>two blades means he can fight two people at once!

That's fucking retarded. One of the Jedi should have been able to lop his head off from behind within the first 10 seconds.

>>7972

One thing you have to remember is that Jedi are only supposed to kill as a last resort- it' should never be their initial response, and I'm guessing this extends as far as Sith. They would have sooner disarmed Maul, or crippled him so as to end the fight.

Yoda threw a lightsaber into a random clone trooper's chest, then jumped on him to pull it out.

The random clone trooper wasnt going to invite him for evening caf, spacer

Prequels for all their love of lightsaber fights, don't give much logistic thought to them. Grievous had four lightsabers being swung at speeds only machines can reach yet Obi-Wan was still able to beat him single handedly. And don't give me the bullshit answer "he knew a defensive saber form" I don't care how good your defense it, if you have four swords coming at your one sword from four different directions you're going to get fucked up.

Clones, being creatures with diminished autonomy, aren't likely to be reasoned with.

Jedi are hesitant to take life, that doesn't mean they won't.

>Implying it wasn't implied by the Jedi themselves that they were very arrogant of their abilities and would shit themselves if they encountered a real Sith like they did when they encountered Darth Maul.

>>7987

it isn't just his form

jedi use the force to anticipate where their opponents will strike next, i'm just hoping that this is still canon, because it makes a fuckload of sense for a lot of things.


 No.8004

>>8001

It is still canon. The true canon, not this newfangled "i hate the prequels" JJ-Didney shit that theyre flinging

c'mon anon i thought we were all autists here

He aint wrong tho, Troopers were given little autonomy over independent thought, they were essentially organic droids, to an extent.

Thats why they didnt hesitate to execute Order 66, or why they never mutinied even though they were a slave army, etc


 No.8013

>>8006

I didn't say without autonomy, but diminished autonomy. They're not robots, but their ability to choose for themselves is largely restricted in comparison with a normal sentient.


 No.8016

>>8001

still, thats four blades spinning at an almost unimaginably fast pace. The fight should have been obi wan staying out of his range, even if you know where each blade is going to end up you still can't block everything

It's space magic, I ain't gotta explain shit
