Your final point is one of the most important. Anyone who's ever had exposure to real combat will tell you outright that there is a considerable difference in the combat ability between someone who is fighting as a matter of course versus someone who is fighting with the bare intent to kill. Dominating a fight before it even starts by preventing the other party from reaching your level commitment to coming out on top is a considerable advantage.

On Mustafar, Obi-Wan only managed to "defeat" Anakin because he successfully baited him into a disadvantageous situation - playing to Anakin's blind ego caused by his unfamiliarity with the dark side (buying into his own hype). In the Kenobi show, Obi-Wan flat-out defeats Vader and could easily have killed him. It's nonsensical that he would choose not to deliver a mercy killing and save the galaxy from the future atrocities that Vader will likely commit. Vader even gave Obi-Wan an easy out by telling him that "Anakin" had already been killed and that only "Vader" remained.

He's also the only opponent that vader has past trauma and the only duelist besides ahsoka that he has a past connection to.

As Luke also shows us in rotj, where vader clearly just isn't in the head space to murder someone.

Very well told and informative.

"As perhaps the most fearsome jedi butcher of his era..." Well with all due respect, thats not saying much, the inquisitors are pretty inept and Sidious sits around and does politicking all day. To me Vader benefited immensely from the fact that all the Jedi in the era were slack with their lightsaber skills. Not saying he isn't great, just that its not exactly like he went up against some of the greatest duelists in galactic history as Vader. Also its worth noting all his muscles that you would use in a duel are robotic now, and far stronger than any biological limbs.

@circa1919

I have to disagree with this, while yes there were Padawans who escaped, there were also Jedi Masters. Some in the comics were blade masters amongst the order. The thing to keep in mind is that Vader's fighting style goes beyond physicality. His suit, his size, his approach, his reputation, all inspired fear in his opponents, preventing his Jedi opponents from centering themselves. Here was a massive, black monolith coming towards you inexorably, with inhuman strength in body and the Force. Often times, Vader was the one hunting down the big targets, while the Inquisitorius tracked down removers and small fry

Djem So relies on athletic ability, strength and durability of the one who uses this form. And Anakin was a perfect user; he was young, very athletic and had a strong Force connection, which is useful when boosting strength and speed. As an offensive technique, it was perfect for the Sith, since they rely on rage imbued offense. Plus Vader made numerous adjustments in his style, resulting in him probably being the best Djem so user ever. If his armor wasn't limiting his movements, I think prime Vader would be in top 5 duelists in the Entire Star Wars universe.

I’m wondering did Obi-Wan ever truly tap into his full potential over the years. While he was extremely skilled and one of the best Jedi Masters ever in my opinion, on paper he never seemed like the most powerful as far as his connection to the force but he was extremely skilled and mastered has fighting style & that’s what got him out of a lot of tough situations but this fight with Vader seemed very different. He put the beat down on Vader which not many if any can say they have ever really landed a scratch on Vader. Obi wan went from literally running scared & barely able to save a little girl from falling off a building to being able to slam Darth Vader around like he was a rag doll. You can say what you want about Obi-Wan being a blindspot for Anakin and while that’s true Obi-wan is still beyond skilled & seemed to have tapped into the force like I’ve never seen. That was truly a badass moment. Obi-wan seemed to use Darth Vader’s fighting style against him & could have killed him for a second time & decided to spare his life once again.

Loved the last episode

To get a sense of the style, we can refer to the weapon, and Vader's lightsaber is the most brutal design I've ever seen. I don't think any Jedi I've seen could wield that thing with even two hands. And Vader can, and does, wield that monster in one hand with the speed and precision necessary to deflect blasters. Imagine the power that monster lightsaber must put out; it could easily cut into a Star Destroyer hull. And this, I think, is the philosophy behind Vader's style as a duelist: decisive, overpowering heavy attacks that are designed to collapse enemies where they are strongest, through brute force, strength of will, and a retinue of force attacks designed to crush opponents, either directly with force chokes and force grips, or through the environment by propelling crushing objects towards the opponents.

