Mace > Dooku Confirmed?

Well, the fallout here has been.... interesting.

That said, Mace being the last living practitioner of Vaapad, a form Dooku has no real knowledge of, does give him a significant edge when dueling an equally refined but far older adversary like Dooku.

Wut now? Dooku knows Vaapad, this is confirmed lol.

Well, Dooku was familiar with Vaapad when he fought with Sora Bulq.

Very true. I also don't see why Mace suddenly being ahead of Jedi!Dooku means that he's better by RotS, but hey... Mace supporters need something 😖hrugs:

It doesn't. I'm just putting the quote up.

One could argue that they both improved after TPM, which is fact, but of course, not necessarily in the same quantity. Which is why in Y: DR, Yoda claims that Mace was only an equal of Dooku, not better.

DarthDuelist9 just brought up a point on Comic Vine - there's a way of looking at this. The quote kind of implies that Dooku, as a Jedi, was the best duelist ever in the history of the Order, bar Yoda and Mace. Ergo, he's the third best duelist, Mace is second, and Yoda was the best ever.

Actually, sources only say that they're "considered" equals. And people "consider" Anoon Bondara to be unparalleled, "consider" Cin Drallig to be unparalleled, etc.

Regardless, your point is fair.

The very quote I posted in the OP of this thread, lol.

Well we know that can't be true because Anakin beat him, right?

Depends on what it means in the context of "swords master".

'K then xD

Ah good point.

Well the point still stands, Maces loop kinda gives him an edge.

These Retcons confuse me tbh

A loop that only worked once in his life, in a hightened state of being against the very essence of the Dark Side...

I feel Sidious is more an exception, not the rule.
