Dooku and Windu

I'm with Darth Rankkor on this one. Do you people know the movies? He had the plans for the Death Star!!!! He didn't want to lose them. Tyranus would never deny a battle, he lives for it. There is little doubt that Yoda is more powerful, but Tyranus sure did give him a run for his money. Besides, its Dooku and Windu, not Dooku and Yoda we're discussing here.

I agree totally with Melkor

I don't agree whatsoever. The Death Star plans don't play into it at all. It was a matter of him dying or him running.

Though, yeah, Mace and Dooku would be an interesting duel... 😛

Dooku has the upperhand with form II.

That makes me laugh. 😂

That makes me want to shoot something... 🙄

I would have to say that Dooku didn't have the upper hand, since he was the one running like a coward. 😄

When he was fighting Yoda he knew clone troopers would come in. He defeated both Anakin and Obi in AOTC and Obi again in ROTS which would be very difficult to do when he was fighting Anakin without using form II. Form II is based on defending himself from a lightsaber.

Remember that Form II lightsabre combat is made exactly for duelling. The techniques adopted by Obi Wan and the majority of Jedi is for defence. Hence the reason Dooku has the upper hand. Of course the plans had something to with it. If Dooku was defeated, the plans would have been taken and Sidious' plan foiled. The Count was Yoda's apprentice and well aware of Yoda's fighting techniques. Dooku's lightsabre combate is outstanding, can only be defeated by a few. Perhaps Windu, Yoda. That's about it. Once again he proved that Obi Wan is no match for him. Dooku is a master swordsman.

Dooku would win, but Windu would come very close. I would have loved to see this battle.

first off dooku and windu are not the best swordsman, that goes obviously to palps, Yoda and Anakin.

but indeed, mace vs dooku would be good

oh and Form II is EU...along with all the forms.

Agreed, on all parts.

People disregard Anakin for losing to OW when they shouldnt. And the people who think Palps wasnt faking think Palps isnt any good.

After seeing Episode III, I thought Mace should have fought Dooku with Yoda being saved for Sidious. It would have been nice to see Mace use some kind of force power in the PT as well.

Indeed

palps fought Yoda equally in his sword fighting.

Yoda is better then Windu

meaning

Palps was not giving it his all during his fight with Windu for whatever reasons. 1) he didnt expect windu to be as good as he was and it bit him in the @ss 2) he knew anakin was coming so he just lost on purpose

-Anakin should not have lost to Obi, he is much better. Darkside arrogance was his downfall

-Anakin owned Dooku, enough said

making the best 3: Yoda, Sids, Anakin

Mace in my opinion is a better swordsman than yoda.

*sigh*

..........

i've given this argument so many times i dont even feel like saying it again...

Yoda is the best, he was meant to be the best, and its pretty damn obvious hes far more skilled then windu..

Yeah...I'm pretty much beginning to hate this thread.

I go with Anomaly's and Ast Rofan's explanation of top swordsmen.

Mace Windu and Count Dooku are some of the top contenders regarding lightsaber combat, which is quite an acomplishment seeing as there are several hundred Jedi. Anakin, Yoda, and Palpatine, however, could put them down.

Palpatine obviously outdid Dooku, even if we don't see it on screen; why would you want to be the apprentice to someone weaker than you?

And if Dooku and Windu are on equal terms, that means Palpatine would be better than Windu as well.

Anakin hauls Dooku's ass. w00t.

Yoda ALMOSTS hands Dooku's ass to him in Episode II, but Dooku runs...and it's not because of the feckin' Death Star plans! Just listen to Yoda's lines, sheesh!

And Yoda fights on par with Palpatine, and Palpatine gets lucky that Yoda falls, in my opinion.

Dooku pwns Windu and would hand him his ass. As for Yoda and Dukoo, the fight was overrated. To man people liked the fact that Yoda had to jump all over the place.

Meh, Yoda was better anyway, even if the jumping was annoying.

He was, I mean 400 years of lightsaber training sheesh. I couldn't handle that!

yes indeed.

but i dont think Palps got lucky per say, the fight could have gone either way. Yoda would not beat him for sure.
