- Skywalker and Kenobi face off against Dooku in one more epic confrontation towards the end of Clone Wars Season 6. How many more times has Anakin's power doubled now? Watch this 4K HDR Season 6 finale arc, "Yoda's Journey Film Cut" to find out.
A full 4K HDR (and 1080p) upscale of the entire series, also taking all but 9 episodes and re-cutting them seamlessly into feature films for every single arc. Have a favorite arc? Order 66? The Rako Hardeen Deception Arc? Mortis? The Nightsisters? Yoda's Journey? Maul's Revenge? This project converts the entire TV show into the definitive theatrical experience, perfect for your nice 4K HDR theater setup.
I have also reordered the episodes to fit a (mostly) chronological order based on the entire series official order list. This fixes many, many continuity problems for those who get confused when they watch it in viewing order. There are some minor alterations to the official episode order to make these arcs work as films, but any changes to the official chronological order are small (Putting Maul's Season 4 and 5 arcs into a single epic 3 hour cut, moving the lone episode "A Friend in Need" up a bit in the timeline to fit with the Heroes on Both Sides arc. Making Cad Bane's seasons 1-3 arc into a single supercut). The rest of the alterations follow the official continuity order (2 season 1 and 2 episodes are now part of the extended Clone Wars Theatrical Film Cut due to them being part of the Battle of Christophsis, ect. ect.) and greatly enhance the show's viewing experience.

Gotta love how Dooku owns this fight by keeping obi and Ani out of their comfort zones. He presses Anakin who's usually offensive and forces Obi wan to go on the offense
It's a good, thought out fight, Dooku knows he can't utterly dominate them like he did in his first duel, they've gotten too strong for that, so he pruposefully presses their weakness, doing basically what he did in RotS and keeping Obi Wan out of the fight as much as possible, since on his own, he's really not cut out for Dooku's style, but with Anakin, he's pretty much making the two of the invicible. Not only that but Obi Wan realises that out of him and Anakin, Anakin is a much better fit to fight Dooku, so he goes full support, including helping Anakin stay in the fight by pushing him onto the ship Dooku had escaped onto.
Wow after reading this and rewatching it you are so right. Thats great cinematic story telling
*when you make the enemies strength their weakness*
Repent for your sins and have faith in Jesus and you shall have eternal life in paradise
@@maiktendo6512 So like...will Jesus show me how to use the light side of the force or something? Whats that got to do with Star wars?
Dooku: admits the creation of the clones is integral part of overthrowing the jedi
Obi-wan: "You lie"
In fairness, Sith lie all the time. They are creatures of deceit, treachery and manipulation, so it is wise not to trust ANYTHING they say.
Kenobi cannot believe Syfo Dyas would help a Sith.
Qui Gon didn’t quite undo the prequel order’s influence on kenobi in the time he spent as his mentor. But he certainly made progress. Obi wan is only stuff when dealing with the order and relaying what he feels kms the order’s wisdom to Anakin.
When it comes to love and even attachment in general, kenobi is much more liberal with the Jedi tenets then he cares to admit. Satine and even Anakin prove this. A lot of what kenobi did for Anakin was great, but at the end of the day he was never gonna outplay palpatine or outmatch the manipulation with his genuine brotherly connection. Anakin needed the more flexible and fatherlike mentorship qui gon would’ve provided. And without Qui Gon’s influence obi-wan spent his last few developmental years riding the high of “killing” the first sith in ages and spending too much time with the jedi council. He fell back into some of their arrogance and poor habits. Maybe palpating orchestrated some kinda sith miasma within the council chambers that clouded their judgement and slightly nudged them toward exaggerating their less desirable traits. We know he used some kind of smokescreen to conceal his power so who knows, it could be multifaceted.
TLDR: RIP Qui Gon
And the sad part is Obi Wan realized he should have never said to Dooku “you lie” once Order 66 was put in place.
Dooku: The Senate is under the control of the dark lord of the sith.
Kenobi: you lie..
//during order 66//
Kenobi: chancellor palpatine is evil!!!
Anakin: Liar!!!
Dooku force ghost: oh dear lord.. i had my head cut off for this?
