I do not recognize the Obi Wan series fight

And if we are being honest, the only reason he was able to win the fight in how they choreographed it, is because he actually abandoned that style and went extremely offensive and aggressive. It was such a bad fight with how they designed it (visually it was pretty impressive though), let alone I think it was dumb it happened in the first place.

The logic behind him abandoning his style against Obi-Wan in that instance made sense though. He was full of uncontrolled rage and just wanted him dead above all else. Even the Emperor called him out on it

Seeing Vader fight was amazing. I loved how much faster he was but not rushing or out of control.

No no, Obi Wan abandoned his traditional defensive style in the fight in order to win, it was the only way he could ironically. The second half of the fight after he regains his connection to the force, he abandoned form III and started fighting very offensively and aggressively.

Vader losing his shite made sense.

Those last 2 episodes were awesome.
Was not expecting to see Mauls first encounter with Vader.

I find it funny people are still more active bitching about 10 year old movies that they hate in the other thread than talking about the new stuff that is actually good.

It needed to happen at some point because Maul is absolutely terrified of Vader and we needed true justification as to why. I’m glad it happened to end this season and didn’t have to wait for another one. Really was exquisitely done.

One thing I noticed going back and rewatching it, towards the end of the fight, you see Daki adjust his strategy and get into Obi Wan’s form 3 stance and Vader starts to lose it a bit, he singles him out and just starts hacking him violently, very similar to the choreography of Luke in RotJ. Was phenomenal little touch on both parts.
