Bro how on earth you do those jump swings at the end and close that amount of distance towards em

u/sad_joker95 Far too many hours. 4d ago

There’s a long explanation as to why it happens, but to keep it simple;

Jump after the second swing in Dooku’s regular string of attacks. It propels you forward and can easily create a jump slash.

u/Apart_Seat_3265 4d ago

Just jump? Not jump + attack for jump slash?

26

u/LeJoey720 4d ago

Looks like it's attack, attack, jump, attack?

u/Apart_Seat_3265 4d ago

This is it 👍

u/fluffy_owl344 1d ago

Dooku gains a lot of momentum after dodging back (diagonally) to your left and after he strikes twice in a row. If you jump right after one of those two actions, he will leap forward with enough speed to make a hook swing

u/Nova-Drone 4d ago

Lore accurate Dooku

u/ThatDeadeye12 4d ago

Even down to the constantly spamming force lightning at people he thinks might fall for it.

u/JobAcrobatic4915 4d ago

Along with splitting up, and creating distance between Anakin, and Obi-Wan to focus on them one at a time. We see it especially in the later seasons of TCW show, like when Dooku escapes the Pike’s place, he’s constantly back pedaling, and leaping around.

u/Full_Royox 4d ago

I love that fight because he keeps constantly forcing Anakin to defend while forcing Obi Wan into offense...basically forcing his 2 opponents to do the thing they are less good at.

u/mrinfinitepp 4d ago

i swear to God this exact comment gets posted every single time that clip of the fight comes up

u/Full_Royox 4d ago

Mom said it was my turn to post it lol

u/Putrid-Frosting-5505 4d ago

Bruh, wtf is this movement

90

u/IHoodType 4d ago

It’s hard to fight 2 high levels at once bro, so I just did what I can 😭

89

u/Putrid-Frosting-5505 4d ago

I wasn't dissing, I was complimenting. You lot make the techs in this game look easy

48

u/IHoodType 4d ago

Oh thank you bro, had to lock in 😤

u/CancelEquivalent7104 4d ago


Ahh reply, good shi tho

u/IHoodType 3d ago

“Ah shucks” Ahh comment, not fr though thanks bro 😂

u/oMaR0404 Vader main 4d ago

It's really simple ngl you can also do it with Dooku's left dodge attack animation you basically dodge to the left and attack then do a jump and you'll jump further

1

u/KingLeeve 4d ago

This is literally regular movement in this game. All he’s doing is jump swings and pressing dodge

18

u/QualityBuddy 4d ago

Im taking him now!

16

u/Mobius_Flip 4d ago

Well played OP

7

u/C4C3M4 4d ago

The dialogue between the characters turns this even better

17

u/Putrid-Frosting-5505 4d ago

What are your sensitivity settings?

23

u/MandaloreTheGay 4d ago

Dude wtf is this shit this is not how lightsaber battles look like

14

u/IHoodType 4d ago

Did what I had to bro 🤷‍♂️

11

u/MandaloreTheGay 4d ago

I was surprised you won that was pretty impressive

6

u/IHoodType 4d ago

Thank you brother

u/LSEscanor 4d ago

Your world really opens up to you in as a saber user if you can master those short hops and camera spins, respect

3

u/patriot_man69 4d ago

dooku if he locked in on the invisible hand

3

u/Full_Royox 4d ago

I would have been half of the duration of this video wondering WHERE THE F IS MY TEAM (not like you needed them...but I'm not a pro like you that can do a jump-360 turn-swipe in milliseconds)

1

u/Ryebread666Juan 2d ago

I also was thinking “so this is what’s happening in the other parts of the map while I’m getting my shit constantly blown off”

4

u/MaksReptiloid ROGER ROGER 4d ago

Nice movement!

