Pong Krell: Combative Prowess Discussion

Lets be real. jobber or medicore, GG as of TCW sucks. Be it due to PIS or otherwise.

One might infer that his foes were superior but I mean... All of them?!

Must everyone bring up the Gungan instance without realizing the context? Grevious clearly wasn't trying, which is what led to his downfall there.

Who has Grievous actually defeated without cheating? Ahsoka? I can't remember anyone else. It's pretty sad how badly TCW ****ed Grievous, he could have been so badass.

He beat Depa. 🙂

Oh yeah. 🙂

Too bad all of Grievous's decent feats are in comics and not in TCW.

Tbh I blame the Microseries, I like it well enough. But they clearly used a character, that still hadn't been ironed out(at the time since ROTS came 2 years later) and the people just used what they thought about him. Which is why there's an inconsistency with his characterization.

I mean, he obviously shouldn't have been as OP as he was in OCW, but it isn't too much to ask for Grievous to be capable of beating an injured Eeth Koth without help lol

I feel that complete exaggerated with the whole "you must have surprise on your side" bit.

Yeah, they exaggerated a lot of shit and made him into a buffoon and a complete pussy. Really disappointing.

Eh the blaster hit Koth took didn't really seem to affect him that much though. Personally moreso, I see it as Jedi and The Force just being superior to technology and strength that Grevious has, not that Grevious sucks, he just doesn't have the edge to overcome The Force.

Plus he did kill Jedi, since he has a collection of lightsabers, sure off screen, but I'd wager some were by dueling too.

It's actually more impressive that Grevious is able to do what he can against Jedi at all, since they are the greatest blade wielders in general in a galaxy which consist of billions and billions of beings and they specifically have been trained since they were pretty much babies in the art of saber fighting.

Dave Filoni ultimately has a very low opinion of Grievous, as I recall he's gone on record saying that "anyone" can beat Grievous is they overcome the unorthodoxy of his form, and that's reflected in the show.

I take Filoni's word with a grain of salt tbh. Since as you said, opinion.

Sure, but my point is that the way he writes Grievous reflects this.

Then another writer will come along. Different interpretations and all that.

I agree, I'm not saying that what Dave is saying is factual, merely that his thinking is perhaps responsible for Grievous' less than impressive portrayal.

Tbh, Dave Filoni has more control over canon Grievous then us.

If he says that Grievous is weak, then its fact, and there's nothing we can do about it.

This is why people with cowboy hats shouldn't be in any kind of authority.
