![EVERY SINGLE Lightsaber Crystal Explained [Canon + Legends]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/h6yM6ibNl4k/mqdefault.jpg)
Most of the Jedi Council never liked special, they liked mediocrity.
Be humble, don't stand out, CONFORM
Unless that "special" was their idea or happened to suit them nicely either in a given moment or a bit more permanently.
Shamimanamimana Begumashmegum!!
Yes brother it is because the Jedi council couldn't mould , control & dictate to those kinds of Jedi prodigy's on how they wanted them to be that's that.
THE JEDI ORDER DURING THE END OF THE HIGH REPUBLIC ERA ONWARDS IS NOTHING BUT A FAILED ORGANISATION 🤣✅.
it's better to be prepared and not have to use your skills or tools, than to not be prepared and need to use your skills or tools.
FACTS ✅
"Bent like my tool, it is! Hate it, I do!"
-Yoda, regarding Dooku's "curved lightsaber."
You win the internet for that one.
He was wrong
I got to admit that's pretty funny.
The word "hate" being used for himself by Yoda is like lying to all.
Count Dooku. Such a great character. RIP Christopher Lee.
The animated episodes with Dooku and Ventress were so good.
I miss Sir Christopher Lee he will be remembered not only as a great actor but a Good Man
Very complex character, a prime example of "The road to hell is paved with good intentions."
Yoda just hatin' on Dooku's sick-ass drip
Personally I think maybe Yoda saw the darkness in Dooku. But at the same time Yoda like the rest of the Jedi under his watch through the Republic Classic Era. They were blind and irrigate who believe their ancient enemy was gone. Yet they should have learned from their history the Sith always returns in a new shape. So it made sense why Dooku choice form two and the way he constructed his lightsaber. Because even with the Sith in hiding there are still individuals and groups who can still take on a Jedi and as we seen can easily take them down with ease during the Classic Era.
Wow, this was a very informative video on Dooku’s lightsaber and form. I always admired his elegance and precision in combat.
One interesting fact that you didn’t mention is that Dooku’s curved hilt was inspired by the Sith Lord Darth Bane, who also used makashi and a similar design. Dooku learned about Bane from his studies of the Sith and even visited his tomb on Moraband.
Perhaps this was one of the influences that led him to the dark side.
Thanks for sharing this holocron, may the Force be with you!
Yoda: " Jealous of Dooku's cool lightsaber, I am not. Disgusted by the hilt, I shall act"
Fear is part of the path to the dark side of the force, while Form II involves precision.
This video explains exactly why the Sith won in the clone Wars era, if Yoda wasn't be lazy about his investigations he'd realize the Sith were doing a lot more than "creating their own lightsabers."
The curved saber represents two things that are a threat to the Jedi
Uniqueness and affinity to dueling
Padawans are almost expected to build similar sabers to their masters
Dooku building a saber unrelated to Yoda was concerning in a way
In another way, it represents Dooku being Individualistic like Qui-Gon and later Anakin became as they in their own way stove off from Jedi traditions like having unifiom robes and saber designs
The curved blade means it’s built for dueling, as Jedi at that time try to stay away from combat unless necessary
It made it seem Dooku is looking for battle, seeking it by building a blade that gives him an advantage in dueling
Dooku's hilt is special but practical.
Yoda hated it because it is the sole hilt that ever defeated him in a lightsaber duel. On Tatooine. Dooku out-dueled him plain and simple. Not even Sidious could boast that.
If the jedi had listened to Dooku, then Qui-Gonn might still be alive. It's not that far fetched to think that Qui-Gonn's death was the final nail for Dooku to become disillusioned with the order. It was akin to losing your child and you see that brief hint of longing in AOTC. If so, then it can be argued that every atrocity he committed was in the name of his prodigal son in an attempt to either avenge his death or to force the jedi to become better so those sort of things would never happen again.
Even if it was either/or or even both to avenge N force the Order to be an do least what supposed to... apparently "the Road to Hell is paved with Good Intentions" holds true in the SW verse as much as in ours
@@robertagu5533 I absolutely agree. Whatever Dooku's reasons, he was still wrong.
Dooku joining the sith because of Qui-Gon's death never made complete sense to me. If Dooku was so upset by it, why would he join the same people that killed Qui-Gon? I would think the sith would be the last people he'd want anything to do with.
@@alchemist2188 till Palpatine corrupted him and turned him truly a bad guy he thought he was gonna join am either change the galaxy for the better &/or destroy the Sith from within
Yoda still had a full head of hair when Dooku was young? Does that mean that essentially all of his senescence occurred in the last ~3-4% of his life?
Happens to the best of us. My grandpa had a full head of hair until about 70, and by 80 only about half.
That's Yaddle - another council member who's the same species as Yoda, but about half his age.
Dooku killed her to prove to Sidious that he was committed to becoming a Sith.
@@Thuazabi Ah OK. I have seen/heard of Yaddle but it looked like Yoda. Thanks!
lol, so Dooku turned to the dark side just to prove his point.
"You don't believe me that there are still Sith around? Well now there are, jackass!" 😅
Yoda just doesn't want anyone being more powerful than himself
EXACTLY , The jedi council aint nothing but hating , envious & old jealous elders thats all ✅.
Great video!
Curved because Sir Christopher Lee said so
another fun video, thank you!~
Great video Dooku is such an unrated character. Would love to see some more Legends videos from the AU like something about Mara Jade, Corron Horn, Tionne Solsar, Kam Solsar, Talon Karrde etc.
Dooku's lightsaber is a product of art and function.
What if anakin was more focused on dueling like dooku / built saber the same way or even took inspiration from him?
I get the feeling that they BOTH have a point.
Thank the living force for your videos
Yoda was just jealous he couldn't look as cool and elegant wielding a lightsaber.
8:16
PLO Koon was also able to stone wall Yoda through his combination style of form 4 Ataru mixed with form 5 Shien.
The whole idea that Dooku was the only one to know the truth that the Sith were still active and no other Jedi accepted it, directly contradicts the fact the the two senior members of the Jedi Council, the Grand Master and its second in command lieraly knew not only that the Sith still existed but knew how the Banite Sith Order followed the Rule of Two. So he may very well be the only Jedi that deduced by himself this truth, but wasn't the only one to know it and to accept it. Since there are at least two other Jedi that also not only knew with certainty, but know more than him, as they knew how Darth Bane' Sith Order operated. That why Windu and Yoda knew that there were only two Sith, a Master and an Apprentice.
Also it isn't that fencers prefer curved hilt designs, because the Bent French Grip is rarely used for quite a long time, the most used grip is the Pistol Grip for the Foil and Épee, which is neither bent nor straight, Sabres use contoured hits, that conforms to the user's hand co tour, in order to make it easier for it to slide and give more reach to the fencer. Christopher Lee's fencing carrier was mostly on the Sabre, so if his hand had a curved grip, his grip would be curved, as that woule be the contour of his hand, his comment probably was about the fact that he followed the Italian school of fencing, and the initial grip everyone used to learn the basics is almost straight for all three disciplines, with other more contoured grips being introduced later in the fencer's training.
I like the focus on Dooku recently. Feel like he’s such an underrated character…
Dooku perceived the darkness was still present hence his preparation to face it, yet due to the lights ignorance he fell to what he was supposed to face. Overall awesome regal af character
what happened to the younglings who did not make it as Jedi? they had jobs as service to the jedi
Darth JAM
Knowing Yoda's connection to the force I would like to believe that he hated how he could not quite put a finger on why Count Dooku did what he did. Many jedi used a curved hilt in fact in the high republic and even in the clone wars TV series professor Huyang placed it as a liable option to the younglings even inspite of the fact that the jedi were fighting a war against battle droids As we have discussed many times before Yoda sensed things most jedi could not and the bond he forged with Dooku probably did not help either. He also did not like Anakin's lightsaber and most clone wars lightsabers mainly because they were seen primarily as weapons first
I think Dooku was the one who had a point. But no one in the Jedi heard him.
Is it wrong?
Dooku is my favorite character.
I use renditions in most table top games i run.
So if i see a video about him, im gonna listen.
Considering how old Yoda is, how many other padawans did Yoda have?
I'd say that both of them were right in different areas.
I know Qui Gon was a great fighter, but I wonder how much more powerful he would have been if Dooku taught him everything he had learned about combat. Maybe that would have changed the outcome of the Battle of Naboo.
What is the name of the music around 4:00
Will you be posting any videos covering the new season of the bad batch?
Maybe it's just me, but watching these videos it seems like everybody in Star Wars hates everybody else's lightsaber.
Bunch of haters, these Star Wars characters...
Yessss, let the hate flow through you.
Feel like you made this video before
Which lightsaber would you want to have
I was a little disappointed the first time I saw Dooku duel in Episode II. When I saw the unusual shape of the lightsaber handle, I was expecting it to be a "V-shaped" double-bladed saber, like a cooler version of Maul's saber...
There was fault on both sides. Dooku was right in that the Sith were still out in the galaxy and that the Jedi should have trained to fight in melée. However, Yoda was also right in that Dooku was in danger of falling to the Dark Side thanks to his obsession with dueling growing into something similar to how the Sith craved power.