I love the context of this fight. These guys were all RUSHING , palpatine and dooku are freaking out about syfo dyas being found and their plan exposed, yet when dooku finally catches up like that slow friend out of breath, he still maintains his charismatic cool - “sometimes things are.. just that important..”
Gotta love the guy
He's a Christopher Lee character. His very nature is being cool.
Cool, Old, Bearded Noble Sith Lord
Every moves Dooku make is either to Evade, Unbalance or Seperate Anakin and Obi-Wan.
Dooku never gets into a Lightsaber Lock with either, He always is pushing Anakin on the Defensive while forcing Obi-Wan to go on the Offense.
Also, Every time Dooku swings at Anakin or Obi-Wan, he aims for the limbs, He's trying to cripple them.
Great observation. I may add tho this scene also showcases how deadly Anakin and Obi Wan are when they work together.
Yes, Dooku draws them out of their preferred fighting styles but note how quickly Anakin and Kenobi recover and immediately put Dooku on the retreat.
Anakin and Obi Wan have really come into their own since Episode II. Great details by Filoni.
1:04-1:08 my favorite scene.
That is brilliant on Dooku's part. Forcing each into roles opposite their fighting styles, intentionally fighting each at their weakest roles during the fight.
The Makashi style focuses on disabiling the opponent by attacking limbs or disarming the opponent
@@nathancruz9172 i wish i could :)
I love the way he just keeps anakin from pressing any sort of offense cause he knows his forms weaknesses and knows how to compensate for them. Dooku really is a master of lightsaber combat
Wait doesn’t Anakin always use form 5 since it is a offensive form?
@@kevinkeenan-2.1 yeah which is exactly why dooku instead went on the offensive against Anakin and let Obi-Wan who's more defensive, attack.
@@kevinkeenan-2.1yes, so dooku is keeping him on the defense
The opposite is the case with obi-wan, who's form 3 is defensive, so dooku was making him take the offense
Yeah, once Anakin gains momentum, he's nearly unstoppable. As Dooku would find out later
@@thalmoragent9344 That was just because Dooku was old and thus tired at that point, in part because he defied Palpatine's orders and over exerted himself to take Obi-Wan out non-lethally. Had he gone for the kill or had he been even just a decade younger, Dooku would've still curbed both. Yoda did say in The Mission to Tatooine that Dooku was not as formidable as he was when he was still at the Jedi Order. His age was showing.
Easily one of my favorite duels in all of Star Wars. They way Dooku maintains control of the fight, the way Anakin and Obi Wan are completely in sync and fighting truly as master and apprentice, the context and desperation, and ofcourse, Dooku never losing his composure even when completely out numbered. Underrated scene that’s easily one of the GOATs
Dooku was like the perfect example of a good duelist.. he realized his opponents weaknesses fast and he was also mindful of his surroundings all the time.. in this fight he was always in the very best position for himself and he also forced Anakin on the defensive and Obi-Wan on the offensive cause he knew that is not their fighting stlye
Just goes to show you how much Anakin was done with dooku by rots
@@KinyrYeh anakin wasn't playin that day
@@Kinyr Anakin got lucky Dooku was an old af man at that point and that he only started to take things seriously late into the fight.
@@TheStraightestWhitest Anakin also almost defeated Dooku on Naboo and Dooku took that fight very seriusly as he was fighting for his life
This scene makes Revenge of the Sith a little bit funnier.
"My powers have doubled since the last time we met, Count."
"Bro what? That was like the other day."
Well its not
It's ironic that they specifically didn't let Anakin met Grevious before ROTS.
But Anakin can apparently double his power in a few days 😂
No by “doubled” what he actually meant was “slowly improved over the course of several seasons until finally surpassing you at this moment”
@donavan4222 "since the last time we met"...
@@tombryant7069 it was a joke
1:00 - 1:13 was the greatest example of his mastery with his form and lightsaber. He held that fight single handedly, and with such class.
I just love how Dooku has his one hand behind him while dueling Obi Wan and Anakin.
Hes fighting style is very much based off fencing, so ots very accurate
That's what Makashi(form he uses) is pretty much all about. Using mostly one hand and smooth short moves to max the stamina.
I really liked how Dooku made Obi-Wan and Anakin fight in styles neither are comfortable with. Obi-Wan on offense and Anakin on defence. He definitely exposed both of their flaws.
He did that in attack of the clones and exploit their weaknesses
"sometimes things are just that important"
god i love that line.
I love how this fight is the last one between Anakin, Obi wan and dooku before they face off again in revenge of the Sith. Because it still remains consistent with Obi wan saying “this time we’ll take him together” since at the end Obi wan sent Anakin flying after Dooku. And it remains consistent with Obi wan saying “you won’t get away this time Dooku”
But how can Anakin’s line “my powers have doubled since the last time we met”. Can it really double in power in what seems like a couple of months at most 😅
@@LanceNoir there is something like 8-10 months. And yes you can see here that even together dooku can own them while in ROTS Anakin could defeat him alone so « my power have doubled » isn’t without founding .
@@stormbringer2840 I mean that's kind of a stretch, we know count dooku was instructed to persuade Anakin to turn to the dark side he wasn't trying to kill him in ROTS and didn't realize Palpatine set him up until it was too late.
Anyways the real answer is still: George Lucas didn't plan ahead for the Clone Wars so the lines "my powers have doubled since the last time we met" is meant for AOTC.
@@LanceNoires the line was meant for EpII, but then we remember Anakin is cocky, so we can just say that he was just being cocky saying his powers have doubled in a short time
@@LanceNoir Anakin had grown in power, but his claim that his powers had doubled may be hyperbole.
1:52 I love that Dooku saw what’s going to happened and was quick to act. I also love that Dooku was flexible like in revenge of the sith, and they’re moves are good.
I love how dooku doesn’t need to make contact with every single saber sing thrown his way, in fact he makes it a point to dodge as many of them as he can. I imagine that throws the balance off of your combatants if you’re just constantly whiffing.
Damn, Dooku left Anakin hanging
Literally
Yeah! For his life. 😂
Imagine this fight in live action
If I were the actors I would be completely gassed after one take
Christopher Lee would have a heart attack within the first few jumps 💀 not to mention he is already gone so I dont know how that would be possible but it still would be amazing to see
@@doomsterr We need some nightsisters to come in and bring him back for the scene
@@booki7057 YES! Now where do we find them?
Hayden and Ewan would be going ballistic!
Finally an open comment section instead of for kids only ....
Its so annoying
It doesn't even make sense that youtube categorizes the clone wars as "kids only" since most of us who watched the show are grown adults now.
This shit aint even for kids
Dooku: tells Kenobi everything and reaffirms it years later.
Kenobi: stop talking in riddles old man!
I do like How Dooku doesn't retreat out of cowardice like most sith. But simply recognition that he's not going to win and that it's stupid to continue a lost cause.
Dooku was in top form during this whole fight. Its hard to believe he's in his 80s by this point. Guess he woke up on the right side of the bed that morning. Then again this is probably the only character that can fight in their pajamas and still look cool doing it.
@@crodas6168probably but think of it as this weak body reinforced by the force is strong but a strong body reinforced by the force could be even stronger
@Crodas616 all Jedi does it so it is fair for him to do it as well
@@throwerxf7172 a strong body reinforced by the force would be Luke in episode 6 .
This lightsaber duel is one of my personal favorites. The choreography and the soundtrack made it so awesome.
This is honestly my third favorite in the Clone Wars Ahsoka vs Maul being my obvious favorite with Maul and Savage vs Sidious being 2nd
@@LegendaryCaptaindon’t forget Kenobi’s upset against savage and maul simultaneously. Without mauls desperate push I doubt he could’ve clutched the 1v1 after watching Savage get dismembered. It was all he had to assure they both escaped.
Imo, it was such a bad loss for Maul that he didn’t try dueling kenobi again until Tattooine. He resorts to getting his revenge psychologically by killing Satine. And instead of urging kenobi toward the dark, it grounds him in his convictions. That’s why there’s no urgency to go with Ahsoka for revenge, he trusts the legacy of his mentorship and the skills of Ahsoka, and feels no need to return maul’s petty vengeance.
