Best Duelists in Rebels..

Aside from Sidious and Yoda, who are the best duelists as of the Rebels era?

{edit}
I'm talking technical skill, btw.

Darth Vader, then Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Maul, then Ahsoka Tano.

Wrong!

Ahsoka, Ahsoka and Ahsoka.

When you see the original trilogy, people are not doing flips and acrobatic movements...

/Hums just watching both Luke vs Vader fights, as Luke blatantly does those things..

^ He's talking about incorporating acrobatic movements into the duel itself, as part of ones style of lightsaber combat -- not doing a backflip onto a catwalk.

Luke did that in the ESB fight.

He did a flip over Vader one time. That is a FAR cry from the Republic-era Jedi/Sith that Filoni was using as a comparison in that interview.

One time, still happened. So we did see it in the OT.

Now of course yeah it is far from what we see before, but to say they didn't isn't entirely correct.

But I'm just poking fun at this really heh.

If you're looking to examine Filoni's statement that much, then you'll note he says "flipS"(plural), not "fliP"(singular). Luke did the latter during his fight with Vader in ESB.

So yes, his statement very much holds true. 🙂

Just saw your edit. Cool beans. 👆

He did another flip though in ROTJ! Actually two one in that fight and the Sarlacc scene!

But I'm just poking fun really.

Most technically skilled?

Probably the GI.

Maul -> Obi Wan/ Vader -> Ahsoka
