for the long ass response, just wanted to get across all my thoughts.

One of the interesting things about a circle and Anakin is it the only two Jedi and Canon that would go from a green blade to a blue blade? This is usually the other way around going from a blue blade to a green blade as the force powers strengthen and they become more connected to the force. This could be a sign of both how Obi-Wan f***** up with Anakin and how Anakin prioritised more combat orientated training. Due to the night age of the war, they were in requiring more combat focused and less spiritual and mystical focused

Very Nice Vid TSW. I generally tend to nit pick your vids. lol. But you hit the nail on the head, and spared no detail. I love the novelization. Obi-Wan knew Jar kai would not win against Dooku, but it would give Anakin a momentary advantage, and it did as in the fight as Anakin slipped into Jar Kai, the ever master of Makashi realized he had lost the momentum and fell back till he could regain the momentum of the fight. Anakin i'm sure learned from Sindrallic, Yoda, Mace windu, and probably Plo Koon as well in lightsaber combat when they had the spare time. Anakin even learned from THE master of Soresu. In a what if scenario, I think Anakin though he favored Form V, if he had had patience, and become the pinnacle of the lightside, would of been a Lightsaber Master to the point that he would of revolutionized in many ways. In this scenario, the Jedi he would of taught would go on to become some of the most fierce, determined, and level headed Lightsaber Duelists the Order had even scene. Like the legends story of Mace Windu, who made a gank squad surrender by simply touching his hilt. I think Anakin, and those he taught would of never even needed to touch the hilt.

I think its because the dual fencing style throws off the balance of Dooku's Makashi form 2 fencing style and Anakin does force Dooku on his heel for quite a period like this. It's also not true that Anakin was only trained in a single blade he had been practicing Jar' kai for a while according to any novelizations. Following his mutilation, he would go on to master form 5 under the tutelage of Cin Drallig his missing arm and Vader's further mutilation would have him remember this form with disdain and regret but he had only used it against a far better duelist. Anakin also trained Ahsoka in the use of Jar' Kai so clearly there was a period where he did not feel this way.

When Revenge of the Sith came out a friend of mine that read a ton of Star Wars novels explained to me that Obi-Wan defeated Greivous because Obi-Wan was one of the greatest defensive light saber wielders around. He could parry attack after attack then make use of an opening to score a minor hit, then return to parrying. More recently, I listened to Master and Apprentice, and I remember the part about Obi-Wan's frustration that he wasn't being trained in more than the most basic movements and patterns. IIRC, it was explained to him that was because Qui Gon was trying to get Obi-Wan to master those basics more than anyone so he'd have a nearly perfect defensive ability. While I know that Dooku was nearly unbeatable in a one on one duel, when I consider all the points I do know, it seems weird that Obi-Wan lost so quickly. Even more so when I assume that Obi-Wan would have definitely spent more time training to fight other light saber wielders after his fight with Maul than he probably did when he was a Padawan and the Sith were presumed extinct.

Number one what choice did they have playing defense would only be a jester of surrender! So a block with one hand can allow Anakin to attack with the other! Maybe that will force Doku to focus more on defense and less on parry into disarming.

I think the real answer is that George said "you know what would look cool? Two lightsabers. Make it happen."

Curious. If anakin doesn’t like dual wielding why was he ok with Ashoka and Galen doing this? Helpful crutches for a learning padowan

Before watching: is it becuase dooku isn’t a threat to strike hard so he doesn’t need both hands to block dooku’s blows rather he’s better of being able to block in two places at once to have better defense?

obi-wan knew that Dooku would look at this move as pathetic and dissrespectful, thus leading the very much cocky and confident Dooku to basically teach Anakin a lesson, by toying with him, and proving to him that one blade is all you need. this tactic was what saved them, and gave Yoda enough time to come and save them.

I hate that in this fight and more so in the episode 3 duel, they introduce great concepts that they only use for a few seconds. Like when they jump on the pipes in episode 3. Seems like a great set piece and it only lasts like 4 seconds

"Hey, master, he has a curved lightsaber!" "That's cheating! You should have a second lightsaber!" "Genious, master! Form 2 is weak to multiple opponents, with two lightsabers I'm basically two people!"

Two hands on a handle is vastly superior to one hand on two. Your range of motion and speed of action is substantially affected. Dooku, however, was poking like a fencer- so he had a greater range. Had anakin used the second blade simply to parry (as an epee fencer might), he would have the same reach advantage with a new mechanical advantage. Of course, thats in real swordfights.

Anakin grabs blue lightsaber with left hand. Next scene, he has it on the right hand.

Maybe he should have pocketed the 2nd blade. Just incase he lost his. Good analysis brotha !

It's because of his talent with multiple saber forms that Anakin was compared to Master Windu with his lightsaber skills. Windu was (to my knowledge) the only living Jedi who'd truly mastered all of the forms making him an unrivaled force in duels. Virtually no other Jedi could compare, though Anakin came close.

Dooku fought Obi-wan, Anakin and then YODA. Shows how truly skilled Dooku is at dueling.

It worked... and might not have been desperation on Kenobi's part. Buying time to come up with another plan is still a plan in the moment. If Anakin had stayed with a single saber, it's still possible Duku would have toyed with him as well, as punishment to Kenobi (or bragging/gloating/toying with his prey, etc...) and Yoda would have arrived all the same...

I'm pretty sure that Ahsoka's main lightsaber form was Shien, and Anakin's use of Jar'kai was based on Ataru's variant of Jar'kai.

Obi-wan throwing Ani the Sabre was done during reshoots. It was not the original choreo we had. What we had was way cooler. But you’ll never get to see that.

yeah, I think throwing anakin a second lightsaber was an attempt to shake dooku. but anakin never used 2 blades, so it was not as efficient. it was for naught anyway, because dooku spotted the scare tactic right away. but he's wrong in it being pitiful because double weilding is a genuine form.

If Dooku considered this "disrespectful," that may be why he decided to take Anakin's hand, something he considered to be a disgrace for a Jedi