@@flackjayden3873 If you mean how a blade retracts when turned off and emerges when turned on, then you are right. However, what Lazy is talking about is a completely separate scenario. Vader's lightsaber is a dual-phase lightsaber, meaning that it utilizes 2 kyber crystals instead of 1 crystal like a standard lightsaber uses. The saber also has complex circuitry that allows for him to switch between which crystal is being used - allowing for the already ignited blade to alter its length (without turning it off) mid-duels. Basically, Vader can start a duel with his saber in phase 1 and having a shorter blade and then switch to phase 2 and gain more reach with the blade and possibly kill his confused opponent. In essence, think of his lightsaber as being like a double sided lightsaber, but standard sized and with only one blade coming out of it. If you want another example, Exar Kun's lightsaber is another multi-phase lightsaber, which had controls on it for altering the blade length from 0.5m (1 ft 7.9 in) to 1.5m (4 ft 11.1 in) - albeit his is a lot more complicated due to it also being able to change blade intensity and it was a double bladed lightsaber in a single bladed lightsaber's hilt.

bro the goat

The scary thing about the way he fights he that’s he’s well versed in other forms enough to hold hold his own until he tires you out, where he then hammers you with his signature form, which is at that point almost literally defenseless when your energy is waning. If he started with that form at the very beginning of the fight, most opponents would be ready for that and it would be an unnecessary waste of energy. Now it’s effectiveness on Obi Wans style is interesting, cuz it’s almost like Kenobi tailor made it to directly counter Anakin’s strategy. Play along when impenetrable defense and goad the opponent into thinking you’re done, so when they strike harder as Anakin eventually will, you quickly strike back leaving them stunned. So far in current canon, there are only three of the army of individuals who’ve been able to counter Vader’s technique, that being Obi Wan, and Ashoka and Luke, both of whom literally just used Vader’s own style against him, especially Luke in Return of the Jedi.

Pretty sure Anakin was focused on the Shien variant of Form V during Attack of the Clones, but by Revenge of the Sith used the Djem So variant, but incorporated Ataru foot work into his form. I don’t think he ever primarily used Ataru.

Said it once and ill say it again. I love your videos mate. I dont watch them all but thats just a time issue for me. Stay golden.

When Obi wan gave Vader his recent arse kicking it proves how much of the apprentice was still In Anakin even after burying Obi wan he still referred to him as Master. Only once Vader confessed to "destroying Anakin" he truly became Darth Vader.

Thats the reason that the imperial march was not used in the series until Vader speak with Palpatine. In that moment Anakin was fully consumed and Vader falls completely to the dark side.

Man that Vader is awesome.

Say what one will about the new material, but one thing I am happy to say is that they are finally giving us the Vader we all knew and feared in our hearts as children.

It makes one wonder what would have happened if Mace Windu trained Anakin in form 7 of Vaa'pad. Showing him how to control his emotions and retain them bottled up until they were *REQUIRED* to be used. Would Anakin turn to the dark side faster? Or would he have been able to stay a Jedi, even for just a little longer.

Everybody forgets that /General Kenobi/ uses a mainly defensive form, form 3, often tiring out opponents and/or looking for openings. Kenobi also has more experience than most Jedi when it comes to fighting other force users. Darth Vader may be used to clapping Jedi who aren't confident against such an opponent, but Kenobi capitalizes on that to defeat Vader on at least two occasions. While Vader has an advantage of experience over other Jedi, Kenobi is more experienced in fighting combatants who are themselves experienced. Vader is essentially weak to Kenobi in the same way other Jedi are weak to Vader. Where other Jedi might be purely on the defensive against such a combatant, Kenobi is so used to fighting on the defensive that he is not overwhelmed by that task, allowing him enough clarity to find weaknesses, as fleeting as they may be, to use against Vader, such as brief moments to damage life support components. This is very similar, though not to the same extent, as Windu finding shatterpoints in his opponents. Side note if you haven't read Shatterpoint stop reading this comment and go read it. One of the best books written for Star Wars.

We ain't gonna skip past the fact that my man did a thing with the thumbnail. Making us remember vader's first true lightsaber (and a good hint of future events aka asoka series)!

That Cape is unstoppable

1:50 the last thing count dooku ever saw.

