Ahem.

The reason this happened is because Anakin and Obi-Wan were preparing angles of attack AND readjusting to the other's incomong strike.

They have fought side by side so often they know each other's moves by heart, so they are constantly adjusting and readjusting their angles of attack to actually do something on a strike. This combined with their Jedi reflexes and precognition causes this effect.

Ah the legend of darth yasuo the "wise", legendary overlord of wood elo who blamed his teammates but can never save himself in a 1v5... i heard from the tales he assumed his teammates were holding him back and used the dark side of the MMR to boost himself and to create a gold account

Don't say that. The original trilogy fans will come and start bitching. In an actual fight they have build up enough momentum that a strike will slice you up good with a real sword. Probably cut your sword too so while people whine and bitch about how useless and stupid it looks this shit will easily penetrate another sword and it's flowing so well they can actually dodge an incoming hit at no cost of reflex and strike rather quick too. I play baseball and one of the things to get a hard hit going when batting is to swing the bat around to build up before swinging.[slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

Right, the momentum building function is also valid.

Personally I'm an Everything Star Wars fan. They all provide something special for me, and I aprreciate their story and overall visuals and mechanics.

Thanks for the support mate.

Between the original lore, the fanfiction that the EU became, and the current stuff- Star Wars just went all over the place.

And don't give me "precog". That stuff works as well as the plot wants it to and not a bit more or less than what it needs to in order to progress the story.

TyrekGoldenspear3 votes

It didn't really, when you look at it as a whole.

Also its not just precog as every Force Sensitive in the galaxy has that. It's also familiarity with the opponent, a desire to hit a meaningful strike and counterstrike the opponent while they are executing a move you've seen done a thousand times.

Idk though they only do that star wars 1-3. 4-7 doesn't and in the Clone wars and Rebels as well.

Welp, I could give a long winded answer but I am quite tired.

The short answer is that the prequels had better trained Jedi who actually knew at least one of the 7 forms of lightsaber combat. Their movements are more fluid thanks to their training regiment since kids.

Now the lightsaber duels in Rebels through 7 are more raw and unstylized due to the loss of the knowledge of the forms of lightsaber combat. They have to essentially fashion new styles.

I do this in lane as yasuo to keep my stacks up and look for an opening for an E>Q.

I wish they gave him a counter on his dashes. Like he can store up to 4 dashes at a time or something. That way he still has his mobility but cant just spam it brainlessly. A dash with a 0.2 sec cool down with no resource is pretty dumb.

a recent star wars episode actually explained that light sabers attract each other like a magnet but have a mass depending upon the make of the crystal and its focused energy blade

so, the reason so many complex maneuvers are required is to create a hole in your opponents defense because it is almost impossible not to block when in the proper position

Sraeg20132 votes

You mean the Farce Engorges or the Rouge Wan?

Farahad1 votes

I think it was in Rebels (can't confirm though, as I haven't actually seen it).

Sraeg20131 votes

I did watch that Rebels' episode.

While blades do attract themselves like magnets, none of the rest is correct. Everything else is getting used to handling a fundamentally weightless, especially for a person proficient in conventional weapons. Like driving 16-wheelers your whole life, then switching to a Smart-like car overnight.

For example it's still completely possible for blades to "slide" if you apply force equal and opposite to magnetic attraction, as showcased durning Kenobi's duel with Grievous in the third prequel movie, when he cut off one of Griveous hands while blades were "locked".

no, I mean the closer to the original star wars show that is Star Wars: Rebels . It's sad when a full-budget movie team is cranking out movies in a year of lesser quality than tv episodes made in a month

I guess their movies are good if you like tragedy, but the biggest seller of all for star wars is that the characters were idols...characters that the audience could look up to

now we have...several dozen coffins

also, any idea why the forums are broken?

Because of the feminazi agenda of Kathleen Kennedy and co.

Like they added the whole Kylo got shot later, because even they thought it was stupid for Kylo to get bested by Rey. No really. Check trailers. Kylo is unharmed.

As for the Rouge Wan they fired the original screenwriter and re-shot nearly half of the movie, because it didn't suit Kennedy's tastes.

now we have...several dozen coffins

Not only they are dead, but their actions also ended up meaning complete jack shit.

Like there's a new "Republic", but their "army" is called "Resistance", they lack funds, they lack people, they lack information, while a newly created terrorist organisation has so much of all of that, they were able to build a Death Star that is 10 times bigger and have like a bajilion soldiers.

also, any idea why the forums are broken?

The only thing that is broken is my Firefox, because I can't restore tabs from my last session.

What's wrong with the Boards? I can't see anything out of ordinary.
