Ah yes. Let's ignore the half dozen times Kenobi has effortlessly destroyed Ventress in duels in favor of that one solitary time where she defeated him.

Darth Power at his finest.

Though even then, losing to Ventress is still not as laem as getting chopped in half by a padawan. Maul dies in seconds once again to the man with greater feats.

You'll be hard pressed to find me even one time (outside the clone war movie) that Kenobi "effortlessly" destroyed Ventress.

And Even in the CW movie Ventress disarmed Kenobi first, and had a chance to kill him, but waited a couple seconds due to PIS! And this also when she was still too weak to register as a threat in Sidious's eyes yet.

But I like how you guys have shifted the conversation from Obi-Wan's apparent feat over Count Dooku to me low-balling Obi-Wan.

Blax and Nephthys at their finest 😆

The difference being that Kenbi didn't get his ass kicked against said reputable opponents like Maul did against Palpatine.

But that's not what the Dark One said. excellent

Did I say he did? Thats what I said.

You didn't say that's just what you said. excellent

I'd say it was implied. 😐

rots obi wan ftw. he barely beat him as a padawan, but as a jedi master it would be a walk in the park.

Superior showings, has fought much more reputable characters, has a track record that isn't restricted purely to defeating two featless wonders then losing to a Padawan, etc.

You mean Qui-Gon, who was Council-material if he wasn't such a rogue, and Anoon Bondara, who was "Second to none" in saber combat? Those two featless wonders?

Technical skill doesn't equal real combat ability.

If he was second to none he wouldn't have gotten tooled in battle.

True 😐

But as RB said, Darth Sidious.

Who utterly defeated him.

After almost being killed. Yes, he defeated him, but was still almost overwhelmed by a Darth Maul who was starved, beaten, and clinging to life.

He was briefly taken aback. He still owned him hard enoug that he was able to trace his outline with his saber to such a perfect degree that if Maul had twitched hed be dead. That isn't so much getting through his guard as it is holding it down and going Blue Velvet on its ass*.

*literally. 😉
