The battle is a flurry of light as Yoda uses his incredible agility to throw Count Dooku off balance, the Count clearly on the back foot during the fight. For fans of the series, seeing Yoda use a lightsaber almost 20 years after his introduction on Dagoba was a huge moment.
It’s at that point that the Count acknowledges that he’s unable to best Yoda in the ways of the Force, instead insisting on a lightsaber duel. The battle kicks into action when Yoda is able to deflect Dooku’s lightning, something fans had never seen in the series, as a show of how capable the old master still is. Beginning as a test of power between the domineering Count Dooku and the ageing, frail Yoda, the two use their Force abilities to throw parts of the temple at each other.
Perhaps a divisive choice among fans who feel that the fight undermines Yoda’s character somewhat, the fight remains one of the highlights in an otherwise dark chapter in the history of Star Wars.
