Lord Tyranus vS Obi Wan Kenobi

Well...duels between master and apprentice seem to be the best and in most cases the opponents seem to be equally skilled because they know exactly how the other will fight. I'd personally like to see:

- Yoda vs Dooku (till death)
- Dooku vs Qui-Gon Jinn
- Qui-Gon Jinn vs Obi-Wan Kenobi

Hm, on Yoda versus Dooku, I think Dooku has the potential to beat Yoda physically, but his own insecurity undermines him. He might lose.

As for Dooku and Qui Gon Jinn, I think the gap is much wider. QGJ's style is too open and underdeveloped to compete with Dooku's.

And Qui Gon versus Obi-Wan, this would ultimately be in Obi's favor since he goes on to be a much better duellist than QGJ.

You on drugs? After Dooku finished his "You have hate.... You have anger, but you don't use them." Speech, Dooku had a perfect opportunity to bring a down swing on Anakin, killing him super quick, but he stopped and waited for Anakin to hit his Lightsaber. Dooku could have raped Anakin. I think he wanted Anakin to win so hopefully he would get sentenced by the council and be back on his feet in no time, but Palpatine had other plans...

anakin would be able to have sensed an attack coming through the force and that is why he did not look very well defended. The fact that dooku was able to take both anakin and obiwon and knock obiwon out of action for a while makes it look like he is a lot better than anakin but do you really think sidious would choose anakin over dooku unless he was 100% sure. Plus anakin was a lot younger. And tyranus wins this thread

WTF ?
Dooku is better than Obi-Wan and Anakin together. He could have killed them easily on Geonosis and he could also have done that in ROTS. Sidious told Dooku to kill Obi-Wan and then let himself being capture by Anakin (that's what the ROTS novel says) and it's pretty obvious that Dookus intention was to lose the ROTS fight (he switched his style).

And Sidious was 100 % sure he wanted Anakin. Anakin was the chosen one (Sidious knew it), Anakin was the greatest Jedi (raw potential) alive and Sidious knew it - so why should he not be sure.

Last point: Anakin was younger. Great point. But what should that tell us ? That Sidious will keep an apprentice that is older than himself instead of somebody that is 40 years younger them himself and who has tons of more potential ? Urm...or do you want to tell us that Anakin defeated Dooku because of his youth. Ever seen Yoda fighting ?

Well, now, even if Dooku could have defeated Obi-Wan and Anakin (which he could have) it would have been excessively difficult. You seem to underestimate the two of them dramatically. They're arguably the greatest team that the Clone Wars, or the movie era for that matter, ever saw.

And if you go by the novel, then so will I. In the book, the two Jedi, once fighting with their all, nearly overwhelm Dooku, until he lets out a furious kick that separates them, and knocks Kenobi unconcious. Following, he duels and gains an advatage on Anakin, but loses because of his own arrogance. By telling Anakin to "use his anger," he lets out the full force of ROTS Anakin. He becomes overwhelmed by the furious power and strength of the youth.

Anyways, the way I see it is that, although he is a superior swordsman, he could not stand up to the furious rage of Skywalker. His Makashi style was for finesse and precision, not staving off physical blows.

dooku trained qui gon and qui gon trained obiwan so obviosly obiwan would no dooku's moves and dooku might know obiwan's strategy also so this has to be close

Dooku took out Obi-Wan in ROTS very fast without much effert. And Sidious wanted Anakin because Dooku by the time of ROTJ he would be around 90-100 and Anakin would be in his 40s.

I dont think you got my point about him being young but that doesnt matter. sidious did not actually know anakin was the chosen one. If he did he wouldn't exactly choose him for his apprentice would he. And Faunus has got the jist of this quite a bit more than you nai foll but you did make some good points aswell.

How do you know Sidious' didn't know he was the Chosen One? Anakin probably told him. There also(I don't believe it) is some rumor going around that Plaugeuis created Anakin, therefor Sidious would know about Anakin being the Chosen One. You know what I just thought, what were the qualifications for becoming the Chosen One? Back on topic. The Sith had a legend/prophecy that was the same as the Jedi one. It said that there would be a Chosen One, the Sith called him the Sith'ari, that would destroy the Sith. Sidious stopped Anakin by having him turn to the Dark Side. I think all of this point's to Sidious knowing Anakin was the Chosen One.

How would Sidious NOT know Anakin was the Chosen One? It was common knowledge for everyone.

ok anakin was the chosen one, i agree. But only the jedi masters on the council knew and not even anakin knew himself (its not like the jedi would tell him they would think it would go to his head), it was not common knowledge. Plaegius did create him but he still did not know he was the chosen one, he probably created him because he thought he could be the greatest dark jedi ever due to his count of midchlorians.
