Official WHAT IF Duel Thread

Darth Acheron

I'll edit the title to include all WHAT IFs.

Yoda wouldn't be able to throw Anakin or throw anything at him, or if he could, Anakin would be able to throw/throw things at Yoda. Would kind of neutralise any advantage in that.

In a straight out lightsaber fight I think Anakin would win. Just because he's so much stronger and more athletic than Count Dooku, who was struggling against Yoda in that department.

I didn't say Count Dooku. I said Garen Marek...

Can't you make Marek a good guy like in KOTOR? I thought there was a light-side ending.

There is a light side ending, but you'll still be using force lightning and choke all the way to the end of the game. Kyle can exist without those powers.

I always wondered how the duel on the Invisible Hand would have went down if Anakin was knocked out cold and thrown aside and Kenobi took on Dooku. I know Palps would be pissed.

I say Dooku would have owned Kenobi just like in AOTC.

Seems like Kenobi was always surpassed by Dooku every time they duel. Dooku in each fight takes Kenobi down in such a short time. Yet we see Obi-Wan surpassing Dooku's skill when he faces Anakin on Mustafar.

I'm guessing its a rock-papers-scissors scenario, with Anakin's raw power defeating Dooku, Dooku's mastery of the Force and a certain lightsaber style defeating Kenobi, and Kenobi's knowledge of Anakin and mastery of a certain lightsaber style defeating Anakin.

Because Palpatine orchestrated it so that Obi would lose. Not the biggest amount, but it contributed to dooku's death. Plus Anakin, after falling, had just killed thousands of jedi. After that, someone's ego has to be huge. He probably overestimated himself(as evidenced by his jump that Obi told him not to do.)

Rive Caedo

Dooku also had overconfidence running against him. When you cut off somebody's arm - it tends to make you think you can beat them again.

That and remember in episode 21 of Clone Wars when Dooku slammed Anakin into that wall and only Ashoka saved his unconscious body from being a kabob on Dooku's lightsaber?*

*Note: May not have happened yet. What year is this? Wink
