I thin he was faking, I just noticed during the fight that at one point Palp has his saber pointed at Mace who turns toward him with his hands up, he could have killed him right there if he wanted to.

whos a newbie?...Man I was in line for ANH in the 70s when it forst came out and the 7 oclock show was sold out ...Im an original!...But its okay if you were talking OBi-Wan
No he wasn't. If you watch the movie and you know anything about fighting you can see that Mace was in complete control the entire fight while Sidious his moves imitated that of a guy who has just learned how to carry a sword.
Mace was in control Sidious lost from Mace fairly in the lightsaber duel, Mace even Kicked the lightsaber out of his hands. KICKED. Sidious lost and crawled back before Anakin even arrived, and don't tell me he knew he was coming bullshit. What would you be focusing on when fighting Mace, Anakin coming or one of the greatest Jedi duellists? The second...
Now when Mace got that lightning reflected in his face, he could have been faking then.. But not enough to make him win. I agree that he was faking to make Anakin kill Mace, he was playing weaker then he was. He could still hold on, he could shoot more lightning and handle more. But he wasn't faking his lose, he would have lost would it have not been for Anakin. It would have just taken a lot longer.
he was faking the whole time not knowing when anakin was going to walk in...if anakin walked in in the middle of the fight then he would of saw sid losing...
he didnt even need to try against windu because he sucked so bad...so he could think about 2 things at once...remember the fight with yoda he was going crazy with the force and lightning ...he could of just done that kinda of lighsber fighting when he was vs yoda or use the force in the middle of the fight.... he let him kick it out but he force caught it later....sid could of wuped him
So he holds his lightsaber like an idiot when he fights Yoda too, whats his reason then?
Seriously you are seeing things that are not there, why not let all four Jedi live then? Would that not have been better for Anakin, he could have killed some of them himself when he would join up with Anakin.
And again I have to ask this, Sidious realised he was no match for Yoda (please do not debate that in this thread) so he decided to run away. Mace was seen as second only to Yoda but he was close, why would Sidious who basically gave Mace a chance to kill him run away from Yoda?
If you can beat somebody slightly weaker with ease at any time even when you don't have your lightsaber anymore and you are on the ground screaming in pain, would you run from somebody slightly stronger?
I wouldn't I would stand around and kill the little piggy Sidious didn't. I don't care what you say, but he wasn't faking the entire fight. He looked scared at a few points, why would he be that if he was winning. Mace looked in control while Sidious was struggling at some points in the fight. His face says enough. Why would he act that if Anakin isn't even there yet.
he knew anakin was coming (maybe not by the force but he knew before the fight even started) but he didnt know when so he did bad the whole fight just to make sure