Even when kenobi finally gets his vengeance, both for Qui Gon and Satine, there’s no malice. He puts maul at peace by alluding to Luke’s vengeance, and even honors him with the same burial he gave the very master that Maul killed.
So yeah, maul and savage getting wrecked is in my top 5 at least.
0:58 - 1:12 Dooku's flexing is just at another level. Pressing Anakin so he would fight defensively while Kenobi would fight offensively... Truly a tactical genius.
Dooku may not be the best duelist ever (still an s tier duelist though), but he is clearly classy as fuck and the fanciest duelist that galaxy has ever had. Just look at him how he moves while he is dueling two high tier Jedi...
The fact Dooku is 83 years old in this episode makes it better, and he was fighting these two young high tier Jedi. Anakin is 22 here and Obi Wan 35-36. They are by all menas physically superior to Dooku, yet my old guy literally threw Kenobi like nothing and kicked Anakin who's a tank.
Sorry for the Dooku Wank, it's just this show really shows how badass Dooku can be 🥺.
PS: Sorry if you read bad english guys, it's not my first language.
this show makes dooku look so cool it's great, especially considering how stupid his character is in the prequels (no disrespect to christolee, he was great)
@@alabama4625 How was he stupid?
@@holidaypunch6621 he's not a real character, has no motivation for his actions.
he's just a henchman when he could've been so much more, as shown by the tv show and other material, again I'm only criticizing the movie, in the context of only taking that into account.
Totally coulda killed Kenobi at 1:02
@@SharkMako Too early for the sith grand plan. Dooku is not trying to kill them here, but rather cripple them. Not to mention Dooku actually wanted Kenobi om his side while he wanted Anakin dead like nothing else.
Best display of how Form III is completely useless against a master of Form II.
Form III was actually developed to counter Form II's defensive weaknesses, particularly it being ill-suited to deflecting blasterfire, so it is ideally suited to fighting a master of it as long as the Form III user can maintain their stamina and composure.
@@samalvey8168 dude, those devleopments were meant for more pracical combat situations, where in conflicts without actual dueling, or without immediate locked matches one on one, where blaster fire in a chaotic and overwhelming environment comes into play, the third form is used to develop a simple and steadfast line of defense, compared to form 2's design for dueling
To be fair, Form II is just the best lightsaber combat form. Even Sidious held resentment towards Dooku because it made Dooku a better duelist than himself. The only reason Dooku eventually lost was age. Form II doesn't really have weaknesses in lightsaber combat. Its only weakness is being shit against blaster bolts.
@@TheStraightestWhitest Actually, it did have one weakness against lightsabers, namely its lack of kinetic energy. Form II placed emphasis on light, precise, fast and elegant bladework, leaving it potentially weak against a powerful offence (Form V) or strong defence (Form III).
@@samalvey8168 It's total kryptonite to Form III and superb against Form V. Strong never works when it isn't met with resistance, but rather taken for a ride and simply put off balance using its own momentum. That's literally what entire sports such as Judo are built upon.
The dueling form is the dueling form for a reason. It's the same as that in a duel, nothing beat a small sword or a rapier. Something Christopher Lee knew all too well.
We need more prime Dooku stories where he’s wrecking folks with Form 2…it’s the definition of “an elegant weapon for a more civilized age”.
“I told you everything you needed to know on Geonosis all those years ago Kenobi, You should have joined me”
He has Sith eyes while saying this, which he rarely ever has Sith eyes
He was probably very angry because in AOTC he said Qui Gon would understand and as Kenobi was Qui Gon's apprentice, he wanted Obi Wan to join him.
Dooku probably wanted to kill Sidious with the help of Kenobi and then rule the galaxy their way.
@@karolclark791 yes . He didn’t abandon the idea either , he planned to do that using ventress later ( which is why sidious wanted her dead ) then Quinlan vos .
2:11 Let go your earthly teder, Enter the void, Empty and become wind
Ah yes, a quote from the only half decent Book from Legend of Korra.
Its crazy how well choregraphed even the subtle force movements are. I at first thought Dooku could've been cut down easily as he telegraphed too much and left wide saber swings, only to realize...
_Anakin wasn't missing, Dooku was using his other hand to push Anakin's saber away_ What a great fight, with lots of respect to Light Saber+ Force Forms
At what scene? I’m trying to look for it
When did he do that?