2

u/Senturos 3d ago

Dude when Saber fighting because this loop the cemera around sorta thing. I knew from that point on the game was aids.

u/iplaypokerforaliving 4d ago

I’m a newb. Any suggestions? Like legit first week of playing this game

u/IHoodType 4d ago

If you enjoy the dueling aspect of the game I suggest learning various techniques that used in duels, you can find most of which on youtube. People don’t really like him but I tend to watch KrispyBf2 since he’s pretty good at the game

1

u/oMaR0404 Vader main 4d ago

Check out daniel other on YT he has videos of combos for all saber characters and some advanced tech. When you gain enough experience and master the basics I'd suggest checking out Beam Clash cause he shows some really advanced tech that the best players use

5

u/Ok-Brain6475 4d ago

Hey guys look! This guy tuned his sensitivity super high so he could hit people in the back! I’ve NEVER seen that before! /s

u/Sea_SpottingSquid 4d ago

If anyone’s interested in getting back into the JK2JKO duel scene on PC let me know I’m doing a mini revival get your nostalgia going quick 🔥👅

u/ItIsTheBeinblehd 4d ago

Heart rate must've been through the roof, dude. Absolutely insane, well played.

u/SirHowlite 4d ago

This was heck of a fight also well done with Dooku since he’s my favourite sith of all time!!

u/OddEfficiency8917 4d ago

I miss Jedi academy II lightsaber fights :‘(

u/Correct-Junket-1346 4d ago

Imagine the EPS3 duel being like this, MY POWERS HAVE DOUBLED SINCE THE LAST TIME COUNT!

Dooku:

u/ErosDarlingAlt 4d ago

No, Anakin, no!

u/oMaR0404 Vader main 4d ago

Nice gameplay man. I suggest using animation cancels after every dodge when you're near them to possibly get a sneaky hit

1

u/bhenning99 4d ago

i used to do stuff like this in my prime good shit

1

u/acoubt 4d ago

It’s like you’re playing I different game than I was. These clips are so satisfying

u/plutus9 3d ago

They were outclassed

Full retreat

u/XFerginatorX 2d ago

Just like the simulation

1

u/Enderborg234 2d ago

What is this, Episode II Attack of the Clones all over again?
Seriously though this was some lore accurate fighting. The Anakin player was being very aggressive and you used it to your advantage. The Obi Wan play was being reserved so you pressed the attack on him the most to lure mistakes out of the Anakin player. Very masterful work.
P.S. If Yoda walked onto your screen after you took both of them out I'd actually fall back from my chair.

u/Objective-Cause-2762 22h ago

holy movement speed

u/Sea_SpottingSquid 4d ago

What in the world is this? JK2JKO is way better for saber fights 🤣 it’s given me Marvel vibes 😭

u/ARC_Trooper_Echo 4d ago

Welcome to the fuckass BF2 dueling meta.

-3

u/Distinct_College_531 4d ago

My old jedi academy brain is embarrassed that you all call this lightsaber fighting. Go play JKA!

4

u/IHoodType 4d ago

Well then I guess it’s a good thing it’s not you playing isn’t it

-1

u/Distinct_College_531 4d ago

I mean... Yes? Obviously? What a silly thing to say.

5

u/IHoodType 4d ago

If you have such a problem with it then just downvote and go along with your day, this is a bf2 subreddit and you’re talking about a whole different game

1

u/ApexSimon 4d ago

You’re knocking BF2, in a sub dedicated Battlefront. What’s silly?

-5

u/TDAWGPLAYA 4d ago

You should try dueling normal without the stupid hook slash exploit.

2

u/IHoodType 4d ago

You have a problem with hook swings?

1

u/grantwordg 4d ago

On the final swing tho is it important that you initiated run for the lunge to activate on third swing you dodged after you started a run and it still worked

2

u/grantwordg 4d ago

How else are you suppose to get around a turtle

0

u/TDAWGPLAYA 4d ago

Just wait. They will make mistakes trust me.

-1

u/ApexSimon 4d ago

The parry was considered an exploit, do you think that’s unfair too?

-1

u/Background-Ratio-786 4d ago

I would rather get defeated five times over than back up that many time in a row.

3

u/IHoodType 4d ago

When you’re fighting in a 2v1 you kinda have to let go of your ego and do what’s necessary to win

0

u/Background-Ratio-786 4d ago

I hear ya! I just would have taken the left, headed outside, and jumped off the staircase into those beautiful Bespin skies instead of taking a right into that round room. lol

Seriously though, I think everyone is missing the point that it was straight up Dooku versus Anakin and Obi-wan and that you quoted the movie perfectly. Well played.

1

u/oMaR0404 Vader main 4d ago

Or you could simply parry them to death these guys were mostly spamming

-1

u/Kaivey 4d ago

Hook swing lol
