If he gets a full rest after every fight, wouldn't that mean its irrelevant how many opponents he's fought beforehand? If that's the case then he dies at 8. If we assume that he's fighting one after the other then he dies at 4 or 5.
There is only one Grievous, and he's not losing a sabers duel to Mundi. Especially considering he managed to take on Windu with only two sabers in LoE.
How so? TCW Grievous has only been defeated in a Saber match up by Ventress. And even that was on a planet strong in the dark side.
You could argue TCW Grievous is more suscecpitble to TK attacks but even that is questionable, considering in the CW Mini, Mace easily crushed his chest, Dooku easily sent him flying all over the place, and in ROTS Kenobi sent him flying like 50 feet disarming him of his remaining weapons.
Old Grievous ployed through Jedi left and right: in Obsession, he crushed Adi Gallia, but in TCW, she holds him off. Dooku regards him more powerful than Ventress, and he proceeds to beat Durge and Ventress at the same time (albeit it was bad writing, as was his fighting scene on Hypori, but it stands). He's able to press Dooku in strict dueling and fight Mace as an equal while disadvantaged (and slaughters four Jedi in the same book). He vastly exceeds the Grievous portrayed in TCW.
Obviously killing Adi is non-canon. But he has defeated her in TCW in one of those Droid episodes. And the impression I got in Obsession was he took her by surprise in with a free hand.
Where does Dooku regard her weaker than Grievous? He was in command over her in TCW as well.
Who says he still would not give Dooku/Mace trouble in a pure Saber match up? Those 2 were always able to own him via the Force even in the CW mini cartoon.
Grievous cannot challenge Dooku or Mace in a duel. Ahsoka's given him trouble and he loses to Jedi of Ventress' caliber.
He had a meeting scheduled with the formidable General Grievous, who was even more powerful than Ventress, but a great deal less interesting as a dinner-table conversationalist.
LOL. They actually had two conversations in the book, the first one of which ended with Ventress panting on the floor and the second where he threatens her.
A talk with Grievous would've been hilarious, though.
Well... The whole point of a gauntlet is to put the runner's opponents in order from the weakest to the most powerful... You know, to see how far he gets?
