@@JonTabuzoBalethat Can be argued to be true but i do belive palpatine threw the fight and wanted to lose in order to further manipulate Anakin which worked
Well most people remember Legends where the opposite is true and Palpatine was holding back so when Anakin walked in it looked like he was the victim. As opposed to canon where he is a victim about to die by Windu’s missing hand
It's crazy how people debate this This was literally the most pure battle outcome in prequels after Dooku vs Obi+Anakin where Dooku destroyed them fair and square Windu literally was shown superior and people still oppose him cause his character is unlikeable, office Windu is so underrated Also W edit, welcome back
People debate about this because they don’t know the difference between canon in Legends. In the Novel, it was revealed Sidious disarmed him which is part of Legends so Mace takes this one
Though some may say that Windu was the more powerful and skilled fighter in this moment, Palpatine’s swift and easy defeats of Maul and Mother Talzin, despite both fighters giving Mace a hard time on separate occasions, are some of many canon feats of Darth Sidious proving otherwise.
W edit force power to mace or equal dozens of sources say sidious was trying to destroy mace with the lightning and mace was able to match up to that kinda of power and before people say mace won cuz of vaapad in canon vaapad is different it doesn't redirect dark side power or draw power from a darksider it allows for mace to draw on his own inner darkness and his anger and aggression too something positive giving him a amp
Fax also ! Maces force power is > yodas too as the vaapad amp from himself using the dark side allowed him to surpass yoda too and be on par with sidious
every thing was right in this short you made. palpatine does win force powers and abilities but when it comes to dueling it's game over for palpatine. lucky for windu he had vappad if he didn't he would of been long dead
I just cant stop lauthing in this scene it was sapposed to be kinda scary and intimidating but faces which they both make aspecially Palpatine in this scene are just so Goofy and silly 😂
sidious wins low diff. in a canon book on revenge of the sith it is said that sidious purposely made himself appear weak to arouse anakin's anger. secondly it is said that as Mace Windu's vapad technique uses the anger of others to make him stronger, when Anakin came home full of anger and rage this gave Windu the advantage. Dark Sidious is the most underrated character of Star Wars.
@@Yello_25After that George Lucas: Approves of the novelization of Revenge of the Sith, which states that Sidious held back After this (very recently), Nick Gillard, in an interview with Star Wars Theory, laughingly states that Sidious could have smeared Windu in the office. After this, Ian McDiarmid personally Star Wars Theory (alas, only from his words, without recording) says that Sidious was holding back After this, the canon comic Son of Dathomir comes out in which Windu, with the help of Secura, could not take Maul After this, another canonical comic Star Wars Adventure #10 comes out in which Windu, enraged, fights Dooku, who provokes the Jedi and taunts him in every possible way, and as a result, Windu only forced Dooku to retreat. It becomes clear that even if they wanted, Sidious and Dooku would turn Windu into a barbecue, and Maul would give Windu at least a serious fight. The funny thing is that you made up a quote (or took it out of context, I’m sorry I don’t remember) Lucas said that Windu won the “ligthsaber part” but then Sidious pretended that he needed Anakin’s help
For anyone wondering why mace would win and not palpatine is because maces saber form is different from many Jedi and palpatine does not like his saber form because it is better than all the other forms and can beat any saber user or most saber users who doesn’t know this form the reason palpatine lost to windu in ep 3 is because mace was able to out class palpatine in saber combat and yes u would think force lightning but it is very hard to hit windu with since he can easily block lightning attacks with his saber form palpatine could probably use other force attacks but windu is a smart fighter so he could easily roll palpatine
