You have to realize that the age of the Jedi was on brink of extinction over and over again thus those having the lack of training and experience to fight like they did before if you pay attention throughout all the films beside Vader and fallen Jedi in Canon it was a dead art, that's why in the war council of New Hope Imperial officers called it a dead religion and Vader was the only remnant of that remain

[@venetianjack1348]

@@pumpkinkingca2010 I understand the lack of fight choreography in the OT given that lightsaber fighting was a lost art, however ST doesn’t get that leeway. Luke studied for years after the OT, he had students, a school, he was training Leia. He knew of the other forms. Ben Solo would have know something lore than swing and stab.

[@therookie7401]

The armor he has on is Cortossis. It's not even a debate because Cortossis can actually short lightsabers out for a bit, which we do see here. And actually is a close contender to Beskar in terms of its protection. Like if a lightsaber is powerful enough and doesn't short out it immediately could cut through Cortossis. It's just that like I said Cortossis is pretty damn tough and a close contender to Beskar. Additional fact the Electrostaffs used by Magnaguards are actually plated with Phrik. Which is rare and tough and resistant to Lightsabers. Keyword is resistant as eventually it will wear away and can be cut by lightsabers.

[@dahakaguardianofthetimelin4780]

It is literally explained in The Last Jedi that the Force strives for a balance between the Light and the Dark Side. If there are 5000 users of the Light Side and only 1 user of the Dark, that one user will be 5000 times stronger than each individual Light Side user. That being said, when the Dark Side user becomes dominant, the Force strives for a counterbalance in an exceptionally skilled Light Side user. Because Jedi act as an order, whereas the Sith operate only as a pair, the Force significantly favors the pair more because the Force strives for a perfect balance. It's one of the more interesting ideas of TLJ entirely thrown away in ROS

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

@@dahakaguardianofthetimelin4780 That kind of makes the force a tad… Scary. You’re basically saying, by this stated logic, that _The Force Itself_ wants a forever war between good and evil, and it will actively empower the weaker side to achieve its desired “Balance”, even at the cost of ruining countless lives. It’s basically like Kronika’s idea of a “Perfect” timeline in Mortal Kombat where Good and Evil are literally even in power and are locked into eternal conflict. But I guess that’s why the franchise is called _”Star _*_WARS”,_* isn’t it?

[@dahakaguardianofthetimelin4780]

@@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire The Force isn't good or evil. The Force just IS. That's kind of the point

[@TheMateria7]

⁠@@dahakaguardianofthetimelin4780 That’s incorrect. George Lucas explained that balance of the Force means eliminating the darkside. He stated that the Sith or Darksider users needed to die in order for the Force to be balanced because only the light side is balance. He said that the Dark Side is a cancer on the Force. That’s why the Prophecy refers to the Chosen One (Anakin) destroying the Sith and restoring Balance to the Force. In 2010, George Lucas said that true balance is light side harmony and eliminating the Dark Side forever. So what you said is wrong. The Force cannot be balanced if the Dark Side exists. I don’t know why fans failed to understand what balance of the Force means when George Lucas explained it a hundred times. You can google his quotes on it.

The Anakin vs Count Dooku fight in the Prequels was the weakest Prequels fight. It was largely extreme closeups of Anakin's and Dooku's faces while we see the light from their lightsabers but we can't see them swinging them.

[@user-ku7jn6fc6g]

Yeah, that was my main criticism of the lightsaber choreography of Nick Gillard in the Prequels. He focused TOO MUCH on the lightsabers and not enough on the wielders. A lot of Prequels battles look like they're aiming for each other's sabers instead of trying to hit their opponent. Thid battle took the best of the Prequels era fights and combined it with the weightiness and deliberate nature of Originals and Sequels fights. The Originals and Sequels fights made them feel like they're actually aiming for their opponent, but also made the lightsabers seem too heavy and clunky. Like they're wielding a heavy-ass Claymore or something. I think this fight and the Ahsoka fights in my opinion are the best mix. The agility and athleticism mixed with actually going for your opponent instead of showing off how deftly you can spin your sword.

Plaugeis's master was a Bith named Darth Tenebrous. Maybe Qimir was his master.

[@kaushikhegde8227]

Legends and Canon are different. Maybe Qimir is Tenebrous, who knows

[@swrodgon]

All depends on how far back the show is set, since the answer ranges from a vague hundred to more than. Teneborous and Plageus were from fairly long lived species, so where Qimir fits in who knows. Alternatively Qimir could be pulling a non-canon move and searching for an apprentice while he himself is apprenticed, which has precedent in legends anyways. Or of course, he could just be from some dark offshoot force sect that could’ve existed who knows where/when; after all, dathomirians are apparently extra-galactic now, so who the hell knows.

[@Hemskelol]

Why is a little girl Padawan holding her own against a Sith Lord that wiped the floor with several knights? Absolutely ridiculous. Disney sucks.

[@Jtry_]

Obi wan and Ahsoka held their own against Maul. The child held her own when the other knights died in like 5 seconds, which can be attributed to the fact that she is highly skilled and gifted and had the potential to be a powerful force user. She had the unfortunate circumstance of having to fight a seasoned dark force user which she has absolutely no experience with and was obviously outlasted. It sucks she never got to reach to her full potential. Jecki is one of the few characters I’ve enjoyed so far especially with how lame the show has been so far.

[@Hemskelol]

@@Jtry_ no they didn't, Obi-Wan got severely owned by Maul, he won because Maul gloated. He was also knighted afterwards since he was fully trained. Ahsoka was essentially already a knight and trained by The Chosen One. Are you even human or just another Disney bot? Keep huffing that copium buddy 🤣

Yeah, that would be like if they made Vader be able to outpilot professional racers as a mere child... or imagine if Luke was just able to shoot down the death star after only training by shooting rats with a blaster as a kid.

Disney simps. Look closely and you'll see most of this is just swinging in the air. The Jedi aren't even trying to hit him or his saber. Like they're swinging over each other's heads.

[@CountKibblesNBits]

Ok, so he has a Cortosis helmet. Sword and dagger style combat (which I wished he used more of) i like that. The end fights were decent, liked the amount of strikes and grabs throughout. Choreography was meh, especially on the beginning when dealing with the cannon fodder Jedi. Camera angle didn't give a good sense of the area and where everyone was felt more like a narrow stage than a fairly large area. Really didn't like that he just ran into the middle of the fodder with jedi both in front and behind him. Would rather have more high angles shots to get a sense of the area while he tries to avoid being surrounded and flanked, slowly whittling down the jedi.
