Anyway it's safe to say that the OP quote is more of an indication of Anakin's massive growth in power and strength as opposed to Dooku being weak.

It's a pretty solid response proving that Anakin was getting stronger through the duel.

Also when Dooku blocks both Kenobi and Skywalker he had leverage and positioning on his side.

@Azronger I am speaking purely in terms of Canon. What are your gifs supposed to prove? Everyone and their mother pushes each other back in a blade lock (the best example being Ahsoka pushing back Grievous).

It's pretty clear that Anakin was overpowering Dooku at the end of the fight

Force and Destiny is a Legends source. It's content involving how Legends works applies specifically about legends within the Legends community itself, not the overall Star Wars multiverse.

So, you agree? confused

Yeah why not. I wasn't paying close enough attention when I skimmed through.

But that completely ignores the fact that later on in the fight, Kenobi and Anakin were evenly matched in a contest of strength.

Indeed. Dookie bladelocking him thus doesn't prove much.

That GIF was when Anakin was enraged, lol.

Dooku holding the edge over Anakin in their earlier saberlock and matching Yoda in a saberlock in AotC whilst diverting strength to collapse the pillar is pretty damn good. He also overpowers Ventress in a saberlock in TCW repeatedly.

In fairness, Dooku does use opportunity/leverage etc. in most of his strength feats. Not the ones I mentioned above, though.

There's also their fight on Naboo where Anakin seemed physically stronger, even though Dooku was fighting defensively.

Yep. One can conclude that both of them grew stronger, though. Still, I'm not too sure how to it's possible that Dooku's growth is in excess of Anakin's, which is the only conclusion that can be drawn from comparing S4 to RotS. But I guess that's just TCW.

Nah, Dooku is just outmatched by Anakin in a 1v1.
