He said "it doesn't sound like". He didn't say "THIS IS DEFINITIVE PROOF OF HIS INTENT."
And I take it you have a quote which gives Sidious's true intent during that fight, since you so quickly jumped to call Arhael an Idiot.
Originally posted by chilled monkeyI knew about Ebola and how terrible it was for a few years now and I know I made at least 1-2 Ebola jokes since learning about it. How does it make it any worse to joke about now that its close? Its been in existence for a while now its not like it JUST started existing. But seeing as how most Americans are pretty damn closed minded it might as well have just started existing, as far as they care anyways.
Okay, I know freedom of speech, no one has the right to tell others how to live their lives and such, but don't you think that's an incredibly distasteful thing to say in view of current events?
Originally posted by DARTH POWERNo, but I do have the fight itself, where Sidious whupped the horny brothers like he was a drunken sailor and they were baby seals.

Who said they were a threat (in direct combat)?
And Dooku's not above Maul+Opress combined.

True, but it's more about individual levels than cumulative threat when it comes down to whether you're outclassed.
Maul + Savage make for a pretty cool mirror to Anakin and Obi-Wan actually, so Dooku could likely do decently against them.

I mean why would he even need to put in effort.
Because he can't do anything without any effort.
It's like Dooku vs Ventress.
Can Ventress provide any sort of real competition to Dooku on her own? No. He says it to her "Your no match for me without your monster.."
Meaning your no competition for me. There's no way you can win against me. There's no way you can even stalemate me.
Yet none of that means Dooku is going to Speed blitz Ventress. She still puts up a fight before being defeated. And that's despite the fact that his Force powers vastly outstrip hers.

Of course not, but Sidious absolutely trashed Dooku. They aren't comparable in power at all. The gap is so large it's not even funny.
Don't tell me you think Sidious would Blitz Dooku as well now?

That's true. I think in a 2 vs 1, if the solo act is the best combatant on the field he always has at least a half decent chance of coming out the winner.
Originally posted by DARTH POWERYes, it was indeed a "violent physical struggle (On the part of Maul and Savage, anyway) between opponents", as was Sidious' fight against the B-Team.
Ah so there was a fight. Unlike the against the B-Team. Good 👆
Not that I mentioned the B-Team anywhere in my post. Nor did Arhael.
I understand your need to white knight your boyfriend, but at least do so effectively.

To be fair to the B-Team. Agen Fisto and Saesee had no idea they were facing someone as powerful as Yoda. If they did I think they may have lasted longer when Palpatine went all quick silver on them

Speaking of Ebola, there's some chick from Liberia that came back to the U.S a couple days ago and she's thought to have the virus.
Even better, she's apparently situated less then half and hour's drive from where I live. Comfy.

Yeah except 1 was a 7 second blitz, the other lasted a good couple of minutes.

Why don't you read the title of the thread your commenting on before you come in here being an A Hole.

Which means literally nothing without some kind of insight to Palpatine's mindset during the duel.
Asouka Tano dueled 4-saber wielding Grievous for 40 seconds in a stand-up fight before fleeing.
Shaak Ti dueled 2-saber wielding Grievous for 10 seconds in a stand-up fight before being disarmed.
You would claim that this is somehow a metric of Tano's ability compared to Shaak Ti's, which is nonsensical.