Probably where anakin fought dooku on the spaceship.
Dooku never wanted to kill obi-wan nor harm him like he did anakin, and I believe he didn’t want to kill them, he let them live every single battle, mostl likely because of qui-gon, who was his favorite student and friend
Anakin needed to live, Because sidious told him. Also he often just should mock anakin in their fights to Raise his hate.
Well he hated Anakin (Most likely because he saw his younger self in Anakin) but yeah, he did have a soft spot for Obi-Wan. In fact in ROTS Dooku threw a monkey wrench in Sidious' plans when he went against the script and only knocked Obi-Wan out instead of killing him like Sidious wanted. If Dooku hadn't spared Obi-Wan's life, then Obi-Wan wouldn't have been around to later cripple Anakin the way he did
@@dreadrathFunny how Dooku got the last laugh. By letting Obi-Wan live, Luke got trained and set on his path as a Jedi, Vader defaulted, and Sidious was overthrown.
Dooku is sigma@@TheStraightestWhitest
@@matthewchitcarof5692 Just like his actor. The highest level Sigma.
Obi wan having a flashback of maul when he falls over the edge and almost loses his lightsaber
0:58-1:13 has got to be the greatest Star Wars scene. The choreography of their lightsabers is magnificent. Even if it is just a cartoon.
Oh god cartoons have so much more potential for good coreography. You can make anyone do anything you want making good coreography much easier and better
That was a smooth getaway.
Can we just talk about how quickly Anakin recovered from being kicked into the wall? Freaking cool.
“Left hands are for nerds” -Count Dooku
It really feels like Dooku gets some of the best fights in the series. I rewatch this and the Nightsisters constantly, he’s just so fluid when he duels
1:07 dooku was having too much fun
1:05 lol yo that was almost the end of the series
2:35 it's over Anakin, Dooku has the high ground
When a leader does the dirty work, is when you know the situation is more serious than meets the eye
I wish they did call Dooku Tyranus more often than calling him Dooku
They didn't have to spin around each other for that tagteam force push, but they did it. They did it for us.
1:07 Count Dooku is so scary when he is on low potential 💀
Dooku> anakin , obiwan 🔥 🔥 🔥
@@Overlord18802 that's kinda true but anakin used a combination of form 4 and form 5 which is a critical weakness of form 2,that's why dooku died in revenge of the sith because he had alot of disadvantages.

Count Dooku is such a great villain; he is in fact one of the greatest villains of all time in history for the simple way in which he does things and succeeds. He says he's going to kill everyone via Order sixty-six with the help of the Emperor who is currently Sheev Palpatine, the leader of the Senate and no one simply believes him....
1:10 Dooku kicks Anakin in the back of the head. Never noticed that before.
No Anakin dodged it last second it.
@@THEdudeproductions No, u can see Anakin react in pain to the kick
@@alexdeghost2729 Yeah thats my bad. They should've added a sound effect there. I swear there isn't a sound there.
1:24 you think that based off this line and just how obviously shady the whole war has been that maybe the jedi would pick up on something
By the time they did, like the clones being created by tyranus and all that, they could literally do nothing about it
The momentum and morale the Republic was gaining with the outer rim sieges would be absolutely shattered
Especially since this was right after the whole chip debacle with fives
The Jedi were really corrupt by this point. They prioritze to secure the win in the clone wars so that they may have more political power than investigating what was going on in the backstage. Fives told them about chips, Dooku was revealed to have a hand in the creation of the clones and they even had the suspicion of a "Sith Lord" being among Palpatine's men but somehow can't piece all of them together
In fairness to the Jedi in this episode they say this is shady, but also question what can they realistically do. This whole plan is has trapped the Jedi pretty well.
Let’s say the Jedi at the start of the war refuse to fight in it and say the Republic shouldn’t use the clones because they don’t know why they were ordered. The Republic is still at war with the Separatists and don’t have a standing army. Palpatine is still going to get support to use the clones as their army. The Jedi just aren’t part of it. That gives Palatine the angle of smearing the Jedi Order’s name for refusing to help end the war or even start conspiracy that Dooku is still a Jedi and is secretly under orders from the Jedi Council to be leading this army against the Republic so the Jedi can take it over. Turn the Jedi into public enemy #1 and still be killed by the clone army that out numbers them.
