      Agreed according to George Lucas if you weren't Yoda, Mace, and Anakin you didn't stand a chance against him as a swordsman or the force. This is in terms of the Jedi. Dooku could potentially as a swordsman in the Sith side.

    One thing that always surprised me about Sidious; he found ways to fabricate multiple priceless, Indestructible lightsabers. I know some elements of the lore might not be canon, anymore, but I seem to recall that, at least at one point, Palpatine had a lightsaber housed in phrik; basically Indestructible, and this was practically dip-coated in electrum; a very precious metal. That one lightsaber seems a bit silly, considering how he never really planned to let most people see it, but then it turned out he had three? And possibly more? At least one survived to the Vader days, as he gave it to an unsatisfied Darth Vader to use, while working to replace his own, but I guess it's good to know he found uses for his family money, and that Plagueis left him, if you will, to fabricate such marvels.

    • @logicplague2077
      @logicplague2077 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don't know what it is in canon, but IRL electrum is an alloy of ~75% gold and ~25% silver, also called "green gold" for its tint. Depending on the mixture, it's kinda hard to tell unless you hold it next to some pure yellow gold. It can also be found in nature occasionally, as the metals can be found together, albeit with random percentages of each.

      @Avian-24 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Completely agree; he needed Anakin to do what he did so that he could complete his fall to the darkside. The novel sweepinglyplays to this. Sidious could feel the turmoil in Anakin while he was still in the Jedi temple - he let Mace get the "upperhand" as Anakin entered the area so that he could defend Sidious and the knowledge to save Padme. It was the final part of Sidious's machinations with Anakin to make him fall; although he didn't orchestrate the situation, he turned it to his interest like he did everything else he did.

    "To refrain from senseless killing, they wielded force pikes rather than lightsabers, meter long melee weapons used by the Ichani and the Senate Guard. The pikes were equipped with stun modules capable of delivering a shock that could overwhelm the nervous system of most sentients, without causing permanent damage." - Darth Plagueis novel
    They were never there to destroy the people, the only one killed was the last remaining warrior, the strongest. The people of Kurseed viewed this ritual as a right of passage, and the Sith viewed them as fellow servants of the dark side as they were, with one advancing the other through this ritual. Plagueis even remarks that perhaps one day when both had advanced beyond the need for the ritual, they would come to honor them, rather than engage them in battle.

    Plagueis trained him well. In his opinion, amongst the Jedi of the time prior to TPM, only Yoda and Dooku could defeat he or Sidious. By the Clone Wars the number included Mace Windu. Dueling is more than swordsmanship though, but Dooku is probably the best pure swordsman of the lot. Sidious and Yoda are however more powerful. While it is true Sidious probably wins a straight up duel between him and Dooku, on a good day Dooku can beat him.

    Banite Sith, has always bee4n an order which is dedicated to survival of the fittest and ever successive generation becoming more powerful and talented than the last as they advance the grand plan. Sidious is put through several lethal crucibles in order to become such a deadly lightsaber duellist that aided and enhanced by the power of the dark side its no wonder he was able to cut down three jedi masters like they were chaff in revenge of the sith.
    Though being an avatar of and having his strikes and form powered by the dark side, didn't help him against mace windu and is why he was utterly defeated by the master of vaapad. A form that takes the power of the dark side and turns it back upon the wielder in powering and enhancing the strikes of the jedi vaapad user.

    @raiderax8532 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    And here lies our answer. Sidious is a master of the blade simply because of the quality of his opponents with plagueis being a master of all forms of lightsaber combat, and droids that were the absolute best in the galaxy, droids that were not created by his or his masters hand. "For you are a sith lord and have been marked for death" these are the words of someone who is on edge never letting their guard down. Time and time again do the jedi actually fall into this pothole, for this look no further than Master Luminara vs Ventress in the clone wars. Ventress was able to escape because of Luminara becoming overconfident and letting her guard down allowing for here to be temporarily blind in one eye. The sith fight until death no one must know they are alive vs the jedi who fight until a surrender. There are only 2 sith on the galaxy and should one fall the grand plan would be put in danger.

Still, it'd be a damn tough fight for Dooku. He's certainly got a shot of beating Palps. That said, if Sidious bring his superior force power to bear, he'd win eventually.

Just think about it for a second, anakin was the chosen one - if he was the chosen one, then how could Mace have killed Sideous? Clearly palpatine knew Anakin was coming to see him, he knew this was the moment to push Anakin fully to the dark side.
    It's fully possible that Mace could have won in a fair fight, but in that fight, Palpatine threw it so he could turn anakin.
