If not applicable, I fail to see why mentioning it is important.
It demonstrates her power in the force.
Let's use common sense here. Unless Dooku magically knows such things ala Sidious' I don't see how it's an important quote.
Or he knows who the greatest swordsmen of the Order he belonged to. Why is this so hard to believe?
Brood didn't even know what Starkiller switching styles meant.
She was a padawan. What do you expect? She's no Starkiller.

[B]Power not useable, thus irrelevant.
Not everything everyone says in a book is true, and even if it is, being above Grievous is an accolade nearly all Jedi have (wasn't it Drallig in the quote?)Yes they changed the quote just to give Shaak Ti another accolade.

That's the point.
And Yoda and Mace did nothing but sparr for centuries and decades and yet they are the most celebrated swordsman in the Order's history. Yoda being greater than any of the wartime masters of the Old Republic.

That's... not sure what to say about that.
You're just furthering my point. If you use your blade a lot, logically you'd become better at using it. If you don't use it a lot, guess what, you become but a shadow of your former self (Ben Kenobi?) [/B]
Ben Kenobi is a red herring. Completely unrelated. Shaak Ti spent her 20 years taming Rancor, training the Felucians in war, and sparring with Marris Brood. Her blade work is clearly not rusty giving that she whooped Starkiller.

It's not a red herring and certainly not unrelated. Ben fought A'Sharad Hett and studied the force under Qui-Gon Jinn while watching over Luke. That's essentially the same thing Shaak Ti did.

Not sure what hiding has to do with anything. Ti's bladework might not have gotten worse, but there's no proof it got better.

That's what I pointed out before: Brood's training doesn't seem so complex.Maris noticed the shift in his fighting style but, having only been trained in Jedi methods, failed to understand what it meant.

She was not used to fighting a Sith. That's all that quote proves.
