Nick gillard interview

There is a new interview with Nick Gillard in which he explains the forms of lightsaber combat. It seems he's mixing forms and levels quite a bit.

Mace is an 8 bordering on 9?

Fisto a 7? Interesting.

Yeah this doesn't really make any sense, I'm assuming he's talking about their skill level rather than lightsaber form?

That's obviously what he's talking about. Appreciate the Anakin>Mace confirmation.

Probably 8 normally, and 9 in RotS vs Palpatine.

Something I found interesting is how 7 is generally regarded as the peak of lightsaber combat minus "enlightened" characters.

It really stresses these main characters truly are outliers in the Star Wars continuity with their blade-work capabilities.

The fact that he confirms that there's an enormous difference between levels and compares it to the Richter scale (where each magnitude is 30 times greater than the last) gives a scope of how good Anakin/Palpatine/Yoda are, yeah.

Well Anakin using the dark side > standard Mace to be precise.

Also I appreciate the Kenobi > Fisto confirmation, and Yoda > Mace (reconfirmation).

Yep including Maul and Kenobi.

It's more than his opinion. It's the levels he set to choreograph the movie fights.

An opinion would be when someone like Freddie Prince Junior says he thinks Ahsoka would win against Maul or Kenobi in a fight.

I agree Gillard isn't the main rule and his word is law and stuff but he was still responsible for helping to create lightsaber styles and levels as we know them today.

I am not saying his opinion is shit but it isn't a fact either.