It’s a unique style that embodies his efforts to restructure his style around the limits of his body. In previous days his style was hyper aggressive and dexterous. Combining onrushing assault with high velocity approaches. Building from a familiar strength based foundation his style emphasises quality of motion, absent the speed and mobility of the past his focus is on leveraging his strength into a balance of brute aggression and stoic defence with comparatively minimal strikes per second. Every blow, parry and counter has to be as effective and strong as he can make it to compensate for his reduced mobility and striking speed. To that effort the economy of motion afforded by Form 2 helps bridge the passivity of Form 3 with the brutality of Form 5. Interestingly it’s almost in direct contrast to Grievous, an opponent he never fought yet held some similarities. Where Vader was forced to refine the quality of his motion through his degraded speed, every strike was either precise or it was devastating. Grievous instead ramped up on it. Every strike was dangerous but the danger really lay in how swiftly, dextrously and unexpectedly the next dozen attacks were in every second of engagement. Where Vader was measured by necessity, Grievous fought unfettered by necessity. Vader had the luxury (so to speak) of the Force to overwhelm and protect him, Grievous did not, forcing his enemy into utter defence to defend himself from his major disadvantage. You could almost call it reckless, yet it was perhaps the only correct option in head-to-head confrontation.

Sweet in the first ten comments. Keep up the great content.

Vader’s “unstoppable” light saber form. Obi-Wan: hold my beer

Hes more machine than man, twisted and evil.

My sister summarized Vader's lightsaber form in one sentence: "keep spamming the attack button" Yeah, I know, it's sloppy, but she's 4.

>"Vader couldn't raise his hands above shoulders" >Rebels: 3:28

While they didn't have a lot of Sith they dueled the Jedi did still practice against each other and while this wasn't a "to the death fight" at least in most cases. They did learn and maintain their Lightsaber fighting skills this way. Anakin's training duel against Obi Wan showed a good bit about this imo. It also showed just how strong Anakin was even when he was young his blows were devastating Obi Wan. Funny thing is I don't think he was very experienced with form 5 at that point either.

“Remember, Hesitation is Defeat.”

im not sure how the cybernetics work in sw but i find it cool whenever i remember this guy basically doesnt even have hands but is duel wielding a lightsaber and the force better than most any jedi before or since

This is very interesting. But where do you learn about all this stuff?

As a real life practitioner of both Eastern & Western martial arts, eventually long term you will see the “distilled” basics that all the dozens of different specialized styles are based on. The very basic techniques are renamed over and over in different languages but again are the same techniques. Master these and draw on your personal talents (whether Vader’s superhuman cybernetic strength, or Yoda’s centuries of practice) and you will be nigh unbeaten

I want that they DO "what if" series on VADER.

It's interesting. I'm still learning the distinction between his style as Anakin and as Vader. Vader's armor can make him unpredictable whereas Anakin could be exposed in his emotions.

He was also just physically stronger than 90% of Jedi

Makashi, soresu and Djem so. Those are my top 3 lightsaber forms.

Can you tell me the music you used as ambience? It fits theese videos so well I would like to listen to it

And crazy to think that he became just as much of a master in Soresu as Obi-Wan.

The part about disorienting the opponent to forget their training. Palps used the force scream when the Jedi committed treason and windu was the only one who kept his wits. Perhaps palpatine rubbed some of that onto vader

"Unstoppable".. Well, Kenobi wants a word with that.

Anakin: uses form V with the speed and acrobatics of form VI, and spinning because it’s a good trick ;) Darth Vader: uses form V with the lack of movement of form II

Shower thought here: Darth Vader and Batman are similar in the way that they use methods to make their opponent(s) feel insignificant and doubtful in their own abilities causing dread and fear to build thus making them more susceptible to defeat 🤔

It's actually ironic how young Anakin focused his training on lightsaber combat and duels, later using it to hunt jedi.

in battlefront 2 they did a good job of showing vaders lightsaber forms

I believed he always started with Djem So. I only found out about the jedi's lightsaber forms wayyyy late

"Even being able to lift his arms above his head" The Emperor's clone: "I think you'll find his arms quite operational."

Vader is clearly much more powerful than Obi Wan but styles make fights and Obi Wan just knows him inside out. I think they could have wrote the script a it better however. It's one thing Obi Wan being able to out fox Vader but here he kind of overpowered him in the end which was weird
