Meh, he grips him by the throat in a bladelock, then manhandles him as he's done in the past.
Hardly indicative of a massive improvement, his unpredictable anatomy is not a new feature. And certainly not something that would work on Savage.
EDIT: Almost exactly the same as this, yet he goes for the face instead of the throat, and gloats instead of pressing his advantage.
So Grievous is just... not stupid anymore I guess?
Originally posted by |King Joker|I agree tbh, even though I feel Savage is the better combatant.
Honestly, I don't think Savage would do well in a duel against Grievous, style-wise.
However what I don't see Grievous doing well against is Savage's Force powers, if the going gets tough their is really little stopping Savage pulping his gut sacks.
Originally posted by BeniboyblingI guess it depends if Savage would have the opportunity to disengage and use his Force power when Grievous gets in close and initiates a duel.

Originally posted by |King Joker|Grievous isn't good enough to press him that much tbh; Savage is faster, more agile and maybe even stronger, he's also capable of using the Force in situ.

Originally posted by Stealth MooseHe man-handled Kenobi tho. 😕
Savage TK's Grievous, unless they fight on a metal floor.Seriously, why is this even a contest? He has ****-all for Force defense.

Then Kenobi goes into the zone, as is standard for canon Force Users, and murder him. Savage will probably do something similar here. That's just how canon works.
Plot-induced bursts of "I'm now much better" work well in stories, but aren't objective measuring sticks in theoretical versus battles.
In any case, unless a latter episode of TCW details Grievous becoming Force sensitive and tanking TK from Yoda and I simply missed it, there's no good argument as to why he can't be pushed around like a ragdoll. Additionally, Savage has no reason to obey bushido either; he crushes Grievous' eyes or heart like a grape.

Originally posted by |King Joker|In terms of speed he's blitzed Halsey, swiped Plo Koon's mask, outflanked and disarmed Ventress, and kept pace with Darth Sidious better than the B-Team did.
Stronger? Quite possibly. But how is Savage faster and more agile?
On the other hand we have Grievous overextending against Fisto, being evaded by Ahsoka and Ventress outpacing him.
As far as agility is concerned granted Grievous' anatomy gives him impressive acrobatic ability, but Savage just seems less of a lumbering combatant. For example I don't see Grievous performing like this:
