Why no one has ever done that in Star Wars?
>>200563354Because it's forbidden
>>200563354You would die before your stroke fell.
It takes 1-2 seconds for a lightsaber to fully activate. In a sword duel between peak physical condition borderline psychic warriors this would be a death sentence. Any other belief is retarded historical revision on par with asking "Why don't they just use droids to hyperspace ram ships?" Because the only thing that matters world building wise are rules written by people who aren't retards.
>>200563354Literally the Sith i. The Acolyte did this in the latest episode
>>200563506Webm or didn't happen.
>>200563354its like fake karate. it only looks like itll work because the other guy is letting him do it.
>>200563460that's not true. We see throughout the franchise sabers as activating much faster.
>>200563354>block lightsaber with your lightsaber>turn yours off to do your cheeky move>the lightsaber you were blocking is now free to pushed into your chest before you can turn yours back onIt's retarded
>>200563655New revisions to add tension, but still they always take a full second to shut off if not 2.
maybe because the opponent wouldn't just freeze and become statue like in your example. he'd just kill you before you get to reactivate your light dildo.pretty sure they can kinda mind read the moves or some shit anyway. not really a star wars nerd
>>200563354Because most jedi aren't black
>>200563704Are we watching the same clip? The guy blocking would be swinging at nothing.
>>200563354Only n*ggers can be so deceitful
>>200563354they did and it's called Tràkata
>>200563536It’s all over here, one is when he kills Keen’s character. Turns his little blade on and off three times.
Just use two lolor a dick gun
Superpower by 100 BBY
>>200563655Have you tried watching the only part of the franchise that matters when it comes to world building? And not the made up shit pumped out years later designed to appeal to tasteless retards?
>>200563979What are they hitting each other with that it’s not even doing damage?
>>200564027Light sabers.
>>200563613Pretty much. People have a really stupid idea of how sword fighting is just hitting swords against each other. They'd actually try to hit the person they're fighting. At best you could achieve a mutual kill with that strategy.
>>200564027They are using Force Body Shield, allows them to be able to touch lightsaber and don't get burnt, still does bludgeoning damage though
>>200563655Post them for reference
>>200563354Oh look it’s this thread again
>>200564187>>200563460https://youtu.be/Dba-FPUz5SU?si=plskt8BD6OQme27u&t=67turns out ESB is revisionism lol
>>200564400He's using Jedi Lightsaber Quick Ignition Force Power though, the lighsaber ignites slowly normally
>>200563354this is assuming someone goes to block your attack instead of parrying it or attacking themselves. if they go to parry/attack then you'll get absolutely demolished and most star wars fights I've see were mostly parrying/attacking, if their sabers are locked then they're both pushing towards each other too. makes zero sense to be defensive with a lightsaber
>>200563460>"Why don't they just use droids to hyperspace ram ships?"No, seriously. Why don't they?

>>200563354it's not possible
https://youtu.be/iHjthe3LBQg?t=61
>>200564027They're too weak to hit with enough force to do damage.
>>200564497The dialogue is funny, but the premise is even more retarded than OP's.
you guys realise none of this stuff is real, just make up your own rules
>>200564600>The dialogue is funnyReally? I couldn't tell
>>200563354A realistic answer would be that "blocking" doesn't really work that way; any blocking movement is 70% towards being an actual attack, so if an opponent deactivated their saber the blocking Jedi wouldn't really have to react, the motion of their saber would just continue into the opponent.In a lightsaber fight your only defense is your lightsaber, so turning it off briefly is like a high risk low reward tactic.
>>200564639i make the rule that you kill yourself immediately
>>200564639NOOOOOO BUT DA HECKIN LORE!! DA LORE IS WHY WOMEN BAD!!
>>200563354because that only considers the other party is fighting defensively and not with the intent to kill or maimsuppose that instead of trying to guard, the other guy8 swings for your neck instead and you parry it with your lightsaber>ah, now I shall use my off-and-on trick to get a free openi--ACKand off goes your head
>>200564702lol
>>200563354Why didn't he use force snap instead?
>>200563407Relax Legolas. We are just talking
>>200563407>>200563613you can even see how awkward it looks in the gif trying to demo it. It would only work against a legit disabled person
>>200563460The very first time we see a lightsaber it activates instantly
>>200563354The only SW movie or show that brought in trained sword-fighters was Phantom Menace with Ray Park. The rest have just been basically making shit up for stuff that has cool cinematics.
>>200565140the wath? for Empire they actually had a swordmaster both HEMA and Kendo playing Vader
>>200564959I like how he gets his neck snapped and then immediately turns his head the other way.
>>200565484the actor never turned his head. the snap is entirely cgi. 180 million dolars btw
>>200564959Like how his head didn’t turn in such a way that would kill him
>>200563460Was was symbolic of Anakin's dick not working properly anymore after it was burned. In fact his erections are horrifically painful as it stretches the scar tissue.
>>200563354they have force shield or something
>>200563354Because in a duel between two force users, both sides have minor prescience. Like it or not, but the prequels are the most accurate depictions of lightsaber duels.
>>200563354Because it only works in very niche situations. Like if your opponent is 100% expecting you to block his strike and plans to use that bounce-off as momentum for his next strike. Or if your opponent is just a rash idiot with no prescience. Any high tier duelist will just cut your head off if you try to do this.
