In the Anakin and Kenobi vs Dooku fights, Kenobi has never posed a real threat honestly. Anakin was Dooku's main focus and Obi-Wan seems to be an afterthought
In a team, they get taken by people like Savage Opress and Asajj Ventress, they don't lose, but its a struggle.
Yet when they're alone, they can outfence and outduel those same people and, not only that, embarrass those same people in a duel.

Taken down by a pissed off Savage who just force choked Ventress and Dooku together. Ventress pushes them hard whether they are together or not it makes little difference. Dooku has beaten Obi-Wan both alone and with company.
It doesn't mean he beats him every time, and yeah, he beat him... in AOTC, and he still had a hard time, and as I said, Kenobi almost killed him at one point.
And no, every time when Kenobi and Ventress fight alone, he embarrasses her
Also, later on, Kenobi was taking on Savage and Maul at the same time.
Yeah, as far as Savage ragdolling them goes, they were off-guard, Savage is nowhere near them in the force.
Yes, being off-guard does excuse getting ragdolled by inferior opponents, as you see Kanan and Ezra TK Vader when he's off-guard.
Curb stomping Ventress? No way. She contended with Anakin and Obi-Wan in sabers, showed better tactical ingenuity and used the environment better. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pzNbjhYANYQ
Curb stomping Ventress? No. Winning yes, but Ventress is horribly unrefined at this point and she still disarmed him.

He was winning without a saber, Kenobi was toying with her the entire time. 😬
Thanks for the evidence in Kenobi's favor.
The Kenobi vs Maul and Savage fight. Maul and Savage were at a clear disadvantage here, in a confined space, both using elaborate styles which require a large amount of room Pull off certain movesets. Kenobi was bloodlusted as well :/ it was honestly nothing special, it's cool to see him use two sabers but he ended up getting ragdolled by Maul anyway
Originally posted by chingchangwallaKenobi isn't good in confined spaces either, Soresu is a defensive style, which wouldn't work well in a confined space.

And even if you reckon Obi-Wan smoked Ventress, he was still under slight stress. Late TCW Ventress got stomped by Dooku in an even more powerful way. He stripped her of her sabers and choked her out. Kenobi just had her on the back foot.
"An even more powerful way".
English? Sure...
And Kenobi did the same thing to her...
When tf has Kenobi ever tried to choke anyone???...
What situation has Kenobi been in where he would need to choke Ventress?
He's not a sith, dude.
