2:33 I haven’t heard a lightsaber lock sound so raw and visceral before. That was awesome.

[@ImaginaryNate]

@@paolopesare3566I don’t believe we will never see him again; due to how popular he’s become with the fans, as well as Jecki’s fighting prowess (and even some fans taking a liking to Yord), I think all three could return in S2 as the plot uncovers Vernestra Rwoh’s relationship with these Jedi/Qimir. Considering Qimir used to be a Jedi, I think that’ll be explored in flashbacks and Sol/Jecki/Yord all have a good chance of returning in those (just like how they did flashbacks of Osha & Mae’s childhood).

[@Cmmdre977]

I think what makes the acolyte lightsaber fights feel special and intense is how deadly they feel. They’re extremely fast paced and it actually feels like they’re trying to kill each other, rather than just hit each others swords. Yet despite all that, they still have all the flourish that the prequels do. It also helps that the acolyte has re-established lightsabers as extremely deadly

[@nickm1242]

It's a nice balance but at 2:18, anyone who doesn't suck at sword(or lightsaber fighting) would easily be able to do Qimir when he does his silly back exposing jump twirl, but it's nice to only see it about once the entire fight when the prequels did it all the time(at least they were fast) and it seemed most other Disney duels involved the fighters trying to expose their backs as much as possible.

[@Cmmdre977]

@@nickm1242 true that, yeah there were a few moments during episode 5 that you could argue one of the Jedi surrounding qimir could’ve got him in the back but they’re easy to miss and overall the fights were really good

Everything about this statement makes it seem like you didn't watch carefully. There were SOOO many issues in the fight in episode 5. In fact, literally in opposition to your statement, there were several instances where they attacked the lightsaber and not the person. There were not AS many blunders in this last fight, but it still had issues.

A series of unfortunate events happened resulting in the 2 children created by the force taking on different paths in their life. The jedi in charge at that time was an inept by the book green female b**** who can't tell right from wrong. Kids created by the force grows up and decides to find out the truth how the whole coven of witches died and dish out revenge against the Jedis. In the end the bad kid becomes good and has her memory wiped and the good kid gets corrupted and became a sith apprentice...hmm 180 million budget to screw this up

Got give credit where credit is due. That was a badass fight scene

[@kissun.13]

Trying to clear up some confusion here: Qimir's biggest goal atm is to acquire an acolyte; one who can kill a Jedi without a weapon. Beating Sol by himself would defeat the purpose here; that deed would have to be done by either Mae or Osha. Sol: "I will destroy you if I must." Qimir: "Not if she gets you first." If anything, he might just be stalling for time until either of the twins can get to where they are. Qimir only stopped fighting because even if he couldn't overpower Sol, at least he could give him one last daring taunt to make him break the Jedi code, which is *attacking the opponent while they're unarmed* , therefore further bruising Sol's dignity and moral conscience in the process. That's why we don't see any hint of fear from Qimir whenever Sol had a very open chance to straight up kill him. Either way, it's the Stranger who will get his last laugh. That's how I see it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

The piece i disliked the most was, when Sol destroyed Qimirs lightsaber, whyd bro just give up? Wasnt he the one demanding his acolyte to kill a jedi with no weapon? (Same thing with him running from vernestra... "If so powerful you are.. why leave?") The theme was decent and on brand with the Sith, specifically palpatine, who mastered every lightsaber form, and made his sabers decked out with electrum to troll the jedi, but barely used them cause theyre a "jedi's weapon" - not a sith, or at least not the sith at the height of his reign / the height of the rule of 2 before he defeated the jedi. And then they just, sorta forgot about that..

That sigh has no name dude

[@FrozenKizz]

both actors are great and the light saber fights are awesome.

[@KennyG881]

Say what you will about the show, but the lightsaber fights are on par with the prequel fights. They were really well-done.

[@omarbaba9892]

Tbh I’d say they’re better, prequel duels are overrated and a lot of them don’t even look like fights

[@lenseofficial]

why are they swinging light sabers like base ball bats

[@Fear_the_Nog]

They aren't. They're swinging them like double-edged straight swords. Whereas the OT and Prequels swung them like katanas, and the fighting were a mix of fencing and Japanese Kendo. This show's style is fencing combined with Wushu. You're seeing that fighting style. Want actual base ball bat swinging? Go watch the Sequel Trilogy.

[@notabannedaccount8362]

Masterpiece! Star Wars is in good hands.

[@yoshidinono8095]

lol

[@masetheimpailer]

Sol is the only jedi I've ever known to use Shi Cho reversion to this extent. It's really fun to watch in both fights!

[@garrynewby1442]

Honestly this show should of had quimir and master Sol as the main characters

[@user-oo9if5ud6r]

The show is awful but the fights are great. Show would be even better without the twins

[@justflex6745]

Gotta agree the twins weren’t that interesting as they wanted them to be.But I disagree with the review bombings tho

[@BlueLeprechaun15]

Yep yep. The fights are what kept me watching this

[@kyleburroughs1648]

Seriously the fight scenes were the show and the rest I could give two shits about, people chastised the lesbo creation of the twins but forget that Plag and Sid basically tried to do the same thing when the manipulated the force to create the one…. Also the show is entirely fiction so who cares what gender they are or who they affiliate with!

[@greg.anywhere]

It's possible that since Darth Plagueis appeared in the show, the twins were actually his experiment.

[@dafphtthedislikeupdater7836]

There's a rumor that the creators actually wanted a Sith succession story originally but Lucasfilm didn't agree to it because it wasn't mainstream enough

[@Glamaryllis]

The struggle I had with this show is: was it a great show? No. Was it as bad as so many of the fans have said? Also, no. I think it was just too condensed. The 8 episode format may have worked in the boardroom; but there was too much missing narrative content that could have been fleshed out with a longer series. The lightsaber fights though? Pure-class

[@a_fine_edition2746]

TOO CONDENSED? This show is laboriously long at times. If anything they needed to trim it the fuck down. That’d be a start to fixing it, but the missing narrative content could’ve more than fit into the runtime they gave us. Instead there’s loads of unimportant stuff tossed in where characters walk around accomplishing nothing.

[@TruthbtoldMD]

Props to Disney that they really nailed the FIlipino Sith lord if there was ever one.. A guy donning a motorcycle helmet in a rain coat looking as if he was about to ride his Suzuki Raider.. aka "the Kamote rider" look.

[@starkillerab1582]

How is Sol this Strong??? I thought the Jedi were extremely weak at lightsaber dueling Sith during this era look at the Khofar Strike team they got wrecked by Qimir and He Didn’t even break a sweat doing so

[@srmagicpanda9606]

There are always jedi that are more stronger than others, Just compars windu with the others 3 masters that fighed againts sidius. Sol is probably one of the strongest jedi masters in his time.

[@ClaudeTrouillotMartelly]

Its bad writing, you show how strong Qimir is in the begining and tired from fighting other Jedi's but in this one both at full power you show Qimir loosing. Althoug I agree its kind the like a tie between both depends on the day but still.

[@srmagicpanda9606]

@@ClaudeTrouillotMartellynah, thats not bad writing, well, tecnicly it is but not in the star wars saga, killing nameless jedi is something that every sith already done since the begining of star wars Nihilus, Vitiate, Sidius, Grievous... even savage opress killed 2 jedi in less than 30 seconds. The droids in génesis destroyed many jedi. Jango fet killed a máster jedi with a blaster etc etc etc

[@TheArcaneWiz]

The reason why most Jedi are not sword master's is because they live in an age where most opponents use blasters. Sol must be the few Jedi that keeps his skills up even though he does not face lightsaber opponents.

[@joelmanning249]

It depends on the Jedi per se. Most Jedi are pretty weak compared to Sith as they are not trained to kill merely subdue. Some Jedi are a lot more stronger however and can master combat but there’s not many of them to be sure.

[@dougclark9921]

3:00 wait! At the bottom of that sabre is the smaller blade, why through both on the floor?

[@anthonymorris4211]

Because Qimir knew Mae would kill Sol.

[@spottymaxy1628]

Imagine Kylo Ren Vs Luke with this choreography

[@Fraskino86]

riposa in pace, maestro Sol 🙏 🙏

[@typer2909]

okay the jedi kick was dope, thats all i got

[@Kadir-fw7xm]

Sol would have wiped the floor with them. Bros connection to the force is insane BUT the Plot Armor of course has to be uphold for those boring ass twins or whateverthefuck they supposed to be.

[@olufagosebambulagose]

I can't lie, this was pretty sick.

[@TOFKAS01]

Interesting that the coreography is giving the lightsabers some visible weight again. They are feeling like broadswords again like in the original trilogy.

[@rayjinflo]

I understand the weird saber lock might have had something to do with the special cortosis helmet and the way Sol held Qimir's forearm, but Qimir has an absolutely clear shot at Sol's face if he just turns out his wrist.

[@jamesdesau2301]

The only good thing about this show, the fights.

[@soda_qwer]

actually, we don't need osha..