It’s bent cause he left it in his pocket
I feel like you've covered this already. But I could be wrong.
I think so too.
Dooku is my favorite an form 2 is my favorite form but I’ll add form 3&4&5 to my lightsaber an duo weapon with a purple light saber
Made question what the Jedi would have done if the Sith returned with massive numbers like the Old Sith Wars would they have been slaughtered because they were not prepared for saber combat.
8:58 The former.
Day 441 of asking for a part 3 of what if anakin was trained by qui gon
Yoda was just an arrogant snob lol
i think yoda would of been blind to the darkness in dooku. it was mast yaddle that thought something was off in takes of the jedi and paid with her life for following the intuition. i think had yoda not been too prideful and arrogant about the sith not being around:
a) qui gon would not have died against maul
b) dooku probably would not have turned to the dark side had yoda taken him seriously
c) the clone wars probably would not have started if dooku didnt join palpatine leading to yaddle not dying either (my thoughts. doesnt mean its what everyone else is thinking)
Did any jedi or sith ever not hate the lightsaber of someone else? I've seen several of these videos in my feed.
The price is wrong Yoda
Both Yoda and Dooku were right. The sith still lived and the curved hilt was a precursor to the dark side
Yoda: puts 2 and 2 together and thinks Dookoo may be slowly heading towards the Dark Side.
Dookoo: becomes a Sith.
The Internet: Yoda was wrong!
😂
jedi mentality in a nutshell: build a weapon to defend yourself, also, you cant build a weapon that is good at defending yourself
I think at that point in the fictional history it was more like a badge of office.
In the shogun period of Japan a lot of senior Samurai wore blades that were more for show than for function. If you read the Lone Wolf and Cub series they mention repeatedly that Ogami Ittō (the title character) uses a dōtanuki battle sword. It is a "proper" sword. It isn't for show - it is for killing people. I've seen other stuff that explains the swords of high-rank samurai where lighter and the focus was on making them look "pretty".
Kinda similar to the way noblemen in Europe around the same period wore side-swords. There were shorter and thinner and lighter with ornate hilts. They communicated "I am a nobleman so don't mess with me". Lighter swords were both still useful as weapons. But I suppose it would be like comparing the convenience of wearing a pistol side-arm to the lethality of a main battle-rifle like an M16 or an AK-47. The rifles are far less convenient to tote around but far more deadly in a battle.
You heard about that Dooku? He's got a curved sword. A CURVED SWORD.
Yeah, it represents his "turn" to the Dark Side man!
Nice skyrim reference :D
What’s so hilarious is that very few people would actually know what it looks like without seeing Dooku from a dangerously close distance. My bet is that the Jedi put his information on the holonet for bounties or so civilians could report suspicious activity.
My dear friend they have gone to far this time
Dooku is underrated
I actually do wonder if the curved hilt was a hindrance or a liability during the final battle with Anakin, while it was an asset while fighting with one hand and being on the offensive, being on the defensive with 2 handed grip, seems like a liability to me
The hilt is big enough to effectively use it with a two-handed grip. Dooku didn't even use Makashi when defeating Anakin on Geonosis. He used a combined form of Form V and III. Much of it using two-hands.
I love dooku I just believe he had a huge flaw in his master of form 2 and that was age yes dooku is one of the greatest duelist’s in history but his body wouldn’t be able to keep up forever and not practicing other forms like 3 to compensate for his lack of physique later in his life and instead focusing solely on 2 made his potential and survival extremely limited
Dooku was a master of all forms. He used different forms a lot. He used Form III and V on Geonosis as well as II. One does not become a master without mastering all forms. It is only through that mastery that you can learn how to defeat each form.
How did Luke Skywalker get his green lightsabre crystal if, in discanon, you can't make them artificially anymore? Somehow, synthetic crystals are explosive
Dooku was right, the casualties at the Battle of Genosis would have been much lower if the Jedi took their lightsaber combat training more seriously. Yoda also comes out like a huge hypocrite here with how aggressive his Ataru lightsaber combat style is. I don't recall Yoda giving Mace Windu any grief over inventing Vaapaad.
I've seen a lot of commentators pointing out that the Jedi approaching the Clone wars really didn't take their blade-training all that seriously and over-estimated their force powers. That is why so many of them died in the Battle of Geonosis. They over-estimated their powers so much that they brought padawans to that fight!
And we see the same kind of thing in The Acolyte series that is set a century previously. There is a scene where a street urchin is paid to throw a stone at the gate of the local Jedi Temple. The urchin is apprehended by a Jedi. When I watched it the first time I thought he was just servant at the temple because he is overweight and his gait seems awkward (he is dragging the urchin at the same time). It was only when I was watching a youtube analysis that pointed him out that I realised he is a Jedi. He does not look like our mental image of a hardened warrior-monk.
