Dooku in all 3. Easily.

VERY easily.

spite, "old" Obi Wan is no match for Dooku

Lord Lucien Lets all love Lain

Frig, young Obi-Wan couldn't take Dooku.

mattatom UNSC's finest.

Kenobi becomes more powerful than he could possibly imagine

kenobi was 20 years younger than Dooku. It makes absolutely no sense.

Kenobi was out of practice and weaker in the Force?

truejedi Senior Member

blah on that.

Galan007 |Quantum Observer|

Yeah I doubt ANH Obi was weaker in the force. He was likely stronger, in fact.

*thinking of how fast Ben went 'force ghost' after Vader killed him.*

One technique does not amount to increased combat ability with the Force.

Just a stupid inconsistency is all. If anything, Kenobi should have been stronger. 20 years of nothing to do but train? and 60 was NEVER old before. Heck, wasn't mace almost 60?

Stated in the book Star Wars: Death Star.

that's still why I am saying, blah on that. It just doesn't fit. He was out of practice? What the heck else had he had to do? yeah its canon, but so is Jacen's third hand.

The hand can be overlooked as an editorial mistake. Kenobi becoming weaker can be accepted. Just because some characters spent their elder years becoming more powerful, does not mean Kenobi did.

Problem is we have no concrete source saying what Obi Wan did, we do know he was learning under Qui Gon. Maybe he just spent all the time their practicing his Krayt Dragon call and ofcourse learning how to retain his form after death.

Mace was born in 72 B.B.Y. and died in 19 B.B.Y.

I the Last of the Jedi series Obi Wan mentions that he did not trust using the force, so his powers were fading. (well something like that)

Doesn't matter. Dooku has shown a wide variety of offensive and defensive combat Force manuevers. Kenobi has doen nothing. A lightsaber duel is also a piece of cake for him as well.

Dooku handled Kenobi in his prime with ease.
