1. There is no concession... I'm not going to go over something you already know.. Next, answer my question?
Concession accepted then. You have no idea how Vapaad works or what it will do.

2. Actually beating him in sparring was narration.. there was no specifics about how the sparring went.. which is in stark contrasts to a great number of fights we do see in the movies or in the novels. Not to mention sparring are of the same quality as real fights. We've been over this before.
Concession accepted again. You have no choice but to throw out canon facts of Dooku beating Mace, because you have nothing canonically stating Mace ever beating Dooku.
If Mace was so superior to Dooku in Fencing, then he should have no excuse for losing to him in their sparring matches. Fact.

3. BEFORE he went into the zone.. Anakin's strikes were damaging Dooku's force reserves just fending them off. This was before Kenobi was even taken out. You need to read the novel again. This was explained because of the Kinectic Energy (you even referenced this) used by powerful two handed strikes from strong people can tax somebody only using one arm to defend against them. This was even stated in the essential guide for Dooku's form. Stop acting like you have no idea about this when it was even stated in the novel you claim to have read.
LOL at me reading the novel again. I doubt you've ever read it yourself, just heard what others have said about it. As someone who has the novel I'll quote you exactly what it says about Djem So vs Makashi:
And only then did Dooku understand that he'd been suckered.
Skywalker's Shien ready-stance had been a ruse, as had his Ataro gymnastics; the boy was a Djem So stylist, and as fine a one as Dooku had ever seen.
Upto this point is proof that Dooku was previously underestimating Skywalker and handling him all wrong which is what leads to the next comment.
His own elegant Makashi simply did not generate the kinetic power to meet Djem So head-to-head. Especially not while also defending against a second attacker.
He can't meet him HEAD TO HEAD. I.e. He can't block head on. As I've already explained Makashi is a one handed style, which is the reason it lacks the kinetic energy generated by 2 handed power strikes. What made that more difficult was fighting off A SECOND ATTACKER.
But if you honestly think the creators of a purely fencing form made the form vulnerable to anyone who uses 2 hands, then you need to stop talking right now, because you obviously have no sense at all if that's what you think.
As I've explained before Makashi isn't about Blocking Head to Head, it's about Redirecting, Slanting away Footwork, Giving ground, precision feints and parries.
Fact is it's the best fencing form. If you don't accept this, then your ignoring canon.

4. I'm waiting for what Dooku is superior to Sids at.. Should I make a thread that aks others what Dooku is superior at when compared to Sids? Are you claiming Sids isn't dooku superior in virtually every way?
Your the one claiming Sidious is superior to Dooku IN EVERY POSSIBLE WAY Lol, so it's for you to prove how you know this. Because all we know for sure is that Sidious would defeat Dooku in an all out fight.
But since your asking, yes I believe Dooku's fencing SKILL, and saber defending SKLL probably is superior to Sidious's as he is THE Master of the best Fencing form.

5. Concession accepted they have very close TK feats.. This will not win the fight for Dooku is the point.
What concession? I said Dooku's superior. Any you know he is. You need to stop crying about it.

6. Anakin was a level 8 when he beat Dooku. It was stated WHEN HE TURNED TO THE DS AND BECAME A SITH HE BECAME A LEVEL 9. It wasn't stated when he got angry. He specifically notes that he became a 9 when he became a sith. So Dooku lost to a level 8. Mace is a level 9. Common sense DP.. use it.
Give me the exact quote which states that ONLY SITH Anakin was a Level 9, whilst JEDI Anakin was a Level 8 the whole time he fought.
I have the Making of Revenge of the Sith in front of me so have the EXACT quote on the matter. But I want you to provide evidence of the Bullshit you've claimed here.
Skywalker giving into the darkside is what boosts his power and makes him a level 9. Nothing about Sith Anakin and Jedi Anakin are mentioned. And proof Anakin was giving into the Dark Side as he was fighting Dooku. This is from the script while Kenobi is fighting alongside him:
ANAKIN is stronger as he becomes angry.
And this before he defeats Dooku:
Anakin attacks COUNT DOOKU with a new ferociousness.
Oh and then there's this little fact LOL:
ANAKIN cuts off COUNT DOOKU's head.
You want common sense. Then answer this with any sort of common sense. Dooku fought off 2 level 8's together, and then almost stomped them both together. So how could he Possibly be a level 8 from that demonstration?
Now I'm not against the idea of him being a very High level 8, or a low level 9. I'm just calling you out on your bullshit claim that Sith Anakin was a greater duelist than Zone Anakin and actually a whole level above him LOL
Your arguments are getting so stupid it's actually ridiculous. So Dooku fights off 2 level 8's, but then lose to one so he's obviously an 8. But then Kenobi's superior to a 9 because he beat a 9, so clearly Kenobi is a 10, even though he's stated to be an 8. LOL Your getting really really stupid at this point KT, and you clearly have no Star Wars sources yourself and are just talking out of your ass.

7. He won't stalemate him because Mace will be feeding off of Dooku's DS energies... While dooku won't be feeding on anything. So no it won't end in a stalemate. The best you can hope for is a long drawn out fight with near equals i nsabers... but mace eventually finding Dooku's shatterpoint or simply wearing him down with his powerful strikes.
Show me where it states Mace "feeds from a Darksier's mere presence."
Doesn't work like that at all. Mace can deflect Powerful and Aggressive Dark Side attacks back to it's source with the same amount of power, while not giving into the dark side himself.
Since Dooku will most likely be defending himself through Footwork, Redirecting Mace's blows, Giving ground, simultaneous TK attacks, and since Mace and Dooku are peers in terms of force power anyway, then no Mace has no guaranteed win over Dooku at all.
And prove Shatterpoint is some kind of guaranteed win on a neutral setting and over a defensive form! If it was then Mace never would have lost any of those sparring matches.

8. Yoda's attacks aren't more powerful than Mace's LOL.. WHERE THE HECK DID YOU GET THAT IDEA. Yoda is more powerful in the force.. but he's not stronger than Mace.. that is beyond idiotic to even suggest such a thing. Mace is vastly stronger than yoda and his species is SPECIFICALLY noted for their strength. yoda is a half pint.. he could never be as strong as a prime Mace.. maybe when mace was 10.. but that's about it. Mace's blows will tax Dooku's defense and everytually overcome them.
So I take it you've never heard of Force Enhanced Strength then?
There's no guarantee at all of Mace overpowering Dooku's defenses. Especially not when Dooku uses his free hand to constantly Force push Mace, and telekinetically throw stuff at him.
