Doesn't matter. He was obviously skilled with it by AOTC, judging by the fight with Windu, and by ROTS he'd mastered it. Kenobi holding his own against Jango isn't a display of Jango's weakness, but a show of Kenobi's strength. Clearly, his Ataru wasn't enough to take a master of Makashi; and at that point, neither was his Soresu, mainly because he wasn't proficient enough to transform a form designed for redirecting blasters into a practical offensive against a form specifically designed for dueling.

Kenobi wasn't part of my original point, whereas Windu's undisputable superiority has been the cornerstone of my argument. Jango came close to killing both of them. Kenobi won because of Soresu proficiency, which has been explained twice now. Mace won because
Spoiler:.
he found Jango's shatterpoint lol.
On an unrelated note, how do you get your avatar so big? I can't upload anything over 64x pixels, but yours is over 100x. Thanks will be distributed accordingly.
prove it
I think we can agree that Windu > Kenobi.
I think we can agree that Jango nearly killed both of them.
I think we can agree that makes both of them relatively equal.
But that can't be! We just said that Windu > Kenobi!
Somewhere along this road, Kenobi seems to have gained some sort of skill beyond Windu. Is it saber to saber combat? No. Is it saber to blaster combat? Yes. I wonder which form is specifically desgined for that...

considering that it only takes one blaster bolt to kill someone, every time a jedi deflects a blaster bolt and fights a gun wielder, they are nearly killed in the process, because theres no room for error.
not good enough noob

I guess you can apply that to a lightsaber too, eh? Fitso almost killed Sidious. Ventress almost killed Kenobi.

Shoes, Kenobi did worse against Jango than Mace did. So if there was an edge, it was gained by Mace.
They fared equally. Jango lost to both of them. If his ship wasn't available, he would have died.
Thing is, Mace is supposed to be better than Obi-Wan. See what I'm driving at here?