In more ways than one, Yoda failed Dooku. He was wise, yet so close minded at the same time.
Had he actually talked and listened to Dooku instead of consistently arguing, he may have been able to reach and save him from falling to the Dark Side.
Curved Lightsabers and Crossguard Lightsabers are my favourite due to them being specialised for Makashi users.
Could you please do some Videos on SWOTOR Content? Like some Darth Nox Videos.
and yet he lost to a barely trained jedi boy again, oooh wait has that been used twice
hot take, there may have been a time when Yoda was a great Jedi, but by Dooku's era, the Jedi were brainwashed into believing it, and Yoda was an obsolete fool. he held absolute power for longer than almost any of the Jedi of his time lived, and the flaws of the Order and the Jedi who died or fell to darkness during the war can be laid directly at his feet. Dooku would never have fallen to the dark side under Luke, or even in the time of Lord Hoth.
Maybe Dooku needed that carrot 🥕 medicine
And they didn't believe
Qui Gon😳😵 unfreaking believable!!😵💫 Just brushed him off , didn't even send back up with him and obi wan,just in case,so every other jedi wouldn't get wind their was a sith who killed Qui Gon....😰😡,hella with Dooku
Btw dooku was right not to discredit yoda of course dooku had darkness everyone handles emotions and events differently not to mention people can have mental illnesses BUT yoda and the other Jedi could have easily tempered dooku’s rage with understanding perspective and love something the Jedi preach but don’t truly practice only believe they with some very rare exceptions
Yoda (and therfore the Jedi) erred with generalizations rather than specifics to each person. It's the same argument of religion vs personal relationship. Guidelines are great, but you can't generalize every aspect and make a rule for it.
What happened to yodas lightsaber????
In legends Luke found it in Yoda's hut. I *think* he also found manuals on how to create his own lightsabre. But that might have been in Ben's hut.
I don't know if it is stated in new canon. But it is in his possession by the time of The Book of Boba Fett's scene where Luke Skywalker has Grogu choose between becoming a Jedi and returning to the Mandalorian, Din Djarin
The scene is obviously evocative of a similar scene from the Lone Wolf and Cub series where a similarly non-verbal toddler (the titular cub) is presented with a similar choice
"a direct homage to the 1972 samurai film series, The Wolf and the Cub. In a scene crucial to the series, Ogami Ittō (The Lone Wolf) presents Daigoro (his son the cub) with two options: choose the sword and become an assassin like him, or the ball and return to his mother."

how many times can this same video be made
Comment
yoda forever hatin just sayin
He studied a bit too much into combat
NNNNNNOOOOOOO
you've posted this before
Yoda and Dooku were both right and wrong, Yoda did see the darkness in Dooku but he was wrong about the source for it was not the lightsaber that was self inflecting redharring Yoda came to on his own, the true darkness in Dooku is being to driven and Yoda did not help be part more of the Order like he and Obi-wan failed to do with the young Skywalker. Dooku was right to learn form 2 and prefect it but he was wrong not to do the same with other forms for Jedi sould be great with dualing and defending aganst blasters equally.
But Ataru is also a dueling form.
It is, it and Djem So were inveted by Soresu masters to address the lack of offense in that form. They sacrificed defense for offense in Ataru, but got an excellent balance of both with Djem So. Anakin was smart to study Djem So.
@@BladeEdge86 I know. What I'm saying is that it makes no sense for Yoda to criticize Dooku for adopting a dueling form when he is also using a dueling form. And now that I think about it, Yoda was the only Jedi master in The Phantom Menace who was open to the idea that the Sith had returned. So it doesn't make sense that he's telling Dooku that the Sith are gone forever and can't possibly ever come back.
I still don’t get why Dooku turned to the darkside
Your going to help the galaxy by joining an order bent on totalitarian oppression and starting a war with the worst war criminals alive
tbh cal kestis has the best light saber. not only is it a single blade but also a double blade, can be dual wield, cross guard and (if opted) dual wielding lightsaber and blaster
Yoda was wrong......a lot.
Dooku's lightsaber😔 was expensive to own but funding with #TDBank💳... 🌎💘💰
Sup!
🛩🏢🏢
🎉
He can always make deal with #TDBank💳 in paying his fines... 🌎💘💰
😁
This is extremely narrow minded and stupid of Yoda.Honestly.Dooku was completely right to curve his lightsaber.Dooku is such fantastic character! May the Force be with you too
The jedi were an abject failure.
Recycled video.
The why don't more Sith Lords use curved lightsabers?