If the Jedi pull out of the war after this episode the Republic won’t stop using the clones. It still bad PR for the Order and Palpatine can still manipulate events to make the Jedi look bad and justify the need to kill them.
The Jedi lost the moment Dooku joined Sidious. Having a clone army and ensuring the Republic would fracture and go to war against itself trapped the Jedi. If they don’t join they look bad, if they lead this army and help, they look bad, if they completely remove themselves from government they look bad.
@@Jjop017 exactly. They should have listened to dooku when he was warning them but once they lost him they lost everything.
Darth Tyrannus fighting two Jedi like it's a casual sparring session is so good.
Thumbnail looks like Dooku has a crossguard
Dooku technically has a curved-hilt saber, Kylo Ren has a crossguard both saber variants were made for Form II/Makashi
Yeah I noticed that too.
Dooku defiantly having fun with this
He didn't have fun, we saw here than he can't defeat anakin and obi wan combined because they are too strong and in ep 3 is the same situation
but 1v1 he can beat both
@@miguelmartinez7424 I don’t know what you’re looking at, Dooku could have killed Kenobi twice in this episode xd. In revenge of the Sith, he also spared Kenobi, and lost to Anakin only because Anakin turned on Darth Vader with a bonus in the form of fear for his friends, at the same time Dooku was confused and did not understand when to stop holding back. Both Jedi would be dead if Dooku wanted him to, especially if he hated them
@@user-gp9of2le7jdefinitely. Dooku was holding back on revenge of the sith, he didn’t even use his force lightning..
Notice that Dooku always takes offense against Anakin while pushing aside Kenobi.
Dooku is so badass
The Jedi never listen. Yes the sith are their enemies but Dooku on many occasions revealed so many secrets and all they think is “he lies”. If they would have really thought about it, everything Dooku said makes sense especially now that he told them Syfo-Dyas was in on it. Sufi-Dyas went behind the backs of the council and republic to get them a clone army for what was to come. And they never once thought maybe he did all these strange things for a reason? Or maybe he knew something .
I think the council wanted to win the war before looking into the clones.
Becuase without the clones they would be an easy target for the seperatists.
So the jedi were screwed at this point no matter what they did, the only had as much time as Sidious needed to seduce Anakin to the dark side.
You forgot how Dooku manipulated Sifo Dyas and then killed him
Dooku’s form can be characterized by one word. Elegant
I love this clone wars episode reminds me of the fight from revenge of the Sith
Watch it in 0,25 speed and see how amazingly this fight scene is animated
This is my favourite dooku scene and forsure favourite animated Star Wars scene the foreshadowing to their next meeting is awesome and seeing a confident and full form dooku is a treat as always
Dooku totally pwn’d Anakin and Obi-Wan! Not only did he fight them both with one hand but the other was behind his back. And made them both look sloppy the entire time.
He forced Obi-Wan to fight offensively and Anakin defensively throwing them off their respective fighting techniques. He outmatched them! Brilliant strategy!
Ever since episode 3 came out me and my 2 cousins would reenact dooku v ani+obi. I loved his one hand back fencing style pose he did.
Also helped he was voiced/acted by Christopher Lee; Absolute champion of all champions, RIP.
Fun Fact: The music in this duel is reused from the Episode "Eminence", and it's called "Maul, Savage and Vizla".
At 1:03 Dooku literally grabs and throws Obi-Wan
So nice to actually see Dooku stop playing with Anakin for once and dial it up to about 85%. Despite the huge gains Obi and Ani made in the previous 2.5 years, Dooku was still schooling them, and, once again, spared Obi-Wan's life. The part where he knees Obi-Wan in the gut, and hip-tosses him, he had Obi-Wan's sword arm pinned and had a wide open shot to his chest. He didn't take it. He also could have simply Force Pushed Obi-Wan off the ledge after kicking him. Instead he goes for the highly telegraphed thrust at Anakin. Again, with the Force as an ally, we see the top tier masters make a mockery of age and human limitations. Dooku was running circles around men 1/3 is age.
