Luke was significantly horrid in ESB, and only gave Vader a run for his money because Vader was hardly even trying...Meanwhile, in ROTJ, Vader is conflicted and not wanting to kill his son. Distracted and conflicted, Luke gets his opening and strikes Vader down.
In any case, ROTJ Luke and ROTS Anakin will lose to Tyranus, methinks. That, or Luke will die before Anakin wins.
I can always count on Rex to say the right thing. . .
If Anakin loses, it's partly because Luke gets taken out quickly. Luke is maybe TPM Obi's level, at complete best.
Now, Anakin managed to surprise Dooku in his anger and kill him. Would this happen to the Count twice? Maybe not. Anakin may be able to counter his lightning with his saber...
Anakin is a variable. At times he may be the most powerful and greatest duelist in the galaxy but at others he doesn't know left from right. In about 5 years he could have wtfpwned any Jedi ever. But as of RotS, even though he did plainly outduel Dooku... can he do it again?

The difference is this time the Count waont be under the impression Sids will help him. Luke is not a factor, Dooku pwns hil like he did Kenobi. Then it will be a close battle between Skywalker and Dooku but Anakin got lucky in ROTS. This time Dooku will win.
RotJ Luke would never stand a chance to Dooku, maybe he would surprise Dooku by slashing wild and Dooku would go WTF?!! Anakin could probably use it to his advantage that Dooku first has to beat the annoying Luke brat away.
Anyway Anakin overcomes Dooku again, whether it is because he is more in tune with the force guiding him or with his sheer power lightsaber style.
Dooku was a great jedi master but a noob sith.
Did he ever used his anger anyway? Phahaha!! 😆
No, overlord Dooku wasnt a noob. He has done more things than almost every other sith e.g starting the clone wars. And whats to say he doesnt use his anger in a battle? He is an elegant fighter and a politician - meaning he can easily hide his emotions from people. I hope everyone can agree that Luke isnt a factor in this battle. Dooku will wtf pwn him just like he did Kenobi. But this time the Count will spend less time taunting and more time fighting Anakin. Also Anakin might not get as lucky this time. And Sids wont be there spurring Anakin on. And the Count wont be under the impression Sids will help. With these factors out of the way Dooku has a very good chance at victory.

Anakin was prepared at force lightning abilities and fought with a much cooler head. Obi Wan is just a turd, leave him out of it, his own apprentice had to beat his master's master.RotJ Luke would never stand a chance to Dooku, maybe he would surprise Dooku by slashing wild and Dooku would go WTF?!!

If you knew anything. . .you would know that in the script it is said clearly that Dooku is told to stand down and turn Skywalker to the darkside. Look at the way Dooku talks to him in the saberlock. This is an exact quote from the scrtipt. . .
Palpatine: Good, Anakin good. Kill him. . .kill him now. . .
Anakin: I shouldn't. He is an unarmed prisoner. . .
Dooku: But my lord. . .you promised me amnesty!
Palpatine: Do it!

Anakin may have the sense to block the lightning but, a force grasp is unblockable. . .

Well, whether you need stronger telekenisis to block it is premature. Maybe you just need to be close in force abilities? Dooku managed to force choke Kenobi, but Anakin did this as well. It's just that Anakin get too close and got kicked.
Good point, beside the fact that Dooku used the force and Skywalker used his bare hands.

Hm? That's not being a fanboy. Dooku picked up Kenobi from a few feet away with the force, choked him, and chucked him across the room. Anakin failed to do this on Mustafar. Dooku's is more impressive, with good reason!
It's nice to see curtousy on these lousy boards for once. . .
