Episode 5 of Star Wars The Acolyte brought into canon something that was considered a very controversial lightsaber combat form.

1:02 - Apologies, I meant to have said The Empire Stikes Back. I was watching Episode III today lol
- Charlie

Jedi: "Such a tactic is dishonorable!"
Sith: "If you do that, you're gay."

[royalgoat]

Jedi: "Dishonor."
Sith: "No balls."

[BjornWithASlash]

“We haven’t seen it in canon or live action yet”
shows it being used in ahsoka

[strpe]

Sith: weak
Jedi: dishonorable
Pragmatists: parry this, lmao

[RaisinHook]

"you can't its dishonorable, its cowardly"

"yeah well your dead and I'm not so I win"

[jasondiend]

Should we point out he had to stab Jeckie 3 times. Cause we all have learned stabbing someone once is meaningless. Unless you Qui Gon.

Trakata was brought into canon back when Jedi: Fallen Order came out. Cal Kestis used it against his fight with the Ninth Sister

[charlessaint]

"You can't do that! It's dishonorable!"
"Dishonor is a point of view."

Bro, adjust clip sound to your sound, in 0:18 i couldnt hear anything, when i turned sound up then you blew like a jet.

[dragonfire]

0:33 I believe Cal Kestis did a similar thing when he battled Second Sister, turning his lightsaber off to catch her off guard then force pushing her and turning his lightsaber back on so it's not this move wasn't already used anyway.

Vader didn’t fight Luke in Revenge of the Sith

[LizardMan]

It’s been used a few times in canon including the scene in ahsoka referenced above and it was done by Cal Kestis towards the end of Jedi Fallen Order

[Yells_at_Cloud]

Well I hope the Force Police doesn’t notice the unsportsmanlike conduct of murderers.

[jacoblundgren]

they ignore a lot of lore but this was actually nice, it's a real Star Wars thing that haven't seen much usage

[TheAnimatedWonders]

This reminds me of the parody clips of Anakin pranking Obi Wan with this during their training sessions :')

[tacitmurky]

Controversial or not: if it works - it works

[StrWrsNrd_]

Qimir: turns blade on/off
Me watching: HE HAS NO BALLSSSS

[PuppyPlimby]

"he says this"

*plays the clip as quietly as possible*

[hermanturnip]

It’s small facts like this that makes Stars Wars lore so strangely engrossing.