In the scene where Dooku manhandles Obi Wan, I think Obi Wan actually holds Dooku’s blade with his other arm to block his attack. It’s very hard to see, but that’s why Dooku throws Obi Wan instead of killing him
Obi-wan grabbed his hand that’s why he tossed him
Obi-Wan: has a decade more experience than Anakin
Also Obi-Wan: Gets his ass handed to him by Dooku, while Anakin is holding his own
Obi wan is all about defense, and Count Dooku, style picks apart that defense, in every fight Obi-wan is at a disadvantage
@@festivegod335 that's not the reason. Obi wan Is not using his form 3 defensive stance here. He his using form 4 Offensive. And kicks are very useful in 2v1 light Saber duels. Literally every guy that goes 1 v 2 kicks the heck out of someone. Example obi wan and sidious vs maul and Savage. This is no different.
@@calebwilliams790 Obi Wan has decent form IV however nowhere as good as Anakin. The main thing is he's fighting dooku so his competence in the form doesn't come close to dookus mastery in form II. Also Obi Wan uses Qui Gons ataru which I'm sure Dooku had plenty of time to fight against when training him 😂
Dooku is a master of Form II, He's is so good he can easily go 3v1 and still hold his owns.
Form II is excellent against Lightsaber Users, And Dooku is so good he can easily find gaps in Obi-Wan Form III Defense
Repent for your sins and have faith in Jesus and you shall have eternal life in heaven
1:07 is the best you have dooku spinning I'm the air
It’s always a treat to see Dooku in lightsaber combat, because his movements, footwork and even lightsaber strikes are so fluid, rapid, precise and elegant. It LITERALLY looks like he’s performing an elegant dance whenever he fights. I can DEFINITELY see the influence of fencing in the techniques of Form II Makashi. That curved lightsaber hilt definitely helps him with his thrusts because you can see him basically combining his whole arm and his lightsaber blade into one with each piercing stroke with little effort exerted. So badass.🤩
Gotta admit dooku was a smart apprentice and he always had respect for kenobi too. I can understand why anakin and dooku were such rivals and enemies when dooku cut off his hand and taunted anakin and dooku knowing how powerful anakin had become.

One thing I never quite figured out. Darth Sidious told him to find the loose end and eliminate it, yet the Jedi still find out he is Tyranus and to that end created their clones for them to fight alongside with so what exactly did he accomplish here accept show how much style he has 😅
There was more to it that the guy could’ve said ( the bioship inserted into each clone for exemple)
1:54 did anyone ask themselves why obi wan and anakin did that I mean shouldn't they have known that the force wave would've also hit the pikes? I mean they killed a pike (the right one) by force pushing him off and indirectly killed the pikes PM
The move Obi-Wan performs at 1:11 by slashing his lightsaber to the ground is the same with that of the game Revenge of the Sith when he fights against Anakin in the final level of the game
The soundtrack to
This fight is awesome
It's huge how the thumbnail makes it look like Dooku has a crossguard lightsaber.
2:02: Dang it, Count! That was the Shiny!
In Disney canon, per the dark disciple novel that takes place after this battle, the only way to defeat Dooku is through anger fear and hatred. Notice in this duel that anakin isn't using any of those and is easily handled. Dooku is truly more powerful than a any jedi save for yoda, and his sword mastery is more than a match for almost all of them. Do defeat Dooku. You must fight fire with fire (doesn't apply to Yoda)
Dooku's fight against Savage backs that up he broke Dooku's stance so often that he was forced to rely on lightning to deal with him
@Azun Kor Dooku has also lost to Quinlan Voss when he was a full darkside user (As Dookus secret apprentice) because of the power increase Voss received from his rage. Dooku has top tier defense but can be tackled and dropped. With open space, and not a 2v1, Dooku would have been able to handle Savage Opress with relative ease.
@Kagami Uchiha The Beast it's not that simple. Allow me to explain. In new canon, Dooku is nearly UNBEATABLE without the combatant using anger fear and hatred (a well established power increase, strength, stamina, etc). This combatant would be a jedi, who has reached the limit of what they can do (jedi vows) against Tyranus (sabers or force ability, he's almost unmatched) therefore in order to SURPASS dooku, you would either need to break jedi vows or fall to the dark and receive a power bump, and, even with that initial dark turn, Dooku would most likely still dominate.
