FOR GENERAL KENOBI

Your point? So what if he is a cyborg, look at Grievous.
What do you mean "your point", you dolt? If you'd have taken the time to read through my post, maybe you would know what the point was. But, instead you chose the route of having your head stuck up your ass.
Nice. I expect a retort to go something like "z0mg i r teh pseudo-1ntellect, ad h0minem!!!//ONEELEVEN!!". The point, anyways, as I will explain to you has two parts to it:
1. That his dueling skill isn't on par with Anakin's, which was the opposite of what Kadesh asserted. By his implications in his post and former posts in other threads, Vader is greater than Anakin in dueling skill. That was what I was originally appealing to.
Which leads into...
2. Then I said that in regards to a way to interpret what Lucas said about "true Jedi fighting" in the Original Trilogy, and how it (the answer) would still be correct.
Essentially, the point for simpletons was: it's reason to suspect his skills went down, and that further propels the reason for the answer provided by starwars.com still holding its value.
"Look at Grievous", your point? Oh? None? When I stated Vader was a cyborg, I later elaborated on what handicaps that gives him. Thanks for [not] reading, though.
In addition to that, I was roughly mirroring George Lucas' words by titling him as such, which is quite a step up from how he actually phrases it: "a crippled half droid, half man".
So what if he considered slow by Jedi standards, he was able to take on 8 Jedi even though he just got into a heavy black suit.
You should also note that he only eliminates four by himself, and they don't all attack him in conjuncture. He also got: his arm lopped off, half of his mask shredded, pummeled with scraps, nearly beaten to death. Do you have any proof any of those Jedi were anything above Zett Jukassa's skill (save for Tsui Choi, who only attacked with a blade once, IIRC)?
Wait. Don't answer, seeing as you'd be wasting more of my time since all of that is irrelevant to what my original point was.
You are wrong. I guess by your logic, Qui-Gon Jinn > Darth Vader. Smart!
It's not "by my logic", because your asinine statement has nothing to do with what I said. I never implied that anyone who is seemingly faster than Vader will beat him, as you seem to suggest.
Do tell, what does Qui-Gon have to do with the fact that Anakin's dueling skills in the PT were greater than in the OT (and that it's irrelevant whether it's due to lack of technology or not)? Oops, look like someone (you) made an ass out of themselves!
Not so smart. Furthermore, I'll note that just because someone is slow, it doesn't necessarily mean said someone is incapable of contending with faster opponents. For what you said to be correct, I would have to agree to the opposite. So unlucky.
I should make note that I never stated, or said anything vaguely indicating Tyranus will win; I merely pointed out the flaws in Kadesh's post, and later Godzilla's. That's just for future reference, not directed towards you or any more feeble minded posts you may or may not make, just a general statement.
Let me tell you something Dooku fanboys.
I really hope you're not calling me a "Dooku fanboy", because that would be incorrect on two separate levels. Three, actually, but I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that you're not including me (even though you gave no fancy title to "Dooku fanboys"😉.
In any case, calling someone a "fanboy" doesn't help your arguments whatsoever. In these cases, it only makes you look like an idiot given that the opposition would be quite justified in labelling you a fanboy.