@Kagami Uchiha The Beast I'm fully aware of of the duels quinlan and dooku had. They only have 2 true duels, the first is a 2v1 and dooku dominates, and quinlan was already using darkside emotions, just not the "final layer" once he dug deep for the final layer, he was able to drop dooku to the ground, disarming him, but not defeating him. Darkside emotions allow brutal power that can drop Dooku, not necessarily defeat him. After months of torture, Dooku created a darkside beast in Quinlan, and, later they have a proper 1v1 and Quinlan gets it done. Dooku is the perfect anti jedi duelist, with perfect defense and grace, but can lose to other powerhouse darkside users.
@Kagami Uchiha The Beast it's not his power level, it's the brute power he's throwing around. When he swings hard and lands on a block, it sends combatants flying back. He lands this on Sidious as well. Something they would have to work around and adjust to mid combat
This fight reminds me of when obi-wan and qui-gon faced maul on naboo.
1:07 is no one gonna talk about how clean that was
God DAMN Dooku is a beast
Love dookus smile while fighting. He was enjoying it.
I enjoyed how this fight displayed the difference in how they are both skilled and talented! Dooku, who has both natural talent and fully mastered his form, presses Obiwan who's had to work very hard to reach the level he's at, but he's still outmatched by Dooku and looses focus. Because of how he opens himself to counters, it throws Anakin off too, he has to not only make up for Obi Wan, but his concerns for him puts him off to, so despite being exceptionally talented and an extremely skilled duelist, he's still off balance and giving everything just to stay afloat! Dooku used a lot of energy and big explosive movements to put this pressure on though, which makes perfect sense as to why he's exhausted by the end
I also get the feeling Dooku was just toying with them the whole time, He had A lot of openings on both of them that he didn't take full advantage of
@Mecha Salesman - hope to see you again soon on Twitch. Thanks for sharing!
I like how in the thumb nail it looks like dooku has a red cross guard with blue side blades
One main thing that I noticed throughout the duel is while Dooku is keeping his distance with Obi-wan and Anakin as the fight progresses you could tell that Dooku is getting caught off guard by their growing power the rots novel further explains this by Dooku being surprised by their skill
“I told you everything you needed to know on Geonosis all those years ago.”
…I mean he’s not wrong.
This might be the best fight sequence is all of star wars.....wow
Dooku is such an underappreciated character and only recently is he being shown the love he deserves.
Of course a character portrayed by _the_ Christopher Lee is legendary- done justice by Corey Burton’s voice acting prowess- but the writing and care for such a conflicted, complex character is on the tier of legendary stories like those of the Old Republic era!
After this, Anakin' powers had doubled.
It is really funny how that's apparently canon now. If they made an episode later than showed Anikin gaining a new force ability or had gone really hard into training then the line might have made sense but now it seems silly
Who remembers Voca productions uploading clone wars clips?
Me 😂😂😂
The music sounds like a boss fight
1:10 he uses the behind the back block to block both Anakin and Obi-Wans attacks
Did Dooku really just say "Turd" 💀
@Assassino275 This shows us just how powerful Dooku really was, the Jedi were so close to find out about Order 66 but they were to arrogant to see the truth, just like Dooku and Sidious said.
1:06 this might genuinely be one of the most nutty moves in all of Star Wars
I need to know the soundtrqck had me vibing
LMFAO SAMEEE
U need a soundtrack?
0:11 this is the same music that played when Darth maul and savage opress fought Darth Sidious.
Like a boss
1:20 realization
1:23
1:24
Dooku is one smooth man. Jumps on one ship, destroys it and boards another one so casually
Best duelist ever
A Jedi knight in a Jedi master sat there and watch somebody being forced choked, and couldn’t sense the Sith 10 feet behind them?
I love Dooku so much becuase he is so elegant in his moves.
This fight is top 5 in coolest duels in sw.
Basically, this is Anakin and Obi-Wan having their second lightsaber duel with Count Dooku!
